    I really enjoyed this place! Its a clean and beautiful restaurant, great satisfying food, and amazing service! I really cant say enough how great the service was!!! Recommend this place!!

    French toast platter was fantastic! Hash browns had the perfect flavor and crunch. Bacon cooked perfectly!

    I really only go there for Saturday brunch, but my husband and I always enjoy it. The staff is extremely friendly and, although it's small, it's a good place for a cup of coffee and a nice visit as well. It's a little tricky, figuring out where to park and finding the entrance if you are going for the first time. On Saturdays, we have to enter through the alleyway.

    One of my favorite places in midland. It's a bit of a hidden gem, down a dingy alley under a bank. But let me tell you as soon as you walk in and the owner greets you with a big smile and makes you feel welcome, you'll know you're in for a real treat. This guy goes above and beyond for customer service, one time I was talking to my gf about how much I liked the chips in the refried beans but wished I had more he brought out a plate of them sans charge! Or a buddy didn't know their potatoes had onions in them he got them exchanged no questions asked. Never had a bad experience here, and they just recently renovated so it looks like a pleasant bistro on the inside now. You can't go wrong with the midlander skillet, or their special breakfast platter which comes with everything you could want on a fancy wooden platter. I also enjoyed their lunch offerings, the green chili chicken enchiladas especially. If you give them a shot you won't be disappointed.

    It is a hidden gem in Midland Texas.Wedged in the back of the bank building you'll find the small bistro brewery worth your time. We had the Midland skillet which was very good and my wife had an à la carte a plate with French toast, hashbrowns, sausage, and it was very very good. Service is great. Food is excellent. Coffee is very good. I would highly recommend a visit to Midland bistro.

    Some of the best norteño street tacos and borracho bears I've had outside of Mexico. Tortillas de harina hechas a mano en casa. ¡Ñam! Bistro Tacos

    My partner and I came to visit from Houston and decided to try this place. The food was amazing and we got great service. The owner even introduced himself to us and offered everything he could.

    Wild berry crepes with Canadian bacon and eggs. Only in the breakfast secret menu.

    Yesterday I got to try this item that is in the "secret menu" at tall city for breakfast. Manny used his extensive background in French culinary to creat something unique for us. 3 crepes stuffed with Canadian bacon, topped with warm blue berries and cranberries on a wine reduction sauce and condensed milk. All that and two eggs. The sweet and salty combination of the crepes was on point.

    Huevos Rancheros

    So yummy! I had the huevos rancheros and the corn The food is so delicious, the service very fast and everyone in here was super friendly. I will most definitely be stoping by everyday. The best breakfast in town! Plus is a family business!

    Shrimp, Midlander tacos and a Philly cheesesteak huge recommendations.

    A little hard to locate on a Saturday but so worth the phone call for amazing quality and top notch service. Hidden gem for Midland, TX. Great job guys!!

    The food was ok- really needs a better location. Had a hard time finding it as the entrance was in an alley with a single sign.

    Great food and drinks. Very well prepared and served. Quality ingredients. Excellent service!read more

    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! RATING BREAKDOWN (4 stars overall) Food: 5 | Service: 3 | Ambiance: 4 | Price: 4

I ordered the chicken fried chicken that includes a house salad. When I didnt receive it, I asked the server said "I didnt think you wanted it." I said "If it comes w/the meal then YES I want it." She walked off with attitude. The mash potatoes that came with the meal looked brown and watery. When I asked what was it she said, "It's just a LOT butter." I looked at her confused, she huffed and walked away while I was still looking at her. I wanted "mashed" potatoes not butter potatoes. My fiance' order biscuits n gravy. He said "It tasted like Dollar Store gravy in a can." Lol Needless to say he tried to eat it but could only get 1/3 of it down. Then we overheard the diners behind us complaining about the pancake taste and the fact they they were the size of old-school LP albums and WHO could eat that much bread. Lol. After trying to eat this "food"...we just couldn't, Then waited at the table for 15 minutes for a To-Go box for my chicken fried (because that was the only thing really edible) we watched the servers play on their cell phones, not paying attention to customers. My fiance had to get up, interrupt their conversation and ask for box. So me being petty, when we paid I didn't leave a tip and if the server had asked why, I would've replied, "Because I didn't think you wanted one!" And where is the other "tomboyish" looking server that used to work there? She was funny, hospitable and knew how run that place! The crew we dealt with today... Absolutely unacceptable. * Dine at your own risk. ;)
