What really blew me away about TCs was the not just friendly but just plain nice good people who work there- thank you Heather and Cindy!! The food was good diner style fare- I had the heuvos rancheros and my eggs were cooked perfectly. I ordered half green chile and 1/2 red chile. I didn't care for the red- it was more chili than chile if you get my meaning. My husband's burger was tasty and the fries were perfect crispy diner fries. My son had a pancake, to which they very generously added chocolate syrup and a bit of whipped cream. He was over the moon about it, saying it was the best pancake he'd ever tried. He's brought up TCs a few times over the past couple of days and is very much looking forward to going back. read more

Stopped in for lunch. Traveling partner spotted a full parking lot with a couple of LEO's there. Figured it had to be good. Humble establishment and we had to wait a few minutes for a table. Typical cafe decor. Waitress was quick with our drinks and food. Both of us ordered beef burritos smothered in green chili sauce. This was great! The flavor and heat was what I expected of a green chili dish in Colorado. Highly recommend! read more

Was HUNGRY and it hit the spot. Had a green chili smothered hamburger & fries, was so good I ordered a 2ed. Dinner rush started at 6pm and filled the restaurant quickly. Friendly service. The German chocolate cake looked delicious. Support your tiny local diner. read more

TCs Diner - Smothered hamburger. - Mexican Near Me - Walsenburg, Colorado

This place a year ago was 5-stars. No steak for protein, only ground beef. The red and green sauce very well seasoned but the salsa was way off; too thick, more like a paste. More heat than flavor. A star deduction for selling chips and salsa for almost $6 and extremely too salty. read more

What an amazing treat on our road trip! My boyfriend and I stopped here to grab a quick bite on our drive and were so happy we did. First, thank you to Our waitress for being so kind and welcoming. (Everyone was) Second, our meals were amazing! We got the beef taco dinner with homemade salsa. I am drooling thinking about it. And my partner got the chicken enchiladas. Not only did he clean off his plate but he said they were the best enchiladas he has had in a while! Definitely a lovely hidden gem and will be hitting this place again on our way back! read more

Smothered burger!! Delicious like everyone else says!!! The chili kind of reminds me of the East Coast style chili on hotdogs!! Great service! Coming back to try more! read more

Stopped by on the way home from Texas. An unassuming building with very good food! Home style Mexican food. Excellent green chile and pinto beans. Husband declared the smothered beef and bean burrito as "delicious." I had a Kid's meal with a choice of 2 items out of 4 - I didn't think I'd finish a regular meal - chicken enchilada and a taco with rice and beans. The guacamole was okay - did not taste homemade. Rice was okay. The chicken breast inside the enchilada was plain, not very flavorful but the green Chile was spicy and delicious. Service was friendly and fast. read more

Very friendly people! Stopped here on way from Santa Fe to Denver. Wife and I both had omelets, very tasty. Didn't have the German Chocolate cake available so can't speak to it but the Butter Pecan cake looked delish. Would recommend. It's a small roadside diner but the lot was full of cars - good sign. It did not disappoint. read more

Service is very family oriented, super sweet wait staff. The inside has 7 booths & 6 tables so very homey. The food was made to order yumminess. The average plate between 10 to 12 dollars. So economical too, especially if traveling with the family. read more

TCs Diner - I forgot to take a picture of my Mexican Hamberger. - Mexican Near Me - Walsenburg, Colorado

A great family diner. The service was friendly and very helpful. Our food came out quick, hot, and it was tasty. Excellent burgers are sourced by a local butcher. Anytime we make our way through we'll be stopping in for a good meal and friendly service. read more

Nothing fancy. Just good food, good service, and good portions at a good price. We will definitely eat here again.

Quite possibly the BEST Mexican food we've ever had! The food is all made from scratch (even the chips and salsa). And even though you'll be full, you have to try the German chocolate cake. This tiny cafe will definitely be on our must-stop list the next time we're traveling on I-25! read more

Best little local serving Mexican/breakfast/burgers!!! My son and I both had Cheeseburgers that were easily a 10 in my book, and both chose fries. Those meals only 8 bucks each. My husband had the beef and bean burrito dinner w green chili. It came w pinto beans and mex rice. The pinto beans were so good they tasted like my mom made them!!! I tasted everything on his plate. He ate half of it, and then said he HAD to eat the rest. Is was too good to leave on his plate! We saw a plate of breakfast food go by and it looked delicious. The small restaurant stayed full the entire time we were there w our waitress running hard to keep customers happy. What a great surprise, and best choice we could have possibly made for lunch. Forgot to mention that the restroom was the cleanest I've seen anywhere in a long time, and I've been to lots of restaurants. read more

Amazing, small little dive with high quality food. Don't sleep on the homemade cake sitting on the counter either! Highly recommend.

We normally go every Friday always great service and the waitress always knows the table and knows what we normally order and what our drinks are read more

Heard this was good and went in for lunch. The place was packed so I asked if I could sit at the counter. Waited for a menu or something... Talked to both waitresses about the yummy cake on the counter. A table of folks left and I was asked if it was ok if a party of 2 could have the table. I said sure. They were waited on and I was still ignored. So after being there 15 minutes and not even given a menu, I left. Guess I'll never know if the food is good or not. read more
