Texas Lodge Bar & Grill

Road weary, we were lured to Texas Lodge Bar & Grill by stellar reviews. This tiny dark place (12-15 tables) has a huge reputation. We were warned by our server that several items were unavailable so close to closing. DH ordered the spaghetti and was offered garlic bread (not included) and I ordered the congri and lechón asado. It arrived sans the traditional maduros which made me sad. The dish itself tasted homemade and the serving size was adequate. I should have ordered a beer accompaniment, but hindsight is 20/20. Of note, there are different cash vs. credit pricing. All in all the stopover was worth it and I have no problem recommending them.

Local bar and Grill with ample seating in a small space. The service was good and the food was a bit of a mixed bag. I had the spaghetti Bolognese which was one of the best I've ever had, though if you want bread there is an extra charge. I sampled some of my wife's black beans and rice with pork: It was a little on the salty side and there were no plantains (sacrilege!). The prices were on the high side: be prepared to pay $20 per dish and even more if you want steak. There is an extra charge If you want to pay with a credit card. All in all, it is pretty decent food for a bar and grill.

Thank you Yelp. I have eaten next door a couple of times and thought this was just a little corner bar. After reading reviews I decided to try it. Probably the best Ribeye I have ever eaten! This is a small family owned restaurant with a high end menu with touches of the owners Cuban and Italian heritage as well as casual burgers and sandwiches. I would even take my snobbish foodie friends here.

We had a great waitress! I hated to keep asking her for butter and salt, but she did it with a smile. It was clean and she cleaned up a spill on the floor some had made right away. We shared our meal. The steak was perfect for my husband but needed to Moo a little less. But I inhaled it. Made a great stop for our long drive from Waco to El Paso.

Big portions , we ordered the cuban sandwich which was good and really filling. Wife ordered the bolognese and it was surlrisingly better than the one we ate at an ieataly (las vegas) as a comparison Try this restaurant its a bar and grill and we ate lunchtime

Delicious food, friendly service. Must visit!!!This was the first restaurant I ate at in Midland, and I was very impressed! Restaurant is situated in a strip mall so plenty of parking. It was fairly empty when I went close to closing on a weekday.I got the Cuban Texas Lodge Signature sandwich which is(according to the website since their menu in person didn't have details): "Pita pocket bread filled with slow roasted pork in Guinness beer and veggies, ham, swiss cheese, pickles, mustard and mayo. Comes with a side of fries."I'm not a big fan of sandwiches, but this one tastes so gooooood!! I can't wait to go back!! The food was filling and I had leftovers. My partner usually gets the burger when he comes here, and he raves about them, so food here is solid. Highly recommend for their tasty food and friendly service!!!

Everything was great: one of the best ceaser salads I've had. Drinks were very good as well. Highly recommend

I'm really surprised I had not heard of this place so I'm trying to spread the word! I never order steaks at restaurants as I like the steaks from my grill, more. But luckily the 16 oz ribeye was only $37 so my wife ordered it and it was REALLY good, I would have been proud if that steak came from my grill (and it was definitely bigger than 16 oz). I ordered the Chicken Pesto Pasta and it was excellent as well!!! This place is a must try! Full bar, as well!

It's been over a year since we ate at the Texas Lodge Bar & Grill. We liked it at first and went a couple of times, but the menu was limited and the food pricey.We decided to try it again a few days ago and were not impressed. The service was good, but that's about it. I had the Cuban sandwich, the pita bread was overdone and crispy. My wife ordered a very well done hamburger and fries, and asked that they not put seasoning on her fries because she has a food allergy. Her fries had the seasoning, and her burger was medium. We commented to the waitress, and she said she could send it back, but we didn't want to wait for that. She said that they had a 'communications problem' with the cook. My guess is that the cook doesn't speak English. She asked if we wanted ketchup or salad dressing, we said yes. Well guess what? They CHARGE for ketchup and salad dressing! I've never seen a restaurant charge for condiments.Oh, yea, the menu shown above is old. They've added a couple of things--and jacked up the prices. My Cuban sandwich and my wife's hamburger were both over $20. I had water, my wife had one glass of wine, no desert. Total was $60, + the tip! This is one more restaurant that I'll cross off my list! Never going back!

Ghost burger is fantastic. I was warned it was spicy and it was perfectly spicy. Food service and ambiance are all worthy of 5
