I had a very filling chili relleno bean burrito with green and red sauce. Both meals were excellent. They also provided chips and home made salsa which was good. We will definitely eat here again next time we are in town.

The fries were good but the meat on the sandwich was overcooked and super chewy but dry. My sidekick had the fish and fries and some kind of soup. The fish pieces were a generous portion with light breading. It was a quick stop and the staff was friendly so that was a bright spot. The decor had that fun old school diner/cafe vibe one would expect out on The Mother Road.

I always get the stuffed sopapilla or green chili nachos. It's great choices! The sopapilla is…read morefilled with ground beef, beans, lettuce, tomatoes, and avocado wrapped in a nice cripsy sopapilla. Note the avocado doesn't taste like it's fresh but still pairs with the meal. I recommend the chili on the side otherwise your sopapilla will get soggy and soft. The nachos are also great! Chili cheese fries are pretty good as well. If I can't get Jerry's Cafe, I go here.

These ladies do not mess around. We came in for a quick lunch and really enjoyed it. We ordered…read morethe Navajo taco and the chicken enchiladas and both were pretty decent.

The kids settled on chicken tenders, the wife on Frito Pie, Mother In Law had a chicken burrito, and I had the LOTA burger with chili fries. This place did not disappoint!!! Free drink refills. We fed the entire family for $43. The bathrooms were super clean. Michael at the counter was helpful in getting our drinks filled and suggestions on the menu. I will be stopping back when I roll thru again!

Growing up Blake's was the absolute best, many memories tied to getting a lotacombo. When I worked here there was such high standards with everything and quality checks were abundant. I loved to eat here when I worked here. I've since moved to Tennessee and Blake's is always my first stop. Breakfast burritos are top notch and unmatched by literally anyone. Came here for lunch today and I think since they have gone to breakfast all day the crew is just confused and lost 24/7. Or just underpaid, I know as a manager here in 2010 I was only making 8 bucks so I can just imagine what's happening now. Took 25 mins for our one Lotaburger and chicken tender boat to come out. And our Lotaburger was made wrong (missing cheese and the diced jalapeños we asked and paid for(. Will I return? Yes, because those breakfast burritos are top notch and I'll have dreams about them until I return to Gallup again. But do better Blake's, I believe in you and NM doesn't have much else to be proud of!

We left Rosewell, NM and stopped in Gallup, NM for the night on our way to Sedona, AZ…read more We had dinner at 305 Fire Pizza, a popular wood-fired pizzeria known for its authentic, artisan pizzas with a charred, chewy crust made from heritage grain flour and cooked in an 850-degree oak-fired oven. The restaurant opened its doors in December of 2024. We really enjoyed the following pizzas and recommend trying: *Hot Honey Pizza with plum tomatoes, pepperoni, Kalamata olives and their sweet and spicy 305 hot honey glaze. *Pepperoni cheese pizza (be sure to drizzle their 305 hot honey glaze). We had excellent customer service by our waitress Naomi. Jenny the owner, came over to check on our table and was very friendly and welcoming. The restaurant is only open on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. There's indoor and outdoor seating. We really enjoyed sitting outside next to their fish pond and listening to the live music. Check it out when in the area! Happy Yelping :)

I was looking for a little spice but didn't get it with this pizza. Perhaps, the green chilis weren't mad today. My mom got the sweet corn pizza with the chipotle sauce on the side. Delicious choice if you're looking for cheesy and spicy. Downside, I noticed I was charged extra for the green chilis on my pizza when it was already on the menu description. The pizza restaurant is located on a one way street so additional parking may be needed if streets are full. Over all great pizza and worth checking out.
