Virgie's Restaurant & Lounge

Great atmosphere...laid back and comfortable. The food is wonderful! Best tamales I've ever had! My husband loves the beef enchiladas. We ate here 23 years ago on our honeymoon, and we eat here every time we're in Gallup. We've encountered the same waitress for years. And the owner has visited with us multiple times. Great food and great service!

We’re from Michigan and stopped off for something to eat. What a gem this place is! Exceptional customer service, delicious food, and a welcoming environment. If I’m ever back in NM, I’ll be stopping again.

We were lucky enough to have our waitress be the fourth generation of the family that works/owns the restaurant. They are currently short staffed so their hours aren't great but worth stopping in

Love the chili combo of red and green I had the chili burger and fries also our waitress Cecelia amazing and sweet .I didn't get the name of the other waitress that filled my ice tea and wasn't even my waitress.love this place.

Super friendly service and great food. The homemade tortillas were amazing, so different than store bought. Lots of locals eating here which is a good sign.

Not the same service and food portion smaller. Still good taste. I'm sure alot to do the inflation and cost of doing business. We'll still turn.

The wings are delicious. Thank you.

On are home we stopped got some food to good the taco shells were as hard as rock we ate what we could i got food poisoned ! Will be making a call to the health department...

This is a Route 66 classic and a Gallup tradition. The servers are very friendly and work hard to ensure their patrons are well taken care of. I ordered the #13, Three Enchiladas, beans and rice. The meal was served hot and well prepared. I enjoyed the one beef, one chicken and one cheese Enchiladas very much. I requested both red and green sauce, both of which very very flavorful and not too spicy. On the side I ordered the Virgies beef stew. The vegetables and beef were very tender and flavorful resulting in a truly great beef stew.
The restaurant features a comfortable abd casual environment where all will feel welcome, and yes including the children. When I a n in the Gallup area I always stop by Virgies, they never disappoint.

Visited again after 2 yrs, nothing changed, same greasy food

My husband ordered tacos, enchilada, refried beans & rice. Sadly the taco shells were store bought pre-shaped processed hard shells. But yet they served a tortilla on the side that was homemade that they quoted they make fresh daily, which was very good other than being served cold. Is enchilada was okay but they took the tortilla and tucked the ends in so it was a very small enchilada. I had a patty melt with green chili sauce and it was very very good. The french fries were weren't all that great either, they were not cooked long enough they weren't even brown. The restaurant was very clean, the service was very good. Server asked us if we wanted salsa and chips, we said yes assuming that they were complimentary but they weren't, they charged us for those.
