First off- the vibes/ ambience as the sun sets is unreal! I loved the views from the restaurant and really gave the Texas vibes we were looking for. Service was pleasant and timely which is always appreciated. I got a glass of wine and my husband got a beer. Food wise, I got the steak bites and absolutely loved them! So good. My husband got the Spicewood Philly and some wings. He enjoyed his food, as well. If you're in the area, I'd definitely suggest you stop by for a meal!

That was a blessing in disguise. This cute place is a bodega, deli, and wine shop. We ordered two oven-fired pizzas for takeout so we could hang out with our canine at the local dog park: + Hot Honey Pepperoni Pizza (we requested the honey on the side in case my oldest didn't like it, but she did) + Chicken Pesto Pizza Total = $41.09 The pizza were cooked nicely. Not overdone. Took only about 12 minutes to be ready even at a busy time of the Sunday afternoon. They also sell dips and herb breads, sandwiches, salads, drinks, dog treats, candy, & merchandise. Some advance orders are necessary, but they also offer: Charcuterie boards, frozen bake-at-home pizzas, lasagnas, King Ranch casseroles, and cookies. Delivery is available. Great service.

The service is was great, the restaurant is simple but clean and welcoming. But the lasagna. Oh the lasagna. It came out steaming and cracking in the dish they used in the oven. And I waited. As long as I could. But at some point, I risked the mouth burn because I couldn't resist any longer. And I tasted a lasagna so well done that I could hardly believe it was real. This lasagna but most of my favorites to shame and escalated itself to quite possibly my favorite lasagna of all times. It's small and it's in a small town. But this place is worth the stop.

The waitstaff is terrific, from the friendly bartender (you can purchase almost the entire menu for 1/2 price at the bar!), to the professional waiters. The food choices are diverse and international. I love the dumplings and the bao; they transport you right to China. The glazed shrimp appetizer is to die for, and the pizza, best in Marfa. But the real piece de resistance is the steak, especially ribeye special. It's huge, and cooked just right (I love mine medium rare). Shout out to the ramen, unlike any you've ever had, and the wide variety of drink specials provide a number of whimsical choices that should please every taste bud. The chef here is terrific, as is the service. You can eat here 5 times and never have the same international fare. It's shocking in West Texas to discover a restaurant so accommodating, and the prices mean the entire family can enjoy the experience. Don't miss this incredible restaurant!

We started with the salad, which was a solid opener--fresh, generous portion, and overall enjoyable. Nothing that really stood out, but definitely not a miss. The pizza was... okay. You can tell it's fire oven cooked, which is usually a win, but ours came out a bit too toasty--borderline burnt on one side. It also wasn't cut properly, which made things a little awkward. Some slices weren't cut through at all (had to ask for a knife), and others were uneven--ranging from oversized wedges to tiny slivers. Service was a little scattered, but to be fair, we came in toward the end of the night and our server mentioned it had been a hectic evening. No real complaints there--just felt a bit rushed and disorganized. A couple of downsides: they close at 9:30, which isn't ideal if you're looking for a late-night bite or drink, and there's no room service--you have to head down to order. Overall, it's a convenient spot if you're staying at the hotel and need something easy, but it's not necessarily a destination meal. Convenient? Yes. Notable? Meh.

There is a decent size dining room, a nice bar area with high top tables, and tables outside on the patio. We stopped there to grab something to eat on the way to the Star Party at the McDonald Observatory. Not being very hungry, we split the Rio Grande Brisket Taco while sitting at the bar. The brisket was flavorful and plentiful; delicious. The bartender was busy, yet still attentive. The food orders we saw all looked good and plentiful. I wish we could have stayed a while longer, but we had a 20 minute drive to the observatory. Unfortunately, cloud cover pretty much ruined the Star Party, however, we were pleasantly surprised that a refund was offered. I highly recommend a stop at the Blue Mountain and check-out Fort Davis.
