This was maybe the third time I've eaten at the Rails, and none of them have been "Fine Dining"…read moreexperiences (contrary to what they might label themselves as on Google). The Rails is Fine Dining if you've never been past the Curry County line. I ordered the "Fettuccine Michaelangelo with Ribeye Bolognese;" my wife ordered the Blackened Salmon. I put my dish in quotes because, while the name might inspire a sense of grandeur, what the "Fettucine Michaelangelo" actually constitutes is about 3/4 of a pound of Barilla pasta (prepared fresh in-house, out of the box) and maybe 2 ounces of regular ground beef with a few decorative varnishes. Really, it was just beef stroganoff, and not even very good beef stroganoff (certainly not $30). I've had better in the DFAC at Camp Lemonnier. My wife's salmon was fine, nothing to write home about. The doctored up mashed potatoes were a little bland and definitely didn't taste prepared in-house. To sum up the totality of my experiences of the food there...I don't think they make 80% of their menu in-house, which is pretty damning for a restaurant that has the entirety of Clovis convinced its an upscale experience. Most of their menu tastes like it came on a truck from a shipping facility in Albuquerque that isn't even on par with what Darden restaurants order in bulk. That being said, the food isn't completely terrible and inedible. It's just absolutely not worth what they're charging for it, and it's either dishonest or ignorant to pretend it's fancier than it actually is. It's a 3 star hotel restaurant wearing a 4.5 star veneer. It's lipstick on a pig. It's the Key and Peele skit where Jordan Peele wears a tuxedo to enjoy the hotel's Continental Breakfast, and treats it like a special occasion. Food aside, the service is pretty average to below average. Other reviews highlight the service, so maybe my experiences have been one-offs, but given the trend of restaurant service in Clovis, in general, I'm reticent to discount them. Our waitress was nice enough, but she was unable to answer even basic questions (like which salad dressing she recommended). She did let us know the dressings aren't made in-house (another tell). I've worked as a prep cook in a local restaurant that branded itself on par with Chilis and Applebees, and I had to make their (wider selection of) dressings from actual ingredients every day. Most of the servers *might* be qualified to be front of house at a Cracker Barrel in any other city not isolated from the rest of civilization by 100 miles, but "upscale" waitstaff they are not. So is the story of most restaurants here. It is what it is. Overall, pretty mid experience. The atmosphere and concept are nice, but they're nothing more than a nice coat of paint that only serves to convince those who have never actually been to an upscale restaurant. Expect to spend a minimum of $100-$150 for boxed pasta, Choice steak, and Sysco™ Thousand Island from a frozen plastic bag. Save that money for gas and go somewhere nicer in Lubbock. They have trains there, too.

I don't know who owns or runs this establishment but you definitely need to make changes in so called management.

Best Gordita to Date…read more I got a ground beef gordita for dinner not expecting much, but when my order came I was surprised by the smell and sight of it. The meat was not dry at all and was stewed in tomato, peppers, and onions giving the most savory taste. The gordita shell is soft and has a thin fried crust I could easily cut and bite into. It did need salt to enhance the flavor, but it was already in my bag before I could ask for it! The pico de gallo was perfectly sized and fresh as heck. The salsa is spicy and tasty. I'll definitely come again every time I pass through. I'll be thinking bout this gordita often.....

The buffalo chicken was alright, but they were dry and overcooked.

Salty Mermaid Cajun Seafood Boil is located inside Red Arrow Entertainment in Clovis, NM…read more Before Adam F.'s etouffee complaint on 10.26.2025, we saw raving reviews on Yelp and Google. Our lunch visit was on 10.12.2025. My daughters gravitated towards the mermaid photos hanging above each booth. There was a fake aquarium at the bar. Still, it was mesmerizing to watch. I made my girls get on the shark with the saddle. Good solid embarrassing core memory for the pre-teens. Lol. Our waitress was very kind and attentive. She was quite honest when she said she would prefer another employee to make my margarita. + Salty Mermaid margarita ($9) - I liked it! + Yard Bird ($13.99) - my oldest requested the chipotle aioli sauce on the side, but she ended up enjoying this chicken sandwich + Fish Tacos ($12.99) - I wasn't crazy about the slightly over-fried fish. The batter was a bit like that I would use for catfish. Hefty portion of fish, though. And I hated the Tropical Coleslaw (with pineapple added). I love pineapple. Love coleslaw, but not mixed and not their recipe. Something wasn't right. + Shrimp Scampi ($19.99) - I wish I had ordered this because my youngest allowed me to try a bite. Simple yet satisfying. She never received her side order of fries and we kept forgetting to ask about it then she didn't want them anymore. This is a fun place. I would be back... order a drink. Figure out the best item on the menu.
