New Clock Restaurant has been part of El Paso Texas since the 1970s providing all who visit them with delicious and authentic Mexican and American Breakfasts among other popular dishes for lunch and breakfast. They have friendly costumer service yet some of their staff don't speak much English. As previously stated their food is delicious yet it takes them a while to serve. Two of three times I have been here it took them 45 minutes to serve. The restaurant is decorated with clocks all over. The restaurant gives you a 1960s cafe feeling. I love it! read more

I have been wanting to come back to this restaurant for sometime now. A friend took me here about three years ago. I had heard they have a $2.99 breakfast. But when I went in they had so many wonderful other delicious dishes that I skipped the $2.99 breakfast. I ordered a green chili burrito that was marvelous and chili con quest that was so full of vegetables it was more than a dip. I took another burrito home that was machaca. It was so good I wished I had purchase another one. It is not close to where I usually dine out, but I will make it a point to eat there again soon. Two thumbs up! The waitress wasn't so sure about us at first, but she was on the mark at every request and did a great job. I love the little clocks everywhere and the feel that it is an old fashion diner. When we least there was quite a wait. That says that others fine it charming as well. read more

Was looking for a good, cheap restaurant and this place fit the bill perfectly. Ambiance - Plenty of clocks on the inside and plenty of tables. They serve you, but you pay at the front at the end. Food - I had the migas (which was a breakfast special when you buy a drink) while my boyfriend had an omelet. Both were delicious and hefty! There was so much food that included beans and hashbrowns. Pricing - For the amount of food given, it's fairly cheap! The menu is also huge if you're looking for other things as well. They even have breakfast combos for 3.99! Overall, if I lived on the east side, this would probably be my go to breakfast place. It'll still be worth the drive once in a while! read more

I was craving chilaquiles the other day, and I didn't feel like driving to the other side of town (anything in El Paso is on the otherside when you're from NE). I decided to hit up a place I hadn't been to for years, The Clock. This place has been around for ages, and it has that look to it. Decor has....you guessed it, clocks everywhere. I was worried as I was driving Dyer and I didn't see cars, but once I got to the parking lot, the place was full. Good sign, especially if you've seen by recent experiences with empty restaurants. I guess full restaurants aren't going to necessarily result in positivity either. I know it was crowded, but I wish I could get the attention of my server. I literally had to keep flagging her over to order, to get coffee, refill, chips, everything. I even asked a question about one of the ingredients as I was about to order, she didn't know so got another waitress to answer for me (beans are veg friendly) and then waited awhile before coming back to take my order. I got my salsa in the beginning, but I got the tostadas with the check. I ordered chilaquiles and a chile relleno burrito, the latter is my go to tester of if I will like the restaurant. Burrito first: I did eat it, but the chile had the taste like it was starting to go. there's almost a vinegary quality to it. There was a decent amount of cheese, but the burrito was definitely overpriced at $2.99. When I got the rest of my order, I ate the beans, eggs and hasbrowns (the hasbrowns were definitely my cup of tea...I could've just had those and been happy), but I didn't eat the chilaquiles. Why? Because they weren't chilaquiles, they were enchiladas. I had a bit of an argument with the waitress about getting them replaced. She didn't want to help me out since I ate the rest of the plate. I told her, I was asking for a complete meal do over, just take the enchiladas and give me what I asked for. Finally, after "talking to someone", I got a side plate of chilaquiles. They were pretty good, but I prefer them crunchier. These were more soft and I'd say not worth the aggravation to get them. Would I go again? Probably, for coffee and hashbrowns and maybe some pancakes, but not for the things I ordered/didn't order. read more

Definitely not a place I would stop at for breakfast if it hadn't been for my boss inviting me to brunch. However, don't judge a book by its cover. This looks like an ordinary diner on the outside with nothing special. Inside, it was very accommodating and we were seated quickly. The menu is super extensive so I didn't know what to order. What I do know is that there is something for everyone. There is the usual breakfast fare, burgers, and Mexican food for example. I got the Mexican steak and eggs because that's what two of my coworkers ordered. It was amazing. I wish I found this place sooner. What a gem! You know the food is top notch when no one is saying a word once the food arrives. It was so good and it was also affordable! I think my plate was $8.99 It did take a while to come out though so don't go here if you're tight on time! read more

Avoid this place, they don't even know how to properly cook an egg. Sent huevos rancheros twice because they were undercooked. Manager said cooks didn't care she asked them to make them properly, they do them however they like. Asked them over medium and kept getting them raw in the middle. Disgusting read more

A great northeast staple. I would come here as a little girl with my family after church when it was just "The Clock". The renovations they've done are amazing; new flooring, seating, the layout even seems more open and spacious. The food is good at an even better price. They're known for their breakfast but I actually prefer their lunch meals, definitely recommend if you love cafes. read more

Best gorditas in El Paso and Nuevo rancheros in El Paso. Highly recommend, quick service

Ever wonder what a Mexican themed Waffle House would be like? Come to this place and you'll see first hand. I have to admit, I instantly became a fan of the food here. It's simple, rustic, and has a "made fresh in-house" and homely type feel to it. But when we're talking about a meal as basic and customary as breakfast, I must do what I do best; analyze each component of my meal piece by piece. I randomly felt like getting a waffle. So I tried that out and...it wasn't any better or worse than that of one from the Waffle House. Besides, I'm not much of a sweets fan. So we'll leave it at that. Next, the eggs over medium with hash browns; eggs were perfectly cooked to order. Those hash browns though....what's the best way to describe them? A deliciously, artery clogging, greasy mess! I guess they were okay, but as mentioned in my last review, I prefer my food to be a lot less greasy. Overall, I'd give them a 6 out of 10. The wife and I shared a bowl of grits and...hot damn! Those were easily the best grits I've ever had in a restaurant so far! Seriously, I can't remember the last time I enjoyed grits that much since...well, since the last time I cooked some in my own kitchen. The bacon was cooked to perfection. A fine execution of nature's candy to magnificence in "extra crispy" form. If I could give these folks an academy award in bacon and grits cooking, I would be sooooo happy. But as with most restaurants, New Clock is NOT perfect. Two major complaints I have which otherwise limit me to granting this place 4 creamy buttery bowls of properly seasoned grits out of 5.. 1.) A place this large needs a bigger restroom. Ya know...as opposed to the singular restroom they've got right now. It's just...it's inefficiency and inconvenience at its worst, fellas. Seriously, can we get an expansion team on this or something? I basically had to wait till I got home to use the bathroom since the one there was ostensibly, indefinitely occupied. I think someone either died or gave birth in there. We'll never know. 2.) The service. *sigh* Why is it the places with some of the best food seem to have like...a 50% chance of having decent service? Here's the thing: this place seems to have plenty of servers. Yet it takes them ages to return to the table for drink refills or...anything at all really. And it doesn't help that the place is louder than Gilbert Gottfried during a Howard Stern interview. I practically had to scream my order into my waitress's ear. And for those who didn't know, I'm a relatively quiet guy IRL. Another thing I noticed is how all the servers (or at least ours) seemed to be in a hurry to take our order. We had to tell her "wait a minute" twice just to ensure she got our entire order, as we are very particular with the way we like things. She frequently forgot items (like the glass of water I never got, but whatever) and I think I already mentioned how I had to wait a millennia before getting a coffee refill. Oh...speaking of the coffee.. It sucked. How bad did it suck, you ask? Trust me...their coffee blows goats! Like, it's weaker than your first wine cooler you try at your best friend's mom's house when you're 14. After we finished breakfast, the wife and I literally hightailed it to the nearest Starbucks to order real coffee with a little more stank on it. I don't always drink coffee in the morning. But when I do, I'd like it to be strong enough not to taste like tea. One odd caveat I should mention...this place gives you a chip and salsa appetizer automatically. Not too uncommon in the state of Texas or any given Mexican restaurant. However, it was certainly the first time we ever had that served with a breakfast meal. Oh well...I still ate the chips and salsa anyway and they were very not bad. Ultimately, we shall return. The wife kept mentioning how it would be a great place to take the kids and I agree. The place is family friendly, but stays crowded from open till close and is loud as hell. Still, I wouldn't mind trying one of their omelets next time around. read more

It was a fair experience having some breakfast here today for the first time. It was just before 7 a.m. when I arrived at this diner/restaurant, and it was not crowded. As I was finishing my meal, it was getting a little more crowded. I hear it gets crowded during weekend. Perhaps I was there early enough to avoid the rush. I saw folks being served chips and salsa even for breakfast (perhaps if you ordered some Mexican dish since I wasn't offered). I opted for 2-2-2 Breakfast (pancakes, bacon and eggs) for $4.25. Coffee was $2.25. Food was nothing to be excited about--bacon was nice and crisp, but eggs lacked fluffiness. Coffee was just OK, and it wasn't that hot... Service was OK. Servers here are courteous and efficient. You can seat yourself wherever you'd like. My server made a mistake for my eggs and gave me scrambled in stead of over-easy. Oh well, it was eggs, so I didn't complain. It probably was healthier than runny stuff anyway. I had to ask for coffee refill though they were busy going from table to table. Somehow they missed me. Overall, it was a fair breakfast experience. Nothing extraordinary. I guess I will continue to search for a good breakfast joint in El Paso. read more

I live a couple of blocks from the place so I always saw it during my commute. The place looks cool but the place is sub mediocre. Good: atmosphere Good: friendly service Not good: the service. They asked us for what we wanted and gave us the food.Then poof! The waitress was gone. Bad: the bacon/beans. I took a picture of the bacon. The one on the left was the old one and new was the right one. That bacon was old, dried out and greasy. Just go to another diner. Even if it's more expensive. read more

Aunthenthic Mexican Food for nearly a Decade good food one of the best in The Northeast Area recommend it to everyone.

The right place if you are looking for a local restaurant to do brunch! My friend and I had the chance to check out this local, family-owned and high-rated restaurant for brunch on Saturday. We didn't wait at all - the place can host a lot people! And there are plenty of spaces for parking! Food - great in flavor, very authentic! The omelette and the scrambled eggs were delicious. The hash brown was also great! We had a chili soup which was very rich and tasty, and my friend and I both agreed that it was the best of all! Service - very fast and friendly. The server came checking very often and was very nice! So please come to try this place if you are in El Paso! read more

Came to eat because I love their food and usually their service . Parked next to a car with 2 dogs sitting in the back seat windows rolled up and no ac on. Told the host so maybe she could try to find the owners and at the very least have them turn on the ac or crack a window. The host continued to tell me that's their business and she couldn't help. Animals lives were at hand . Very rude and unprofessional. read more

Hidden Gem! Yes it's off of Dyer, but always super packed! The prices are excellent for the plate sizes and the Machaca is my favorite. Be ready to put your name on the waiting list as it may take some time to get a seat. Must try hidden Gem! read more

Food here is super solid. I've only come for breakfast and it's all tasty. I order something different every time. Lots of locals come here and the atmosphere is really friendly and very EP.

My daughter and I have ate at this restaurant two times. The first time we ordered the daily special. My food was cold and definitely was not good. Nothing I was expecting because I had been told previously the food was excellent. My daughter did manage to eat some of her food and she said hers was fairly decent. We did have decent service from our server. We ate again, yesterday. Our food was terrible. We ordered from the breakfast menu. I got my food first. The server just brought the plate of food and sit it down on the table. Not a word about my daughters order. She sit the plate down on the table and walked off. Well, I hesitated to start eating my food until they brought my daughters order. Our server was busy talking to the other employees. We finally got her attention about the other plate of food and where it was. She went on to tell us they only have one waffle machine and it can only make one waffle at a time. How about that for service??? You are running a restaurant the size of this restaurant and you only have one waffle machine??? I am sure we are not the only folks to order waffles. Can you imagine a group of folks ordering waffles for breakfast and they only have one waffle machine to make the waffles??? How long would that take for this group of folks to get their order??? Also, I had to ask for coffee refill and when she did bring the refill it was with decaf coffee?? She poured the cup, never said a word and walked off. I took a sip of the coffee and told my daughter I did not ask for decaf coffee. Don't waste your time or money going to this restaurant. They need to revamp their server's and maybe even their chefs. The bacon I got with my order was terrible. Cold and mostly all fat and the eggs were cold also. My daughter ordered sausage, it was pathetic and her waffle came with no butter, but guess the server heard her say she didn't get butter with her waffle. She brought butter out and put it on the table and never said a word to her about the butter. We did not get a knife with our order for cutting up our waffles. I am so disappointed with this restaurant because we were told to be and sure to go there as the food was homecooked and excellent. Far from it. read more

Delicious food but staff is terrible. I sat for 30 minutes and then asked waitress where my food was. She went and checked and came back asking what we ordered cause the idiot didn't even put it in. It was the waitress/ waiter that looks like a 15 year old boy. I think that's what she was going for. read more

New Clock Restaurant - Pozole bone soup - Diners Near Me - El Paso, Texas

Really delicious! Affordable! And super friendly service! Not sure why i didnt try this spot sooner. It was more on a whim to find some quick and hopefully delicious huevos rancheros and this place was just right! Loved their shredded hash brown style for their potatoes rather than the cubed kind in other spots. Wasnt a big fan of their red sauce for the eggs tho. It was kinda watery and bland tasting. Probably from the salsa they added on top of that but overall still tasted good. Beans were savory tasting too and i like the white cheese they added to that. The setting is such a comfty, retro diner kind of place which felt very inviting. And i prolly had 3 different waitresses check on me and asked if i have been helped. Really loved how attentive they are. Its a must try! read more

Sos and Eggs was advertised as fluffy light biscuit covered in meat gravy.... hash browns on the side. Served with eggs on top of biscuit, which is definitely not expected. Biscuits were flat and hard to even cut through. Server was not cheerful or helpful... yet I could see that she was very cheerful and helpful to other tables. It was so obvious and so disconcerting that I couldn't eat my meal. When my wife finished her meal I paid and we left... couldn't get out of there fast enough. I treated this young lady with loads of courtesy but she just looked as if we'd ruined her entire day. Won't be going back ever. read more

New clock offers that comfortable diner experience every good southerner needs on occasion. What makes it stand out though is the ridiculous amount of food you get for such a low cost. And the food is pretty damn good actually. Since I live on the west side it's rare that I'll find myself on northeast dyer. That being said, I had been wanting to try new clock for a while and I found myself in the area. Service was fairly quick to get me a water and bring out chips and salsa (fresh and spicy. Big fan). I also got a soup which I wasn't expecting (nice and salty with tortilla chips and chz. Pretty good actually). I got the gordita platter and it came with pretty well stuffed gorditas and the boat load of rice and refried beans w chz and some lettuce and tomatoes with a little dressing dribbled on (hard to call it a salad but I guess that's what they were going for). Waiting for the check took a little while (I think the waitress was doing her side work so not a biggie). But all that food was 8.50. Insane. I like how expansive the menu is. If you want Mexican lunch or bfast, pancakes or French toast, they got a little something for everyone. read more

I saw this place by accident and decided it was lunch time. This place definitely has a late 50's early 60's feel to it. It is nothing fancy but the waitresses are very friendly (they kept calling me mama) and the menu has local and traditional breakfast items served all day! I opted for the ham and grilled cheese. It came with fries, but chips and salsa were brought to the table as a starter. It did take awhile for my food to come, and by the time the plate arrived I had to head back to work. The waitress packed everything for me including a fresh iced tea with lemon in a large to go cup. The prices are good and I will defiantly have to come back for breakfast. read more

Always a good time for diner food! Great prices and good quality food! It's easy to see why this place is so popular especially on the weekend! If you like diners but you want one with a Mexican feel, this is the place for you! read more

My husband brought me here for a Mother's Day breakfast. Thankfully, we beat the crowd. I was greeted at the door and asked if I was a mother and given a beautiful rose lapel to pin to my shirt. Once seated we determined what we would eat and ordered. I did notice a couple of people seated after us getting their food before us but that is not a deal breaker. It was busy and Mother's Day. The food was really good. Hash browns could have been crisped up a bit more but I did not specifically wanting them this way either. As most people have said, the staff is so busy, they are not fully attentive but I like this restaurant and will be returning. read more

Where to begin. We used to come here every weekend. Always lines out the door Saturday and Sunday mornings. 30 minute wait usually, unless you get there early.. Back 10 plus years ago, the waitresses were wonderful. Slowly they all left. Now of the two there the longest are a super bubbly one who called everyone her love or darling, and one super moody one who can be very. VERY bitchy. And a bunch of other ones who are most pretty okay. Food is pretty good. You have to ask them to make sure they don't burn the bacon, otherwise it comes out so hard it literally cut the roof of my mouth, TWICE. They have a quesadilla that is really yummy with steak and their waffles are out of this world. We went last weekend for our first time in a few months. They sat us in latest added on section and I joked to the hostess "You're not going to forget we are in here, right?". She assured us she wouldn't. We were the only ones in there. She gave us our menus and walked away. We didn't see anyone else until 15 minutes later when they sat 3 men two tables from us. She walked away without even glancing at us, even thou we were trying to get her attention. I thought, okay, NOW they will remember we are here!! Five minutes later a waitress came in. Gave them all hugs and kisses. Took THEIR drink orders (we still had just menus) and walked away. Seriously, didn't even look at us. We walked out. Done. There are plenty of good restaurants on Dyer. read more

This used to be one of my favorite breakfast spot in town. My go-to plate is always Enchiladas Montadas. Tried their queso today, definitely different. It can get pretty busy on the weekends, normally there's always a wait. Today we were lucky. The waffle is pretty good, they give you chips and salsa while waiting on your meal to come. Sometimes the servers aren't very attentive. read more

I'd been looking for another diner in El Paso to try, I keep being surprised at the lack of diners across America. I suppose I was spoiled with what I thought was the quintessential small town. So I came across New Clock on Yelp some time ago and had been trying to lock it in. We awoke on Saturday and I felt that this would be the day to attack. We walked in and were seated pretty quickly, with orders of coffee and water we progressed down the menu. I chose the machaca and eggs, my girlfriend the waffle and eggs, my friend the SOS with eggs. I enjoyed the chicks and salsa that arrived ahead of our food, reminded me of stuff my father used to make actually. I would also use that with the Machaca. I should have ordered no onion but it they were softened and did not take away from the meal...I'm just not an onion guy, when a recipe asks me for onion I only put 1/4 to 1/2. My coffee after the refill remained full to the point I had to waive of the landing before we paid the check. Solid breakfast spot! read more
