Come with us on a photo tour of the place....
Enter la Kiva through the weighty main door:
...and here's your decent into hell.
Hang a left and you’ll find the main bar
and restaurant through the swinging doors:
Gil had gorgeous redwood trucked in from the
Russian River Valley in California to create the
substantial bar top and all of the restaurant’s
tables, including a 15 foot long one-piece
conference table. Many large clay pots from
Mexico hang from Kiva’s ceiling:
The main dining area also includes more private booths:
(Just to the right you'll find the rest rooms.)
Small stage area:
At the end of the dining area is passage to
The Greenhouse, a private room available for
special occasions:
The Greenhouse overlooks Terlingua Creek with its many tall
cottonwood trees, affording marvelous bird and wildlife
viewing. Folks have been wed in this lovely room. Here it is
just before a wine tasting.
Over by the small stage you can exit to the outdoor patio:
The palm leaf shaded patio with its water-misted picnic
tables and outdoor stage plays host to many parties and
musical performances, weather permitting. Several more
storage rooms are located adjacent to the stage.
Ah, this is where the magic happens: the 10 x 20 screened
in barbeque pit!
You can get a little Kiva BBQ magic at home with our
secret recipe BBQ rub!
More secret rooms! This little hobbit door off
the main entrance leads to the cave room...
The Cave Room boasts a small stage and is currently used for
local play performances, rock bands and special events such as
weddings and anniversaries. Hey...there's someone sporting our
Penisaurus T shirt over on the right!
The Cave Room connects to the back of the patio stage, and also
connects to The Dungeon, a small room completely underground.
NO PICTURE OF THE DUNGEON, cuz it's frickin' creepy down there...
The Dungeon’s official entrance consists of stone steps leading from
the patio:
Kiva’s ample parking lot, once an RV park, now boasts a big outdoor
stage used for large scale events such as rock concerts and Tejano
dances. David Allan Coe actually played here last November, no foolin'.
Beyond the lot toward the creek lies a secluded tent camping area.
