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!

Oak & Antler delivers elevated comfort food with excellent cocktails…read more We had our drinks at the table, starting with the bacon fat-washed maple old fashioned which was rich, savory, and beautifully balanced, as well as the Sandía Sol, which was bright and refreshing. Shout out to Anthony, the bartender. The deviled eggs and red and gold beet salad were solid, well-executed starters, and the shared southern fried chicken with macaroni and cheese was the highlight: crispy, juicy chicken and comforting mac that hits exactly the way you want it to. Warm service, relaxed pacing, and a menu that knows its strengths make Oak & Antler well worth the visit.

We walked to a few bars around this area and this one was our favorite of the evening; though they…read moreeach offer something different in experience. Since I was with folks who grew up in the adjacent neighborhood we all appreciated the house being repurposed with thought and they have done a nice job turning into a quaint bar with a large patio area. Decor/vibe - 5* The overall vibe of this place is great. We visited on a weekend and there was a live jazz band, who were quite good though it is definitely loud inside during that time. If you have an Apple Watch it will complain to you about the dB registering over 85 for sustained periods of time. In this instance it was about 90-100 the entire time we were there. Throughout the inside there are tabletops with seating and standing, the bar is long without overcrowding the seating which is a nice touch for those sitting at the bar vs those simply trying to order a drink at the bar. There is plenty of area to stand or sit out on the patio as well and one can still hear the live band which makes for a great ambiance. I'd recommend the patio area as the vibe out there is great. There is a bar service area outside connected to the interior bar area though it was not actively setup when we visited. Well thought and makes service streamlined without running between patrons. Food & Drink - 4* The drinks we had were good though nothing on the menu is super "craft" cocktail if that's what you're after. The wine and beer selection is decent as well. Service - 5* The bartenders are very attentive and did a great job balancing the number of people without service times being too long. Pricing - 4* Subjective but IMO nothing is over the top and the service was quick. Overall - 4.5* This is a cute and quaint cocktail bar for those who may be in a group or just taking a date after a meal nearby. I'd recommend visiting and we will all certainly be back!

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.

One drink was so good my friend and I spent a chunk of the next day trying to recreate it. I want to give this place a fifth star, but it was just a little too loud - crowd was good, lots of people talking, but the soundtrack drowned us it out - and the parking situation is a little odd. Lots of parking but it's all for the stadium. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Should I have parked there? I don't know, but if you don't tell anyone I won't.

But the attitude from the bartender should have been an indicator for us to walk away. I asked for some drinks in which the bartender proceeded to just stare at me. I asked "May I see a menu?" It was as if I was inconveniencing him. We finally ordered our cocktails (a Negroni and their version of a sprit). The bar was so dark that I had to keep pulling my flashlight just to look at the menu and sign my receipt. Then we decided to go upstairs to try to enjoy our drinks and to our surprise, we saw that the wine glass for the spritz isn't even washed. They poured our drink with dirty glassware. When we noticed, we decided to leave right away. Would not recommend this place at all.

If it's not too busy, the staff are usually very personal / happy to talk to you. - Great vibes - my favorite is usually the main tiki room and its booths, but the outside patio can be really nice as well - Food - portion sizes vary a good bit, so I recommend telling the how hungry you are and/or asking about portions.

Great Bourbon Selection & Outstanding Service…read more I've visited Tibor's several times, and I highly recommend it. The service has been spectacular every time--friendly, attentive, and consistently welcoming. If you're a bourbon enthusiast, this place is definitely worth checking out. They have an impressive bourbon selection, including allocated bottles at surprisingly reasonable prices, which can be hard to find. My wife and daughter really enjoy the craft cocktails, so there's something here even if bourbon isn't your thing. Great service, great drinks, and fair prices. Take a look at the bourbon selection--you won't be disappointed.

I've never had food here (I don't actually recall a food menu), but I've enjoyed beer and cocktails here. Nothing super memorable, but all good. The service has always been fine, but also not memorable. My 4 stars are for the overall vibe/ambiance, the varied seating options and good drinks. This is the kind of place that has a happy-to-stumble-into evening cafe kind of vibe. Especially if there's music. p.s. I've read the comment from the owner, but I looked at photos again carefully and I have the right establishment. I am a local and know the area. I've definitely seen live music here (I can add that it's been more than a year.) Perhaps there's been a change of ownership since then? Otherwise, I'd say that there are things occurring at the business of which you're not aware.

Absolutely loved the bar and hanging pots everywhere. Such a clean restaurant and cute vibe. Our waitress was very nice and friendly to us. So no issues there! For drinks I got their berry lemonade which tasted just like lemon juice. I had to request for sugar to be added since it was so sour so beware. My food had came out and to be honest I'm just a little bit disappointed. The rigatoni was cooked but the sauce for it was really not tasty? Like there was almost not a flavor I can taste. Of course there was something but it was very plain and barely even there. It also was not spicy whatsoever. I added grilled chicken too and oh boy was that dry dry DRY. The burrata personally I'm not a fan in general so of course I wouldn't be a fan this time either but they gave a nice little plate full of it. They added some oiled toasted bread and it was way too crispy in my opinion. My partner got the chicken Parmesan and his dish tasted great! Very juicy chicken and cooked all the way. The sauce was perfect too nice and flavorful and great pairing with the chicken. His butter noodles were just like regular butter noodles so not bad. Finally the crème brûlée. Probably the most disappointing dish we ordered. It took repeated stabs to break the sugar glaze on top. Me and my partner were honestly thinking that they added the cream on top to hide how burnt it was actually. Unfortunately because the glaze was so thick and burnt it made the rest of the cream taste have the burnt flavor. It was sad because my partner was looking forward to this desert. Also took wayyy longer to arrive than our entrées. I will say that the waitress was very helpful and she actually covered the crème Brulé. I didn't even ask she just offered, I think she could tell that we didn't enjoy it and I had nicely told her it wasn't what we were expecting so thank you sincerely. Overall I think this is a perfect spot to maybe try drinks and hang with friends. Food was okay, wouldn't try it again in that regard but overall a decent spot here in El Paso if you're looking for something new. Maybe best to ask what's their best dish to serve. Overall thank you.
