    The owner's husband didn't know that the dish he made (the Heart Attack) was actually a dish made…read morefamous in Springfield, IL. Texas Toast with a burger patty, grilled onions, fries, cheese and (here is where it changes) a choice of white gravy, brown gravy, Red Sauce or Green Sauce. Also known as Horseshoes! I chose the red sauce and it was delicious. Perfectly medium Rare. My only complaint was the onions. When I hear "grilled onions" I think soft and caramelized. The onions I recieved didn't even seem to touch the pan. But it was still a delicious dish. The waitress was great! Wonderful sense of humor. Did everything she could to make us feel comfortable and happy. Well done! The diner was just that...a typical Route 66 Roadside Diner ... but elevated. I would definitely go again to try their breakfast and/or dinner. I would recommend this diner to anyone!

    Since my dog was waiting in the air-conditioned Jeep, I decided on SideKix on 66 for a takeout…read moredinner. This little diner in Tucumcari, NM has extensive menus for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The service was very friendly and hospitable... encouraging me to take a seat while I waited back on August 2, 2026. It was one of the waitress's birthday which made me super happy but simultaneously sad because it was also my youngest daughter's birthday - she was in Cali at the time visiting her dad before school started. I DIGRESS... There was a variety of seating arrangements. The chairs had really cool upholstery beckoning to the 50s era in the area. One dish in particular caught my eyes: Southwest chicken fried steak ($19.49). I had it with green sauce. I almost chose Christmas style - red and green sauce. The green beans and mashed potatoes with cream gravy were just fine. So was the roll. The steak was mostly tender, savory, and hearty. I was able to take the sauce and breading off to share with my canine. They also sold souvenirs. They still seem to be recovering from a fire from the previous year especially with their prices - a bit high in my opinion. I'm a fan nonetheless. RATING BREAKDOWN Food: 4 | Service: 5 | Ambiance: 4 | Price: 3

    Every time I visit Tucumcari, I eat at Dells, which is very good. But this time I'm trying…read moresomething different. I decided to try La Cita. I'm glad I did! I visited on a Monday evening, around 5pm. That's usually the time us old folks eat. I had no issue getting a table. Promptly seated, I ordered a beer and my dinner. The menu is a good mix, something for everyone. I ordered the Chili Rellenos. Of course I ordered that. Hey, when in Rome..... My meal was served quick and hot. Waiting a minute to cool was definitely in the cards. No problem, I had my beer, salsa and chips to occupy me while the steam settled. After a bit, I dug in. First fork was the rice. Oh, was that rice ever good! The only problem was that there wasn't enough. I suggest that you order a side of that glorious grain. Fantastic! The refried beans, well, were ok, but just ok. The Hatch greenies, as you'd expect, were outstanding and very flavorful. I ordered them Christmas style, with green and red sauce. Both of those condiments were tasty, but of the two, the green sauce stood out. Boy did it ever. I'll be dreaming of that sauce later tonight. Hopefully my girlfriend doesn't pop into the picture.....OR, maybe she should! LoL, now that would be a dream! Don't worry about parking, as there is more than ample. You can park in the front, the back, either side, and if you're driving a big rig, pulling a trailer, or driving a tank, they've got you covered. Across the street is special parking for those vehicles. More parking outside than tables inside. Pay La Cita a visit for a romantic dinner, or as I did, by yourself....my dream trend may have helped with that. Hey, I may be old, but certainly not dead! Quick Tip: I parked in the back, and when leaving, I took the dirt alley. It was a fun adventure. I'd suggest that you do it during daylight hours though. You never know who you'll run into, or for that matter, over! Let's hope it isn't Skinny Pete or Badger.

    For a small town this place is a vibe! Fresh food and friendly service. Always a treat when in…read moretown.
