I was told about this place by several different people. Finally had the opportunity to eat here. Mostly locals in this place, says a lot in a tourist town. As I travel throughout the southwest for work, I use huevos rancheros to set the bar for return visits to restaurants. Fina's had some of the best I have had in New Mexico. The green chile was outstanding! This says alot, because northern NM is know for its red chile. I can't wait to come back and try their red chile on my next visit. Do NOT miss the chance to eat here! read more

Fina's Diner - Nice, comfortable, home town diner. - New American Near Me - Chama, New Mexico

Food was good, not great. Server was also the owner, bad combo. She had no personality except to be rude and obnoxious. I was not personally affected, but witnessed awful interactions with customers and lack of personality. No ability to make customers feel welcomed. read more

After looking for a place to eat in Chama, NM. We stopped at Fina's Diner. I had a Cheeseburger with fries and my partner had a Club Sandwich. Both were a little dry and lackluster in presentation and taste. Service was nothing to write home about. We had to ask for condiments, napkins, extra water and the check. If you are headed to Chama, NM. Do yourself a favor. Stop by the local Lowe's grocery store or pack-in your own meals. 3 Stars! read more

The menu here is relatively limited and contains very ordinary lunchtime fare. Our food was good. Grilled cheese and bacon for me. Patty melt for my partner. Turkey melt for my sister. All were totally fine--unexceptional but fine. Our servers were friendly enough and very attentive. It's a small place, with seating for fewer than 10 total parties. The walls are FILLED WITH Americana, nicely typical of small town America. read more

This diner/Café has so much charm. It's overflowing. Pretty expansive menu featuring normal American type lunches with some additional Mexican fare. I went for the taco plate which came with rice and beans and cheese; chips and salsa were also included - all of this for $15! The decor of Fina's is memorabilia, primarily of Coke. They have a shelf of random hot sauces that is nice. Service is friendly and the feel of the place is warm. I would definitely stop back in here next time I'm in Chama! read more

We rarely stay in Chama but pass through every summer. We make it a point to have breakfast at Fina's Diner. Excellent burrito with fantastic green chilies. Today was no exception. Wonderful food and good service. read more

Came to Chama for a wedding! This small town gem is so beautiful! This diner most definitely has the small town vibe, famous locals and high school sports teams cover the walls, along with coca-cola collectibles and American Flags galore! There's only like 5 tables in this place but don't let that fool you. The food here is soo damn good! I got a breakfast burrito smothered in green chile... and this chile was so tasty!! Believe this chile snob. The heat was a good 8/10 but it didn't take away from the flavor of the green chile. Although it was just a breakfast burrito, it was definitely on my top 3 list! read more

First time visitor. Nice down home diner/cafe in small town Chama. Obviously a locals place based on a lot of people knowing each other. Nothing real fancy but the breakfast was very good. Service was a little lacking, had to get up and get my own coffee and serve never came back to table to see if we needed anything else, like more water, coffee or tea. read more

Food and service were great! Small dining area; room for about 30 people. Friendly server. read more

Good good and service at this authentic family restaurant; recommended for breakfast.

I've eaten here twice and neither time disappointed. Stopped for Breakfast this trip. Huevos Ranchero was good. Choice of Red or Green hot sauce. I wimped out and went with the red.

We had breakfast burritos. They were very generous size. The green chili was excellent. Staff was quick, friendly and efficient.

Small family style restaurant with limited seating. Easy to access main roads and ample parking. Food is average not bad not good. But for Mexican food it was rated number one in the trauma area so we thought we would give it a go. Everything is made with ground meat, either ground beef or ground pork. Open face burgers topped with either red or green chili seem to be popular. My husband had that and he thought it was OK. Frozen beef patty served with a few fries with condiments red chili over the top ,chili in a bowl consisted of a bowl of beans with green chili in it and topped with a little cheese served with two pieces of fried bread. Their fried bread was excellent, not a repeat for us! read more

Found ourselves in Chama for a wedding and had a fantastic breakfast at Fina's Diner. The place is so popular we had to wait a few minutes for a table but we took that as a good sign. I ordered the Elroy with a side of salsa and it was all very good..the omelette had hash browns inside which was a bit of a surprise..the salsa was fresh and very tasty. My husband ordered the Fina's Special which turned out to be a HUGE smothered burrito. Had we known how big it was going to be we would have just ordered that and split it. It was smothered with green chile that was very good. So good we heard the table over asking for a jar to take home. Our plates were so big we ended up taking a lot with us and eating it for lunch. Would definitely return the next time we're in Chama. read more

First bite was heaven. Beans cooked for hours low and slow so they melt in your mouth. The green Chile thickened just right and the red has just the right amount of burn. It was beautifully executed So on your way by on highway 84 swing on in where the locals eat and greet you as walk in with a resounding good morning. And this was a great way to start the day. read more

Looking forward to my egg & cheese and hashbrown burrito that I picked up to go for breakfast. Guy who did the carry out window was friendly and burrito huge.

Chama is a great little town, but as we learned it can be hit or miss as to whether any dining venues will be open on any given day or hour. Fina's Diner is the only place reliably open for breakfast. And all the locals know it! Fina herself is a fun force to be reckoned with, and the town's mayor served us our check. My husband ordered "Fina's Special" - the waiter didn't even blink, but boy were we surprised to see the World's Largest Burrito headed toward our table. He only made it 30% through it but enjoyed it thoroughly. A merry, lively, local joint where all the tables (ours included) engage in chatter with adjoining tables. Start your day with a dose of local Chama - at Fina's! read more

The only restaurant in town. Very personable. Family owned and run. Made a vegetarian option available to us. It started snowing, so we lost electricity -- no one cared, their kitchen is run with gas and everyone still got to eat. Loved the breakfast burrito! Recommend! read more

You order at an outside window and either take it with you or they will deliver it to the tables in the outdoor tent. They set the table with paper placemats and provide plastic cutlery and lots of napkins. Our delicious bean burritos unexpectedly came with homemade chips and salsa, and sopapias and honey. We thoroughly enjoyed the extraordinary NM cuisine and hospitality. The wait staff were lovely and engaging. Realizing restaurants are not open for dinner on Monday in Chama, we also ordered chef salads to take to our motel. I got a kick out of watching my sister -- a salad connoisseur--devour the salad without regard to ladylike table manners. Fina's was a delightful northern NM experience. We wish Fina's staff all good things... We will return. read more

Why I love Yelp: probably would have passed this little spot up because it's not much to look at and easy to miss. We had the red chili and the green chili. Both are simple dishes with beans and topped with lots of cheese and onions. Green is a bit spicier. Both were great, but would have to give the tie breaker to the red chili. The sopapillas that come with the chili were delightful. Light and puffy, good without or with the honey. As good as eating beignets at Cafe du Monde. read more

The staff was pleasant and the place was warm and welcoming. The earlier you get there the better, because this is a popular place for breakfast! If you're a regular, they seem to treat you like family. To top it all off, the food was amazing! The best hash browns I've ever had (and the omelet and toast were great too). Definitely stop by if you're in town and have time. read more

Anytime I have the pleasure of visiting Chama and it's beautiful surroundings, Fina's is my go-to destination for a great meal. I recently rolled through in the morning and had to try the breakfast burrito smothered in green chilies. What an eye opener! It was the best I've had and the green chilies were top shelf with a good kick. Lunch is also an experience you shouldn't miss. When in Chama eat at Fina's! read more

Wow. Just mex style diner food but they really have it down. Breakfast burritos are huge, filling, not too greasy, still really good. Service is good as well. This place has it together. read more

Didn't go in, but the gentleman at the window was fantastic. Very friendly. The food was killer. Got the smothered burrito Christmas style and it was to die for. Will absolutely be returning. read more

The food was awesome when we stopped on Oct. 5th and then again on Oct. 6th, 2021. I got a breakfast burrito that was huge and delicious. I used to live in Chama and I was so looking forward to Fina's green chile, and it was just as good as I remembered. I took the other half of the burrito with me and ate it over the next two days. So good! One morning we ate outside in the tent, and the service was just as prompt and friendly as it is inside. So glad they are still in business after adapting to Covid, and going strong! read more

Absolutely delicious breakfast! We had Huevos Rancheros and a regular burrito. Both the red the green sauce were legit and delicious! The staff was friendly and attentive. Highly recommend Fina's! read more
