    Don't visit when it's busy. The servers are angry. The bartender is slammed. The food quality…read moredeclines. And worst of all, coping methods are reduced to 3 drinks maximum. That guarantees a short stay here. So be sure to get some spirits across the street at Shop and Save before you start your night. I had to send my burger back and the server didn't want to accommodate. She blamed me as a customer for not ordering what she thought I would like. Val was our server and usually bartends. Unless she's in a good mood, you might move to another table. Good luck all.

    The service was friendly, but the food was unfortunately mediocre…read more We visited for a late dinner last night and were seated immediately. I ordered the Leading Lady salad without cheese, and my friend ordered the Mac and Cheese. About 20-30 minutes after we placed the order, our waiter informed us that they were out of the Mac and Cheese. It's fine if you're out of a menu item, but letting us know after we had already been waiting for that long seemed inappropriate. Eventually, my salad came out covered with cheese, even though I asked for no cheese. The chicken that came with it was also very dry. My friend opted for the BBQ brisket sliders in lieu of the Mac and Cheese, and he noted that the meat was dry and that there wasn't enough BBQ sauce. The fries were decent, though. Overall, not worth the visit, unfortunately.

    NOISY, at least where I was put. Right by the kitchen. I could have asked to be moved, but I was…read moreenjoying the Mexican music blaring where the cooks were. I figured if they're happy back there then I shouldn't worry about what comes out. I wasn't greeted with chips and salsa which was a surprise, seeing how it's a staple at every Mexican restaurant I've ever been to. So that was a bummer. You would think that nice salty chips and spicy salsa would pair well with a cold beer. It would make you thirsty for another thus adding to their bottom line. It's probably for the best after that salty mess last night at the Garage restaurant in Oklahoma. I still feel like Lot's wife after she looked back at Sodom and Gomorrah. My bubbly server took my order of a beer and a Mexicali hamburger steak (closest thing to meatloaf that I could get). It came to my table piping hot. My steak was covered in chopped green chilis, and was extremely delicious. The beans and rice were standard, so no woop there. Panz Alegra was pretty busy on this Saturday night. You can sit in the bar area, or the regular restaurant. The bar was a hoppin', while where I was seated was pretty tame. Unless you consider the exuberant busboy dancing his way to tables entertaining. He made me a bit nervous. The guy was one misstep away from adding more dishes to my table than I was comfortable with. Ricky Martin he was not. You can't go wrong with Panz. You can get better, but who wants to drive all the way to Las Cruces. Quick Tip: This place boasts American-Mexican-Italian food on its menu. Interesting. I never would have thought that American food would find its way on the menu. Oh, from the outside, the restaurant looks abandoned. One of many relics you can find along Route 66. But don't be deterred. There's people inside, dancing and otherwise.

    Panz Alegra was a fun experience. I didnt know what to expect going in, they apparently have a bar…read moreand a restaurant area. I was in the restaurant side. The service was ok, good in terms of attentiveness, they were swamped and there was a wait to get in anways. Food came out pretty slow but then I am not sure if they are usually completely full. The Chile Releno was reallly good and had a lot of flavor to it. The tacos were pretty basic and the rice was good. My meal came with a large folded flour tortilla with a butter pad that confused me. The menu was expansive and some of the burgers that passed by me looked really good. They touted a sign that said an best authentic mexican food award, but really its tex-mex. Ill go again for sure try more and update.
