I’ve been hesitant to post my review as a knee jerk reaction so I’ve let marinade for 6 months to see if it still bothered me…turns out, it does.
We waited for while despite there being a couple of bartenders who were happier to chat amongst themselves before acknowledging us. When we were asked where we’d like to sit, we said the little tables setup outside. “I don’t serve out there” snapped the black-eyed woman behind the bar. Okaaaayyy, well we’ll order from you and take it out ourselves (?).
We waited and waited and after 30 minutes the door flies open to a yell (no eye contact) “your foods ready”. My wife volunteered to go get it but had trouble with the door with the stuff in her hands so I had to run over and get the door, and subsequently our drinks. No follow up about the food or anything….fine. Not only did she not serve outside, she seemed to be allergic to it (or us).
Going inside to re-up our drinks took more effort to tear her away from her convo with a barmate, and when I finally interrupted, she seemed visibly annoyed. I struggled with the door and drinks in my hand once again. No help.
When I went in to pay, more of the same waiting for her to acknowledge me so when I was presented a tip option, I thought “hmm. She’s been rude and I did her job for her so nope” (I’ve never done that before and have never been given so much reason).
The icing on the cake was getting back outside to collect my jacket and leave when the woman bursts outside asking us if there was something wrong with the service. I told her yeah she’s been inattentive and rude and we had to do her job. “I still have to clean up all your shit!” she barks, slamming our plates on each other and violently snatching our glasses off the table (hadn’t quite finished my drink but I let it go). She storms off.
I’m just trying to get a couple of drinks and lunch. I don’t need this.
I’ll never come back to this place and have never in my life been treated so poorly at any establishment.

Total Marfa vibes—minimal, artsy, and just the right amount of weird in the best way. A fun little stop that sticks with you.

The bartender with shaved head and beard, may be named Joshua, is the star of this place. Really nice guy, knowledgeable mixologist, clean, and just the best part of our experience. Much of the rest of the staff seem to need hygiene help.

Good place to hang out and watch sports. We watched an entire football game at the bar. Beware they can't turn the sound up on the game. The bartenders were all friendly. Josh was great. Naya was very helpful too. The food here is really pretty good. We ate there multiple times and enjoyed everything we got.

Sat at a table for 15 minutes without even a greeting. Watched other tables being greeted and handled menus. Had to walk to the staff and request menus and water. After 10 minutes water never arrived and staff still didn't come to the table to ask if we wanted a drink. Complained to front desk and was greeted with apathy. The most frustrating and disappointing experience I've ever had here. Will stick only to the hotel from now in. Worst service experience I've had in my life.
Where do I start…6:30pm Monday. 3 of the 7 tables had customers, no one at bar. Bar/Waitstaff were lethargic and unconscious of their customers. Bartender disappeared when waitress placed our order. Then Waitress disappeared just as my $15 martini was left at the wait station, 8 feet from our table, 20 minutes after being ordered, and sat there longer than I appreciated - so I got up and got my drink. I ordered a Caesar salad that, uh, waitress forgot— as she delivered our dinners. Yet forgot to take it off the bill she delivered in the form of a hand held computer which had nothing but the total. Perhaps she was new. Perhaps she spent too much time behind the bar - yet hadn’t a clue what the TWO draft “Seasonal beers”were when asked?! Now the food. The smash burger rivaled Sonic, the Steak of Steak Frites was shoe leather but juicy cause I ordered it med-rare thank goodness. The FRIES were SPECTACULAR, and sadly the best thing about our terrifically expensive meal! Didn’t get the offer of dessert or coffee or a thank you or a kick in the butt - that would have been too much effort on their part. Wow, so disappointed with Bar Saint George. Based on Google reviews I would have sworn we were at the wrong restaurant.

If you’re in the mood for steak and wine and know nothing about either you’ll be in good company of chef and staff. My medium rare steak frites could have been a delicious tartare had egg and grinding been applied. The chimichurri was delicious. The frites 🤌. The wine, great if you know what you’re doing. Otherwise, may the odds be ever in your favor sweeties.

The bartender Bryan was inattentive. I wish the very nice and excellent waitperson was bartending. She gets five stars! I did not get her name. When you tell someone you need a little more time, I'll never understand why they ignore you and never come back in a few minutes. I will never hail a bartender unless the place is packed 3 deep plus. I was one of two, then 3 at the bar. Attitude. But I still tipped 20% for crap service because I hoped they might share tips. Doubtful because the waitstaff has to tip the bartender, typically. The food looked good, and the pizza I saw looked awesome. But the menu is pricey. $22 for a 1/2 pound burger. The El Paisano has a half pound ground prime rib burger for $16. Cobb salad-$22, and did not sound like a real Cobb salad. But the attitude is the starter and the ender. 4 12 oz draft craft beer $10 each. Good, but not that good. I did not take photos of beer.

Great place! Consistent food and bar hours. Customers can be overwhelming with demands but the staff is excellent. This place is my new goto.

This place is a ripoff scam even for Marfa. They are absolutely incapable of producing an order of breakfast tacos without cheese, staff incompetence. Oh, and one small 12 oz cup of mediocre bitter coffee? $4.50. Just absolutely ridiculous.
