The original Reata Restaurant located in the scenic Davis Mountains of west Texas offers the same fine dining and Legendary Texas Cuisine you can find at the Fort Worth location. Alpine, home to Sul Ross State University is near Texas tourist destination Big Bend National Park and the towns of Marathon, Fort Davis and Lajitas. Alpine is also a short drive from Marfa, Texas renowned both for the mysterious Marfa Lights and Donald Judd's Chinati Foundation. Reata, named after the legendary ranch in the James Dean classic movie, "Giant", which was filmed in nearby Marfa, boasts the same high quality Southwestern dining you can find in Fort Worth. This is not food for the faint of heart, from Chicken Fried Steak to Calf Fries or the Pepper Crusted Tenderloin and Cowboy Rib Eye Steak, this is a dining experience not to miss.

Never brought 2nd drink and then at the end the server didn’t bring the change back, when asked took 10 minutes. When ask again threw $20 back at me and said fine don’t tip me (still tipped $11). She assumed she was getting a 33% tip with poor service I guess.

Server was inexperienced but tried his best; had a good attitude. We had the Field Green salad, and we both had Blackened Salmon with Dill Sauce. All of are food tasted good and was prepared properly.

I had reservations for 7:30 and they were not prepared, watched another couple come in a little while later that said they had reservations and there was not a table prepared for them either. Awesome food, awesome service, great atmosphere. Just needs a little work on reservations.

The appetizers were good and 2 shared orders could make a meal. The chicken and shrimp on the Pasta Alfredo was dry and overcooked. Portion of pasta was huge; enough for 2 lunches the next few days. Next time I will sit in the bar area. The mural on the outside wall was beautiful and it was much quieter.

We were particularly appreciative of Sergio - he was kind, pleasant, helpful and attentive. I don’t think our experience would have been as good without him. We also appreciate the brief conversations with the owner or manager of the evening.

We were told that if you don’t have reservations, it is hard to get in on the weekend. We arrived at 5:00. Our waiter was fabulous! He is a student at Sul Ross University. Very attentive to our needs. The food was delicious! Definitely recommend!

There is a new manager and he was very attentive and checking on diners through the evening. The servings are large so no one will leave hungry. The chicken fried chicken was so good! The bacon wrapped shrimp was a tad over done, but still a great choice. The onion rings were a hit at our table and disappeared quickly.
