Loved the old west ambience of the place.

I'm sure that I reviewed this place at least once before. Maybe it was under a different name. I do…read moreknow that I didn't leave a three star review. I do't even know how many times I've stopped and eaten here while passing through Dalhart. I do know this... we are RVers and live over 350 miles away but we almost always spend the night in Dalhart because of the XIT grill. In visiting with the server tonight, who was 5 stars, he mentioned that the restaurant was under new ownership or management. I had asked about the bread that they used to serve - and is one of my reasons for stopping - and he said that management had decided to go with bread "buns"it's a roll. It's okay, but not special like the loaves used to be. That change brings one star and might be enough to discourage me from choosing Dalhart as our "layover" point. I had the cowboy sirloin. It had good flavor and was cooked perfectly, but it was as tough and chewy as a leather boot. These items can be fixed. The margins might not be be as high ot the price might need to go up. Your choice, but you just dropped below a great little BBQ spot - and this meal was not worthy of spending the night for and especially not planning a night in Dalhart. That means the place we stay loses, where we buy fuel loses. Where we normally have breakfast loses. Here's an error in many businesses. They gorget to consider fixed costs when trying to raise margins. I know overall margins are small, but margins on food are usually 69% plus. Think about your customer count and see if the changes you've implemented are a feel good improvement or an actual overall improvement. As you do your calculations, include what it costs to retain business because lower quality doesn't really pay off unless you're running a fast food restaurant.

Chelsea did an exceptional job of taking care of us, she was attentive and friendly, which made our time there even more enjoyable. I personally enjoyed hearing laughter coming from the kitchen area, the staff seemed to genuinely enjoy being together and at work.... it was odd to see a child brought in through the drive of window, he spent a few minutes saying hi to everyone and then back through the drive up window to be driven away.

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!

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.

We had "Philly" cheese steak.(New Mexico version) with great potato salad. Ice cream was excellent too. Going to put it on our, "must stop" places on our biannual trips from Oklahoma to.Colorado.

After a day of driving, I asked the front desk worker at my hotel (see my review of the hotel on my…read moreprofile) for places to eat. The man told me about a place about a block away called Wild Horse, before running into the restroom. I can only assume the reason he went to the restroom was because he consumed Wild Horse more than one time. I walk in and am at first optimistic, as the place seems pretty clean. After sitting down, I settle on a brisket (since this place is technically a steakhouse), mashed potatoes, and green beans. The server, however, was pretty rude when she gave me my menu and took my order. The food was absolutely terrible. The mashed potatoes were watery and tasted like actual crap in the form of a watery substance. The green beans were terrible, too, being soggy and, overall, tasting terrible. And don't even get me started on the brisket, which was undercooked, bland, and barely edible. To be fair, locals seem to like this place, and there aren't too many places to eat in Clayton, but you mean to tell me that this is the best place Clayton has to offer? I know that Clayton's a rural area, so I shouldn't expect anything fancy, but I really just wanted a meal that I wouldn't get food poisoning from. Considering that there aren't too many places to eat, and I still had barely eaten anything, I went to the gas station that was just across the street and got a much better meal. After reading through the other reviews on Wild Horse, I would understand if my meal was just a fluke. Next time, though, I'll just keep driving. It's not a risk I'm even remotely willing to take.

No recommendation. Locals seem to enjoy this restaurant…read more I don't want to come across overly critical, so simply put it's a middle of the road maw-and-paw shop restaurant in a tiny town where competition isn't driving the restaurant to the next level. So, they serve basic southern comfort fare and steaks, with acceptable flavor and quality. I ordered the chicken fried steak with mashed potatoes and green beans. The beans were from a can. The white gravy was runny, like they were trying to stretch it out to last the evening. Nothing was bad, but nothing was great either. So, overall, my "no recommendation" isn't an indictment, it's simply that I'm left with no opinion. I probably won't return to this restaurant.

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.

The portions are big enough to fill but not so much that it causes a tummy ache. They even have a baked dessert and 2 flavors of ice cream. Overall I would probably stop again if I was passing though. Reasons for 4 stars: they do not have a bathroom, you have to go to the gas station a few blocks away. The other is there is no kind of pandemic precautions in place. Maybe this town hasn't been hit but with a major route running through town, hopefully they won't be affected at all.
