Nice that the toppings were separated on top, so you could easily remove one if you didn't like it. Fortunately, I liked them all: cucumber, tomatoes, and hard boiled egg. The meatloaf was good.

Given a choice between supporting a chain restaurant or a locally owned and run establishment,…read morelocal almost always gets support from me first. Awesome wifey found this spot during her research, so we had to check it out. The restaurant had loads of parking around it for cars and a reasonable sized lot next to it for trucks, buses and trailers. Our server managed the section of 6-8 tables well and refilled my sweet tea without request. She also brought out a basket of thin restaurant chips and salsa that was mildly hot and refreshingly flavorful. We ordered a stuffed Sopapilla which was very interesting--like a superior version of enchiladas; The Duke Burger which was bursting with flavors; and a Green Hill Chilli Burger which I found fascinating. The fries were superbly golden brown and had a particularly crispy exterior! We were so thrilled with our lunches that we ordered a piece of pie from the case. We were informed that a lady who was not an employee of the restaurant makes and sells them there. We did not catch the hint, and went ahead and ordered a Rhubarb Pie. It was a 2 star. Doughy crust, insipid filling--$4.50 mistake... That said, we will certainly return to visit whenever we pass through.

My husband and I have eaten here before a few times and the food has been amazing! This morning we had breakfast together in the diner. We ordered coffee and our food when we were seated. By the time we finished mixing our coffee and debating on why marmalade jelly isn't simply called orange jelly. Our food was already being brought out. It was freshly made with good ingredients and had a great taste. Not to mention the incredible customer service we received from the staff. This is a golden gem in the middle of nowhere, NM! If you have the opportunity to stop in for a meal, I wouldn't pass it up! Highly recommend!!! read more
