Raised from the ashes of the former BankOne Tower in downtown Fort Worth, where a devastating tornado hit in 2000, The Vault is located in the same area where the actual bank vault sat, hence the name ­ The Vault. The Vault features seasonally inspired cuisine with classic Mediterranean influences. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, imbued with a sophisticated yet casual elegance. With sumptuous Mediterranean cuisine, wonderful wines, warm European ambiance, the perfect location in The Tower, and the hip, mood-inspiring V Lounge Wine and Martini Bar, The Vault is a very exciting addition to the downtown scene. The space has two floors, with a 4,000-square-foot restaurant on street level and a well-appointed 3,000-square-foot bar beneath it, lined with wine racks, leather sofas, hardwood floors, and a welcoming fireplace. The Vault is the perfect place to wine, dine, and linger.
