We ate in the patio area, cause I had my dog with me. They came and took our drink order right away. When they brought our drinks they also bought a bowl of water for my dog. We had great service throughout the night and the food was excellent. One worker even brought some treats for my dog. Will definitely go back again.

I highly recommend this restaurant. Only open during a limited time frame, make reservations if possible. The food here is better than great it is amazing. The quality of food here is high. The service is amazing and atmosphere is relaxing outside romantic inside. I am staring this place and coming again each time i am in Alpine Texas. Thank you for existing.

Some nice food with home cooked vibes, not going to win any awards but tasty and filling. Presented well and good choices for drinks too. What lifts the experience is the cheerful staff, the cleanliness and freshness of the interiors and exteriors plus the relaxed comfortable vibe.

I really wanted to love it, but the Chili Relleno entree was disappointing. The pepper itself was fried just right, but the filling could have easily been Velveeta. Don’t get me wrong – I love Velveeta. But not by the forkfull. Hubs got chicken fried steak. It too was “fine”. The patio was lovely and our server was terrific. The food just underwhelmed.

Reata is located in a renovated older home downtown Alpine. The patio is nicely decorated and murals are visible on the outer walls from the backward and through the windows. Indoor spaces have been well utilized to accommodate a large number of guests. The food is delicious. We went two days in a row, and everything we had was amazing. The multigrain biscuits and herb butter were mouth-watering. The jalapeño cilantro soup was creamy without being too rich. I liked the avocado chunks in the bottom. The bacon-wrapped stuffed jalapeños and grits were cheesy and flavorful. We had them both nights. The steak was cooked just right, the nachos were served with the cheese still melted, and the citrus chicken was tender and moist with a crispy crust. I had Mac and cheese the second night, and it was served on a hot skillet, so I had to let it sit a bit, but it was also creamy and cheesy. We had different servers each night, and one brought everything without asking while the other had to be asked (plates, drinks, etc), but everyone was polite and friendly. Will definitely go again next time I am in Alpine!

Fort Worth location is much better. Bad good delivery timing. Stuff was definitely under a heat lamp. Would expect better for the price

I was very impressed by the level of service and quality of food. I had the grilled chicken topped with Bleu cheese and tomato salad. The chicken was very moist and delicious. The other people in my party had chicken fried steak, which was huge!

Reata is a constant go-to for us. We know that we’ll always be greeted with a smile no matter how busy they are. The food is first-class and so is the service. Thanks Mariah, Nicole, Erica, Laurie, and the entire team!

It’s been a while since I’ve written a review, but this place warranted one! Such a great menu selection – I think I would eat every single item. Walking in, the restaurant smelled pleasant, clean, and was very homey. We walked to the back patio and got to pass thru an awesome sun room with a tree growing thru the ceiling. I imagine it would be cool to dine in there as well, but we chose to sit outside. Out back, there was a great mix of plants, art, and seating that I could chill at for hours.
