    We enjoy unwinding here with a cocktail when we come to Marfa; even if we're not staying at the hotel. Relaxing environment in a cozy lobby nook makes for a great people watching experience.

    Was in town in Marfa, TX for a music festival with a friend. Time for breakfast, reviews look great! So many people, one person helping everyone for a little while until more help came. He was on it, his service was excellent. Ordered breakfast tacos with a red chili something on the side. Had NM chili with something else. Let me tell you that chili was outstanding! A definite must for breakfast! Full bar! Great staff.

    Virgin bloody Mary

    Drinks, though pricey were decent. Wish the bloody Mary had a little celery flavor, mostly tomato juice. Hubby enjoyed his old fashioned. We came back for breakfast and was disappointed to not see the waffles on the menu that were pictured on their website. So went with the Marfa breakfast: 2 eggs, meat, hash browns, and sourdough toast with butter and strawberry preserves. I didn't not leave a bite of food on my plate. Our 2 year old had the yogurt parfait with granola and pepita's and fruit, he seemed to enjoy it. Americano was great. Would come back again.

    On our first visit to Marfa, we knew we needed to squeeze in a visit to the Saint George. We ended up at the Bar Saint George. This restaurant was one of the few serving thanksgiving lunch.

    Tuna salad sandwich
    Mai L.

    Not many places in Marfa were open around lunch time. We ventured here and sat in a bar like area. Our waitress came over quickly and gave us menus and waters. There was a bunch of sandwiches to choose from but limited menu. I got the tuna salad sandwich with chips. It came out and it was huge! It was definitely the size of two sandwich. It was good but the bread could have been toasted or better. It was a bit dry.

    Cheese pizza
    Mallori B.

    Get a pizza! Skip the French fries and crab cakes. But definitely get a pizza. They were all good! The cheese one is excellent!

    Bar top is dope!

    Get ready to get rickety-wrecked son! The drinks here are bombastic! Dogs are allowed! Food is plenty! So what's the deal with so many bad reviews? I'm guessing tourist expectations of being hand fed grapes from above. /s I checked into my room at the Hotel Saint George after a very long drive in which the Bar was still serving both food and drink. The waitress was very pleasant and got our doggo the bowl and pets he needed after the long day we had. Our food was massive! Perhaps ordering g one item and then deciding how hungry would've been better yet the price to portion ration left amazing value for those looking to indulge. Drinks? Omg these things hit the spot and hard too! They do NOT skimp on the liquor. I travel a lot and this was another score on value. Do not pass up this place!

I really enjoyed setting outside and enjoying a west TX evening. I ordered a green chili cheeseburger and I would rank it in my top 5! The burger had the whole green chili in it vs some place that put just pieces on the burger. The fries were also amazing! The hubby also enjoyed his steak. My only regret is that we didn't have room for dessert. I'm presuming it was good considering we noticed customers coming in just for dessert! Great tasty start to a vacation!

Unfortunately, this establishment did not feel family friendly or kid friendly despite presenting itself that way. After waiting around 10 minutes just for someone in our party to grab menus, we were eventually served water and later had our orders taken. However, the overall attitude and repeated glares from the waitress/bartender, Gary Jean, made the experience uncomfortable and unwelcoming. Good service goes a long way, and basic kindness shouldn't feel like too much to ask. It became clear that receiving decent service was going to be more effort than it should have been, so we decided to leave before our food even arrived. To management: supporting your staff better may help improve the customer experience overall. A little hospitality can make a big difference.

If you have never heard of the movie, that is a lot of their problem. The hotel and restaurant are resting on their laurels from a movie from the 1950s. If you took a date to see Giant when it first came out, you probably need food you can gum. We were here two years ago and had a good experience so we came back and were sorely disappointed. Service was appallingly slow because there was one waitress (who was great) for the entire restaurant and patio. There was one bartender. Very short-staffed. We had drinks and chips and salsa on the patio before moving inside for dinner. Entrees on the menu were chicken and veggie burgers (no beef?) and chicken was out. The other entrees were the pistachio-crusted steak (basically fancy chicken fried steak) and a ribeye. They were out of the pistachio-crusted steak. So, it was a veggie burger or a ribeye. No chicken dishes, no fish, no pasta. A frozen veggie burger or a $45 ribeye. We started with a a charcuterie board which was tasty but not very generous. The ribeyes were served on mashed potatoes and very good, but there was no vegetable, no bread - just steak and potatoes. I don't mind the price of the steak but part of that price is service and if there is one server for an entire restaurant and the patio, the service is not going to be that good, and it wasn't. Drinks were not refilled, dessert wasn't offered (they might have been out!), so it was eat and run. So, staffing issues, inventory management issues and a restaurant that had a number of customers to serve so they should do better. Much better.

Striving for the…read morerefined rustic setting of the hotel, the restaurant's ambience feels more dated than decorative. The staff is friendly, but twice during our dinner the host interrupted our group's conversation with incidental small talk. The host also took photos of our table for the "night manager to see how busy we are". The host did this without asking for permission. Our server was more engaged than intrusive, friendly and helpful. The kitchen and bar were on the slow side, and unfortunately the food/drinks were not exceptional enough to offset the delays. Though remote, Marfa has an eclectic food scene, and there's better options that Jett's.

The waitstaff is terrific, from the friendly bartender (you can purchase almost the entire menu for 1/2 price at the bar!), to the professional waiters. The food choices are diverse and international. I love the dumplings and the bao; they transport you right to China. The glazed shrimp appetizer is to die for, and the pizza, best in Marfa. But the real piece de resistance is the steak, especially ribeye special. It's huge, and cooked just right (I love mine medium rare). Shout out to the ramen, unlike any you've ever had, and the wide variety of drink specials provide a number of whimsical choices that should please every taste bud. The chef here is terrific, as is the service. You can eat here 5 times and never have the same international fare. It's shocking in West Texas to discover a restaurant so accommodating, and the prices mean the entire family can enjoy the experience. Don't miss this incredible restaurant!

We started with the salad, which was a solid opener--fresh, generous portion, and overall enjoyable. Nothing that really stood out, but definitely not a miss. The pizza was... okay. You can tell it's fire oven cooked, which is usually a win, but ours came out a bit too toasty--borderline burnt on one side. It also wasn't cut properly, which made things a little awkward. Some slices weren't cut through at all (had to ask for a knife), and others were uneven--ranging from oversized wedges to tiny slivers. Service was a little scattered, but to be fair, we came in toward the end of the night and our server mentioned it had been a hectic evening. No real complaints there--just felt a bit rushed and disorganized. A couple of downsides: they close at 9:30, which isn't ideal if you're looking for a late-night bite or drink, and there's no room service--you have to head down to order. Overall, it's a convenient spot if you're staying at the hotel and need something easy, but it's not necessarily a destination meal. Convenient? Yes. Notable? Meh.

We started with a cup of Jalapeño and Cilantro Soup. It's a cream based soup. I couldn't detect much of any heat from the Jalapeños and the cilantro was pretty much hidden. Maybe a sprinkling of fresh cilantro on top would have made it more pronounced. It also needed to be served hot. We then got the 14oz Ribeye which came with mashed potatoes & green beans. This was a great plate of food! It came out hot! The person who brought it out waited until we cut into it to see if it was acceptable. We've never had any staff person do that for us before! It was a little under done on one side, but the other was perfect. We almost finished the plate. It was delicious! Lastly, we got the Chocolate Bread Pudding Tamale. It comes wrapped in a corn husk that it is cooked in. You remove it and eat the bread pudding. It was gummy in a good way, as hubby described it. It needed the fresh strawberries & ice cream that came on the plate. We really enjoyed our dinner! Our server, Jordan, was very efficient & made it a nice experience! We probably won't travel this way again, but if we did, we would definitely return!

The inside really does match the aesthetics of the outside. The service was nice and prompt. Our waitress got us our drinks before we ordered. Yes, the menu is through a QR code.

Honestly, it was like any other breakfast sandwich that you would get at some other chain. It's consistent and reliable. You know what you're going to get.

Then tonight I thinks to myself, I can't sleep, I should try that diner again - so I go out there at 1:30a and all the employees are hanging out in the parking lot playing with a car and tell me the diner is closed. Come back in a few hours. If you're driving through Alpine and you want a mediocre burger that isn't going to end up costing you $45, maybe it's worth a stop (it isn't) - but definitely don't go a single mile out of your way for it. They do not care at all and they really want you to know that.
