On closer examination, not unlike panning for gold a nugget appears out of the slag. The Shack! In the New Mexican desert operating out of the carcass of an old filling station. A nondescript food truck that serves up the best steak sandwiches outside Philly. Affordable and huge portions. A family run business with undeniably amazing service. The steak sandwiches with perfect seasoning and pepper balance. Cheese (american or provolone)and mayo mixed in not layered. Also a must is the green Chile cheese fries. Fried golden and blanketed in cheese dappled in hatch chilies. Despite it's outward appearance and questionable locale a must! So if ever crossing the south west in a Hunter S Thompson fever dream STOP HERE!

It has a food truck parked outside but it's not operational. The food comes out of the smoke shack. It's weird but cute all at the same time. There are 2 tables outside where cats would've been worked on, between the smoke shop and food truck. The menu is small, which is nice and appropriate since its main business seems to be smokes. The food is fresh, cooked to order.

We were headed to El Paso and hungry when we saw the sign on the Freeway for Ramona's and New…read moreMexican style grub. Instead of our intended stop for lunch in Deming we thought we'd stop here, located in the former Kranberrys location. It was very busy on a Thursday at 1 packed with lots of locals and a few of us transient travelers... good sign! Service was a bit slow but very friendly and it was clear they were maybe a bit short on floor staff so being patient was not a problem. Portions were hearty and the food was really great... particularly if you are a fan of the New Mexico style Mexican food and love Hatch green/red chiles. My husbanded LOVED his Huevos Rancheros (he is always super critical), the red salsa was gold standard and my Chilaquilas were prepared exactly how I love them. The place is clean, family owned and operated and we will definitely stop back in! Side note- some reviews complain about the tacos... it is an actual thing for ground beef tacos to be deep fried using a hamburger patty... can't recall what they are traditionally called but that will be my next order as I am a fan.

Between 2023 and 2025 Ramona's moved from it's cozy previous location to the former Cranberry's Chatterbox. We stopped in on a Friday afternoon. Ramona and crew were filling up the former Kranberry's pretty well. One of our lunch choices is a Club Sandwich and salad. We ordered those here. They were just fine. Plus immense servings of iced tea. And...apple pie ala mode. It was all good. I always investigate the small town locations selling local arts and crafts. Ramona's has a corner for that. Quite a bit was sold out. I remember earrings. I do not buy earrings for the many discening women in my life. It is safer for me that way. We did find a large-print Paper! Road Atlas. Our swift journey from Phoenix to Las Cruces relit my fires of wanderlust. My fantasies of camping in remote, beautiful places. An ideaI could draw an arc from Las Cruces to L.A., exploring only that region on short, overnight journeys. Thst atlas was a wonderful tool forcstriking that arc, then carrying it onto state map pages. What a lovely flight of hopefulness, wistfulness and longing. Ramona's could do all that for you. They will fill ypu up with reasonable, sit-down cafe food, let you graze the local hand-mades, find a fun atlas, then send ypu down the road with your fantasies afire. Was it thecservice? the sandwich? the salad, pie or tea? No, I think it was just me. I enjoyed our time here.

I didn't know that my tried and true Subway restaurant chain had completely jettisoned their menu for a "new" one. I asked if it was unique but he assured me it was nationwide. Sadness?! May the Italian BMT RIP.... Why five stars? The four individuals on the other side of the glass! They were a machine and we were happily out the door soon after. The Super Meats sandwich doesn't taste Italian; it's more a combo of three of the old sandwiches. It was not satisfactory and half of it was trashed. What on earth is going to replace Subway? It was a staple. Sigh...

It's a truck stop Subway, so admittedly my expectations were pretty low going into it. When I got…read morethere a party of seven kids were ordering, and running in and out of line to check out The Godfather's pizza slices available further down the counter. I figured I was going to be there a bit, but the employees were super efficient and had them handled no problem, even keeping track of the shell game the kids were running with their purchases so everything was rung up right. Irritated the kids something fierce while the rest of looking on grinned knowingly. The sandwich was fresh, and the prep counter was clean which was nice to see. Granted it's still Subway, so not gourmet dining, but it did the trick and I would order here again.

I really wanted to fill my body to the brim with an absolutely hedonistic amount of deli meats and cheeses. Unfortunately the San Simon Quiznos was permanently shut down and replaced with a Subway that is also shut down. I was afraid of getting the Noble Romans Pizza, mainly due to the fact that they advertise that they can make you a pizza in less than five minutes. One of my traveling companions purchased one of Roman's bacon cheeseburgers; he said the taste alone was making him sick. However, after covering the burger in Munchies party snacks, he ate the rest of it, so who's to say what score he would actually award Noble Romans if given the chance. I got food from the gas station that both the aforementioned sandwich establishments were once connected to. I bought one Kind Bar so it wouldn't look suspicious that I was stealing a second Kind Bar for later (I'm kind of a bad boy). I also bought a pack of peanut butter filled M&M's and a lime flavored Perrier because I like my shit on bubbles. The staff was just the right amount of aloof for my taste and the decor is as minimal as it is nonexistent. Bottom line: this place is keen. Mark your map!
