    My friend informed me about their 29.00 prime rib special on Weds so we decided to give it a try!…read more We were seated immediately (no reservations required) and our server was very efficient and helpful (although a bit snarky and sarcastic). BFF and I ordered the prime rib special (well done) and it was fantastic (served with mashed potatoes and veggies). Mom was going to order the SF enchiladas but the server did not recommend them so mom ordered a salad instead (we appreciated the honesty). My friend does not eat meat unless it is Halal (she is married to a Pakistanian) so she ordered a side of mashed potatoes and an order of nachos (w/o meat). Everyone enjoyed their meal and also opted for dessert! Mom and I got the pecan pie (she got hers a la mode). BFF and my friend got the apple pie a la mode. We all really enjoyed the meal but the only thing was our server was just a bit too snarky which we did not appreciate. For example, she came by as we were finishing up our dessert and I thought she was picking up our plates so I was going to hand mine over and she said she would be by to take them (no problem); however, she was just right behind me asking the other table if they needed anything and then she picked up our plates. I felt as if she was doing this on purpose (some servers just have an attitude and are not "people persons" as they say). Other than that, I would definitely return!

    This evening, we had a late dinner at the Cottonwood Kitchen. We started our meal with a plate of…read morecorn chips with pico de gallo, guacamole and salsa. Then, we had a chocolate tort with ice cream and a slice of peach cheesecake for dessert. Everything was fresh and delicious. Service was outstanding. Ambiance was typical of a casino eating establishment.

    Best veggie burger I've ever had! They make it in-house and it is perfectly meaty and shroom-y and…read moredelicious! I'm not sure if they make their buns in house but they are also incredible! My boyfriend got the smoke burger with bacon and green chilis and he loved it! I do eat meat as well so I had a bite of his and the burger was well seasoned and cooked to perfection. Fries were great too. Nothing but great things to say!! I had a mojito to drink and it was so refreshing! The bartender told me he grows the mint in the back garden. Great service too!! Sorry we didn't take photos!

    The service was great, but that's about where the good ends with this visit. I had been here before…read moreand remember not carrying much for it but decided to give it another try. I asked for the burger to be cooked medium, and it was more like medium well or more done. The bun was a disaster, falling apart and sliding all over the place. One of the onions on it was inedible. The green chili suffered from a typical New Mexico problem (either hot with no flavor or flavor with no heat); this one was quite hot with no flavor. I don't know why, but my expectations were pretty high, but this burger was pretty bad. Oh yes, another point on the positive side, I got a house salad instead of french fries, and the salad was fantastic. Had some sesame seeds and cranberries in it that made it really delicious. I won't be back though. They simply must do better.

    Made reservation for early Friday lunch to avoid potential wait during peak tourist season in Santa…read moreFe. Glad we did because the restaurant filled up quite a bit by the time we left. Started off with barbacoa croquettes and pablano fries to share. Both came out piping hot and tasty. Impressive cocktail list with lots of tequila, beer and wine options. We had the mango en Fuego (strong with habañero) and tepache (pineapple beer from Nayarit, Mexico), both went well with dishes ordered. For main course we tried the Chile en Nogada, flautas, pork belly tacos, tempura fish tacos. All we're quite good especially the Chile Nogada and pork belly tacos. Tempura fish tacos were tasty but the batter was a bit too much for small pieces of fish. Portions are quite large so we didn't have room to try the dessert menu. They do have happy hour on week days for those looking to have bit size sampling.

    Spectacular for brunch We've eaten at Escondido multiple…read moretimes, it has always been outstanding. Today, 6 of us ate brunch, which was equally impressive. The menu is a bit different for Brunch, and I highly recommend many of the times we tried. I had the Chilaquiles with mole; this may be the best version of Chilaquiles I've ever had. I really love the mole chef makes here; the tortilla chips are homemade, which makes a huge difference in the dish. One in our party raved over the Breakfast Vegetarian Mole Enchiladas and the Eggs Benny. My wife had the Tempura Fish Tacos, which I tried and agree were outstanding. Great service too. We arrived on a Saturday when they open, 11 AM, and by the time we left, around 12:30, the place was packed. Go early and make reservations for Brunch (Saturday and Sunday only, 11 am-3pm).
