Odessa / Midland Restaurants

The many people who moved into the Permian Basin over the course of time have brought their own food preferences. While some made their fortunes in oil, others left that industry to open restaurants leaving the Basin with an exciting dining scene where almost every cuisine imaginable is available. Many restaurants in Midland put unique spins on Texas beef. You can find it served in outstanding lasagna, beef enchiladas, mesquite-smoked brisket, churrasco, or a great steak. Down the interstate in Odessa, one finds many great choices for Southern comfort foods, including buttermilk biscuits, fried chicken, pot roast, and green bean casserole. Regardless of which city you choose to dine in, expect a warm Texas welcome even if it has a different accent as soon as you walk in the door.
