Road tripping from Colorado to Texas and stopped through Ratón for lunch. Wanted Mexican food and…read moreyou know from Texas we have good taste. Wasn't packed midday on a Sunday but service was quick and our food came out quick as well. Food was warm and tasty, very flavorful. We got a chicken quesadilla, the burrito Colorado, and the tamale + taco platter. The environment was nice and pretty clean. I think the bad reviews here were dramatic because we had a good experience. Little tweaks here and there like more cheese on some dishes and itty bitty details but overall we had a great experience!

Oasis is one of those "don't judge a book by its cover" kind of places. We had a late dinner here…read moreone time MANY, many years ago and I remember it being good. So, finding myself in Raton again, I stopped for an early dinner. Yeah, it's attached to a motel but, again, don't judge.... The inside is bright, clean and simple. The menu has a variety of dishes from traditional Mexican to burgers and chicken fried steak. This time, I chose a Mexican combination plate to include two enchiladas (I chose the "Christmas" red and green sauces), a taco, rice, beans, and a sopapilla. The dish arrived in good time and it was plentiful! The enchiladas were the star with those savory (while not spicy) sauces. The rice and beans were okay. The taco, same. But, the addition of the sopapilla was an added treat; hot, crispy and delicious with added honey. Service is efficient and friendly. Prices are excellent for all you get. I'll be passing through here again in few days - you can bet I'll be stopping.

I ordered them that way, but they arrived hot and greasy from the deep fryer, although limp and soft. And the place was almost empty, so it wasn't because they were busy. It seems pretty obvious that they should spend more time in the fryer until they look golden brown! And if it's not obvious, maybe taste one to confirm they are crisp? But maybe that is just too difficult?

Felt extremely welcoming. This was such a fun find to wrap up our NM camping. Kind people, good food, and $5 wine! If you are passing through the area, please stop here. You will be very happy.

He makes four types and we tried the hot green and hot red. He also makes homemade breakfast sausage and hot Italian sausage. They have lunch and dinner options as well, but breakfast is served all day. Delicious! We did not have dessert, but their dessert menu is plentiful. Our server was nice and personable.
