    The breakfast food was great, you can tell everything is homemade. Hotel staff are accommodating and kind. Ambiance is different, still cute! Now let me tell you... there was quite the bit of paranormal activity but don't be alarmed still a fun place to stay!

    Brunswick Bar and Owner

    A wonderful stay and dinner in the Old West style. A routine overnight stop on my way home. And a beautifully carved Brunswick Bar.

    One star Only because the Restaurant is closed due to they cannot find employees to hire to work at restaurant and salon. This has been an awesome place to eat and hangout while staying at the ELKLUND Hotel. yourwhen passing through again I hope they can reopen the kitchen and salon.

    They are only open on Thurs, Fri and Sat evening. It is in an old hotel. It used to be a great place to eat dinner. Not sure now

    Charming hotel. Nice old wood bar downstairs. Clean rooms. A great place to stay in Clayton, New Mexico.

    Really good ambience, service, and food. Highly recommended. Pork chop with raspberry roasted chipotle sauce the best.

    Fun decor, especially outside…read more Kinda slow with the food, we were the second couple in at 11am, it was 30 minutes ish before we got our food. The place started filling up at about 1115 am. Chicken fried steak and fries - perfect portion for me, I'm 61, tender, for once I didn't have to spit out a single piece of chicken fried steak! I guess home cooking is worth a little wait . Green beans had bacon, onion, and were good as well, fries good too. Sunshine Burger and fries - fries were good, there was meat in the hamburger! Good flavor/portion, needed a little more avocado though. Relax, eat here!

    Went in and we were seated quickly, but the food took over and hour and a half to come out. The…read moreserver was strange to say the least. She was talking to her co worker, and having a great time. We called her over and asked if we could get at least the salads we ordered and her response was that rhetorical kitchen was backed up. She could've easily helped them to make the salads. After an hour we ask if there was an update on our food. Her response was she didn't know but she needed to go to the bathroom. What?!?!? Nonetheless we got our food. While the burgers were okay the chicken fried steak was not that. It looked like a patty with slimy breading. The whole experience was awful. It's the only place in the area so I think people eat there as a last resort. It's a nice place but lacks everything.

    Sierra Grande is the perfect definition of a hole in the wall. From the outside it's modest and…read morehumble -- part restaurant, part gas station, part gift shop -- but inside it's pure soul food. You can literally fuel up your stomach, your tank, and grab a little gift for the road. The menu has a bit of everything: burgers, burritos, enchiladas, carne asada, even breakfast. True to New Mexico style, almost everything can be smothered in red or green chile (and you absolutely should not skip it). Hands down, one of the best green chiles I've ever had in my life was here. I came in for a quick bite while passing through, hoping for a smothered burger (sadly they weren't making one that morning), but I went with Dino's Breakfast instead -- bacon and extra green chile on top. Total flavor bomb. Soul-pleasing doesn't even begin to describe it. When I walked in, the place was quiet. By the time I left, it was filling up with guests, and it's easy to see why. Sierra Grande is not to be underestimated, and it's now officially on my "must visit" list every time I come through.
