Prices are reasonable for the quality. The brisket was above average--not the best I've ever had, but the pork spare ribs are the star! The spare ribs are so tender and perfectly seasoned. I would probably just get those if I'm ever back again. Self-seating is available indoors and outside on the patio. Make sure you ask for bread, pickles, pickled jalapeños/onions, as they are complimentary. They also have water cups by the sauces (spicy or regular).

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!

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.

The ambiance was old-fashioned (very cute), and our server has been super nice and friendly. The food, on the contrary, was a complete disappointment - spicy margaritas were just ok (not good and not bad); cilantro japalapeno soup had a good flavor but no cilantro or jalapeno was found in it, and it was not spicy at all. Carne asada was dry, overcooked and not fresh, and so was rosemary chicken dish - chicken was pan fried and a bit greasy, but at least fresh. Mashed potatoes were a couple days old and hard as a brick. Steak was overcooked, and we have returned it. The only reason I would give Reata three star is our awesome waitress - she has been the highlight of the experience.

*** decent Thai food in Alpine, TX ***…read more Line Thai Cafe had good food, but I experienced a few qualms. Their complimentary water tasted and smelled absolutely disgusting and the dining room was not clean on 2.15.2025. Christmas decor was still up. The service at the register was okay - a bit too neutral. While we were waiting, the folks in the kitchen were yelling and making so much noise. I'm glad we decided not to stay. So when you walk in you order at the register then they bring the food out to you. The outdoor seating area looked nicer than the indoor, but it was quite chilly that night so we took our food to-go. Red curry chicken = $12.90 (good, but not much chicken and huge slices of red bell peppers) Chicken Satay over rice = $12.90 (probably the best dish we shared) Spring rolls (3) = $5.50 (okay) Shrimp cake (4) = $8.90 (I'd pass on these again) Sticky rice with ice cream = $5.90 (both of my daughters liked it, I passed on it) Sales tax is 8.25% (wow, West Texas) = $3.80 It's probably a really good option on a normal basis, but there is some work to be done.
