ABOUT US

Vance Martin, Owner & Chef
I have been in the restaurant business about 30 years. I opened my first place, Cafe Panacea, in 1988 and relocated to downtown Fort Worth in 1994. Since then I have opened three or four other restaurants in the ‘90’s, done some consulting, was an executive with Super Target for over three years and helped a friend open a franchise restaurant in 2003 and 2004. I opened the doors to Lili's Bistro on May 9, 2007. and am enjoying being back in the business, seeing old friends, making new ones and doing what I love most - providing a great atmosphere, a fun and interesting menu and the best service possible. - VM

Lili Martin
Yes, this is the Lili, short for Liliana, She loves having her own restaurant, and from time to time comes in to meet guests, check on how Daddy's doing in the kitchen, and give the waitstaff a hard time. She celebrated her 4th birthday August 9th to the sounds of our dinner guests singing happy birthday and a candle in the chocolate almond torte to make a wish by. Life is GOOD.
