Usually, we get takeout or delivery from here, but today we ate in for the first time and now I know I will be eating here more often. We loved everything. Also the welcome soup is so tasty, which is included with your meal. They had two kinds of soups Fideo with beans and also a lentil soup, vegan. The homemade salsa is delicious. We also asked for and tried their homemade habanero salsa for lots of extra heat and it was perfect.

“This is our first time going to this place. I was not a bad experience. The only thing we didn't like was that it was a but windy that day and we sat outside, you could feel the dust. So we moved inside. Our server was good. He made sure to ask every few minutes how everyone was doing. Food was great. Big portion size, so I was not able to finish my plate. If you've never gone to this place, you should go. Oh and if you have fur babies (dog), they allow dogs inside in back patio.Parking: Great food.“

“Great spot, awesome service and food. Fries are awesome. Just ordered about 15 minutes ago.(got a brisket torta) Home and enjoying my meal! Definitely recommend. Employee at window was great and genuinely happy to see us. 3 orders back to back. All great timing and quality.THANK YOU!!!Parking: Parking was just a tad tedious. But not a problem, especially since it is a food truck. Food makes up for the small walk over to the window!“

“From the moment we walked in, just automatically knew the food was going to be great. The aroma was mouth watering. A waitress walked by us with a mixed drink from the bar, beautiful blue drink. Server was so attentive to our chips and salsa and drink refill. Homemade Mexican food, service and atmosphere was excellent. A must go to restaurant and now our favorite place to eat in Las Cruces.“

We sat outside and it was beautiful. There was live music, which was a vibe. There isn't much of a drink selection. I wanted a Sprite but they only had Diet Coke or maybe Coke Zero. I was in Mesilla visiting family and will definitely visit again the next time I'm in town.“

Brings back old memories when I was a kid.Wheelchair accessibility: The restaurant is older and no steps to go up“

“If you're ever in Las Cruces, NM, LUCY'S CAFE IS A MUST! Delicious food, GREAT SERVICE, and a cute, affordable small time diner atmosphere. We were passing thru from Round Rock, Tx to Mesa, AZ and found this gem on S Valley Dr close to the Walmart. Our waitress Carmen was sweet, friendly and attentive. Lucy the owner must hire folks just like herself! We'll definitely be back sooner than later!“

“WOW ? ! ? ! You want GREAT authentic Mexican food?! This Mom and Pop establishment serves really, really good delicious homestyle food at VERY reasonable prices. I got one red and one green burrito to go. I saw what others were eating and should have tried those items ... and I should've added cheese to my burritos, not that they needed it, just the way I like it. Skip El Sombrero, skip Go Burger, skip So Senior, skip Napalitos, and head to WELCOME INN CAFE. You won't regret it!“

“Small gem in town wonderful food. It might took them 1 hour to 1:30 to serve your food but is worth it. Gorditas, chimichanga , ground beef, caldo de res, green chili, chilaquiles, green queso,and are most the things that I have taste are delicious. I put five stars to service only because I think the staff is really kind it just matter that they making the food at order and takes them some time to prep.“

“The service was fast and the people were very polite. They spoke both Spanish and English, so they're accessible to many. Both the Barbacoa and Pastor tacos were incredible and very well constructed. Just the right proportions of meat and toppings for each taco. The rice and beans were okay, definitely not the star of the attraction. All in all, I'll definitely be going back often especially for their fairly low prices.“

“This is terrific food. Full of flavor. I had the green chili sausage and the carnitas tacos... delicious. Even their chips and red sauce is delicious. The service was fast and very friendly. If it is a pleasant evening, ask to sit on the patio.“

“I eat at Cocina every time I am in town from ABQ. I wish there was one in ABQ. I can not find a decent potato taco up north. Everything I’ve tried at Cocina is pure class. Outstanding potato tacos! Salsa is the best in Las Cruces since My Brothers place closed. I would give 6 stars if it was an option.“

“The food is very unique. I love the Aztec Shrimp - they are huge, wrapped in bacon on a bed of nopalitos, and smothered black mole. Also, the Cognac Steak and NY Strip served 3 Ways are excellent. Highly recommend!Parking: Plenty of parking in their parking lot.Wheelchair accessibility: All ground floor access.“

“We love this place and it's perfect when you just wanna pick up and go. They are always super nice and food is prepared quickly. The tacos are big with a generous portion of meat and two of them is like a full meal. Glad to see you guys back up and running. We'll be by this week for sure!“

“If it says spicy it means spicy! Holy cow one of our meals was inedible because it was so hot, but they took our plate and comped the meal. The service was nice but a bit slow, it sounded like the bar was backed up. Atmosphere was great and our other food a as delicious. The Margherita flight was small for the price.“

“Good food but there's only one employee working and it takes her a little longer to serve you specifically if there's more then one or two customers in front of you. But with a little patience, you will not regret itKid-friendliness: Hamburger, fries, chicken, nuggets ,“

“The price is good, especially for the breakfast special. However, the staff was unfriendly. My wife asked about menu options and the server acted like my wife was nuts for asking. The dining room is small and cramped. The tables were sticky.Vegetarian options: They will act like you are nuts if you ask about vegetarian/vegan options.“

“We moved to town a month ago and have been desperately seeking a decent margarita for 29 days. The search is over, this is the winner hands down. Found this gem on Yelp and then accidentally crashed a Virgin Galactic private party. If it's good enough for people who drink off planet, it's good enough for those of us stuck on this rock. Cocktails and a food truck and a killer courtyard, what else do you need??? Drink here soon, life is too short to waste your money on bad Las Cruces margs!“
