    I was having such a hard time finding dried chiles in portales! Drove up to Clovis and oh my the options are endless, they have fresh vegetables, sweet bread, Mexican candy, meats on all sorts and a little restaurant as well! Service was super friendly and fast. Loved it 100% coming back soon!!

    Enchiladas Rancheras

    If you are looking for authentic Mexican food, this is the place to be. This place was closed to packed when we arrived. It has such a friendly atmosphere, with beautiful Mexican music playing. We ordered the Enchiladas Rancheras with Red Chili and the Mixed Fajitas. I was surprised that the Enchiladas Rancheras haD carrots and potatoes on them. We usually call them Rancheras if we put an egg on top at my house. They were delicious The beans and rice that accompanied them were good as well. The Fajita beef had a weird taste, almost as if it were about to turn bad or had been seasoned for a different dish. We couldn't decide. Now, if you have any aversion to Cilantro, you may want to skip the salsa bar. Most everything was loaded with it. My downside was that the menu was hard to understand and with a line behind you, it feels like a lot of pressure. I was saddened to see that I paid for a drink, but they do not serve Tea, so water it was. Also, they had no little cups for the salsa bar and it took a while to get some out after I requested them.

    Authentic, tasty, and fresh! I recently had lunch here with a friend and was amazed. When you walk in, you go to the counter, order food, then they give you your # and you take a seat. While you wait for your food, you can grab your salsa at their salsa bar. Their salsa bar ha/ a wide array of mild, hot and chile verde (green) salsa along with fresh cilantro, chopped onions, limes, sour cream and cheese. What I love is that everything tastes so fresh, and once one tub of salsa or condiments run out, the servers are quick to fill it. Now onto the food =] I had a quesadilla with carnitas and cheese and asked to add sautéed onions a. The quesadilla was huge! Made with two white flour tortillas, it's about the size of a small pizza and served with a side of guacamole. I also had this with a horchata (a cinnamon rice milk drink) and was pleased to see a great selection Jarritos soda in glass bottles. I will definitely be frequenting this place!

    Best Mexican food I've had in clovis. Every bite taste handmade + delicious. BEANS + RICE Their beans were super creamy and topped with cheese. It was a little bit salty, but subtle. The rice were cooked great and had that aromatic scent all Mexican rice wishes it had. QUESADILLA You MUST get their barbacoa quesadilla. The meat is stewed for a while, which adds in the softness and tender bite to the meat -along with the delicious sauce. The handmade tortilla adds to the love that was put into making this item. Highly recommend. TACOS Unfortunately, their tacos were a little on the dry side for me. Just bc they only had the meat and tortilla + onions/cilantro. I think it would have tasted better if there were some source of guacamole or sauce to it. ODD HOURS This place doesn't seem to be opened on Wednesday. Also, they close really early. So just make sure of their open hours before making the trip all the way there.

    Guys this place is awesome! They open up at 7 AM and it's perfect on the drive from Lubbock to Albuquerque. The salsa bar will blow you away! Service is fast, the homemade tortillas are amazing, and like I said, the salsa bar will flat out blow you away.

    I wish I knew the ingredients for this salsa. It is the absolute best I've ever had. Not living in Clovis anymore, I cannot find another salsa that compares to it. It makes everything taste so much better.

    The fresh tortillas coming out of the grill !

    I'm here working in Clovis New Mexico and stopping here to eat is a must!! The main thing I love about this place is the true authentically prepared MEXICO dishes. And wait for it....,, fresh made REAL tortillas made from scratch on site daily!!!! If your looking for TEX-me keep driving this is for anyone looking for REAL fresh Mexican food! I highly recommend it! Oh and you can even go next door and buy the hot off the grill tortillas by the dozen!!!!

    We were met with a smile by the assistant manager. She was very friendly and helpful. She gave us menus, and when we were ready, we ordered at the counter. Our order was served at our table along with fresh hot chips, and we had our choice of salsa from the salsa bar. I have to say, they were the best chips I've ever tasted. My mom and I shared the beef fajitas. It came with sides of lettuce, tomato rice and beans. My son and his wife had veggie fajitas and my toddler grandson had a cheese quesadilla. My other grandson is still drinking momma's milk Dinner was delicious! We had 4 generations, and we managed to make quite a mess. The staff was very friendly and responsive to our needs. I'm sure my son and his family will continue to dine here, and I will definitely be back on future travels.

    The pic speaks for itself. Amazing!!

    Friendly local Tex-Mex restaurant off the beaten path in Clovis New Mexico. Stopped by for lunch on…read moremy way back home. Friendly welcoming staff. Nicely decorated and spacious restaurant with plenty of tables and booths. The food was a little disappointment. My pastor tacos were dry and difficult to eat my experience with Pastor tacos in the past has been very juicy and full of flavor that was not the case today at this restaurant. My dining companion had an enchilada plate and said it was average and not much flavor Super friendly folks and average food. I visited with a friend who lives in Clovis and he raved about the food, so I may have just made a poor selection. He raved about the.Bierra de Chivo and the torta ahogada - so I may have to come back next time I'm in the area and try those dishes because there are so many favorable reviews.

    We stayed in Clovis on our way from San Antonio, TX, to Cleveland, NM (spring break ski trip). My…read morewife and I arrived with our 3 children (7, 4, 2) a little after 4PM for dinner (we had just entered the time zone) and the restaurant had lots of patrons. We were greeted by a hostess and several other employees and were seated right away. They brought chips (the homemade thick kind) and salsa (a chunky medium to hot). That type of chip is not our favorite and they lacked salt. The waitress (Mayra) was attentive and gave us time to order. Wife ordered the Texas Plate (#11) with cheese enchiladas. I ordered the Steak Ranchero (#7). We ordered the quesadilla (steak) platter for the kids to share. All the food was delicious with the exception of the flour tortillas that came with the meals (they seemed to be store bought mission tortillas rather than homemade flour ones we would prefer). They had a green salsa and what I think was a chipotle salsa. Both were good but the green (my favorite) was excellent. The restaurant was very clean. As with most restaurants these days there were TVs everywhere that distracted the kids, but that's not the restaurant's fault. The three meals (water to drink) plus a generous tip was just shy of $48. Definitely recommend!!
