John RippelApril 4, 2014A Santa Fe institution. The breakfast burrito can fill you up for breakfast and lunch - great red, green or christmas. The turkey burger is moist and well seasoned. Bowl of green for cold days.
EddieAugust 23, 2016One of the few places open and serving late Monday night. Our waiter was very attentive, the service good. My turkey burger was enjoyable. Thankful that we found a place to eat!

William CapodannoJuly 10, 2015Came here for dessert and got the coconut cream pie, banana cream pie and chocolate cake. The first two were yummy, the last dry and not that good.
Maximum BurgerFebruary 23, 2024Impeccably clean, dressed and mannered, generous breakfast portions. Mid priced. Excellent central location in the plaza. Everything was great

ᴡ KyawFebruary 8, 2015Can't go wrong with burgers. New Mexican food there is pretty decent even though the serving is a little small, IMO. The sopaipilla ice-cream dessert is great.
naveenSeptember 25, 2019great easy, fast diner breakfast (burrito) - especially early mornings when nothing else seems to be open (or seems to have a huge line)- Michael AndersonJanuary 16, 2017The stuffed sopaipilla was spicy & delicious Christmas style (red & green chile sauce) with carnitas
Defne ColasanNovember 26, 2014Comfortable place with the kids, both american and new mexican kitchen. Cashew chicken bowl was very delicious and warming for a cold winter day.
Raphael LangenscheidtMay 29, 2017Breakfast Burrito is the way to go, and don't forget to order it "Christmas" - with green and red salsa. Great lemonade.
- Brandon RobinsonMay 3, 2014VERY diverse menu of foods but overpriced. It has a diner feel but the price of the food is not like a diner. I ordered the Green Chili Meatloaf which was very good, but one slice and NOT for $15.
Ben RAugust 7, 2014It's touristy. It's overpriced. But it's still a great choice on the Plaza. Christmas style all the way.
Heather McDowellFebruary 18, 2013Can I get a basket of sopapillas to go? Oh yea...the enchiladas are good too!
