I give the place an A or A+. The only point off I can think to give it is that it was just a bit dark. (I don't like bright, but just an extra lumen or two.)
Brought my camera. Did not bring my flash. (I was kicked out of two restaurants in the last week for using a flash.) I don't blame them and confess to realizing a flash is plenty rude in an evening restaurant. I learned my lesson. So I bumped my ISO up to like a half million and with my 50 1.2 took a handful of pics in the dark.
Little side-note. My wife and I visited with Tom Vandergriff there tonight. (Congressman, Commissioner, Mayor of Arlington for like 87 years, Arlington Colts Football and UTA announcer for many decades) A class act.
Cowtown Diner. I love this place. I will be back.
Not actually diner related, I loved this hot Ford Mustang GT at the bank.

In addition, it is just plain a premium place to eat if you like quiet and nice... like if you are wanting to actually communicate with the person you are eating with. So even if I thought the food was only average, I would eat there.

Here's an interesting tidbit. I visit Driss every morning for a couple of cups of coffee at Casa Blanca (8th and Throckmorton) and I had noticed that the Cowtown Diner neon sign is in the Cowtown Segway space, leaning against a wall. I asked Driss if the Segway folks were going to refurbish the sign and he indicated that indeed they were...and they'll be changing the word "Diner" to "Segway". So, one day, there will be a cool neon Cowtown Segway sign lit up at 8th and Throckmorton. Now, if someone could light up the old Barber's Bookstore sign...

Dave, that sounds great! Downtown needs not to trash its existing neon.
