New details about Soy Cowboy, the signature restaurant opening in Loews Arlington hotel

We’re learning more details about the signature restaurant going into the new Loews Arlington Hotel and Convention Center in the city’s entertainment district.

Construction begins in early July on Soy Cowboy, an upscale pan-Asian concept from Texas-based Berg Hospitality.

The restaurant will be nearly 11,000 square feet with construction costs estimated at $6.8 million, according to a filing Tuesday with the Texas Department of Licensing & Regulation.

Soy Cowboy should be complete by mid-February, the filing says.

Soy Cowboy’s menu will feature flavors of China, Korea, Vietnam, Thailand and Japan, including traditional sushi, tempura, Korean and Japanese barbecue, hibachi and an extensive selection of cocktails, wine and sake. Berg Hospitality brought B&B Butchers & Restaurant to Fort Worth in 2018.

The $550 million Loews with nearly 900 rooms is expected to open in early 2024 and is part of the second phase of development in the district that includes Globe Life Field, AT&T Stadium and Texas Live! Luxury apartments are also planned, as well as a National Medal of Honor Museum.

The new hotel will be connected to the existing Live! by Loews hotel by a sky bridge.
