Greeted, seated, and served by José, who was friendly, prompt, and professional. I ordered the chicken fried steak and it was excellent. The only criticism would be the hashbrowns were lukewarm. The eggs were perfect for my requested over easy. Toast was huge and tasty, the chicken fried steak was superb with the green chilie chicken gravy highly recommend! Finished off with the pineapple upside-down cake which was good, though maybe not great; served hot against the cold ice cream which was delightful.

So many people rant and rave about this place so I thought I'd try it out....Definitely a no, if you've had New Mexican food anywhere else then this place is not for you, it's not even mexican food, it's what people who have never had mexican food in their life would think was mexican food. The "salsa" was like a red chile sauce that you'd put on a burrito or enchiladas, it was like they thought they did something, but really it was flop. The service was absolutely noteworthy in probably all the bad ways possible. Our waiter would answer our questions over his shoulder as he was walking off. He never offered more water or really checked on us. The green chile stew was ok enough, but The street tacos were just steak on a tortilla, not marinated, not anything special. If you're in the mood for something delicious and cozy place to eat, this is not it. Save your time, save your money.

We ordered Green Chili Stew & Ribeye Tacos, Green Chili Stew had great Flavor, all the seeds from the Chili made it extra spicy. I enjoyed it it overall, Ribeye Tacos were also good. Rice and Beans were kinda bland.

Amazing breakfast. Staff was very friendly and attentive. The food was on another level. The pancakes delicious nice light crunch then a soft warm interior. The coffee and teas are locally purchased and very good. Atmosphere is very comfortable. 5 stars I will make this my first option for breakfast from now on. The fresh greens with the hash browns a delightful surprise. Everyone must try this place. Can't wait for dinner and lunch options. Great job everyone there!!!
