Ft, Davis, Alpine, Marfa

Looking for restaurant recommendations. I have heard that there is a food truck in Marfa that serves good chow; any other spots worth a visit?

Food Shark is the name (food truck), Also Planet Marfa is getting good reviews. A friend lives out there both good.

What about marathon. I'll be there in January hunting.

Found some pretty good food at the drugstore in Ft. Davis. Food at the Indian Lodge in the state park was so-so. The Food Shark truck in Marfa was closed for lunch on Sunday. Very much enjoyed the weekend in the Davis Mountains, although the charm of Marfa escaped me. The unwarranted artistic smugness that wafted through the air in that town was too much.

Well, maybe it was swamp gas wafting through. Did you at least get to see the Marfa Lights?

Left Marfa shortly after noon, so no, did not get to see the Marfa lights. I am convinced that the source of these lights is a couple of illegals playing catch in a field with a light-up football.

The gage hotel in marathon has excellent restaurant

Paisano in Marfa, La Casita in Alpine

there is a food truck(good food)that you can see way out in the mountains(a light)if you can find it it great,be sure and take pictures

I used to eat at the Riata in Alpine...it was dang good but that's been awhile. Also, Alicia's in Alpine is great. Used to get the trash can breakfast burrito. It was everything left over from the day before mixed with eggs ... damnnnn good!
