This bar is an absolute riot! In the best way possible. I visited here on a Thursday night and it…read morewas absolutely packed with some characters. It was open mic with some surprisingly good singers and a big dance floor. If you're looking to dance with somebody, this is the place to go. The prices on the drinks there are a little higher than I was expecting but still somewhat reasonable. It is also open to smoking if that's your thing. They have pool tables, dancing, music, and friendly people that are willing to hang out if that's what you are looking for. A little word of caution: be careful if you are leaving at bar close. There were a few cars doing donuts right outside and driving WAY too fast. As well as some questionable individuals outside.

I've dined here several times during a recent work trip, and I've been consistently impressed with every dish I've ordered. The ambiance, food, and service were all excellent. This review reflects both my individual dine‑in experiences and a special request I made for evening dinner service for my colleagues. Overall, it was a pleasant experience, and I highly recommend it whether you're visiting or just passing through.

First, the hostess didn't greet or acknowledge us. She simply stared at us before eventually seating us. After we were seated, we waited... and waited. No one ever came to our table. We were never greeted by a server, offered water, or even acknowledged by any staff member. We noticed two ladies behind the bar and neither came to check on us . What was supposed to be a special evening ended up being a frustrating and disappointing experience. We were genuinely looking forward to dining here, but being completely overlooked ruined what should have been an enjoyable part of our staycation.

They have all the drinks you expect from a bar including some slushie drinks that would be great for hot days. Last call is 1:45AM so it definitely seems like one of the only places to go for late nights in Midland. They had karaoke when I went there with not too many people partaking so if you want to sing you will be able to get to quickly and with multiple turns. It was really easy to talk to everybody there.

Saint Blaise is a fantastic choice for a more formal brunch, lunch, or dinner in Midland, TX…read more MISSED MARK Getting the cons out of the way... The reason it missed the 5-star mark with me was our waitress was slow to do everything. Even with taking our drink order. Then our food order. The worst was waiting for my final bill. And then she forgot our takeout box for my youngest. I don't know why she didn't have a greater sense of responsiveness with our party of 3, but it was like this the entire duration of our meal on July 25, 2026. It was super frustrating! The other reason I knocked off a star off was because the towel dispenser was depleted in the lone restroom. I had to flag down an employee with drenched hands. THE PROS I called about 20 minutes ahead of time to reserve a table because I knew this brassiere was on the small side. The lady on the phone was courteous and professional. If you have a hot date, I highly recommend reservations particularly in the evening. This seems like that sort of place. When we arrived, I found free street parking a short walk away. We were promptly greeted and seated. To enter the restaurant, you must go inside the Frost Bank tower's lobby, but to exit there is a door just beyond the bar. This place has beautiful, eclectic decor. The bar area was somewhat rounded and has an easygoing, but classy feel to it. THE FOOD The ambiance is what made this a great mother/daughters brunch date. The food sets it apart from the majority of restaurants in this oil industry town. The have East Coast-sourced oysters on the menu! These are far superior to their West Coast counterparts. I would have opted for these for our app if it weren't for my minions, I mean children. Pigs in a Blanket ($15.00) - yet another appetizer my daughters pigged out on that I didn't get to try. And they said they weren't that hungry! Lies all lies. They looked divine with nicely cooked juicy sausage and everything seasoning on the pastries. Avo Toast ($11.50) - my newly-turned teen daughter and I both had our own. I opted for eggs over easy which were cooked nicely. She oddly chose scrambled eggs for her, but she ate pretty much all of it. Smashed Burger ($17) - my youngest had this and said it was excellent. Nice touch with an American flag planted into the top bun. For the umpteenth time she did not share a fry with me. It is what it is. Mocha latte ($5.00) - my youngest's birthday which I will be missing since she'll be visiting her father is coming up so this was a treat for her. I tried it. Quite good after being thoroughly stirred. 1988 Martini ($18) - pricey but oh so good. The olives stuffed with bleu cheese were not bad. I had to try it even though the thought of bleu cheese kind of turned me off. Lol. Will I return? Of course because I have faith it will be 5 stars next time. Look at the other raving reviews!
