Restaurant Cochineal Marfa Reviews from The Last Year
Well, it looks nice
Reservations were made for us so I didn’t research Cochineal. Now that I’m reading the reviews, I can see I wouldn’t have bothered eating there July 4th. Cool looking place. And the young man who seated us was pleasant. The positives end there. Our server— void of personality, slow, and would have rather been someplace else. Food— the bread was good. The other dishes we shared, hmm. I enjoyed the day old peanut butter sandwich I ate back at the airbnb. There’s a great TexMex place 1/4 mile to the east. And a DQ 1/4 mile to the west. Take a small walk. You probably need the walk and you’ll appreciate the effort.
Food was ok though not as good as I anticipated.
Indoor atmosphere was nice but the table spacing (or lack of) really ruins the dining experience. When we arrived at 6 pm, they sat us next to the other two occupied tables (a few other two-tops were available and same wait staff for all so not sure why they don't stagger tables) and all of the tables are thisclose together making it hard to not hear everyone's conversations clearly, which I wouldn't expect in a restaurant that seems to market itself as closer to upscale dining than cafeteria seating. The mushroom risotto was good but overly salted as was the trout. We didn't order appetizers since as soon as we sat down we were ready to eat & leave due to the close proximity (my partner could hear the person next to him chewing which didn't make for a pleasant experience for him). The charcuterie and bread our neighbors were eating looked good, so if I ever returned, I'd order that and sit outside on their patio table.
Food terrific, service largely absent.
Really cool restaurant. Arrived at 6:30pm, little early. Servers were great, very welcoming. Will jump to conclusion…while every course of chefs menu was excellent…the inattentiveness and 20-30 minute intervals between courses was pretty extreme. To be clear, we weren’t alone. Our neighbors….two women pals from Austin/Houston, and father/son from San Francisco on each side of us also agreed that service was weak. The only issue was that we literally waited far too long between each course. No way our meal should Uber been over THREE hours. And lame service wasn’t handled well… Our neighbor politely noted that they had ordered a cocktail “30 minutes ago “…and the waitress instead of saying, “I’m sorry let me get that for you”, said “oh bartender is really slammed”. Uh..,this is a small high end restaurant, you can’t get your guests their drink in 30 mins? And if they speak up, you tell them you’re really busy?? Again, food was really tasty, but we arrived at 6:30 and left at 9:40. And the number of times we, and our neighbors, rolled our eyes and laughed about staff being absent for a $300+ meal, was way too high. Can’t have great food and weak, inattentive service and pretend not an issue. If charging $300+ for meal, customers should expect solid service as well as food.
Ate here last week and was hugely disappointed.
I received an invitation via email to rate my experience; expressed my disappointment and expected them to perhaps contact me about it. But since they haven't, I'll relate our experience here. Good news: the mezze plate was huge as amazing - easily the best we've ever had. That's where the good news ends. Both my wife's fish and my steak were salty nearly to the point of being inedible. And in fact, the butter on the bread board was inedible. The frites that accompanied my steak were lukewarm and tough (I had infinitely better fried potatoes with my burger at Water Spot the night before). I now regret not saying something at the time; but they were busy ( which perhaps accounts for the lackluster food) and we had already spent a good portion of our evening there. All things considered, I would not eat here again
An Unexpected Experience
My wife and I had the opportunity to spend some time in the charming small West Texas town of Marfa over the weekend. My mother's family is from the area(Ft. Davis) but I hadn't done much other than stop for gas in Marfa on my way to the Big Bend National Park over the years. What a surprise to discover Cochineal! The online reservation process was painless, although disappointing as we had waited to long to make a reservation for the prix fixe menu experience. We arrived promptly for our reservation, which was at the bar, and asked if there was any way to get on the prix fixe menu for tonight as well as sit at a table inside or outside. The staff was incredibly kind and asked for us to stand by for a few minutes. The chef was there and we had a wonderful conversation about the space, the building, the courtyard etc. Shortly after we were seated and from there, it was amazing. I wouldn't call my wife or I foodies but we enjoy good food and drink when we can. I would rate our experience at Cochineal well above many of locations we have visited around the western hemisphere. And the staff was amazing! Especially Chef Alexandra Gates, she spoke with us on several occasions during our time there and it was awesome. My wife and I will definitely be back.
Grateful for the dining experience
The food was exceptional, and we are grateful for the dining experience at Marfa. The simple salad, the grilled trout, and more were well prepared. My partner had a meat dish and raved. But we mentioned that it took an inordinately long time for two cocktails to be ready, and the drink glasses - including for the Processo - needed to be appropriate for the beverage.
Fun tasting menu, pretty pricey for what it was.
Interesting assortment we wouldn't have ordered a la cart. Glad we tried. The escargot was great.
We will never go back to Cochineal.
I cannot talk about the food because we ended up not eating there, but I can speak about our experience. An important part of a fine dining experience is the wait staff, and the host at this restaurant was very rude. Although we had a reservation, they did not have a table available. Instead of apologizing for the mixup, the host was dismissive and apathetic. He told us to wait in an adjacent room for our table, which he said would be just a few minutes. He refused to let us order drinks from the bar and had us shown to the other room, where we were given water and menus. After about 30 minutes of waiting, we asked how much longer it would be and were told the table was being cleared--which turned out to be a lie. We asked if we could at least order drinks--no one had bothered to ask if we wanted anything. We felt like we had just been dumped into this other room and were being ignored. One top of that, we were hangry! After 45 minutes of waiting and being ignored (we did not even have our drinks yet), our dining experience had become a bad taste, so we took our appetites and our money to LaVenture in the St. George Hotel. The wait staff there were friendly and seated us right away even though we didn't have a reservation the food was delicious!

We cannot talk about the food because we ended up not eating there, but we can speak about our experience. An important part of a fine dining experience is the wait staff, and the host at this restaurant was very rude. Although we had a reservation, they did not have an open table. Instead of apologizing for the mixup, the host was dismissive and apathetic. He told us to wait in an adjacent room for our table, which he said would be just a few minutes. He refused to let us order drinks from the bar and had us shown to the other room where we were given water and menus.

We asked if we could at least order drinks--no one had bothered to ask if we wanted anything. We felt like we had just been dumped into this other room and were being ignored. On top of that we were hangry! After 45 minutes of waiting and being ignored (we did not even have our drinks yet), our dining experience had become a bad taste, so we took our appetites and our money elsewhere. We will never go back.
I will say first off that the food here was very good.
Besides my steak being too rare, everything they served was amazing. However, as another reviewer mentioned, we arrived on time for our reservation but were told to wait in an adjacent "gallery" area where we were ignored for 30 minutes until our table was ready. Once we finally were seated and ate our dinner, our server forgot we existed after giving us our main courses. The service was terrible, and on top of that they added a minimum 20% gratuity that they did not deserve, even though our table was only 2 people. I think some of my issues with this place are indicative of the service/hospitality available in Marfa as a whole, but still. Eh.
Horrible horrible service avoid at all costs.
Had reservation and the gave it to a walk in , no apologies after 1 hr we left
place is tiny with tables way too close.
wife and I felt like the tables next to us were part of our party. service was sketchy at best as was food. thn to top it off they added a 20% gratuity on a to top! I am a generous tipper when I receive good service but the amount of my tip should be MY choice! We will not return to this place
Horrible experience.
What a disappointment!, we saw the reviews. Wife and I go try it out. First off you are packed in like a sardine as tables are literally on top of each other. Service was slow. Finally got our food and it was not good. To top it off waiter brings our bill and they added a 20% tip on a TWO TOP!!! One of the worst dinning experiences we have ever had and we have been all over the world. Very over rated.
One of the best places in Marfa to get fresh coffee and a
One of the best places in Marfa to get fresh coffee and a bite to eat. The have local and freshly baked goods that are super clean ingredients! Overall, great chill vibe and has outdoor space if you are looking for some vitamin D.
I've been here before so my expectations were very high.
Again, Cochineal met the challenge. This is my favorite restaurant in Marfa. I could have eaten the bread all night long; the butter and oil accompaniments were very flavorful. The vegetable fritters balanced well with the aoli mustard sauce. The trout was the over-the-top surprise: truly memorable. The apple panna cotta was a fun finish to a perfect dining experience. I love this restaurant and I look forward to a visit again soon.
What a fantastic experience! Wifey n' I in town for a quick
What a fantastic experience! Wifey n' I in town for a quick anniversary getaway, and with just arrivin' from the long drive (our messy timetable) we stumbled in without a reservation and hoped for the best. Granted, it was an oddball "not peak" time, so the crowd was thankfully thin and they got us in. I'm not really up on the fancy restaurant guidelines and terms etc., but we put ourselves in the server's hands for suggestions, etc., and it was fun, delicious and so unique. It was my first time trying some foods that were familar as food terms, but we've just never put ourselves in a spot to try them, such as caviar, boar, and gazpachio soup, and some others. We LOVED it all! We got a "Prix Fixe", which was a number of courses (check out the pic I took of that part of the menu). Not sure how relevant it will be to people reading this review in the sense it surely rotates greatly depending on what they have going on day-by-day. It's all very "chef-ie", and fluctuates depending, I think. And our server (I think her name's Melissa) was so sweet, attentive, and humored our green-ness, she's great. I got a few pics, I wish I got some of everything and did the items justice, but I hope they communicate well. As for how much it sets you back $$$, I would describe this as not inexpensive, but considering "where" this restaurant is set geographically, the unbelievable artistry, expertise, assortment, flavors, freshness, presentation, atmosphere, finishing touches, staff, comfort,... it was VERY worth it. Not someplace we could come regularly, but wow, one of the best places we've ever eaten and experienced ever. If you have the opportunity to ever visit here, wow, WOW, go for it! (just do bettet than us and make those reservations if you can).

Great Service - amazing dinner!!
Read about the site in NYT and bought a reservation at Mother Wolf in LA 2 days later. Worked great and the food was amazing!!!
Worked perfectly!
Got the reservation (that I couldn't get anywhere else) and was able to entertain a group of friends at the infamous Bern's Steakhouse.
Got into Nobu Malibu
Wonderful! My parents are visiting and we have wanted to go to Nobu Malibu for years. I tried getting a reservation myself but it was next to impossible. So glad I was able to buy a reservation on appointment trader for a decent price!
Very easy
Was very hesitant going into this experience but am glad to say that it worked out very well ! will definitely use appointment trader in the future
Fabulous Lunch
I was veeeeeerry skeptical that this would work, particularly at a restaurant as hard to get into as Nobu Malibu, and it was perfect! We had lunch outside on the patio and it was fabulous!
Great reviewer team
Just wanted to take a second to shout out the reviewer team. Even though they probably review hundreds of listings and bids a day, they still take the time to leave great comments and respond relatively quickly. Thanks!
Incredible
I got a reservation to Don Angie, which I've been trying to book for weeks! I am very happy with this service.
Best platform out there!
Super simple, easy, and fast to secure reservations for hard-to-get restaurants and locations!
This app is life changing
This app has opened my world up to so many wonderful new experiences I would never have the chance to have without access to this awesome app! 10/10!
Worked perfectly
Was a little nervous at first but was pleased to see that the booking went through flawlessly.
Highly recommended.
Success on Short Notice
Was able to snag an indoor table at Don Angie through an absolutely seamless worry-free process.
Worked perfectly, thank you!
This is a crazy holiday season in NYC and I was very pleasantly surprised to see that AppointmentTrader works! Will be using again!
Worked flawlessly!
Worked so well! I was a bit nervous, but everything went very smoothly. purchased the reservation, and got into the restaurant seamlessly.
Love this app!
So glad I came across this app :)
Quick table in Miami
I didn’t have my hopes high as it was a party of 4. In 24 hours I had a carbone reservation available! I was very happy as my family really wanted to come here
Prime time, great meal
So easy and had a prime time which I can never seem to get on normal res apps. So worth it
Got impossible NYC res
instead of waiting weeks I got my 4 charles reservation instantly
Worked perfectly to get into Carbone. So delighted
perfect
Worked well, got me into a restaurant with no availability
I was skeptical, and I still don't really know how they managed to find this hard-to-find reservation, but it was a win-win from my point of view, and I'll use this service again.
Last minute reservation for Delilah Las Vegas
Got a last minute reservation, dinner for 2 at Delilah Las Vegas: super impressed! The process was simple, transaction seamless. We had an amazing time! Couldn’t be happier! 😍
It works!
Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!
Money transfer
As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.
Love this app
Got to go to places otherwise unreachable
Easy Access
Very easy to get into one of the hardest restaurants to reserve in New York.
Whose name will my reservation be under when I arrive at the venue?
It can be under your name or a name you choose! Some reservation offers already include the AppointmentTrader Transfer Service which will transfer the reservation in to your name. If its not included you can add it on after buying the reservation for a small fee. One thing on that though: As many reservations become available at last minute, taking a reservation in someone else name is quick and great for privacy. Most reservations on AT are listed with a virtual phone number, so all you need to do is present the phone number at the hostess stand and you are good to go!
Payouts Blocked Because of Sell Through Rate
Does anyone know how AT plans to handle cases where a seller is quitting the platform but has a sell through rate <25%? The error message I got said to fill more bids or find other ways to increase the rate.
Is AT really going to block sellers from withdrawing their money? Especially revenue made before the sell through rate was introduced??
Tune into NBC News - Top Story Tonight 7:40p ET
Let’s go. Get more people placing bids!
I will give you 50% of ALL of my PROFITS if you teach me how to make profits?
LOL. Thank you The New Yorker.
Appointment
Transferring reservations is not supported in AT. Why not just use the name in the AT screenshot?
Buyers interested in Bern's Steakhouse: PLEASE READ
Same goes for 4 Charles and I Sodi
Prepaid Reservation Fee
Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.
Congrats on 3 mil
🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🧨🧨🧨 now on to 30 mill!
Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it?
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted.
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome
to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
