Restaurants in Ruidoso

“Amazing affordable homecooked food. I got the breakfast burrito (8/10) and two pecan pancakes (9/10) with coffee. It was only $20 before tip, with good portions. It's small but very charming and cozy inside and the beautiful handmade tables and woodwork really add to the charm. Super friendly staff and patrons. I had a really great visit and I'll be sure to stop by next time I'm in this lovely town.”

“Amazing food truck burger. Portions are big, I got the single patty burger all the way with the special sauce and it was great. I have a feeling I’ll be sleeping the rest of the day. Lol Will try to make it back over here anytime I’m in Ruidoso.”

“We had a large party that came in at 8:45 to celebrate a birthday and waited to be sat for a bit. May Lucero was our waitress and she was and always is awesome. Where most servers get annoyed at serving a large party so late in the evening, she served us with a smile and did a fabulous job! Servers should learn from her! We had a great evening because of her and she took great care of us.”

“such amazing coffee and drinks! the staff is friendly and know exactly what to offer! Krafty has now been my go to, and I don't even have to tell them what I want, they just know ❤️”

“The food was terrific, and the staff were so welcoming and friendly!”

“Great experience. We split a Billy the kid burger and got a side of fries and onion strings. Really good. Price is amazing. Lits of good beers on draft. Summer was a great server”

“The breakfast bowl was AMAZING! Great atmosphere, the staff are always friendly and make you feel right at home. Fantastic beer and the pizza was phenomenal! Can’t say enough good things about this place.”

“Absolutely worth it. Im skeptical about Mexican food because I love it hot hot. A lot of places claim to have spicy food, but it doesn't do anything for me. Ole Taco definitely hit spicy on the nail. The salsa has some decent kick. I ordered the adovada chimi and it was delicious. I also got the chile cheese fries and they had a good kick.”

“I so missed some good Ole brisket and came across 440 Smokehouse and OH BOY!!! The brisket just melts in your mouth.. this is one of the best tasting brisket I have had in a very long time.. glad I found this little gem.. or food truck I should say..

Very delicious ? I inhaled that sucker❤️”

“Can't say enough about this place. They have everything. Great food and very flavorful. The husband and wife owners will make you feel right at home. They also hand make tallow and lots of other things. The cookies and brittle and out of this world. A hidden gem in our beautiful town. Highly recommend!”

“OMG the best!!! Must have yogurt!! The Boba drinks are the bomb!!! Boba balls yesss. Fun games as well:)”

“This is a nice little bar owned by pleasant people. Lots of personality in the art and aesthetic. They have wine supplied by St Claire and we got a bottle it was so good. They may have food options but you really go for the drinks and atmosphere”

“Great food and service, steak was cooked to perfection. Great spot just outside of the town, so nice to get away from the crowds.”

“Awesome, perfect and delicious red velvet cake with buttercream frosting. Highly recommend.”

“Amazing service and so kind!! We stopped in for a couple of coffees and snacks and the staff was so sweet and the treats and coffee were great!! Grateful to find such a sweet spot on our vaca.”

“Great variety of sandwiches and kids meals! The staff was nice and the food all tasted amazing. Only complaint is the prices are a little expensive for 3 meals it was almost $40 but we were satisfied with our meal! Good when you are visiting and need a treat for lunch plus great location in Ruidoso”

“The chicken tenders & green chili chicken fried steak are heavenly enough to give you an out of body experience!”

“A small 8-table restaurant tucked into a corner of a small shopping plaza in Midtown Ruidoso. Relatively unimpressive UNTIL one tries the food. The sashimi and sushi were both excellent and the fish very fresh. One of the best sushi restaurants that I have tried from coast to coast. We will be eating at this establishment every time we come to Ruidoso. I would have given a solid 5 star review except that the sashimi pieces were smaller than what most sushi restaurants serve. But the food was EXCELLENT!”

“Just tried Torino’s hot dog lunch special and can’t wait to try all of their new menu items as they come out! 10/10 I’m so excited we’ve finally got a new and different restaurant in Ruidoso!”

“Garcia’s in Ruidoso is absolutely the Best Mexican Food in town and their Breakfast is great also!”

“These guys care about their customers. I don't normally leave reviews for fast food restaurants but this place deserves a 5-star rating. The staff had great attitudes, the food was delicious and came out quickly, and the manager came by to make sure everything was to our satisfaction. Best KFC experience.”

“Absolutely amazing meal. I had the New York strip. Easily one of the top 5 steaks I’ve ever had. Wife had the vegan enchiladas that were delicious. We shared a stuffed avocado and breaded Chile strips. Two new dishes that knocked our socks off. Staff were very friendly, responsive, and made frequent checks. The owner was engaging and very friendly. Absolutely on our return next year for our anniversary trip restaurant list!”

“Friendly staff. And my sandwich was loaded with veggies!”

“Really enjoyed our steaks last night. We ordered the filet and the tenderloin medallions and both were cooked perfectly and flavorful. My husband said it was the most tender filet he’s ever had. Our service was great and our server, Shayla was kind and friendly. The staff were super attentive to clearing our plates, filling drinks and checking in on us. We definitely recommend stopping by here!”
