This definitely isn't the most orderly grocery store out there (random food packages consumed by the owner left on tables, some frozen goods packed into Ziploc bags, items in random locations), but it is way better than not having an oriental grocery store in NM. Apparently they used to be located on Thornton, but moved to Main Street away from the busy center road that takes you down Clovis. Don't be alarmed if it feels like you're going the wrong way. K's Oriental is nestled among the various houses, located right next to another oriental store. Odd, but we decided to go to K's since the Yelp reviews sounded promising. Before we had taken the trip to Clovis, we saw that some reviewers mentioned the owner making orders of bulgogi and kimchi. Since there isn't any good AYCE KBBQ nearby, we decided to take a chance and order 24 oz of bulgogi for around $15 or so. Reviewers mentioned that it was good, so we took a chance. Upon walking in, somebody was actually buying some other order of meat that the owner had prepared, which looked like a good sign. The store seems like it's both the owner's house and a small grocery store mixed into one. There are a ton of good items that would have definitely kept me satisfied if I needed to stay in Portales for awhile. From ramen, to Asian sauces, to Asian vegetables (I definitely would have liked this since all I ate was basically broccoli) to frozen goods - you can pretty much find anything and everything here. If you can't find it, ask the owner and she will try to order it for you if she is able to. She has Chinese items, Filipino, Japanese, Korean, Thai, etc. So the bulgogi ... we had thought the bulgogi was freshly prepared, but it seemed like it had been frozen for awhile. Not something that was newly made. For $15ish, that's a pretty steep price for just a tub of bulgogi. But maybe it would taste amazing with the tub of kimchi we had bought (I think the kimchi is divided into tubs from a large tub of kimchi that wasn't personally made by the owner). We warmed up half of the bulgogi, prepared it with rice, took a bite ... and we were very very disappointed by how salty and un-bulgogi like the meat tasted. So salty there was NO sweetness of that bulgogi marinade at all. It took several mouthfuls of rice to counter the saltiness. Not sure what the other reviewers were talking about, but this was definitely no good. Kimchi was also way too salty ... and only got saltier as it sat in the fridge. tl; dr - I wouldn't buy any of the foods prepared and packaged in tubs. Everything else should be okay. Credit cards are accepted, but cash is preferred. I would definitely visit again, but would not order the bulgogi ... or kimchi.

The onions I recieved didn't even seem to touch the pan. But it was still a delicious dish. The waitress was great! Wonderful sense of humor.

This little diner in Tucumcari, NM has extensive menus for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The service was very friendly and hospitable... encouraging me to take a seat while I waited back on August 2, 2026. It was one of the waitress's birthday which made me super happy but simultaneously sad because it was also my youngest daughter's birthday - she was in Cali at the time visiting her dad before school started. I DIGRESS... There was a variety of seating arrangements. The chairs had really cool upholstery beckoning to the 50s era in the area. One dish in particular caught my eyes: Southwest chicken fried steak ($19.49). I had it with green sauce. I almost chose Christmas style - red and green sauce. The green beans and mashed potatoes with cream gravy were just fine. So was the roll. The steak was mostly tender, savory, and hearty. I was able to take the sauce and breading off to share with my canine. They also sold souvenirs. They still seem to be recovering from a fire from the previous year especially with their prices - a bit high in my opinion. I'm a fan nonetheless.
