Known first for their chili but now for their live music
by PershingDallas
Tolbert's has become the place to go on Friday and Saturday nights in Grapevine. They have some great cover bands and a great crowd.
I used to only go there for lunch and didn't even know much about their weekend crowds until recently. At about 9 or 10pm on weekends, the band starts playing and people start dancing.
Basically it seems like they rotate through popular cover bands from a Tom Petty cover band to an Eagles cover band to a Beatles cover band, etc. It is lots of fun.
- Pros: Great cover bands, great location and good food
- Cons: Can be crowded on the weekends

Amazing Chili
by gorangers
Tolberts is an great restaurant. Their chili is definitely what they are famous for even though I would argue some of their other food is equally as good. Their sour cream enchiladas, their tortilla soup, the nachos and their jalapeno poppers are some other favorites.
The restaurant really is the whole package, starting with the area. Historic Main Street in Grapevine is a really unique area. I would describe it as a true and natural town center as opposed to all of the fake generic town centers popping up around the metroplex. Definitely a lot of history on the street and in the buildings and Tolberts is a perfect fit for the type of restaurant to be located there. I could rave more about the restaurant, but I would just say try it and you will be impressed.
- Pros: Good atmosphere, Great location, Amazing Chili
- Cons: There can be a decent wait for a table on weekend nights
