    If you find yourself at the Too Hot for TABC food truck - odds are you've found yourself at the…read morecharming Chateau Wright Winery. The food truck is conveniently located by the patio where you enjoy your wine. I've visited the winery twice now and both it and the Too Hot for TABC food truck are a permanent stop on the itinerary I plan to Marfa. The food they're serving up over there is legit some of the best I've ever had from a food truck and I'm still thinking about the amazing sandwich I had the last time I was there. It was a daily special but it needs to be a full time item. Hopefully if you're lucky they'll have it for you - prosciutto, brie, and some amazing jams. If you're not lucky, however, the award winning burger is always a delicious choice and the charcuterie board perfectly compliments an afternoon of drinking wine. Don't visit the winery without sampling some of the yummy dishes being served up at Too Hot for TABC!

    Okay so this is off the beaten path but so cool. We were on our way back to Marfa after swimming at…read moreBahlmorea State Park. We stumbled upon this place after driving through Fort Davis and deciding we were hungry. The burgers were amazing- made fresh, crispy on the outside and pink on the inside, and the veggies were crisp and fresh. The joint is a food truck, served out of an airstream, with seating at the winery. Just go- you won't be disappointed. The winery was awesome and staff super friendly. I enjoyed the dogs sitting at my feet, waiting on a crumb to drop. I will most definitely come back next time we are out this way. Would love to sample the wine - had to abstain this time around.

Added a bottle of Mexican Coke and it was perfect. Don't be swayed that it's a food truck--eat them in your car if it's too hot for the picnic tables!

    Gordo's is local, fast, and very good…read more While we were in Terlingua this food truck was our go to... we made three trips to this place ordering different things and it never let me down. We travelled there in mid-July and the options in Terlingua were somewhat limited, but this is one you don't want to skip. The first evening, we stopped by coming out of west Big Bend NP, and I just needed something easy and not messy. So, I got an horchata and an al pastor burrito. Liz had the al pastor tacos, and the burrito was a self contained version of that deliciousness. The agua de melon was very sweet and energizing after a long day of hiking in the park. The horchata was creamy and thick, but just as cold and refreshing as its fruity cousin. We went horseback riding with the Terlingua Stables and before checking out Big Bend Ranch State Park. This time around, Liz grabbed a burger, which she was happy with. I tried another burrito - the chicken fajita bacon ranch. The fries that came with Liz's burgers were good... i stole some. I went back for seconds and ordered a small order (6) of wings with a not so spicy version of the mango habanero. I was able to enjoy them, and I tried their third agua fresca - hibiscus/jamaica. In the end, i was impressed with Gordo's they were always there for us, during the Terlingua "slow" season. The service was very friend, and the food served was very good. Don't miss out on Gordo's.

    I've eaten here twice and everytime I've left feeling like I just had the best hot dog experience…read moreof my life. The menu changes and you never know what kind of experimental hot dog you'll find. My first time through I had a Muffelletta hot dog that was absolutely to die for. If you're in Alpine this is for sure the coolest place to grab a bite!

    I used to live in Alpine a few years back and made it a point to visit as many places as I could…read morewhile living there. I don't remember Cow Dog being here before so after driving by a few times and deciding I could do better than McDonald's as I was leaving town, I dropped in to see what they had to offer. The cashier was friendly and when her credit machine wouldn't work after a bit and all I had was $8 cash, she was gracious and gave me what I wanted at a dollar discount. Extremely reasonable prices for the caliber of breakfast burrito I received. I got the bounty burrito and it was definitely worth the wait! Packed full of roasted potatoes, freshly sautéed bell peppers, chunks of breakfast meat and flavorful egg I was bummed I was leaving and wouldn't be able to enjoy another one on a different day. There's ample inside seating and even more patio seating. There's free street parking, but take into account it's on a one way so plan accordingly. I think people might pass it often because there was a sign on the other one way back to remind you where to turn. I hope this place lasts a long time like all my other favorites up there. Support local businesses when you travel through because you never know what simple delights you'll enjoy unless you try.

Discovering this amazingly aromatic, mouth-watering delicious Indian restaurant has truly been the highlight of our unexpected hotel stay in Fort Stockton after being towed in here following an Interstate 10 West mechanical breakdown. How lucky are their local Fort Stockton patrons! People passing through do not miss the opportunity for an authentic Indian feast!

They usually make it with dairy cream here but made it without upon request. It was mostly broth and tasted like tomato soup or something from a can and It didn't have much in the way of Indian spices. I was trying to imagine it with the cream added and it seemed like it would be worse unless they premixed a load of spices in that cream. The samosas were definitely better so if I had to eat here again on a road trip I would just get a bunch of those. They also have vegan dal with lentils but I haven't tried that. My general rating system: 1 star: I would stay away 2 stars: Has some good things about it but I generally don't recommend. 3 stars: Pretty good. I wouldn't go out of my way to go back but a decent place 4 stars: Great place. I would go back. 5 stars: I highly recommend stopping whatever you are doing and making plans to try it out! An Evie favorite!
