I worked in Corona area for several years. I always loved to stop in and have a New Mexico steak. They are good quality service and delicious food well worth the price.

For a hearty meal in this neck of the woods El Corral is your place. Their green chile burger is great. I have not had anything here I did not like. They always take real good care of me every time I am passing through.

The food was good but not great! However, the atmosphere, and the friendliness of the waitress made it pleasent. Maybe, I should have had the New Mexican food instead of the cheese burger?! Cool decor by the way. Our doggies and cat had to wait in the car, with the AC on of course.

Really good Mexican restaurant!! We stopped here on our way from White Sands to Santa Fe, and it was conveniently located right on the road.
The food was very good, prices were reasonable, and service was friendly. Everything was great!! I highly recommend the green chile stew - it was so good!

Excellent and fresh food served fast and by charming ladies. We were passing through but felt just as welcome as the many locals eating here. We will look forward to our next meal here when we are near Corona! ?

If you're traveling through Corona, NM, and need to take a break from the long open roads, El Corral Café is the place to stop. Cristina is the hostess, cashier, busser, you name it! She's part of the family business, and it shows. She's got a very positive personality and is friendly to everyone who walks thru the front door. I stopped here 2 days in a row because of work. The food was made fresh and worth every penny. The first day, I ordered the cheeseburger with bacon and was not disappointed. The next day, I ordered the NM steak w/ fries, smothered with red chile, and that was even better. El Corral Café gets 5 stars from me for their great food and excellent customer serviceI would recommend them to anyone who's traveling thru Corona.
Parking: Plenty of parking out front or the neighboring street. If you're in a big rig or even an RV, there's plenty of parking just across the road.
Wheelchair accessibility: Bathrooms are not typical for anyone in a wheelchair. I saw a ramp going into the men's restroom, but it was not easy to get to. It's down a really narrow hall next to the kitchen. I didn't see a ramp going into the women's restroom, which was a little easier to get to. I also didn't notice any of your basic things like grab bars or anything else to really grab onto it needed.

Stopped in around 12:30p hoping for breakfast, but disappointed when we had to order from the lunch menu. Both breakfast and lunch menus are limited, so we assumed it wasn’t going to be what we needed…a good meal while traveling. Boy were we wrong! We “settled” on the chicken tender basket w/frys for the little one, and the combination platter, w/relleno and green sauce for both adults. It was SO good! The fry’s and chicken were also very good! Christine, the only waitress serving, seemed a bit standoffish at first, but then warmed up to be extremely friendly and efficient! We could then tell her initial demeanor was due to focusing on the lunch rush! We will be stopping here again on our way back through!! Cash ONLY, so bring enough for tip!
Parking: It’s tight to park during the lunch rush, but it started to clear out around 12:30p.
