The Green Monster Sandwich
Stella Q.

Almost went to a place very close to this one but didn't because the prices were outrageous. Decided instead on the Do Drop In and man did we luck out!! Not sure where to even start on all the pros..prices were reasonable, service was beyond excellent..very friendly and helpful, great atmosphere with cute games to play while waiting, food was delicious, servings were plentiful and the cherry on top was their homemade ice cream!! I couldn't recommend this place enough. Will definitely be going back the next time we're in Portales and recommending it to all of our friends and family.

Great find! Driving through New Mexico and looking for a place for a lite lunch for a group of 6. Perfect place! Everyone had plenty of options; sandwiches, soup or salads. Fresh and delicious! The best part was the homemade desserts, I highly recommend the pecan pie.

Do Drop In was one of the first restaurants I found using Yelp when looking for places to eat around ENMU. From what many people were saying, it seemed like a relaxed sandwich and coffee shop where workers are incredibly friendly. And that's pretty much what it turned out to be. Their menu revolves around their signature sandwiches, although you're able to create your own. They have a variety of sandwiches, salads, and dessert items. The prices are affordable, and if you want to get a mix of items, they always offer a combo meal where you can get 1/2 a sandwich, a bowl of soup, and a drink. I've tried a few of their sandwiches, and always thought the food was pretty good. The strawberry club was quite refreshing, with turkey, Swiss cheese, strawberries, onions, and honey mustard on sourdough. It was pretty simple, and probably something I could put together myself, but it was for a good lunch. I've also tried their popular Green Monster, which has New Mexico's signature green chile in the sandwich. I thought it was okay - I liked the strawberry club more, just because the green chile was a bit too salty for me. Green chile soup came highly recommended by the workers, and I have to admit that it was fairly tasty. The sweet tea was also really good the first time I tried it; when I came back for a second visit, the tea was tasteless, so I opted for soda. Their coffee smells amazing, and the pies look so good. Sadly I never got the chance to indulge in their sweet treats, but I love how friendly everybody is. Even with quite a few tables, the place gets pretty busy during the lunch rush hour so be prepared! tl;dr - Comfort food at a decent price - sandwiches and soups won't disappoint if you're too lazy or busy to whip up something for yourself. There is free Wi-Fi; definitely a good place to study once the rush from lunch settles down.

This is my favorite spot in Portales. They have the best coffee and sandwiches in town. Plus friendly customer service and great prices. My favorite sandwich is the lumberjack though you can't go wrong with any of them. We love this place and it's a great local business that supports the community.

The Grand Re-Opening of the Do Drop Inn hasn't precipitated many changes in the establishment. For the most part the menu is the same, the decor is the same, and the overall quaintness is the same. I couldn't be happier. I was very glad to see that the new owners kept my favorite sandwiches, and even more glad to see them use the outside dining space for musical entertainment during July. Whether you want a place to hang out on a weekend evening, or just want a sandwich from a great local eatery, the Do Drop is probably right up your alley.

If you are looking for true authentic Mexican (Mexico) food items you have discovered gold! They have candy, and canned goods and a huge deli, and even a very impressive butcher shop, and bakery! They don't fool around at this place they are dedicated to providing authentic goods and services at an extreme level! This place believes and practices Azteca Service! They recently opened a full service restaurant next door called Servicio Azteca This has quickly grown into standing room only at lunch! My opinion is that the local people have learned that they make fresh tortillas both corn and flour on site daily all from scratch!!! NO preservatives ! And they sell them by the dozen. I always buy a few dozen to take back to Arizona. I have personally witnessed over twenty people standing in line with 10-20 dozen each. Honestly it's a little strange until you have tasted one then you realize the craze! Now it's not easy to find, so I'm gonna leave you a few tortilla crumbs to help you find it! It is directly behind the long john silvers that is on highway 84 just a few blocks east of prince street and state highway 84. When you get to long john silvers turn south on maple street and then your there. You may even see semi tractor trucks parked in the street with truckers news spreads fast Now I should mention this, don't be surprised that there is no more parking, I'm telling you it is an extremely popular.

Mama Mia!!! Now that's a fresh pizza !! Snappy's pizza is a hometown favorite serving a solid pie…read moreand some interesting interpretations on the Italian favorite. Service here is pretty much no fuss. You come in, you pay for your pizza and you get out. Small talk is at minimum and if you come by to take out your pizza you'll notice drivers constantly coming in and out and the cashier people tending to calls, not much eye contact is made and If you do it just feels weird. In terms of atmosphere this place has a bit more soul than your run of the mill fast pizza joint. You still have a tiny waiting area, but it isn't as generic and you see cool tomato art of their logo in random places I got a large supreme pizza, the loaded taters and some snappy wings. The loaded taters are potato wedges with some cheese and bacon, served with ketchup they were decent not overly dry and some of the cheese got a bit burnt but those bits are actually some of the better pieces. The wings where reletively small but had decent flavor. They had a honey mustard base something you don't normally see from chains. They had a sweet tang and you could definitely taste the mustard and it wasn't overbearing. Low point for the wings was crispiness. Even straight from the kitchen they seemed soggy. The centerpiece of it all was the pizza. It reminded me of a Costco pizza in terms of taste. The ingredients where fresh atleast 90% least some of them. I was a bit upset when I saw canned mushroom though. I'm a huge mushroom fan and seeing the canned stuff on a pizza made it slightly sad. It was a good pie though, lots of good savory flavor and a decent sized pizza for Large compared with the competition. Strangely a large amount of their pies have ranch as a base, guess it's really hot in the area to lather up the stuff, but ranch and pizza have always been good. Additionally you get a little cup of garlic butter like the competition at Papa John's. For $27.60 I got a large supreme with 10 wings and the loaded taters with a deal. Price point I would say is slightly above average for a pizza joint but can still can compete with the competition. Overall If you want some hometown flavor and are willing to pay up a bit, this place wouldn't be half bad. You get a decent pie and what you are paying for are the little extras like the pastas, sandwiches mustard wings and other extras that you would normally not be able to get if you went to a fast pizza place. They also place a decent amount of toppings into their pizza compared to other places. Don't forget to snap a pic and revel in the glory of pizza goodness while you Nosh away dipping pizza in ranch and garlic butter.

When we first entered the store (please note that there are cart wipes by the entrance, which is always nice), I was surprised to see a section at the entrance of different jars of salsa, a lot of which were made here in New Mexico. We also saw some boba milk tea and flavored coconut milk drinks with aloe (which are products of Thailand) and ended up purchasing a few. The drinks themselves are actually not too sweet and tasted pretty good. Pricing was ~ $1.29 per bottle, which wasn't bad of a price. The produce section (all the way to the right hand side if you are facing the back of the store) was small but had plenty of variety of both fruits and vegetables. We ended up purchasing cucumbers that were 2 for $1 since it was on sale. I liked the gourmet cheese section with the variety of cheeses available (which is right by the produce section). I also liked the wine and beer section, which was nice to see local beers and wines made here in New Mexico (which I ended up picking up a bottle of New Mexico made Moscato to celebrate my upcoming birthday). We ended up purchasing a few other items in the store, which pricing seemed to be fair for what they were. One thing that I do want to make mention is that we both thought it was kind of weird to see 2 (separate) people in the store shopping without wearing a mask. I know that an employee saw these people but did not bother to tell them (even though there is a sign by the entrance to inform customers that they are required to wear a mask before entering). But other than that, we had a good experience on this shopping trip and would definitely be a regular if we lived in this area.

Husband went here to pick up some fruit for us to eat while on the roadtrip. Also got twinkies,…read morewater bottles and some beef jerky. Glad there was a grocery store in town!

We received a recommendation from Mike from the Sunset Motel. He told us Del's was a great place…read morefor dinner and cocktails. He explained the restaurant served New Mexico liquor that tasted like regular liquor. So we found the restaurant in Tucumcari, NM. We got there at 6:15 and we should have arrived at 5:00. There was a wall of people waiting to be seated. We received a beeper that would tell us when we could be seated. We waited for 45 minutes and the four of us we were seated at a round table in the bar. Our servers name was Corina, she was amazing, she was the bar tender for the entire restaurant and was the server for 4 tables in the bar. She took our order for drinks and our appetizer and entrees. We all wanted the fried Catfish, however we found out they were completely out of it! And Friday they would have a shipment. My husband and I ordered the meatloaf with mashed potatoes and grilled vegetables. My husband ordered the baked potato with coleslaw . Our friends ordered the same. The meatloaf was delicious and the sides were tasty. We really enjoyed the quiet setting in the bar. There were lots of tables toward the entrance, and the people waiting for a table spilled out by the diners. So we were happy to sit in the bar where it was quiet and more intimate. We were so happy with our food and drinks we decided to go back the next day. So we arrived at 4:45 and requested the bar. We were served by Toni, she was a kick! We loved her sense of humor and her service. We had another wonderful meal. We wanted to reorder the meatloaf because it was sooo good. Unfortunately they were out of it! So we had catfish which was good. Toni made the best martini's using all distilled liquor from New Mexico . They don't have a regular liquor license which is extremely expensive in NM. The martini's were delicious, Toni knows how to make great Martin's. We highly recommend this restaurant, get there early wait times can be 45 minutes to an hour!

A varied menu with a little bit of everything on it for all kinds of taste buds. After giving the menu a good look, I opted for their Chili Relenos with Hatch chilis. A nice serving with a pair of well prepared chilis, rice and beans with some diced tomato and lettuce. It was a good meal, the rellenos were done well, nice cheese stuffed, breaded and fried near perfect. All in all a good meal 4 Stars a solid choice in a town with limited options 01321
