Called inquiring about reservations, told it's first come first serve and I should expect about a 15-20 min wait. Showed up, 3 adults w/ 3 kids at 5:30. Was told I was the 2nd name behind an 11 top, and should be able to be seated in 5 min due to a few tables just waiting to be cleared upstairs. 20 mins later I watched them clear a 6 top at the front door downstairs, then split it so they could seat two tables of 4 who had shown up after my family. After waiting another 10 min I asked about how long we were looking at, the woman at the door told me she would go upstairs and check on the table, she returned to inform me that I was now looking at probably 20 min before we could be seated. We left... I don't know if the elderly woman working as a hostess at the door is an owner, a wife, family friend, or simply a pity hire due to her old age, but she has no business working customer service at a restaurant. She lied to me and several other groups about wait times, and seating availability only to double down several times about how soon we will be seated. She obviously has zero idea about how food service works, customer service relations, or kitchen service/food service times. Side note: an obviously drunk group of six made their way in during my wait, the bartender had no issue serving them, fingers crossed they weren't driving home, but I doubt anyone is that lucky.

They definitely were not skimpy on the add ons. Lettuce, tomatoes, pickles and very generous with the green chiles. The fries were also very tasty and there were quite a bit. Next time I'll order just one patty. This is a food truck with outdoor seating. The people there were super friendly. We will return.

There is also a drink menu which I suggest you try. The staff is young, this brewery may be the next incarnation of breweries, replacing the big bearded lumberjack dudes with young girls from some summer camp. A lot of high pitched voices and running around, but everything was OK. It was a nice experience nonetheless.

Pizza is very thin, so I wouldn't say it will hold you down, but it was pretty good. The dip we had was good and everything was fresh. You order at the front, get a buzzer and go back to the counter to get your food, so it comes out pretty fresh and quick. We came here after a day of driving around Ruidoso so we can unwind with some drinks, which were well made. Everything was spot on, recommend if you're looking for a chill spot with good food and drinks. As always, straight from the plate.

I was seriously impressed (see picture) it was crunchy but not greasy, the eggs fluffy and buttery and the potatoes perfectly well done!

The standout side dish for me was the sauteed mushrooms, with plenty of minced garlic in a white wine sauce. Many of the staff were young and recently trained, but all were working hard. In a town like Ruidoso, labor is very tight, costs are high, and the customers often come in large, hard-to-handle parties, all packed into high-season rush hour. So five stars in Ruidoso doesn't mean "perfect", it means "as good as possible, given the constraints they have to work with". Folks are all doing their best, so I try to do my part by planning ahead, making reservations, and bringing my best self.
