8/10 Very good

The property, room and staff were outstanding, as usual, however we have noticed, as frequent visitors, over the last few visits that the quality of the restaurant product has deteriorated. My wife and I split the Pistachio Chicken Fried Steak on our last visit, December 2nd, which was overpriced given its toughness, bland taste and barely warm temperature. We highly recommend and strongly request that the menu be changed periodically and that extra effort is taken to make each item offered deliciously seasoned, prepared with excellence and served at the appropriate temperature. Tender, tastefully seasoned entrees which are served hot should be mandatory. A variety of salads, soups and appetizers should also be rotated monthly as well, with some staples such as a good Caesar and Classic Wedge salad. It is our hope you will invest more into the quality and variety of your menu. Thanks

Love the El Capitan! Second time staying and it won't be the last. It's an oasis of retro cool. Grateful for the restaurant and the front desk staff.

Lovely surprise in Van Horn
A little gem. Very comfortable, clean, cosy. Very friendly staff and a great building. So much nicer than all the cookie-cutter chains. Ideally located when traveling from Big Bend NP to Guadalupe and Carlsbad NO’s
