Very undercooked... asked for chilly and that was the coldest, most spiciest green slop I've ever tasted in my life, couldn't even finish a spoon of it. The only thing I could appreciate was the sausage links. The place setting was okay for a "Family Restaurant" country music and flies on food... I could only imagine what the kitchen was like. I rarely leave reviews but this one deserves it so I never come back. The only reason I'll give it 2 stars is because they took the chilli off my check and the waitress was nice and quick. Overall 3/10 based of my experience.

I got to the hamburger joint only to find out it is drive through/takeout only. So I returned here and managed to snag a parking spot that had just opened up.. It looked promising from the big smiles on people leaving. I went in and the large party just in front of me was just getting seated. But it took me a while to get seated because I wasn't noticed. Once seated, it took another long while for a server to appear with chips and a very tasty salsa which proved the best part of the meal. Looking over the menu and the "tourist"Mexico decor and colors, I could tell it was distributor-driven. The beers and the desserts had obviously been distributor "suggestions". My experience over the last 35 years eating out on the road several hundred times a year made it obvious. I decided on a burrito plate and asked the server which chile was spiciest. He said the red was very spicy so I went with the burrito chile colorado. C'mon dude, this is New Mexico! That chile wasn't spicy at all! Utterly bland is the word! So dinner was a big disappointment.. When I was done, I was asked if I wanted dessert. I asked if anything was homemade. Nothing. It all came industrially produced by a food service company. This place is not my style. I won't be back.

Service - A+ Nice people work here…read more What would we order again? * Guacamole * Salsa - I thought this salsa was perfectly spicy. Not so hot you had to stop eating or couldn't taste your food, but just enough kick to feel it. * Tacos Entree - Three tacos (I ordered chicken) with rice and beans. The tacos didn't need any salsa on them. They were delicious as is. * Flautas Entree - My boyfriend loved these! * Sopapillas with honey. Good Lord these are so tasty!

My first bite of the burrito was also my last. Everything minus the tortilla tasted as if it came out of a can it had the hint of aluminum and most of the beans weren't cooked all the way through it just wasn't edible. The one star is for the worker who gave us a near by location of a park. I personally can't give the food here a good review it doesn't mean that others won't like it.

From the…read moreoutside, it's a smaller building but inside is converted into an amazing business with authenticity. I will start with the host and server we had. Both ladies were excellent, fun and very very welcoming. Nicest people we have met thus far driving from Nevada. Always smiling, not hanging over you while you eat, and extremely polite. The food was absolutely incredible. Over a week traveling with numerous stops, La Casita De Cortez absolutely comes out on top easily. Homemade food with passion behind it and generous portions. Everything was cooked to perfection and tasted incredible. The drinks were also impeccable with a decent variety of margaritas and others. Stop here if you can and enjoy every second of it! You won't regret it!

My wife and I were visiting family in Farmington, where we both grew up, and one of the things we…read morealways look forward to is the amazing local food. Doña María has earned a permanent spot on our list of must-visit restaurants every time we're back in town. The service was exceptional from start to finish. Karen took incredible care of us and our family. Even though we were a fairly needy group, she was consistently professional, friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. Her positive attitude made an already great dining experience even more memorable. I can't say enough how amazing she was! From the breakfast burritos to dinner, everything we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and authentic. The homemade tortillas were absolutely outstanding and complemented every meal perfectly. The portions were generous, and every dish reminded us why we love coming back home. The restaurant has a warm, welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel comfortable from the moment you walk in. It's the kind of place where you can relax, enjoy a great meal, and feel right at home. Overall, between the incredible food, exceptional service, and inviting atmosphere, Doña María has become one of our go-to spots whenever we're in Farmington. We highly recommend it to anyone looking for authentic New Mexican food and genuine hospitality. We can't wait to come back on our next visit!

"Amy moves like a quiet tide between tables, balancing plates like small, shining moons. Her smile is warm bread, her voice a soft clink of glasses at dusk. She knows who wants lemon, who needs a moment, who came in carrying the weight of a long day. She sets it down gently beside the forks. The ice is good here-- clear, bright, and singing in every cup, little crystals that catch the light like laughter you didn't expect. And the food-- oh, the food arrives like a promise kept: golden, fragrant, alive with comfort, each bite a reason to stay a little longer. Amy drifts through it all, steady as a heartbeat, turning hunger into something softer-- something like home"

Rice and beans were exactly right. The chicken fajitas were hot, flavorful, and cooked just right. The fried ice cream was great too. I wouldn't call it a hole-in-the-wall, but the atmosphere is pretty bare bones. That's okay because the food is the reason to come here. Great prices, friendly service, and really good Mexican food. We'd happily eat here again next time we're in Cortez.
