The art of hosting
Heshima is a Fort Worth based restaurant with private chef & dinner experiences. We take you on a journey with a multi-course menu & drink pairings. Learn what inspires the menu, create a local community with those around you, and create memories of a lifetime!
Community
We extend a warm welcome to everyone who steps through our doors, inviting you to experience the heart of our community. At Heshima, our goal is to showcase the art of hosting, creating a sense of home for our guests and weaving you into our vibrant Fort Worth & Dallas community. We want each person to relish not only in conversation, food, and expert drink pairings but also to forge connections with others. Our aim is for everyone to depart into the night, satisfied by our chef-driven dishes and the genuine love we infuse into every dining experience.
Hosting
Our vision is to prioritize creating a unique dining encounter for every patron, no matter the occasion. Gather with diverse individuals from all backgrounds around our table, and join us for a unique dining experience that enhances your culinary journey in the Fort Worth & Dallas area.
Education
At Heshima, every dining encounter becomes an educational journey, allowing you to design custom menus based on memories or recent experiences, turning your time with us into a learning tool for your own hosted friends and dinner parties. We passionately explain and demonstrate why certain wines pair better with certain foods, how different flour affects fresh pasta, and why parsley is an essential part of the dish, not just another decoration.
Our Mission
HESHIMA (he-shi-ma)
Origin: Swahili
Noun: Respect. Honor. Dignity. Community
The concept of being a good host seems to be a dying breed. How many times have you gone to someone's house for dinner, and it felt like little thought went into the food, drinks, and conversation? Or how about going to a restaurant, and you only end up leaving with a hefty check and an un-memorable experience. At HESHIMA, we invite you into an intimate and exclusive dining experience. For us, it isn't just about the food and environment, it's also about community and learning something new, in order to bring back to your own home to showcase to friends. To connect with other people that get just as nerdy about the process of making whiskey, or how the cuisines you grew up aren't anything close to how they are in their respective countries.
