    Special: Halibut and Side Salad
    David C.

    Midland/Odessa does not have many nicer restaurant options but Cork and Pig is one of them and a great one at that! My coworkers, a customer, and I had a reservation and we were promptly seated. Once seated, we had the best server ever. His name escapes my mind currently but he was absolutely amazing. I would go back just for him. We started off with some deviled eggs which were tasty and what you would expect. The halibut was excellently cooked with a crispy outer layer and juicy and tender in the middle. The side salad was also perfectly proportioned with all ingredients. I would definitely recommend going to Cork and Pig for a casual outing and/or a business meal.

    We met up for drinks. I love the vibe it's definitely a great place to meet up with Friends and Family. The staff worked hard to get drinks out quickly. I did not eat but the food I saw look tasty.

    I can't remember the name of the drink, but it was fabulous!!

    I love the new extension to the Cork and pig in Midland Texas. It's more calm and I was able to hear conversations. For some reason we kept getting different people waiting on us, but they were all nice. It was just confusing. The waitress suggested the drink in the photo and it was outstanding! I ordered the smoked chicken dish and potatoes. It was delicious and I would definitely order it again! However, my portion was very small compared to other visits to the same restaurant. The ambience in the extension part of this restaurant made up for anything else. We enjoyed our dinner thoroughly and are looking forward to our next visit already.

    From start to finish, this was an exceptional brunch experience! Warmly welcomed by staff, Patricia was attentive and friendly server, food was spot on!

    I was in West Texas, eagerly anticipating a visit to Cork & Pig. However, I was unaware that they had expanded their presence by opening a new location in Midland. I went online, opened the menu, and noticed that they had the short ribs. Honestly, I didn't read the description. The short ribs at the Odessa location are, without a doubt, the best thing on the menu. We arrived again and didn't bother reading the menu description. We noticed they had a short. I opted for the short rib, while my coworker chose the Chicken Parm. When the food arrived, I noticed that it didn't look, taste, or even resemble the short rib from their sister location. I brought this issue to my servers, but they didn't seem to understand. He did explain that this is the standard short rib. However, when I opened the website, I noticed that the description and both locations are different. This short rib is, without a doubt, the worst I've ever had. If you're looking for a good menu item, head to the Odessa location instead. This isn't a cheap dish, and it's not worth the price. My service was good. Wait time was great. Food is a zero out of zoom ask for my coworkers offering. He said it was very enjoyable. I hope this reaches out to someone and does not make the same mistake that I do. It was a waste of money.

    Veggie Pizza and corn bread appetizer
    Jay S.

    Awesome spot! I had the steak salad and my friends had a veggie pizza and a the pig pizza. It was delicious. The steak salad had a bit of sweetness to it, which I would have been ok without, but that's just personal preference. The pizzas were tasty as well. I had a slice, I'd give a 7 out of 10. The service was TOP NOTCH! The food came out with perfect timing. Our server wS GREAT. And the atmosphere was relaxed but sophisticated. I will definitely be back next time I'm in town!

    Amazing Cornbread - "Off Menu"
    Dan W.

    Went with group from work. The first thing is to acknowledge the service. She handled our table of 9 like a champ. Friendly, cheerful, and helpful. A few people had pizza. One coworker said taste was great but he would have preferred it be cooked a tad longer. So if you like it crispy. Might let them know. Another dish I saw include the beef tips. Reportedly good. We ordered the off-menu cornbread. It was AMAZING! The spinach dip was good as well. Personally, I had their blackened ribeye special with their peanut coleslaw. It was all great, the steak was a little closer to rare than medium rare. But it was tasty. Always like the coleslaw (and I don't care for coleslaw typically).

    $14 comp for staples in my salad

    Took a Client and his girlfriend out for a nice dinner. I took a bite out of my Caesar salad and noticed something weird as I was chewing. Decided I needed to spit it out only to find 2 staples! The manager was apologetic. But, when I got the bill, only $14 was removed. $7 per staple. Thats the going rate. If I only had 1 staple in my food, it wouldn't have even covered the Dos Equis! I was absolutely speechless.

    Calamari
    Noel J.

    We definitely needed a reservation and thank god we did. Our reservation was 7 and we got here at 630 and was sat immediately. The front staff were super friendly. Once we sat down we only waited a few minutes until our server came to introduce himself. We was very friendly and to be honest he's the reason I'm even leaving a star and review. For our appetizer I got the calamari and corn bread. I didn't care for the corn bread because it has jalapeños in it but it was sweet. Just tasted really weird. The calamari was okay, it definitely could have used a little bit more in the fryer so that it could be crispy instead of soggy. Whatever the white sauce it came with was delicious but the red sauce I highly recommend not trying it. Everyone in my party, which was 10 of us, thought it was absolutely disgusting. For my main course I ordered the 8oz filet with a said salad. I asked for no tomatoes and no goat cheese and it still had it on there, so they replaced the salad and put blue cheese which I wanted ranch. So again I got a new salad again and it was finally made correctly. I will note their ranch is chunky here. Then my filet came out but it came out cold as hell. At that point I was over this place and sent it back. I will never eat here again just because of the lack of the food quality. Definitely not worth the money. I have at a lesser steak places that was one, the steak was cooked and warm and two less than what they were charging. I don't mind paying money for a good steak. This place is not it.

    Calamari and deviled eggs
    Alex G.

    When we got there, there was a 30-40 min wait so we sat at the bar which was first come first serve. The service was pretty good and one of the bartenders even offered us an exclusive cocktail not on the menu. We got our apps within 10 min of ordering. We also ordered the ultimate pepperoni pizza and salmon with charred cauliflower, which were both good but the salmon was slightly undercooked. Overall, a good meal with good service and ambience.

    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!

It has a nice easy-going, small-town Texas feel to it which is hard to describe unless you've lived in a town like this like I have. The inside is typically nice and chill; an ideal environment to grab a cocktail or two and conversate with a date, coworker, group of friends, whatever. Out of all the bars I have been to in Midland, I think Buffalo Nickel has the best selection of whiskey especially. I am not a huge whiskey aficionado but I have heard from ones that this is the place to go. I am more of a tequila and beer guy and they have everything I want. The unique thing about this bar is that the back patio is smoke-friendly. I am guilty of wanting some nicotine after some drinks so this is a great place for me. They also sell cigars if that is your thing. Cheers!

We sat at the bar and our bartender was very sweet and attentive. Explained the cocktails a bit for us and gave suggestions. The Pumpkin Spiced White Russian caught my eye online so I went with that and hubby had an Old Fashioned. Drinks were spot on so when the bartender said they had a great Espresso Martini I said but of course! It was absolutely delicious!! We highly recommend Buffalo Nickel for a small gathering or date night cocktails.

It's a small touch that shows how much they value the people who work there, and it keeps the cocktail list fresh and personal. They've also done a fantastic job expanding people's palates when it comes to tequila. Whether you're a longtime fan or someone who's just starting to explore it, they make it approachable and exciting. I'll always recommend Blue Door to anyone looking for a great beverage. And if you're not drinking or taking a break, don't skip them. Ask about their mocktails. The lineup is just as thoughtful and impressive as everything else they do. Truly a place that loves its community and its people. Highly recommend.

I will say that I was pretty impressed with the food and especially the service but there were still some things that kept me from giving it a perfect score. First off, the service was impeccable. When I walked in, I was greeted right away and sat promptly. My customers that I was taking out arrived a bit later because I was early but I was still provided with water and not bothered. An additional customer came so we had to move tables and it was done promptly and professionally. We were helped without it being overwhelming. Great job! The food was good and well-prepared. I ordered the roasted salmon and it was cooked very well with a crispy skin, the asparagus and brussel sprouts were salted well and cooked just right, the only complaint on the taste is that I wish there was a bit more jalapeño sauce and that it was spicier. It had no kick to it at all. My main overall reason for taking a star off is that the prices are definitely too high compared to the offering. Was the salmon dish good? Yes. But was it $39 without tax and tip good? Not really. Overall, I recommend this place to impress a date or to take a customer where conversation can be had easily with a nice atmosphere.

Salmon was a triangle shape like you get from Sam's club freezer dept, mixed veggies were also from a freezer and slightly reheated. One of my veggies was actually still frozen on the inside! Mac n cheese was cold. Seriously it had not even been warmed up appropriately. How hard is that? Steaks were okay and probably your best option there but not worth the $27. Bartender did a great job of mixing drinks. Mixed drinks were all perfect. Cooler was "out" so no draft beer at all. Second server also talked down to us like we were trash. We were just about to leave and go somewhere else when we received our third server who was awesome. Kristian was her name and she knows how to serve!! Great attitude, attentive, patient, talkative and friendly. So we stayed a few hours, DJ shows up around 9:00 and he did a great job with music selection. Dance floor is small but not crowded. No smoking in the main part of the bar so this is a nice place to go dancing and not end up smelling like cigarettes all night. I'd recommend this place for drinks and dancing but definitely not for dinner!! Also, ask for Kristian to be your server if possible so you get treated with respect. She gets one whole star on my review, otherwise this would be a one star review!
