Absolutely overpriced and overrated. I ordered their version of Casio e Pepe. It had died pork, perhaps Guanciale. It tasted rancid and the pasta was exceptionally dry. I sent it back My wife ordered the Filet Oscar. The brown gravy was reminiscent of lunch in middle school where Salisbury steak with brown gravy was served. The service was terrific and the manager came over to see if there was anything else on the menu I'd like. Seriously overpriced for the quality. I'd strongly recommend trying somewhere else. The trains rolling by was a highlight of my dinner. read more

We went in for dinner. The place is really cool on the inside unfortunately we were seated outside. Flies and mosquitos were ever present. Our waitress didn't seem to care about waiting on us. She only came by a few times to check on us. The food was sub par. The prices were outrageous. A bowl of fettuccine Alfredo with a touch of red sauce and some hard as a rock rib eye meatballs was $59. The wife tried to eat the meatball but it was too hard to cut. I had the fettuccine Alfredo and honestly Olive Garden's was better than this. It arrived lukewarm with very little sauce. No salad only some bread and butter. We had 4 adults and 3 children and were charged the large party gratuity of 20%. They had a guy playing guitar. He was good but a little loud. Will we go back? No way!! read more

The food was excellent! The service was amazing. We will be coming back. My sister is from Phoenix and she said this was the best restaurant she had ever eaten that.! read more

We started our meal with bread and butter. We had calamari for an appetizer with a glass Prosecco and a New Mexico Sunrise. Then, we moved on to our entrees, red snapper with grilled prawns and the Spicy Pork Vindaloo served with butter mash and rice. It all tasted awesome!!! The service was fast and everyone was attentive. Our server was pleasant and polite. The ambiance is a cool vibe! You can eat and enjoy the trains going by at the same time. The building was kept authentic and rustic. Highly recommended!!! read more

Nicest dining in Clovis. Upscale and unique with a small but well rounded menus and the coolest dining space in Clovis! Set inside the historic railway station there are displays throughout the restaurant of historic and model railway items and a friendly wax conductor who welcomes you as you walk up. The food is delicious although expect to pay for the experience $$$$. Most attentive wait staff I've seen in Clovis and very professional service. Used dishes weren't on the table for more than 5 minutes if that. Great place to celebrate a special occasion! read more

Really good food in Clovis, NM. The ambiance and service were good. I got the risotto as an appetizer and it was great- really unique as it is in a fried panko ball. I got the butter chicken curry and it was delicious! Some of the best I've had. For dessert, I got the creme brûlée and it was amazing. I would highly recommend coming here if you are in the area. read more

The Rails - Butter Chicken Curry - Steakhouses Near Me - Clovis, New Mexico

Two stars are for the apps and drinks! Those were ok. 48$ filet was more like 6oz and over cooked asked for mid rare. Ordered a pasta dish for 19 plus xtra for chicken totally dry like a well diggers a$$. Waste of 190$ bucks for a wanna be bougie restaurant in good ol dirty Curry. Never again. read more

Overated pretty upscale with low expectations for pleasing customers. I don't know maybe I'm the wrong type of customer. Feels like a social gathering for those who don't like regular working people. read more

When you get dessert. Definitely go for the Chocolate Mousse, it's the best. Servers are really nice and always fun to watch the trains go by! read more

Fantastic restaurant with wide variety of choices. The beef cheeks and venison were amazing! Ceaser salad fresh and flavorful. Great service, eclectic location. Highly recommended! read more

Walked in without a reservation and was immediately seated, about 80% full, plenty of servers. Food was awesome and cooked and served with perfection. read more

I wish I could give them extra stars. What a fabulous hidden gem in Clovis, NM. This place is completely unexpected. It's a beautiful historic building right on the railroad tracks, with a lovely covered patio. The wine list is the equivalent of what you would find in any hip restaurant in California. The dishes are tasty, especially the chile seared beef tenderloin. I've been told to try the brunch and curry dishes, but haven't had a chance quite yet. The service is fantastic, everyone is so friendly and attentive. I travel for work A LOT, and I wish every town I visited had The Rails. If you are looking for a foodie experience in Clovis, this is your place. A+++. read more

My family and I traveled from CA to NM for my graduation and I am so happy I found The Rails for our dinner. We were welcomed by many members making sure we've been helped. Service was exceptional. Food and drinks were divine! I ordered the filet mignon with butter mash paired with a glass of Freakshow Cabernet Sauvignon. For dessert, the chocolate mousse and the ginger snap cheesecake (not pictured) were delicious! Overall, The Rails made our trip that more delightful! read more

The Rails is definitely the nicest restaurant in the Clovis area. The cocktails were good. The entrees were the best you'll find within 100 miles. Highly recommended if you are looking for a good steak dinner. The green chili burger was ok and the side salad was basic. The flatbread appetizer was also ok. I would recommend the risotto balls for an appetizer instead. We split two dessert between our group because they all sounds so delicious. They did not disappoint. The desserts are really good and the highly of the meal- don't skip! read more

Amazing service, delicious food, and friendly staff. I would definitely come back here again. I recommend this place.

Traveling through. The bar is small and the bartender Austin is the best! Try the Old Fashioned. Austin makes a great one! Not the typical eating establishment for Clovis. Very nice place and a great menu. read more

The Rails - Loved it! - Steakhouses Near Me - Clovis, New Mexico

Had dinner there a couple of nights ago. The food was excellent, but had a little glitch in the meal--the entrees came out while we were eating the salads. I mentioned it to the server and she shrugged it off. "The kitchen is busy." A manager-type came by later and asked how the meal was. I told him we were still working on the salads when the steaks came out. No real apology, just a sort of "these things happen" and a shoulder shrug. I was expecting something a little more....sincere...plus often with something like that they'd offer a free drink or a dessert or something. They're new, but could learn a few things about the service aspect. The steaks, sides and salads were great though---so no complaints there. read more

I've been whining all day because I didn't think there was anywhere nice/ fancy to go for dinner for my anniversary tonight- I finally got on yelp to browse our options and found The Rails!! They just opened a month ago and it was the perrrrrrfect date night spot!! It can be fancier/pricier if you're looking for that, but they had plenty of less expensive items as well!! It's the cutest place, great service, and the food and drinks were delicious!!! The bar and indoor eating was so cute! Steaks were great and so were the risotto balls and sides. We'll be back for sure! read more

Stopped here on my way through town and it was definitely 5+ stars! I will drive the 2 hours from my home just to eat here at least twice a month.

The Rails was amazing. Easily the best dining choice in Clovis. We went for a date night and had the risotto balls (must get), superchief yardbird, and my wife got the blackened salmon. She said it was the best salmon she's ever had. Perfectly seasoned, flaky, and moist. Which is a lot for her to say considering we're in Clovis. Decent bar selection. Great environment. Staff was great. We are outdoors and they had these little fly swatter fans at the tables that repel all the crazy Clovis mosquitos. What a feat. We're sad we're moving because we would have been frequent visitors. read more

Wrong place to eat, the kitchen closets a hour before the time, makes no sense, just go somewhere else and they rude asf about it. They should change their hours wish I could give 0 stars read more

The food was right on the mark. It fit with the location and style they were going for. I'll definitely be stopping in next time I am in town. read more

Great food, service and staff is very friendly and go out of the way to make the experience wonderful!!!

Wow Tate is a one of kind dude. He was very nervous serving us at first but once he got out of his shell he was firing off the jokes! The man clearly has 4 kids so he's quite a stress ball but he really tapped in after seeing how much we were drinking. We snubbed him with our tip but beggars can't be choosers! Loved the steak! read more

the food is generally good, but expensive. Eggs Benedict with pot roast was not good - the flavors did not go well together. The risotto balls are way overpriced for what they are. Desserts were small and expensive. The staff are generally friendly and informative. read more

Stopped here because we love old architecture. The food was excellent and the staff were great. Highly recommend.

LOVE The Rails!!! The food is excellent; we were traveling through Clovis, staying over one night. Read some restaurant reviews on Yelp and thought the Rails looked like a good option. WOW! What an unexpected treat! My husband is a huge fan of trains. We loved finding ourselves in the original Clovis train station from the early 1900's. Right next door to an original Harvey House (really hoping someone invests in fixing THAT up!). Trains were right outside the back of the restaurant. It was very cool. Our waiter, Alex was happy with our train enthusiasm and gave us a lot of cool information about the place and encouraged us to go out the back door to look at the trains. He later introduced us to one of the managers, MaryBeth. We love her!!! Had so much to talk about... we ended up going back the next morning for brunch before heading out of town. It is pricey but if it's within your budget I absolutely recommend this place. read more

A comfortable environment that is so different than others here in this area. They put a spin on the shrimp and grits with green chili which I found to be flavorful and scrumptious. Next time we'll go from one of the steak options read more

New establishment opened a few days ago (per waitress) Thought we would stop in for dinner and see what they had. Atmosphere was nice. We sat outside and enjoyed the nice cool breeze as we listened to the trains roar by behind the building. I got the 12oz. Ribeye medium with a side of Asparagus and the Truffle Mushroom Sauce with a Spicy Margarita. My hubby got the Bacon Burger with a side Salad and a 12oz beer to wash it down with. Drinks took awhile to be brought to us and my margarita was extremely spicy. I could have sworn my ears were shooting out smoke. (A lot of Green-chili liquor) After a bit of a wait on the food the hubby finds that the burger had almost a head of lettuce in it so it's like he got 2 salads for the price of one. He said the patty was good but very tough however his patty was nowhere near as tough as my steak. (Thankful I didn't lose any teeth trying to eat it). The flavor was great and so was the mushroom truffles. Asparagus was also a bit overcooked but again had a good flavor. (Think we had meat from an old cow) Lol Needless to say my jaw now hurts due to all that chewing but we were not done yet...we decided to have some dessert. I had the key lime cream cheese pie and he ordered the espresso crème brûlée. The pie was plain...no cream on top but still good (when you get past the refrigerator taste). The espresso crème brûlée was very delicious but no espresso taste just a delicious plain crème brûlée. All in all...we tried it but will not go back. Overpriced for the quality of food served. Good luck with your business and I wish you all well!! read more

You should really update your times on Google maps. If your not a regular and visiting this small town you wouldn't know that this places kitchen closes at 9. Therefore this establishment needs to recognize that and change it so people like myself don't waste the time or energy to go there. Then the person handling phone calls is very unprofessional and doesn't know how to handle situations, so they hang up on you politely! I personally wouldn't recommend this restaurant and I have never ate there. Guess that's what I get for stopping in Clovis NM. read more

Great place consistent food and service. One of our favorites when we are visiting our son!

Nice ambiance, especially for Clovis. My husband liked his steak. The kid's chicken Alfredo had no flavor. My salad was just ok.

The spicy margarita was fantastic, just the right amount of spice. The food was also great, had the risotto balls which were my favorite. Next I want to try to the shrimp and grits! read more

We had dinner with a group at The Rails Saturday night. Our table was set up and waiting when we arrived. We were seated promptly and our server arrived promptly to take drink orders. The patio atmosphere was great. Our server was great, attentive considering she had multiple large groups. Our Margaritas were very good. The food was good, but in our opinion not as good as it should be for the price. The filet was not the grade it should be for premium prices. It was a very fun evening, the only real disappointment was our steak. read more

Very expensive, but it is worth the expense to experience the atmosphere, top notch service and gourmet menu in Clovis. This is a little gem of a restaurant. We have been twice since they opened and both times the food was prepared just right. The green chili shrimp and grits were a delicious twist on the traditional dish and the bone in ribeye was maybe the best my wife has ever experienced. The sides were prepared well and were delicious but could have been bigger portions. Also please add a baked potato to your menu. Finally the dessert menu is pretty small. We had the ice cream and it was good and the crème brûlée was not even warm but tasted like normal. All in all this is a top notch restaurant here in Clovis. I hope they will only get better with time and we are blessed to have them as part of our dining community. read more
