Wouldn't be a visit to New Mexico if we didn't stop at Blake's. Reminiscent of a 1930s hamburger stand, Blake's still puts out some good meals! We stopped for breakfast and ordered a breakfast sandwich with bacon, egg, and of course green chili! There is no drive thru window, so you just go in. They do have order head if want to call your order in to expedite the process. They are pretty speedy though. Clean kitchen, nice staff, and very clean dining area. Make sure to try Blake's-especially in Las Cruces! read more

The customer service is great. Courteous, prompt and professional. The floors were being mopped, and tended to. Although the burger fell apart because the top bun got soggy; the taste was still good. Problem is: after going to use the restroom, I had to wonder how sanitary the cooking conditions might be. The restroom should be as clean as the kitchen. read more

Blake's Lotaburger - The men's restroom sink was dirty. This type of dirty is done over time - not by a couple of uses. - Burgers Near Me - Las Cruces, New Mexico

Stopped in early to grab breakfast before heading on the road back home. Decided to try the LOTA breakfast sandwich which was filling and tasty. Fresh and made-to-order, two eggs were cooked perfectly with melted cheese, bacon, and spicy roasted Hatch green chile. I will stop in again for breakfast the next time I am in town. read more

The burgers have gotten a lot better but they skimp on the green Chile. I order a side of green Chile and that works but they forgot the extra green Chile this time. DO NOT get a burrito from Blake's. The burritos are a joke. The carne adovada burrito was tiny and the meat was dry. I'll go back for a burger but make they put my extra green Chile in the bag. read more

Blake's Lotaburger - Tiny with dry meat. TERRIBLE burrito. - Burgers Near Me - Las Cruces, New Mexico

I haven't been to a Blake's in nearly a decade and I thought I'd give the franchise another try. That was a mistake. The entire restaurant smelled like burnt meat and most of the employees were just standing around chatting. I think only one employee was preparing the food. I had a New Mexican LOTA Burger and the Blake's Chicken Sandwich. The employee who took my order asked for a name and then they put something random on the ticket. Why bother asking if you're not going to type it in correctly? I said my order was to-go but they marked it as dine-in. The burger was $9 and it was just as disappointing as the last time I had it. The patties were mushy, there was way too much mustard, and there was very little green chile. The $6 chicken sandwich was a sloppy mess because there was more sauce on the outside than the inside. It was also a very small sandwich. The chicken tenders were more like chicken nuggets. There are signs posted everywhere saying that any item that uses eggs will have an extra $1 charge due to a shortage. Well, the grocery stores are fully stocked with eggs so I don't know if this place has a shortage due to their company's supply chain or if they're just trying to squeeze an extra buck out of customers. I won't be visiting a Blake's again. read more

Listen we all know why the quality went down... but Jesus Christ I didn't know you could simultaneously burn and undercook hash browns it's actually a level of talent I wasn't aware of. The service is alway okay, the ambiance is always shit and that's party why we all love it and eat it still it remind you of childhood. Just wish the new owners would actually spend some money on putting out better food.. read more

Today I sampled the New Mexican style double green chile cheeseburger. It did not have enough chile and they ruined it by slopping a ton of yellow mustard on it making it pretty poor. Their fish sandwich was pretty good. On my comparative scale it scored 38 out of 50. McDonald's scored only 16. Burger King scored 36, and Long John Silver's scored 41. read more

First thing I noticed is that the restaurant is not family friendly as there is no changing table in any restroom I ordered a chocolate milkshake , medium order, fries, and asked for a courtesy water. They said they'd have to charge me for a cup if I were to get a water and charge me $2.50. I was appalled, as I was already spending money for the chocolate milkshake and the fries that they couldn't just give me a courtesy cup of water, but I paid and I sat down. The chocolate shake was pure chocolate syrup at the bottom and was not mixed very well. The fries were hot and fresh. I cannot with good conscious give this more than one star because when I started drinking the water, I was horrified to find that there was dark red spots frozen in the ice. I don't know if it was bugs, red syrup of some kind, or blood! It turned my stomach!! read more

My rating of fast food establishments continued today with a visit to Blake's Lotaburger. It has been years since we have gone to a Blake's (maybe on a trip to the Grants, NM area). My wife had the green chile burger combo and I had the double burger combo without green chile. For our sides, we shared the seasoned fries and the onion rings. Both of the sides were good. Our only complaint about the burgers, was that the buns were over toasted. Service was friendly and speedy. Typical fast food restaurant interior. read more

Food was mid. Service was good they did not mess up my order. Not busy good seats for a larger group. Next time I will be going to Whataburger instead. read more

I would love it if my hamburger actually included a hamburger patty. I could barely find the meat. What a rip off lota burger! You sure know how to ruin a fantastic reputation by becoming greedy! read more

Ordered 3 lotaburgers, double patty with cheese, seasoned fries and onion rings, the entire order was wrong!! no seasoned fries, no cheese on burgers, ONE piece of lettuce in the burgers, the buns were burned, and the patties were dry and tasteless! And this is suppose to be dinner, never never again!!! They weren't even busy... no wonder now I see why .... What a shame! This use to be a good place to get a GOOD burger, NOT NO MORE!!! Going to Texas Roadhouse... read more

Blake's has seriously gone downhill. I will not get food from them any longer. First off, if you call the store you get a robot. You can't even talk to people working and making the food. A machine takes your order. 2nd, the breakfast burritos are not made fresh when you order. They are made in the morning and sit all day waiting for someone to order. I got a breakfast burrito and the cheese was still cold. They charge you if you want to have easy hash browns. It's just getting worse and worse. I won't be coming back. read more

Hole in the wall burger joint, visually unappealing cheesy design, but lota burger is a must to try. Service was polite and efficient. As expected in a fast food burger joint. There was a new older employee that was having trouble with my order but the staff was patient and helped her out. I think I'm pretty generous for rating this a 4. I'm thinking more like 3.5. I would have given this place4.5 to 5 stars honestly if the seating inside was updated or even if they had umbrellas for outside seating. read more

These are fantastic burgers. Fresh and tasty, and their seasoned fries are delicious. I ordered their chorizo burrito for the familybfor breakfast, and we loved it. Simple and tasty! The staff are super nice and friendly. Very accommodating and patient since we were new to the menu. We reccomend Blake's and we will be returning. Thank you! read more

The staff, food, and facilities are excellent and worthy of five stars. However, the app and the phone menu is terrible with the phone menu by far the worst. You will be better served if you walk in and place the order. Because of the automated phone ordering system and app only three stars are selected. read more

Ordered over the phone and recorded didn't help my order was all messed up. I will never order over the phone again

Ordered 2 breakfast sandwiches and neither had green chili on them. Glad we were dining in so we could get a couple of containers of green chili to add to them. It would have really sucked if we had gotten our food to go and discovered the omission of ingredients long after leaving the restaurant. read more

Go to Sonic Next door!!!!! One star for the staff that I'm sure are stressed out but couldn't of made the situation better if Bryan hadn't been so overwhelmed while taking orders. 1. When you have a line of people out the door INSIDE YOUR ESTABLISHMENT - stop taking phone orders. It pisses everyone in the line off. 2. Adequately staff your place on a Sunday afternoon. 3. It took us 20 mins to order, another 20 or more to get our food - which the order was wrong. 4. A hotdog goes on a hotdog bun, not a burger bun. 5. Your large fries, there's no way in hell thats a large fry order. 6. Burger patties are over cooked. 7. Sonic is next door, and yes, I had to take my kid over there to get her food because you messed her order up - and it was cheaper. Lame. Overall - extremely disappointed because we're from out of town and our Las Cruces Native friend had raved about your place. So not only were we disappointed but they were embarrassed. No, we won't be back. read more

Lotaburger serves a pretty solid burger, but the zip from the green chiles takes it to the next level. Good fries for a fast food place. Place is clean, service is friendly, prices are reasonable. The typical fast food burger place rates 2 stars from me, so this is definitely a notch above typical fast food fare. read more

Very clean. We stopped for breakfast burritos on our way back home from Deming. Talk about fat! They also didn't skimp on the meat- bacon, chorizo, & carne adovada. They were quick and friendly. read more

This was recommended by a bunch of friends as a great local chain. I was expecting a quirky hole-in-the wall. I was expecting plates. I was expecting forks and spoons. Cole slaw, maybe potato salad. I was expecting table service and less-than clean bathrooms. Nope. It's a chain burger place. It's out to compete with Burger King, McDonalds, and (fill-in-the-blank). And it does. It's got that fast-food decor going on, antiseptic hard plastic, tile and fluorescents. Utilitarian and kid-proof. It's got burgers wrapped in foil-paper, and mine was very good. It's got plain ol' French fries, and while I didn't care for them (I like Burger King's), fries are personal and most of my friends do, so try 'em. The soda choices are few, which is kind of a bummer, but they had the basics. They also have Nathan's hot dogs, which I love (but didn't try). Don't remember seeing quirky sides, though might have missed 'em. And they have not only shakes, but malts. I love malts. Ever try one? Give it a shot. A little less mindlessly sweet; a little crystalline crunchiness; a bit of added complexity. Not quite as good a malt as Dairy Queen's (right next door), but pretty good, and since the burger was much better, I don't see a reason to stand in two fast-food lines. The service was also very good. A little slow: think Carl's Jr./ Hardees, but I think that's because of the notch-better burgers, and it wasn't TOO slow by any means. But the service was very, very friendly. And everyone working there seemed to be smiling happily and - get this - contentedly. Believe I tasted that in my chocolate malt. Seems that Blake is trying to take on the big guys, and might just have the recipe to succeed. Go there. read more

Drive 6 hours from az to visit family and Came in to get a green chili cheese burger Cause I missed newmexico green chili and blakes always had the best burger with melt your face it's so hot green chili upon request, and they forgot the green chili. The blakes down on valley is so much better food wise and customer service wise, when I called to let them know (having worked food service it was always helpful to know if there was an issue or a mistake) I was hung up on. I'll stick to the one on valley from here on out. read more

Blake's has pretty good food. But closing an hour before your posted business hours is a major inconvenience. Not happy about this.

Drove through from Orange County, CA to San Antonio TX, my husband and I were missing the Blake's breakfast burritos that we use to enjoy when we lived in ABQ, NM. Did not disappoint! It was just how we remembered! Can't wait for another trip, we already miss the food! read more

The burgers are similar to Whataburger (which I hate but husband thinks it's ok). Smallish, cheap. I opted for the pulled pork sandwich. Decent flavor for fast food. The uncoated fries sucked but the coated fries are better because they mask the tasteless fries. The shakes have artificial flavoring. Nasty. We tossed it. For the sandwiches, a 3.5. Sides and shake 2. read more

I've stopped at this Blake's Lota Burger on 3 separate occasions. Every time I got friendly outstanding service and great food. The burgers are quite good here, and the fries are usually crisp and very good as well. Normally I don't give fast food places anything higher than 3 stars, but Blake's is a step above the usual chain restaurant fare. I know of at least 2 of these shops in town, and the food at both of them is very good. read more
