    So much delicious food!
    Judi D.

    I have really grown to like this place It's very much a local favorite. Reliably good food. Almost always busy but usually not packed to the gills. Food is good New Mexican Servers are awesome. Last week we had Amanda and Kyle and they took great care of us It's a relaxed homey setting. Clean, comfortable. Clearly families come here regularly And so do many police (so behave! )

    Usually Grandpa's Grill is good, I ordered the BBQ ribs special, the baked potato was gross, ribs sucked

    Crappy food, lower prices and be honest about quality of food, waiters need better customer service skills

    Grandpas menu. So many great options.

    I have been in the area for over a week now and I have eaten here twice. My niece brought me here and I have to say it's really a great place. First visit I had the bbq ribs with a baked potato and it came with a side of what looked like an attempt at refried beans with a squirt of bbq sauce in it. It was pretty good. Today we went in because their burgers look amazing. As you walk in they're cooking everything right there to your left as you go in. You order your food off the menu before you sit down and they bring it to you. As well as your drink order. One problem right of the bat is the plexiglass they have in front of the person talking your order. Preventing them from hearing anything. They're struggling to hear what people are saying. Today I ordered onion rings with my burger and I got French fries instead. The guy just didn't hear what I said. Luckily I didn't get charged for it. I ordered the Papa Burger with pepper jack cheese and bacon. That was one hell of a burger. The fixins are on a cart as you go to your seat. Where you can add what you want to your burger. The only gripe I think I can say about this place is that you have to ask for napkins. Both times I've been in I've had to ask. As well as silverware. But the staff is very friendly and helpful. So it's not a deal breaker. I wish I lived closer because I would eat here a few times a week. I'd love to try their breakfast. But overall this place is pretty awesome. Definitely worth a try.

    Chicken and Beef Combo Fajitas

    After seeing good reviews and decent pics from this place, I thought I was safe to go to Grandpa's. It's really mediocre. The staff is inexperienced in serving. The sandwiches won't fill you up. The dinner dishes are ok. The BLT we ordered had burnt toast, very little bacon and no mayo. Completely unimpressive, the waitress asked if we wanted new toast and walked off without the sandwich. She just brought back some toast for us to fix the sandwich ourselves. The fajitas were only ok. I'll give it one more chance on Tuesday for Taco Tuesdays. I was hoping for better food.

    Double cheeseburger.

    The burger I ordered was the double bacon avocado cheeseburger, burgers are small in comparison to the buns, dry and a bit rubbery, paper thin bacon strips (kinda reminded me of the Costco pre cooked microwaveable bacon) and no avocado. Chili cheese fries weren't bad. Missing heat from the chili but at least they had a sauce. Definitely friendly service. Wait staff were very polite and checked in on us throughout the meal. Nice spot as far as interior design. Almost an old timey feel.

    Western burger.
    Jeff K.

    Traveled to Gallup for work. Ended up stopping here because of the other positive reviews. Friendly and very attentive staff. It was cool watching them make my burger fresh. All the toppings in the lil condiment bar were fresh and consistently chopped. Now for my burger. It was cooked perfect and held together really well. I ordered the western burger. I only ate half of it and had the resr for dinner later. Great bang for your buck and service with a smile. Who doesn't like that?

    Always friendly and good service. Breakfast menu is limited but everything on it is too notch. Chorizo and eggs is almost always my choice.

    Grandpas Grill is our go-to spit when we stop in Gallup. Burgers are good and taste like you grilled them in your backyard- but better.

    The staff was friendly. Unfortunately, the meat in the steak fajita was fatty and gristlely, and the dish was cold

    I like the food, but, it's over priced, the portions are small, or the order is forgotten!! Not going there anymore!

The hamburger had awesome flavor, fresh onions, lettuce, pickles, tomatoes. Fries were prepared great!! The service was excellent. The server did great, checked up on us, refilled our drinks, got the order correct. Interacted with us and other customers. The place was just perfect, not loud or too quiet. Just was great!!

Green Chile Stew - Cuts of Stewed Beef, Carrots, Potatoes, Celery and some Hot Green Chile served with a side of Tortillas. I thought it was delicious! Didn't care too much for the tortillas, might opt for the sopapillas next time but the stew was great. Definitely recommend if you can handle the spicyness. Combo Platter - Choice of three, had the Tamale, Relleno and Enchilada, Xmas style (red and green Chile) served with a side of Rice and Beans. Thought it was okay, stew was definitely better. Also had the Chips and Salsa to start, was good but the salsa could have been spicier. Our server was great, very nice and gave some good recommendations. Was very quiet so the atmosphere was good, also have a bar next door. It was my first time here but definitely recommend the stew, have to try more of the menu next time. But give it a go.

Talk about cooked to perfection, with the medley of green chile and other varieties of flavors. Let's just say that it did not last long at all on my plate!!! I think that the portion sizes were great and I was very full, and felt like I got my moneys worth. Our Waitress was bursting with personality, and made sure to check on us to see if we were doing okay! My first experience was superb, and I will definitely be stopping by again pretty soon!

We both ordered Navajo tacos. The fry bread was more like ""Pizza edge", pizza crust, which is great, but it's not an Indian or Navajo fry bread. The green salsa was excellent, the red salsa was OK. The meat, which was ground beef, I did not care for it. Left an aftertaste like it was going bad or something. They use whole beans as supposed to refried beans which was good and the shredded lettuce and vegetables were also OK. Overall, if I had to go back there again, I wouldn't order the Navajo taco. I might try something else, if it's only a bowl of that green chili and tortilla.
