Lo Salvaje Food Truck

Lo Salvaje (loosely translated, “The Wild”) is the brainchild of James Beard award winner Jesse Griffiths and Spoke Hollow Steward, Josh Crumpton, and is helmed by chef Stephanie Stackhouse. The concept was born from a desire to bring locally sourced ingredients and wild-game-inspired fare to a broader audience. The menu at Lo Salvaje is deliciously inventive - think street tacos meets haute cuisine with a wild game flair.

Open Thursday 4-8 pm, Friday & Saturday 12-8 pm, Sunday 12-6 pm CLOSED 12/22 - 12/25

Distillery Tours

If you’d like to hear more about how we make Texas sotol and see for yourself how we turn a desert plant into a complex, flavorful spirit, be sure and book a tour of our distillery in Driftwood. There, we’ll walk you through our whole process, from wild-harvesting, to cooking, to aging and bottling. Plus, we’ll sample you on all three of our core products. At the end of the tour, you can relax in our tasting room. Order a Desert Door cocktail and enjoy it with a whole new appreciation for what goes into making our unique spirit.
