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).

The teepee at the entrance is gorgeous and has a ping pong table, a side table, and lots of chairs. The bar has plenty of seating around it and the bartender was super friendly. Our group of 8 ordered food and drinks and we were delighted with our orders! There is a large stage area for live music, a back house with pool and board games, and an old bus with seats and a table. Didn't get to take pics of the bus, but it was awesome. Extremely happy with our experience here and would definitely recommend adding this to your itinerary when visiting Marfa, Texas!

Really high-quality cocktails that you'd find at any 4-5 star lounge. Affordable! It was really cool to mix it up with Marfa residents as well as other tourists. Knowledgeable and friendly staff.

It was really interesting and fun to try. The plate we got it with looked pretty good, but the bread was stale and the homemade pickles were not very well pickled- Tasted like they were put in vinegar that same day. We mentioned to the staff that our bread was stale to see if we could get a fresher one but they said it's because it supposed to be like a crouton/ toast. We have had many croutons and toasts in our lives ofcourse that didn't feel and taste like stale bread but we just took it as a funny part of our Marfa stop experience. Not a place I'd come back to consider the quality for the price but definitely a memorable end to our short stop in Marfa. My general rating system: 1 star: I would stay away 2 stars: Has some good things about it but I generally don't recommend. 3 stars: Pretty good. I wouldn't go out of my way to go back but a decent place 4 stars: Great place. I would go back. 5 stars: I highly recommend stopping whatever you are doing and making plans to try it out! An Evie favorite!

We also got the tasty smoked salmon tinned fish plate, which came with pickled carrots and radishes, castelvantrano olives, and crackers. It paired nicely with their funky orange wine. The owner/server was friendly, and nice to chat about their Texas wine. I ended up buying two bottles, my favorite being their rose. This is a place the locals go to hang out, and you get a real vibe for Marfa's small and close-knit community. It was fun to be there and be part of the action.

My husband and I were driving back to Austin from California and decided to pull over, catch a basketball game, and grab a bite to eat. What we didn't expect was one of the most genuinely welcoming experiences we've had on the road. From the moment we walked in, every single person we encountered was incredibly kind, warm, and inviting. It didn't feel like we were just customers passing through--it felt like we were being welcomed into a community. The food was fantastic! The street tacos were hands-down the highlight--fresh, flavorful, and some of the best we've had anywhere. And the prices were more than fair. One of the most memorable parts of our visit was being given a tour of the backyard area. The team shared that it had recently suffered a fire, but they were still proud to show us the space and even invited us back once it's fully restored. That kind of openness and resilience really stuck with us. Oh--and we can't forget Tito and Becky, the two sweetest cats who made the experience even more special. Joe's Place isn't just a stop for food--it's a place full of heart. We'll absolutely be back next time we're passing through. Thanks Joes place!
