I got a frito pie with all of the fixings. The rest of my family got burgers. It was a good alternative to big chain fast food restaurants on our drive from Santa Fe to Taos. The service was friendly. It's a drive in so you either eat in your car or take it to go.

Me, I had the Dandy combo and I enjoyed the spicy chili on top of the burger. It was a delightful change from the typical burger that does not have this type of seasoning. A solid recommendation for weary travelers.

Inside is very generic but I do like the outside seating area. I remember when I was young there was a place that would announce your number over an intercom. Now that made my day. 80s music is playing and I just sat there listening to it. I must say the chilli is good, excellent taste. This is what is used in the frito pie. Good. I'll come back just for the chili on a hot dog. For the frito pie they give a small bag of Fritos. Not enough and I'm sure not there fault. I am sure the quantity has shrunk with inflation.

They tried to blame it on the computer. Bad business. I tried to explain to her i didn't want extra and she didn't want to hear it- she just shook her head and said if it's not inside it's extra. Don't recommend unless you like being taken advantage of. For a place trying to make it, they need to try harder. The bfast burrito tasted good, though it definitely lacked salt. My partner had the huevos rancheros and he said they were good. So wanted to update on the actual food. Still won't return due to poor practices with overcharging.

It is locally owned and operated and often the lowriders of the community can be spotted here. The only downside is the hours. Eating inside is a great little lunch spot, where you can get the jukebox going. The prices are reasonable and the company is always upbeat.

We ordered their green chile chicken enchiladas, red chile beef enchiladas, calabacitas, street tacos, and more! Throughout dinner, many people came up to us and were thrilled with the food and expressed how tasty it was, even us from Northern New Mexico were incredibly impressed. Just the right spice level, everything was hot, and the service was amazing. If you are looking to cater a wedding in Northern New Mexico, we highly recommend La Fonda Del Sol. Thank you for making our night even more special.
