We use to eat here once week, but since covid it's gone down hill. I keep giving chances for them to get it together but they don't. Every time my order is wrong or they are "out" of something. Sad. Bring back chile rellenos!!!

Great breakfast and atmosphere. I highly recommend the grits and biscuits. Coffee is excellent and our server was friendly, genuine and great conversationalist. Excellent stop on the way to White Sands National Park.

I ordered the chicken burrito with green salsa and I gotta say it was really good. Beans and rice were on point & chips and salsa were excellent! Prices were reasonable and the waitresses were very friendly. Ill definitely be coming back here when I'm in town.

patty melt was good. Onion rings were good. green chili stew was a little salty and the portion ridiculously small.

I have always liked this little place! This time, I walked out before ordering. I never was acknowledged. If busy give a greeting assuring service is coming! Nothing, so I left.

The food is great prices good, I think some of the waitresses need to smile a little and be a little more attentive. And then they get a upset because we don't leave a good tip 🤔

This was a really great experience,the server Kenyah was so amazing and she cooked our food after the other cooks walked out and left her to do both jobs. she handled it very well. They need more people like her

This place has really gone downhill over the past few years. The staff, the food, and the customer service suck now. I would recommend going elsewhere to get a good meal…

Food tastes gantadtic, service is great. It can be quite a wait during the rush. Prices are great and.portions are large. Loved my hand breaded chicken fried steak.

This is a gas station diner. We didn’t know that until pulling in so heads-up. The staff were attentive and friendly so that was a plus. The food took a long time - almost an hour breakfast for two. Dirty gas station bathrooms. Full and a cheap bill but personally would not return.
