We visited the bar a few times during our stay and found the bartenders were friendly and seemed to have a good handle on everyone even when it was packed. The offer great beverages and the bar food menu gives you limited, but good options. My husband enjoyed the buffalo burger with its good flavor. I went with their baked eggplant Parmesan. This was an unexpected treat as it was prepared in such a way that I'd call it decadent. It looked like a square of lasagna and what you found was thinly sliced eggplant layered with cheese and other ingredients that made it the best eggplant Parmesan I've ever eaten. There, I said it. The best. The mixed greens and grilled focaccia is a nice touch to what you'll be enjoying with the eggplant.

Air conditioning was blowing really good even gave me the chills. If your looking for socializing this may not be the place or maybe I just was here at the wrong time. Either way Stixx has pool tables and is decent size. If you need a beer come here it's not a bad place.

I had to ask for it, a friend with us ordered carnitas quesadillas and didn't get the carnitas, they brought it out after when he asked for it. The burger was okay, lacked flavor but was okay. My niece LOVED her macaroni and cheese. Overall it was okay, we should have stuck with our original choice of restaurant and gone to the Reata.

Food is usually pretty decent. The service at the bar top is solid as well. This past week I've…read morebeen here a few times and they have been out of many food items for the past four days. Today, they only have wings and some burgers. Completely unacceptable! How do you screw up your food order as the manager that bad?! Ambiance, let's talk about that. This is west Texas and it's supposed to be a draft house. I've got music being blared in Spanish from two directions, different songs. It feels more like Mexico City than a draft house in Texas. I'll call ahead moving forward making sure they have a full menu.

The music in the restaurant was loud and unappealing. To make it worse, the kitchen staff had their…read moreown music blaring and was almost as loud as the restaurant. Nothing worse than listening to two different songs at the same time. The food was pretty pathetic. Frozen mozzarella sticks and wings. We ordered the sampler and it was basically a bunch of fried cheese in different forms. All from a frozen box. The "queso " was the canned ballpark cheese sauce. Nachos were also very unimpressive. Think Doritos with cheese sauce and a very small amount of meat. Almost like they accidentally dropped a few pieces of meat on the plate. We will definitely not ever be going back.

The wing were so dry, drier than grandma elbow. Service I had to ask 2x to to get some ranch with my wings. The lady said it with an attitude "it's in my bag" Got back home and there wasn't any ranch to be found. Overall very disappointing, all considering it's one of the only sport bar and wings joint.

Van horn was somewhat midway from phx to San Antonio, stopped at hotel and decided on dinner here…read more It was a Saturday, so busy, small wait for a table to be expected. It seems this is one of the only restaurants to get a steak, read some reviews. Here is my take: 1. Service was very good 2. Steak prices are marked as " market price" for every steak from rib eye through sirlion. 3. My wife had the filet 35.00I had the sirlion 29.00 my steak was a little tough. My wife's steak texture was so thing you would get at a cheap grocery store, for a tenderloin at 35 bucks, I expect it to be decent, not at all 4. The sides were good asparagus, green beans, smashed potatoes 5 Overall, 3 stars at Best will not be back for steak here 4.

We were looking for a nice place to have dinner while staying in Alpine, TX. This fit the bill!…read more The restaurant is in a yellow house with an "R" at the top. There was an American Flag and a Texas flag flying out front. We walked in and waited for someone to greet us and seat us. After we were at our table, drink orders were taken. When our water was brought out, we were also given some Honey Pecan Biscuits with butter. They were warm and I liked the pecans in it! Hubby & I shared everything. 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!

I ordered the chicken tortilla soup and the smoked quail. The soup was served with the garnishes in the bowl and the broth poured from a kettle at the table, which was a fun presentation. The quail was also well plated and tasty. Overall, I enjoyed both the food and the presentation. If you're in Alpine or passing through (like I was on the way back from Big Bend NP), this is a great place to stop and grab a meal.
