It's chilly outside, so all of these beauties were brought in.
This little guy was pushing out some nice heat!

*** really good choice for a higher end dinner in Marfa, TX ***The food is excellent! It really was fresh, carefully-prepared menu items.Let's get this out of the way...Oof...The knocked off star is primarily because we didn't know if it was seat yourself or an employee with assist you. My daughters begged me to stay when I said I was walking out after multiple employees walked past us yet made eye contact with me. Please address this issue because an older couple came in after us. Did their little wandering around thing like old folks do. Confronted a nice man who seemed like he was in charge who quickly apologized and got staff to assist us after standing around for over 10 minutes.Inside reminds me of my brother and sister-in-law's house with dark green paint and accents of black and gold. A mix of all kinds of antiques. Greenery. Gold chandeliers. Some eclectic items. An assortment of artwork was displayed in the larger dining area.However, we sat outside. The patio was delightful with a cool breeze. Luckily we had jackets since none of the heaters were operating. Rotisserie chicken was rotating on the grill near us. Service was friendly and attentive once we finally were seated. I'm admittedly staunch on the service side of businesses, but perhaps more so with a restaurant such as this one. DRINKS:+ Hot chamomile/lavender tea (they were out of green tea): $3.50+ Dr. Pepper in a glass bottle (my oldest loved it - so fresh, she said) $3.50+ Mystery Light cocktail $16 (I would definitely order it again.)+ Cheese board $24 (this was my meal... loved it!)+ Pasta Rossa (campanelle pasta in vodka sauce, topped with fresh mozzarella and basil pistachio pesto) $23 (my youngest ordered this... so delish. No meat, but pasta was cooked al dente. Amazing sauce!)+ Classic burger meal $17 (the fries were so yummy... my daughter didn't give me a chance to try her burger LOL)+ Two scoops of ice cream $13 (worth it... the girls allowed me to try their Cotton Candy and Peanut Butter Bailey's)Marfa, Texas, is a small town. Thus, restaurants seemingly run out of items here, so bear that in mind. Order a cocktail. Facilitate good conversation. Be merry. Forget the disappointments (for a while anyway... lol).Cards or cash accepted.Recommended for a casual or fancy dinner.RATING BREAKDOWNFood: 5 | Service: 3 | Ambiance: 4 | Price: 4

Bohemian restaurant with outdoor seating and a fireplace as well as a resident cat. Well, neighborhood cat who likes to come by for a visit. Love that!The food is much higher-end than you'd expect and that was a welcomed surprise. It was all well-made and locally sourced.The tortilla soup was beyond perfection.Superb service with attention to detail.

Great food and service! This was our first stop when we arrived in Marfa. We ate outdoors so flies were a small issue but not big nuisance. The outdoor patio is shaded and nice.Drinks were cold and tasty after a long drive. The food was also delicious! The fries and aoli were a great appetizer. The summer salad and the grains bowl were also fresh and yummy.

The food at the water stop was tasty. No complaints about my huge salad with grilled chicken. The biscuits were delicious as well. The burrata was ok. Overall a pleasant stop in Marfa.

Very cool place with delicious food! My Greek salad didn't have any lettuce, but I didn't even miss it with all of the delicious and well sliced veggies. I'd ask for a little less dressing next time. I tried the French dip and the bread was perfectly crunchy to stand up to the au jus; the beef was so incredibly tender that I was kindof sad I didn't order that for myself. I loved the old building that had a little chilly breeze running through all the cracks but the heater was doing a great job of keeping it warm enough. The whole place felt like Austin, including great music on the playlist, cool waitstaff, and high prices. Definitely a nice place to stop when you're deep in the heart of Texas.

Really enjoyed the food and atmosphere. Little slow on the service, but the food and drinks were enjoyable. This is a small town restaurant with a simple menu that hits the mark.

We were starving the first night when we arrived in Marfa and stumbled across The Water Spot. Luckily, we didn't have to wait for our group of 8 to be seated. The food, drinks and service were all impeccable. We were each pleasantly surprised with how much we enjoyed our meal and drinks. Absolutely fantastic! I had a house made black bean burger with fries. Bun, patty and fries were all super yummy! Two others had steak they enjoyed. My friend loved her caesar salad and others enjoyed the French dip. I was sold on trying the side of carrots per description on the menu. Somehow we ended up with 4 sides of carrots that were so good that they were all eaten up. The bartender was super cute and friendly. He informed me they were out of prickly pear for the ranch water, so I ordered the smoky mezcal Paloma instead and drank a few. Everyone loved their beverages. Had we been in Marfa for longer, we'd have definitely gone back. The vibe and ambiance were perfect. Until next time...
