We had dinner at Oak & Antler while visiting El Paso from Colorado, and let me tell you…read more.. everything was absolutely delicious and fantastic! We ordered the Steak Frites, Brussels sprouts, the burger, cocktails, and finished with the peach cobbler and every single thing was amazing. The food, the ambiance, the service, and the hospitality were all top-notch. Our server was wonderful, but what really made the experience stand out was how welcoming everyone was. The owner stopped by our table to say hello and ask how we were enjoying everything, and even brought us some shots. The chef also came out to check on us and make sure we were enjoying our meal. Those little personal touches made the experience feel so special. We were visiting from Colorado, and honestly, this was probably one of the highlights of our trip! There's just something so enjoyable about great food, good conversation, and meeting wonderful locals along the way. I'm not sure when, or if we'll make it back to El Paso, but I would absolutely come back just to eat here again. If you're in the area, you truly can't go wrong with Oak & Antler!

I had a watermelon, mint and tequila cocktail that was as advertised, "summer in a glass!" The comes a braised short rib and Oregon Pinot Noir - both to die for. The puree under the ribs and pumpkin seeds made all the textures and tastes wonderful. (And shame on me. I was so excited by that plate I forgot to take a picture!!) Nooow add in my server, Solomon, and it's nearly a party! But then... here comes the Chef to check on me, and his name?? FREEDOM!! Just soak that in! This is a can't miss spot if you're in El Paso.

I was looking for something unusual to do while in town and I saw this on Yelp! After a fantastic meal next door at Barrio, I strolled over. It was quiet but the music and the atmosphere were exactly what I needed. The cocktails are creative. The Buena Vista is my favorite. Tequila, grapefruit bitters and soda was refreshing on a warm day and the Freshberry Margarita with blackberries and raspberry hit the spot. This place is casual but it is also a great place to dress up and to have a nice date. The phone booth is where you ring to gain entry.

We definitely enjoyed the ambiance, the service and the entire night!

My husband was thrilled because he has been on a journey with mezcals recently, even so far as buying a book on their history, etc. We are planning to visit Oaxaca later this year. Stay tuned for reviews from there! The owner quickly recognized my husband's enthusiasm and knowledge. He talked with us quite a bit and even shared some photos of his visit to the distillery in the photos. We ordered huaraches carnitas and it was so freaking good!! Warning, their red salsa is the warmer of the two. If you can't handle heat, you may want to skip that one. They have live music quite often and have a nice stage and sound system. We were there at an odd time so it was quiet. I can imagine it's lively at night. We would definitely return if we find ourselves in El Paso again.

Cocktails are uniquely crafted, the ambiance pulls you right in and the bar is probably the best place to be! It's very clean as well! They have a good range of an oyster selection with great pairings, something for everyone at the table! I was so happy to see Crystals hot sauce again! I'm a dirty martini girl and of course I'd recommend blue cheese stuffed olives! The fries were crispy, hot and served as a nice sized portion as a shareable. Customer service is 10/10, very attentive, kind and knowledgeable on the menu items and engagement with guests. I've had the opportunity to visit twice and this will be one of my frequent regular visits while here in El Paso!

We were looking for an interesting place within walking of our hotel for dinner on a Tuesday…read moreevening and saw this pop up on a couple of quality searches. They're known for creatively risky craft cocktails and their thick burgers, so we dove into both, including bacon/cheese burgers and the filthy martini ($18, gin with sardine brine and blue-cheese-stuffed olives!) and the Chupa Mi Chili ($20 Sotol, chili syrup, crema, bitters). She loved the salty/bitter martini (not so much me Lol) and I really liked my Chupa, although about half foamed out of the glass (see vid). The burgers were excellent as were both the roasted veggie and shoestring fries. It was empty when we walked in around 7/7:30 but by 9p it was approaching half full... not bad for a Tuesday night. Ambiance in this tall-ceilinged venue is dark/cozy and staff was fun/friendly.

We had high hopes for this place. Stepping outside of our comfort zone in a city we've never…read morevisited before, we chose The Raegan. We walked in and seated ourselves. Fairly quickly approached with water and menus. The server (who I also think is the manager) begins to tell us about their "craft going on an experience cocktails". We explained we would be ordering dinner and not ordering alcohol. Once that was said, interest in us as customers was completely lost. We then asked if we could modify a burger and were told no. We ordered the burger and a pepperoni flat bread. A little while later, the burger came out but no flatbread. We asked for a ranch for the fries (which they charge for) but we said sure. We were expecting the flatbread was maybe a minor delay but sadly, it never came. We waited and waited and waited and no one acknowledged us. We were starving from traveling but shared a single burger. Finally after at least 15 min... I told the man to scratch the ranch and please make sure we weren't charged for the flatbread. He then realized he done effed up. Basing this on facial expression only considering he offered not a single bit of an apology. Oh but wait, he did. He gave us the employee discount. Gee thanks pal. I left hungry. But whatever. I'll never be back to El Paso. Therefore, I'll never be back here.

Each of us ordered a different entrée, and every dish was amazing. The food was fresh, flavorful, and prepared with care. We especially enjoyed the restaurant's exciting twists on Italian, Asian, and Mexican cuisine. The welcoming, family-friendly atmosphere made the experience even better. We appreciated the positive interaction among the servers, cooks, and manager. Everyone made us feel comfortable and valued. Our server, Javoli E., provided excellent service, and the Old Fashioned he made was on point! Thank you to the entire Twisted Fork team for such an enjoyable experience.

Quiet evening, an hour before closing, and the staff was ready for anything. Pretty venue. The chef welcomed our table. Great specials BTW. Especially Faculty Friday discounts.

Delicate wrapper, crisp finish, chorizo and Italian sausage filling. And yet they were light. Sooooo good. Don't miss the lettuce wraps either. Beef, chicken, kim chi. Yum. We also ordered beef stroganoff (must order dish here), green chile Alfredo, whipped feta burger, and strawberry ginger salad. All are highly recommended. No tipping policy. Staff are paid appropriately. I 100% approve of that. If this place was in Austin or Houston it would have an hour wait for a table. Innovative food, great service, an engaged chef, and a pretty venue. Michelin star worthy if they ever visit EP.

Entering from the far left of the complex, you'll find a food truck behind the walls. And this is what Elephant Ranch is all about. I almost never order quesadillas.

And it was soooo delicious! Beautifully melted pepper jack cheese entertains your taste buds. Spicy green chiles delight your senses. Marinated pork is found in every bite.
