We were surprised to see we walked into the 6th best restaurant in New Mexico. Once the food came…read moreout, we started to understand why. Everything tasted as if it was freshly prepared in a close friend's home. The food was spiced well, the cheese on the bean was melted, and portions were great. The service was comforting too. The inside feels homey, bright colors, and cool from the strong AC. That is a bonus in the desert heat. The only downside is that chips and salsa were not included. I would have loved to try some other salsas with my chili colorado plate. Their salsa verde on the chimichanga plate was fantastic.

We really enjoyed Rizo tonight. We found it on yelp and we are so glad we went there for dinner…read more The 2 guys started off with beer and my friend and I had margaritas, which are bottled drinks at Rizo's. For an appetizer, we shared chips and salsa and they brought a green salsa that was spicy and a red salsa which was mild. We enjoyed mixing them together. Our waitress Cheyenne was awesome. My husband and I shared shrimp fajitas with corn tortillas. The fajitas came with a salad and rice and also guacamole, cheese, lettuce & tomatoes. There was plenty for both of us and the fajitas were delicious. The shrimp were really big. My friends got a bean burrito and a chicken dish which both came with rice and beans. They liked their meals as well. We ended the meal with caramel churros for dessert and they were fantastic. I highly recommend this restaurant. It is cute inside.

La Hacienda felt like such a treat to me! I had been traveling all day to get to White Sands and…read morewas so hungry for something local instead of a chain joint. So, it's kinda a diamond in the rough. I walked in thought it looked a bit run down. The booths are showing some age and the tables could probably use some elbow grease. BUT the food was fast, tasty, and so inexpensive! I was really glad that I stuck it out. Server was super sweet and asked if she could get me setup with some chips and salsa while I looked over the menu. I was taken aback at the charge for it but can't start a Mexican meal without some chips and salsa. The chips were GOOD! Like fresh from the basket good. They are made in house. The salsa was good too. Very fresh with visible pieces of tomato-just how I like it. Had some heat but not overly powerful. I ordered a burrito and a side of guac as well and enjoyed both! If I make it back during my trip, I'll get the burrito smothered next time. It needed some sauce for sure. Very convenient-they have drive thru if you don't care to dine in, inexpensive, and big portions. I will likely go back before my trip ends.

You can pick up from a not-too-obvious drive-up window.

A big room with a bar awkwardly plopped down in the middle with tables spread around the room. Bar is way too garish with string lights blaring in your face. I'm normally a bar sitter but not here. Low volume country music playing what sounded like religious songs. Three TVs all playing video of the same music. Beer: Dirty Blonde is OK, smooth but not the best. New England IPA is much better. Food: A bit of a disappointment because I initially checked out the menu online only to find I had actually looked at the menu for their sister pub in Las Cruces which has way better food options. Got the taco plate - OK but not what I expected given we were in New Mexico. Service was friendly and efficient. Prices very reasonable.

Debating between Carinos and Del Taco and Carinos was closer and had some interesting menu items…read more At the peak they had 170 locations and are down to 30 nationwide now. We came in a Monday about 40 minutes before closing and it seemed like they were getting ready to end the night. No one else was in the restaurant though there were a couple people at the bar. We told them we just wanted something fast and would be in and out quickly and were seated quickly at a booth. Our waitress was amazing and still kind and energetic though it was the end of day. Free bread with garlic balsamic olive oil, bread was warm and they were very generous with the amount of dried garlic. Margherita pizza: we picked the most standard one and it was odd. Instead of cheese and fresh basil it had slices of tomato and dried basil. Crust was underdone and there was way too much cheese on it. Italian nachos: Crispy pasta chips, black olives, pepperoncinis, Roma tomatoes, jalapeños, Alfredo sauce, mozzarella and parmesan. We had it with chicken and it was interesting but drowning in Alfredo sauce.
