The barramundi and linguine with shrimp were both amazing! Also definitely do not miss out on the date pudding while you're here. Cute , small restaurant . Make a reservation .

Jeff Weinstein

Best restaurant in town but slightly pricey . Sit at the bar and try to Celery and Smoke cocktail and then asparagus appetizer (ask for bread ) and the chicken chilaquiles . Anything is good here.

Ryan Glenn

Chilaquiles as an entree will blow your mind. Date pudding w/ caramel might make you cry. Fine dining that's delicious without pretense. Fantastic old-style cocktails . We crashed Hilary Swank's bday.

emily chen

If you're in Marfa, this is where you should be for dinner . Don't miss the escargot or Toshi's Date Pudding . Read all about my visit below! Read more

Nowadays it seems that every small town has 1 amazing restaurant . This is Marfa's. Try the shrimp and grits or gnocchi to start. Finish with the date pudding .

set in a 100-year-old adobe building redone in a style that the owner, Tom Rapp, calls “friendly Minimalism.” The desserts , especially the baked-to-order date pudding , are excellent.

Talisa Chang

House bread , chilaquiles , and date pudding were great. Could have skipped the pear salad .

Mark Driscoll

The food and cocktails are amazing, but be sure to make a reservation well in advance of your visit.

Kathrine

Everything we ordered was wonderful, but the date pudding is an absolute must! (We even ordered a second one.)

Julius Tarng

It's the top recommended place in Marfa but I much preferred Maiyas if you had one sit down dinner here

Ruchit Shah

Get the artichoke hearts and the gin mule. Sit in the back corner and look out the small window.

Shyam Venugopal

Food is good.. you just have to wait 1.5 hrs for a soup .... and that 364 out of 365 days is incredibly sad....

Fahd Ananta

must try the date pudding . artichoke hearts are also really good.

jennifer han

order the sticky date pudding and flourless chocolate soufflé . amazing, truly.

Dave Floyd

Great place. You should eat here while in Marfa. And, get the bacon if you're there for breakfast .

Lis R

If you're looking to celebrate something special, this is the place.

Amy Bryant

The escargot is the best I've ever had!

Vegan walnut pate !

naveen

shrimp & grits are a must. so is the tequila old-fashioned.

Andy Ellis

Tapas (all!), cocktails , and filet. Truly no disappointments.

Elie Bleier

Skip everything. Go directly to the date pudding . Enjoy.

Mariko Tamaki

The Thai soup is insanely yummy. Also the date pudding is a MUST.

Sara Slate

Don't skip the fried artichokes .

Mari

I don't know why the rating is so low here. I literally saw Beyonce here.

Jon Etkins

Steak frites w/ Barramundi in the background.

Chloe Hernandez

So delicious!

Frank Janicek

Staff was pretty rude, they were doing you a favor by seating & waiting on you. Food was okay, nothing to come back for. Although the restaurant was half empty, they sat everyone next to each other.

Great coffee ! Cool spot! Check out when you're in Marfa!

carlos Jackson

Delish! Even sitting at the bar is awesome

Elizabeth Ross

The Rhubarb Sophie is amazing

Avan Allen

OMG! Get the date pudding ! Pure goodness.

Jon Daniel

It's laid back , man. Embrace the inefficiency.

Raquel Pena

Our server just tipped herself. Boo! :-(

Jennifer Schooley

Coffee was free with dinner .

D K

Unfortunately disappointing. They were out of several items on their small menu, and the service and food were very, very slow. The filet was over-salted and not worth it.

Alan x el mundo

Si hace buen clima pidan una mesa en el patio . Todos los platillos son excelentes.

Unique experience. ❤️ the concept. It gets cold in October so bring warm clothes. Bring soap too. The outdoor showers are awesome. I stayed at a teepee and they're huge. Would definitely come back. - Sheyla Concepcion
