Thankfully my husband and I were driving through from Lubbock, TX and they held onto it for us! Thank you guys so much for your hospitality!”

“Been to Ruidoso numerous times. I have NO idea how we have missed this wonderful place. Traveled this time with my husband and youngest adult son. All three of us absolutely loved this place! Do not skip on the chicken add on. It was cooked exactly right and I am picky about my chicken. The chicken had a smoky flavor to it. It was absolutely delicious!”

“Love my k-Bobs! I have to travel out of the state to go get myself that world famous chicken fried steak that they're known for. Never a disappointment always a belt. Buster. The place is great. The atmosphere is even better and the service is outstanding.”

Very delicious ? I inhaled that sucker❤️”

“Love coming here for the food and desserts. The sandwiches are fantastic. The Cinnabon and TCBY is always a nice treat. The staff are always friendly and welcoming.”

“We had lunch at Anaheim Jack's today in Ruidoso, New Mexico. We haven't eaten here in about five years due to living overseas for a few years, and we wanted to see if the burgers were as good as we remembered. We had a couple of burgers, some beer, and a basket of french fries. The burgers were perfectly cooked, the beer was great, and although there were too many fries for us to finish, the overall lunch was awesome. I highly recommend Anaheim Jack's to satisfy your burger cravings. The fireplace mantal had an interesting stuffed creature with a candy bar in it's mouth (see picture, lol).”

“Absolutely loved having lunch today at Cedar Creek Market! Everything was fresh, made from scratch, and delicious. Service was prompt and the owners were very accommodating!
Stop in for some great food and enjoy their gift shop too! You will not be disappointed!”

“The older gentleman here was very friendly and helpful. We had a very nice conversation with him while he filled our order. Ordered some delicious hot chocolate and purchased some desserts to take back with me. Got a piece of red velvet cake, pecan pie, cinnamon roll and cheese cake all are very delicious. He also has a few gift items for sale too. Will definitely go back again on my next trip.”

“My Sister and I stopped by with our Mother. We were immediately greeted by a lovely woman who provided excellent customer service. The store is adorable and the tasty treats are nearly irresistible. I highly recommend the Pistachio almond cupcake.”

“I’ve been coming here daily for a week now and this place never fails. They make delicious drinks and they can customize to your liking. Staff are kind. Restrooms are clean. Breakfast sandwiches, burritos, and bagels were good! The vibe on a Saturday or Sunday morning was super community oriented.

Parking: Large parking lot with plenty of spots

“They saved my wedding! Lol. I was freaking out because our original plan for our wedding cake did not go well, SO I was rushing to find someone who could make our cake last minute. When I reached out to 1724 Cupcakery they were so helpful and understanding of my situation! The price was a BIG selling point for me as well, It was right within our budget! And OMG the cake was delicious and decorated exactly how we wanted it! All of our guests absolutely loved it!”

“Highly recommend this cute taproom in the middle of town! They brew their own beer with just the right amount of selection, and also have some great merchandise for souvenirs. Definitely stop here--support local, as the community is recovering from the devastating fire and mudslides.”

“From San Antonio TX to this little remarkable place in New Mexico. Ole Taco was delicious! The familiar simple mexican flavors were on point. We're Definitely coming back! Thank you ladies at Ole Taco!”

“My teen is a picky eater, Challenged him to try “The Kitchen Sink” Humored me & were both pleasantly surprised, Discovered liking about 10 new ingredients!

“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!”

“This KFC ? is the best out of most of them that I ever ate at. Ruidoso is doing sumthin right thats 4 sure. They need to come down to Alamogordos KFC and show em how it's supposed to be done.”

“Excelente comida, muy buen ambiente y muy buen servicio, nos gustó mucho !”

“Loved everything about this place. Portions plentiful, all parts of the meal delicious, fresh, and perfect temperature. Our server, Gabby, wad very friendly, helpful and attentive. Excellent all around. Will definitely return!”

“The best Mexican breakfast in town and priced well.”

“Grill Caliente does have the best Chile relleno I’ve ever had. I 100% agree with Marylou. It is breaded just how I like my rellenos, crispy. I also ordered the stuffed avocados. They were delicious as well. I highly recommended Grill Caliente. Great service and not too pricey.”

“Best steak, great service!”

“We have found the food and service to be excellent—outstanding nice people”
