The famed restaurant near the Fort Worth Stockyards has hosted a slew of celebrity visitors over the years, from music legends and movie stars to politicians.

FORT WORTH, Texas — A country music legend made a stop at a famed Tex-Mex spot in North Texas this weekend. 

Country Music Hall of Famer Randy Travis, who will soon return to the road with his original band and guest vocalist James Dupré on the “More Life” Tour, visited Joe T. Garcia’s, a longtime Tex-Mex hotspot near the Fort Worth Stockyards on North Commerce Street. 

“Last night we had the honor of welcoming our friend and legendary country artist, Randy Travis to our family table,” Joe T. Garcia’s shared in a post on social media Monday. “From longtime locals to first-time visitors, there’s always a seat for you here. You never know who you might run into at Joe T’s.”

Travis, who earlier this year announced more dates, including stops in Texas, for the “More Life” Tour, no longer performs vocally himself following the effects of a 2013 stroke, but does appear on stage with his original touring band and Dupré.

“Although Travis does not perform vocally due to the effects of the stroke he survived in 2013, he does appear on stage with his wife, Mary, engaging with fans, interacting with the band, and celebrating the music throughout the show. Dupré and the band perform all of his iconic No. 1 hits, including ‘On the Other Hand,’ ‘Forever and Ever, Amen,’ and ‘Three Wooden Crosses,'” a release posted on Travis’ website reads. “The ‘More Life Tour’ has already captivated fans with its heartfelt tribute to Travis’ incredible career, and now, with even more opportunities to catch the show, country music lovers are in for an extraordinary experience.”

The “More Life” Tour stops at Murphey Performance Hall in San Angelo Oct. 1, Waco Hippodrome Theatre in Waco Oct. 2 and Majestic Theatre in San Antonio Oct. 3.

Early this year, Travis released his latest single “Horses in Heaven,” after releasing his first new music in more than 10 years last year with the help of AI.  

Joe T. Garcia’s, which recently celebrated its 90th anniversary, has served an extensive list of celebrity visitors over the years — everyone from music legends and movie stars to former presidents and other politicians.
