Food is consistently delicious! Everything I’ve had on the menu has been so tasty. I am vegetarian and gluten-free (not celiac) and there are many options for me. Wine is reasonably priced. Wish I could eat here every week. I am hard of hearing and each time I’ve been it’s been easy to converse with my dining companion.

I’m only giving 2 stars to be nice. The service was mediocre. No one ever came to check on us after our food was delivered. The food was terrible. Coming from Austin where we have so many farm to table Italian eateries this didn’t even come close. I didn’t expect it to but this was my worse nightmare. I got the baked eggplant parm. It had the worst chunky m tomato sauce. The egg plant was just swimming in sauce and it was watery. I could barely taste any bread crumbs. It was just a soggy mess. Not how I like my baked egg plant at all. The bread was also just odd. It was overpowering with garlic and it just wasn’t balanced. The whipped burrata bread appetizer was okay. Some parts had way too much salt. It just wasn’t my favorite. I’ve had some great burrata bread dishes and this was low tier. There’s just nothing notable about this place. Go to cochineal, not here. For the price, this isn’t worth it. Paying Austin prices for low quality dishes.

Was closed during posted hours. Would have liked to have tried it.
Vegan options are very limited. I ended up getting the kale salad, and after removing the cheese and pecans (which had butter). It was just kale with a couple pieces of beets. The cranberry dressing was very yummy and so was the wine.
They had no vegan desserts, so I ended up getting the sweet potato (hold butter, substitute olive oil and add sliced almonds) - very delicious.
Our server didn’t seem to know much about vegan options, but was friendly and willing to check into things with the kitchen/cooks.
It was also really smoky and hot inside. Not a great experience.

This was the best meal I’ve had this year. While the online menu seemed to have limited options, our waiter helped us and suggested a completely delicious unlisted vegan spaghetti. The vegetable appetizers were amazing, my picky husband even loved the carrots which were beyond any carrots imaginable. If I could give five stars I would.

The food was absolutely delectable and is a must stop in Marfa. Charming, well designed restaurant felt intimate but lively.
Vegetarian options: Well seasoned, balanced flavor- you can tell they considered their vegetarian options
Margaret’s in Marfa is a must-visit for anyone looking to enjoy an exceptional dining experience. This cozy, popular spot does not take reservations, but the staff helpfully directs you to a nearby wine bar for a pre-dinner drink if there’s a wait. The intimate setting, warm atmosphere, and inviting decor make it well worth the time.
The meal was nothing short of spectacular. We started with the cheese toast, which was topped with whipped burrata and roasted tomatoes—an absolutely perfect appetizer to share among friends. Next came the Iceberg & Crushed Olive salad, featuring a delightful combination of jalapeño, sweet white onion, and parmesan. It was a fresh and flavorful complement to the Spaghetti Bolognese, made with 100% Texas beef.
The Bavette Steak, served with chimichurri and a loaded baked potato, was perfectly cooked and paired beautifully with a side of roasted carrots topped with roasted garlic, jalapeño, feta, and pepitas. Each dish was thoughtfully prepared, with layers of flavor that stood out individually yet harmonized wonderfully.
Margaret’s also boasts an excellent wine selection that elevated the entire meal. We ended the night with a shared slice of key lime pie, which was nothing short of heavenly—a tart, sweet, and creamy finish to an unforgettable dinner.
Margaret’s is a gem in Marfa, offering an outstanding dining experience that’s well worth the wait. Don’t miss it!
