A 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.

Eddie

One 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 Capodanno

Came 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 Burger

Impeccably clean , dressed and mannered, generous breakfast portions. Mid priced. Excellent central location in the plaza . Everything was great

Can'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.

great easy, fast diner breakfast (burrito ) - especially early mornings when nothing else seems to be open (or seems to have a huge line )

Michael Anderson

The stuffed sopaipilla was spicy & delicious Christmas style (red & green chile sauce ) with carnitas

Defne Colasan

Comfortable place with the kids, both american and new mexican kitchen. Cashew chicken bowl was very delicious and warming for a cold winter day.

Breakfast Burrito is the way to go, and don't forget to order it "Christmas " - with green and red salsa . Great lemonade .

Susan Gates

Fast, courteous service . Great food whether it is breakfast or lunch .

Brandon Robinson

VERY 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.

Mario Lacayo

Tried the Frito Pie , it was OK, delicious coconut cream pie .

Ben R

It's touristy . It's overpriced. But it's still a great choice on the Plaza . Christmas style all the way.

Heather McDowell

Can I get a basket of sopapillas to go? Oh yea...the enchiladas are good too!

Alan Liu

Fish sandwich is big and very spicy

Heads up: the (cold) chips and salsa is $6.50 - not a complimentary starter.
