Gristmill River Restaurant
Since 1977
Once home to a cotton gin (circa 1878), the reimagined space has been considered one of the most iconic dining spots in Texas for nearly half a century. The original Gristmill building was placed on the National Registry of Historic Places in 1975 and the Gristmill River Restaurant opened its doors in 1977.
