We pulled up and were able to get a table for the 5 of us after waiting for 10 minutes. I ordered a burger with green chile and my wife ordered the Cheese Enchiladas. The kids got items from the kids menu... The burger was delicious and the green chilies packed a little heat. My wife said her enchiladas were really good. The boys ate their corn dog and beef taco. My Mother-in-law got a BLT and she enjoyed it as it was stacked with bacon. You don't have to go out of the way for this place, but if you come across it, you should definitely stop for a meal!

Now it's just my fiance and I and we would have loved a single order of chips and dip for maybe a few bucks but thats not an option. We ended up getting it anyway and the salsa was good but spicy so be aware of that. I ordered a chicken burrito smothered in queso and it was delicious! The chicken was seasoned well and the queso was very good. I could give this burrito itself 5/5 stars. My fiance ordered the green chile burger and said it was good, but said it was very salty. place seemed very clean and was well decorated with beautiful paintings on the wall. Over all good restaurant to stop at and the waitress was friendly and attentive.

It seems that a lot of restaurants have been closing lately and so I missed lunch in Carrizozo. By…read morethe time I got to Tularosa, I was famished and so chose this place over a couple of others based on Yelp ratings. When I pulled into the parking lot, it was nearly empty but the hour was late and the possible lunch rush long over. It turned out I was the only customer. I was quickly seated and waited on but I noticed that the menu was dog-eared and a lot of items were priced quite high. Maybe I was paying for the faux Mexican atmosphere. I settled on stacked enchiladas with rice and beans. What could go wrong with a standard item in New Mexican restaurants, right? It turns out that while the red chile was plenty spicy, the plate had been microwaved with the shredded beef burnt and the melted cheese around the edges of the plate burned as well. I have a policy not to send anything back as it invites a loogie, but I also have the policy of crossing an offending establishment off my list of dining possibilities. While the server was polite, the food was unacceptable. Next time in Tularosa, I'll eat elsewhere.

As a connoisseur of fine pizza that's travelled considerably for the scrumptious Italian pie: Che Palle is offering one of the strongest crust situations in the region. I'm talking the entire Southwest region of not spanning farther. The crust is clearly a well-fermented and intentionally designed wonder. It has the perfect bite of crunch and chewiness that you'd expect to find in NYC or even New Haven CT. It's the perfect vehicle for the tangy sauce and generous toppings... I can't wait to try the sandwiches here. The pizza was so good that it didn't even survive the ride back up to Alto. 2 pizzas were devoured on the ride home.
