The food was ok. You could taste the grease on most of it, from the fries to the sopapilla, it was overwhelming to say the least. It was super religious in there which I thought was weird. I probably wouldn't recommend it to anyone driving through nor would I go back. I did like our waitress though, she was straight to the point.
It was okay. I heard about this place from a coworker and I drove from Albuquerque to Las Vegas NM, and it wasn't worth the drive or the price we paid. $50 just for me and my husband.
I was returning home from a Mountain Man muzzle loading activity innorthern New Mexico and stopped for lunch. Very nice place and excellent service and good food!
