Chef Tim Love's Lonesome Dove restaurant is expected to reopen later this month.
The iconic Fort Worth restaurant has been closed since Aug. 20 after a fire damaged the kitchen and part of the dining area.
The fire caused about $30,000 in damage to the restaurant.
Love now plans to reopen the Stockyards landmark on Oct. 24. On Twitter, Love was so sure of the date that he said they are now taking reservations.

The restaurant launched Love's lucrative career which now includes several restaurants including Woodshed Smokehouse, LoveShack and Queenie's Steakhouse.
