Bandera Mountain Tavern — Restaurant in Jasper

Came in for lunch with parents. Wasn’t very busy. Long waits, but good food. Very nice staff. Good for a long lunch while talking or doing something else, more “family restaurant,” less fast food.

The hours on here need to be updated. Has WiFi, but most of the staff don’t know the password. The person I asked asked someone else though, got it pretty quickly.

They didn’t have the black bean burger, ordered by one of parents, in stock that was on the menu, but that was fine and got addressed fairly promptly. They played country music that wasn’t really to my taste (I don’t really enjoy country music besides maybe NBuna), but I think my parents enjoyed it.

The server was very nice, but kinda overstretched once more people came in. Of course they didn’t have many staff on Thursday afternoon, around lunchtime. If it’s too busy, it might be good to avoid for the time being unless they hire more people. That’s fine though, just as long as that’s what you’re prepared for.

Prices are medium, definitely more of a place to go when you don’t care about it taking a while, rather than a place to just have food like Maccas or such. Either a place that will be enjoyable or won’t be, doesn’t seem like something for everyone. Kinda the essence of a small town restaurant, in both good and bad ways.

Good cheese steak fries (pico was good but didn’t really fit the dish), good brussel sprouts (very garlicy or not), good mushroom smashburger (cheese crisp on it, I think they might’ve forgotten some veggies on it though). Food is good, but with lots of mistakes. That’s really not the appeal of the place though, the vibe is for people who want a countryside restaurant vibes, and it wasn’t anything that posed a health risk (meat...

My husband and I went and had dinner here tonight. My husband got The Wild West Burger, it was OK but not great. It didn’t have any caramelized onions on it but our waitress, Shay - I believe, went and got some for him. He also had the brussel sprouts instead of fries which he really liked! I had the grilled salmon with the honey bourbon glaze with a baked potato and side salad with 1000 Island dressing and Texas toast. Mine was really good but didn’t have enough glaze (I didn’t think any at first) however Shay went and got some more for me so that was good. We had sweet tea and half and half tea which wasn’t sweet at all but they immediately took care of that and all drinks after were spot on. We ended with an Oreo mousse which was ok but could have been better with some crushed up Oreos in it. We waited awhile to be seated which is to be expected on a Friday evening however the spring in the door needs adjusting as it kept slamming as people were going in and out and the wall was shaking where we were standing- maybe check it out. They have just opened recently but all in all it was a really good evening and we enjoyed...

Restaurant is very small so we expected a long wait time. We only had to wait about 15 mins and the service was decent, considering how small the place is. We ordered the queso as an appetizer and it just was not very good. My wife and I both ordered the 12 oz. Ribeye topped with a mushrooms and garlic with a loaded baked potato and a salad. The salad never came. The steak was flavorless and the baked potato was not cooked all the way through. I rarely ever leave food on my plate and I only finished half of my steak. The mushrooms on top of the steak were burnt and had a very charred taste. We were also informed that they were out of a lot of stuff on the menu. I have had better food for...
