Frommer's Review
With a stock ticker over the front entrance, this restaurant caters to the wheelers and dealers of Midland's business community, but history buffs will find other things to gawk at while they dine. The 1910 building, originally a saddle shop, still features the original pressed tin ceiling, and the cherry-stained mahogany bar and back bar received a commendation from the Texas Historical Foundation for their restoration. The menu, conversely, is contemporary, with tastily creative offerings such as seafood rellenos with chipotle-tomatillo sauce, pecan-crusted trout, and charbroiled pork chops. The crawfish étouffée, rich and thick, is just about as good as it gets.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
