This place continues to be one of my favorites. Our Senior Luncheon Group has voted on dining here yet again, and with advanced reservation, the staff went above and beyond. With our local Denny's closed, no one else in the area offers steak and eggs for breakfast, so this is a treat. My steak was tender and had just the perfect char to make it sooo tasty! Anjelica, our waitress, was so accommodating too. This place is a local favorite and that honor IS well deserved. read more

The great staff,cooks,owners. I like a varied and complete menu with the food. Its a necessary stopping place in this part of the southwest. My aim is to visit and to be back as many times as I can manage. read more

It's one of the few places to get a bite near Percha Dam State Park and the hours vary by day of the week (and, perhaps, depending on the season). We were fortunate to find the Arrey Cafe open on a Friday evening and it was busy! We were immediately served chips and salsa. They were out of fried chicken so we opted for the green chile cheeseburgers (1/4 or 1/2 pound), which came with fries. Excellent burger! To quench our parched throats, we had enormous arnold palmers (1/2 iced tea, 1/2 lemonade). Several different fresh pies-by-the-slice were available for dessert (I had apple and it was delicious). The prices are reasonable and the wait staff was friendly and efficient. Highly recommended! read more

Arrey Cafe - a windmill, a sign, and posters on a wall - American Near Me - Arrey, New Mexico

We love this place for breakfast on the weekends. I especially like it, as the full menu is available all day - that means I don't have to eat eggs for breakfast :) Lots of New Mexican specialties (I'm a fan of the relleno and pinto beans), menudo on weekends and steaks on Friday night. It's out in the small town of Arrey, but worth the drive or a great pit stop if driving thru. Cash only (there is an atm next door at the market). read more

Extremely clean and friendly, but everything tasted like it came out of the freezer premade and fried. We couldn't even finish our lunch. My husband ordered a burger and it was a premade patty (not even a good one ) and I got the steak fingers and they were tv dinner quality. read more

Clean place, nice waitress: ordered the 1/2 pound green Chile cheeseburger: $11. Got a burger which resembled a Mc Double from the value meal only on a bigger bun, with green chiles on it. Overcooked almost burned skinny patties which looked like the standard 1/8 lb frozen type. Great fries though. My wife had the breakfast enchilada for $12, which she said was good. For a New Mexican cafe to put out such a piece of crap Green Chile cheeseburger is a shame as it's a standard at New Mexico cafes. Way overpriced for what I got, though my wife's plate looked great. read more

Food Service Ambience It was a terrific all around experience. The service was very well done. The food was very tasty. The ambience was comfortable. The area is rural and quite pleasant. My compliments to the staff and ownership. It's been a mainstay for years. Thanks for being a must go destination in the greater southern portion of New Mexico. read more

The most important is their great customer service! Their food is very delicious and tasty. The setting is very clean and comfortable. Staff is very friendly to all who eat at the cafe. Kudos to the Arrey Cafe!! read more

This tiny lil gem is right in the middle of a small town. The people greet you with huge smiles such a sweet feeling of home. I have been here a few times and the food has never let me down! If you are ever in town stop in and have a warm meal. You won't regret it. read more

I stopped by to get their Friday Steak dinner, and to my surprise, the steak was cooked to perfection. It was delicious. I had the sweet potatoe and it was delicious too. I will be back for another Friday. read more

Salsa & Chips waiting for us at the table and all we had to do was squirt the salsa from the catsup type containers into a bowl. 4 Stars The 6 six of us ordered a variety of food from the menu: Chicken Fried Steak w/ Fries (two orders) 3 Stars Burger & Fries 3 Stars Combination Burrito 1 Star (nothing like the picture that caused her to order it. Bland unseasoned ground beef and beans.) Chile Relleno Plate 4 Stars Tamale Plate 4 Stars Fish n Chips 4 Stars They also gave us a free slice of german chocolate cake for dessert! 5 Stars. We all enjoyed our meals, except for the Burrito. Either get rid of the photo or make the burrito look like it and season a little better. Service was good. Old school building. I recommend. read more

First, the salsa is great. Ordered the chile relleno plate, and well, the rellenos were just "o.k." Not awful, but not great either, just mid...o.k. Rellenos are my favorite food in the universe, so those are always the first thing I try at a new restaurant. The main thing I didn't care for was that there was too much cheese, and or too strong of cheese. I'm not sure what cheese was used to stuff these, but it was some sort of Mexican white cheese. maybe a goat cheese or maybe asadero, Oaxaca, or Cotija? I've had so many different rellenos, most of them with white cheese, but never this.... I don't think (My favorite rellenos are made with cheddar). It was very strong and overwhelming. The other thing was that the relleno was covered in a glob of cheese and little to no green chile sauce... just chunks of green chile that seemed old, slimy and a day away from moldy. Still, it wasn't horrible (really, no green chile flavor at all). The beans were ok (no flavor). The fideo was ok (no flavor). Wasn't a lot of flavor here at all, besides the overwhelming cheese. Maybe I have covid, but I didn't taste anything but the chips and salsa... and cheese. The service was excellent, btw. So I guess my review is the exact opposite of the others here, lol. read more

Friendly staff and tasty food. Much needed relaxing atmosphere for us on our long drive.

This place I'd so good I've been going here ever since I was a toddler and the food has never failed. It also has great service and the waitresses are so nice. This place is definitely a must go to. read more

The chile relleno at this little roadside joint is absolutely amazing -- a huge Hatch green chile stuffed with cheese and covered in delicious chile sauce. Puts other versions of this dish to shame. The green chile burger was not quite as good as others we had during a 2-week trip in New Mexico but still hit the spot. read more

My son and were traveling and stopped at the Arrey Cafe three times in three days. We had the Friday night Ribeye special and breakfast on Saturday and Sunday. I wish I had pictures of the Ribeye, it was huge! I could only finish half. I had the the Huevos Rancheros both mornings and my son had the Chicken Fried Steak one morning and the Breakfast Burrito the second morning. Everything was great! This the heart of chile country and they do it great. The service is great and everyone is friendly. The is a fantastic, small-town cafe. The prices are more than reasonable and the portions are a decent size. Be prepared, they do not accept debit or credit cards. They are only 3 miles from 25. We'll be back the next time we're are traveling 25. read more

Thoroughly enjoyed my huevos rancheros on our first visit. Cafe was very neat and clean. Stopped by for lunch the next day and the blueberry pie was outstanding. read more

I'm a little biased as this is my extended families restaurant, but let me tell you this is my favorite place to eat when I come home. I almost always get the burgers because they're incredible, but you'd be hard pressed to find something on the menu that isn't good. I'd recommend the tacos because they're delicious. Also, if you come in on a Friday night there is a "steak night" where you can get an incredible steak and some incredible sides. Come early, though, because it'll be packed! It's a dinner special and everyone is there. Also on Sunday's they give free cake to anyone sitting at the table. The waitresses are always super nice and try to serve all the guest as best they can. Highly recommend!! read more

My bro and family love to eat here, and I can see why. While the menu is pretty ordinary Mexican, the food is good, quantities are great and the staff and service are top-notch. It's also quite inexpensive. Not far off I-25 and doesn't look fancy, but if you get there after church lets out on Sunday, the place is jammed with locals, so I highly recommend a stop here for good, solid food and a fine, family atmosphere. read more

Great local cafe for a good burrito and Agustin Fresca.. Generous portions and red and green Chile makes a perfect combination.

great shrimp cocktails but dirty place, after eating a bit near a window i started to notice alot of dirt and even spider webs with tons of spider eggs in them and what looked like to be silk worms, lost my appetite and had to leave. needs work read more
