J&G Grill

Omygoddd I am totally missing this restaurant now. Everyone who plans for Big Bend National park should stop by this restaurant and have their food and go. This restaurant is located in Marathon which is one of the last place before you proceed to the Big Bend National park.

This restaurant is located inside ALON gas station. If you have to fill your gas this ALON is the last place to fill your tanks before you proceed to Big Bend.

Well not just fueling your vehicle but don’t forget to fuel yourself with their food 🤪🤪

We ordered Jalapeño Poppers, Fish Burger , Chicken Strips , Curly Fries, Tostadas. It was tooo good. Being near the Mexico border I felt like it was a perfect Mexican taste and I loved the sauce which they gave. It as the first time I ever had that sauce in a Mexican restaurant. Well I loved it not sure if you might 🤪🤪

Staffs were friendly and don’t forget to get a snack from the store which is very yummy and has some spice flavor.

This was our favorite breakfast place in Marathon. We thoroughly enjoyed all of the made to order breakfast sandwiches and burritos we tried at J&G. The salsa was flavorful and spicy. Store also offers several types of individually packaged pastries. Self-serve coffee bar had vanilla creamer and more. Employees were very friendly. Clean tables and bathrooms too.

Fun/funky decor, simply and well executed American/Tex-mex staples. Definitely going to be back next time through town. Bonus, you can do your hiking laundry while you crush a delicious burger.

Got a egg and potato burrito burrito for breakfast and it was truly the best I’ve had! Super simple, but tasted incredibly fresh. The owner was super sweet and chatted with us for a little. If I come back to marathon, will definitely come to this place again!
