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!

Reata is a cute spot -- it's in a charming old house and has a cozy, historic feel. I ate in the…read morebar area and loved the log cabin vibe inside. 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.

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!

We used to stop in there for lunch but they don't do lunch anymore, sadly.

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.
