We stopped in here along our route from petrified forest national park to Socorro NM. We had…read moreintended to order steaks but decided on different items mainly due to price once we saw the menu. They steaks were each about $35 per plate which isn't bad but more than we really wanted to spend. So our group ordered some different items from the menu and were happy with our choices! Service was a little slow but there was only one waitress taking orders, delivering food, and bussing tables. We also ordered a couple slices of pie. We're from the south and are just passing through on a road trip but the pie wasn't quite what we're used to back home. They were just okay.

I would give this place more than 5 if I could. We had breakfast and the potatoes were nice and…read morecrispy, generous 4 slices of bacon. We enjoyed talking the owner and the servers But the capstone was the pie. Breakfast is the perfect time to have a piece of pie with ice cream. We had the apple pie and most apple pie is disappointing. This was seasoned just right and the crust was perfect (hard to get good crust in a pie). We even took a whole pie with us. If I lived nearby I would be 300 lbs, as this is huge win. I had wanted to come to this place for some time, so arranged our travel this year and I'm so glad we did. Don't miss stopping here. A true American cafe experience

A Desert Gem: Navajo Blue Travel Plaza If you're cruising…read morethrough the heart of the Navajo Nation near Flagstaff, you have to stop at Navajo Blue Travel Plaza. It's more than just a pit stop; it's a cool, modern tribute to Diné culture with some of the best food on the road. The Highlight: The "Soo Big Burger" is the star of the show. You can get it on a standard bun, but the move is definitely ordering it on fresh Navajo Fry Bread. It's made with 100% Navajo Beef, and the quality is obvious from the first bite. If you like heat, be sure to add the green chile for that authentic Southwest kick. Final Verdict: Whether you're a local or just passing through to see the monuments, this spot is a "must." Great food, rich culture, and a perfectly "cool" atmosphere.

It's roughly 15 miles north on the very scenic and freshly paved, perfectly smooth Hwy 279 from the Laguna, NM I-40 exit ramp (about 1-hour from Albuquerque). I jumped on the motorcycle and made the trip out there. It did not disappoint!! The green chile wasn't very hot, but it had great flavor. An ice cold beer paired with this burger was the perfect New Mexican lunch! The bar looks exactly how you'd expect when arriving to an over 100 year old bar!
