The food was good but the service was very slow although there were only a few customers there. My food was cold.

Passing through Blanca we decided to grab a quick lunch. Pleasantly surprised. Lots of options, Mexican and American dishes. Something for everyone. And a slice of chocolate cake as big as my face you can tell is homemade. read more

Food amazing. Service friendly. Ambiance old town vibe. Hands down the best chicken fried steak I've had. The cut of meat is thick, and tender. Only needed a fork to cut my steak. Eggs were perfectly executed. Toast served perfectly. Hash-browns made perfect to order. read more

Lu's Main Street Cafe - Best margarita hands and Telluride on tap! - Mexican Near Me - Blanca, Colorado

An off the road diner located in Blanca, Colorado. The burgers are pretty good, nothing too much to brag about. Not a big fan of the catfish nuggets to be honest. Overall, the food is great considering there's not much to eat out here. Great service with an old-timey vibe type of restaurant. Definitely worth pulling over for! read more

Lu's is GREAT! We ate breakfast there first, a great omelette for me and eggs, toast and sausage for my husband. You can tell there are folks that eat there every day, the server (who worked her butt off) knew almost everyone and what they want. We went back for dinner and there was a great duo playing ... again the service was fast and friendly, the food good, and the entertainment spot-on. You gotta go to Lu's! read more

Service was good. 6 of us dining and only the Philly cheese steak was worth noting. Sorry

We stopped here just on a whim. Had the Ruben sandwich. Totally amazing. This is a must stop

My friend group and I went here not thinking much, but wow. If you are close by I highly recommend eating here! They have great American food here (friend's patty melts were amazing) and Mexican food. The chips and guacamole were incredible and fresh. read more

Much better than you'd think strolling into the one cafe in a small town in the middle of nowhere. Though I think we all know that sometimes those are the best places. I wouldn't say this was the best but it was very good. One of us had a burger. It was good. Not the best or worst he's had. A Philly cheesesteak with curly fries on the side that my husband said was good. Sopapillas smothered in red Chile sauce that my son really liked. I had the tamales smothered in green Chile sauce. They were good and had some residual heat. They came with rice and beans. On this long stretch of limited choices, it was a good meal. read more

Love this place! The food is always good!!! Friendly service. The menu has lots of options.

My husband ordered the steak and it was so thin and small. It was paper thin, and didn't taste good. The price was ridiculously high. We did not go back. read more

Lu's Main Street Cafe - Nice ambiance - Mexican Near Me - Blanca, Colorado

I stopped with my daughter to grab some dinner. I had the Kester's special and she had a burger. It's an unassuming place right off the main drag. I am sure they get a lot of folks just passing through but it seems popular with locals too. My Kester's special (Mexican combo of beef taco, cheese enchilada and beef enchilada) was super yummy. It came with rice and beans which were seasoned well. It's was a bit too much food for me, but I managed to eat it all. haha. I will stop in again and check out the rest of the menu. Great local find! read more

Suprisingly good, its right off the main highway, fast and very filling. i had a smothered beef burrito with green chili and i would say its better than Chubbys if you are from Denver Colorado. It wasnt to hot but had a nice flavor. the menu is limited for those that have kids... so no kids menu as a fyi. when in the aread i will be going back. pricing was a little high but it filled me up so it was worth the cost. read more

Lu's Main Street Cafe - Chili Relleno with green chili is on point, service was great! Waitress did awesome. Recommend - Mexican Near Me - Blanca, Colorado

They do not have a menu online and are not willing to tel you the menu over the phone so good luck! We guessed and ordered chicken burritos. Got them to go (coronavirus). Chips and guac. Everything was good! It was about 40$ for two burritos and chips and guac, so not cheap. But not bad! If I was driving through again I would get food from here again. Looks like a nice place to go if you can stop and have a drink and hang out too! read more

Lu's Main Street Cafe - No menus available online or anywhere else this was as close as I got haha - Mexican Near Me - Blanca, Colorado

The food is fantastic (best fish and chips I've had in a while - the batter/fry is incredible), it's a relaxed atmosphere and the staff are all very friendly. read more

Nice small roadside diner Stopped for early dinner very busy at 4 pm on a Thursday Had cheese steak sandwich with green chiles wife had hamburger Food was tasty and well prepared and reasonable price Staff was a bit thin with only the cook and one waitress but the hood came out in a reasonable time as the crowd arriving grew I'd stop again next trip through read more

Service was slow and I found the grande burrito with red and green sauce lacking flavor. Wife got fish and chips with the fish also lacking flavor. Was going to give the place a 2 star but the pies were pretty good. read more

Came by Lu's for lunch and I was not disappointed! I had the hook up burger with bacon, and it was cooked to perfection. The green chile is a nice addition and the fries were delicious. Sadly they were out of sopapillas and the ice cream machine was broken. Had the cherry pie for dessert and it was perfect. Our server was very friendly and attentive. Didn't get his name, but he's from Indiana. It's worth stopping by Lu's! read more

Fantastic small cafe! I recommend the pork chops Mexicana for dinner and the huevos rancheros for breakfast. The green chili is amazing! Very friendly staff, great service! read more

Possibly the very best Reuben sandwich I've ever had. Sophia provided us with 5 Star Service with a beautiful smile. Delicious cheeseburgers. The bacon was to die for. In fact, some little piggy did. The curly fries made my toes curl. This has now become a must stop on the way To, or From, The Great Sand Dunes! Simply amazing! read more

Enjoyed our lunch here. The green chili tasted good. The fish and chips were fantastic. We loved the fries. Beef tacos were fairly basic but tasty. Really good spot and the employees are so friendly and helpful. This place would be a shining star in a bigger city but very thankful with this being the only choice we found near the Sand Dunes park that this was a great lunch. Thanks again! read more

This restaurant is an oasis in a cross-country traveler's journey. The owner and his wife we quite personable. The Mexican options were en pointe, as was their chicken fried steak and burger offerings. It's right off the main road, so quite convenient for those who are passing through. read more

My husband & I had the breakfast burrito smothered in Green Chile sauce. The sauce could have had a bit more heat but was still yummy and satisfied our taste buds! Our waitress was very helpful and attentive. She did a great job keeping our coffee cups full. Restaurant is clean & neat & so were the bathrooms. A little pricey compared to home, but money well spent as place is a gem for the surrounding area!! read more

Open sign was on and it was well before closing time. We were told they were closing when we walked in by a grumpy female bartender. Smelled odd. Wouldn't recommend. read more

The food here was not good! My French Dip had almost no flavor. ITs like they tried to make it bland. And the taco was terrible. You'd think some Mexican food in a diner in a small town who have some flava! No, these were pre-formed shells like you get at the grocery store, no flavor to he eat at all. WOW. As impel lunch took over an hour, including waiting 15 minutes to get our check when we anted to roll. I wanted to love Lu's. I don't. read more

Outstanding homemade food! Great place! Yummy wings, breakfast, burgers and Mexican food!!

Best burger period. Double hookup = my choice for my last meal on the planet. Per usual, I stopped her on Friday to eat on my way to Taos and Monday on my way back. I thought I should mix it up a bit and asked Lu is there was something else on the menu that I should try outside my normal burger or cheese steak. She recommended the "Maria's Plate"? A chile relleno, a sirloin steak and a tostata. The chile relleno was excellent and the steak was juicy. *note, Lu renovated the place and it is like a new restaurant. Wood floors, ceiling and a nice new, huge bar. I did not take pictures of the new inside, someone needs to. read more

Lu's Main Street Cafe - Double hookup burger with extra green chilies! Best.burger.ever. - Mexican Near Me - Blanca, Colorado

Went on a recommendation by a local and they were right. Drove right up. Quaint Cafe! One cook and one waitress. Handled it like professionals. While I was there you could tell who the locals were. They just kept coming in for breakfast. I had ordered the "BEAR" breakfast. It consisted of one egg, choice of 2 strips of Bacon or 1 sausage, 1 biscuit split open smothered in GRAVY, and hash browns. Yummy. This breakfast was very good. They have several breakfast combos to choose from both American and Mexican. You won't be disappointed! Bring the family. It was the first meal worthy of its price since landing in Denver. I will always come back for more! read more

Pretty solid place to eat. I'd even return if f wasn't in the middle of nowhere. Only two knocks against them, no sweet tea and the prices are a couple dollars too high per entry. With that said, you will be satisfied eating here. read more

This place was a hidden gem. We stopped for a late lunch/early supper on our way back from The Great Sand Dunes. Steve was excellent from the moment we entered to the moment we left. They take such good care of you. I got the beer battered fish, with salad and fries. It was excellent. The pricing is so reasonable! Everything about this place spoke freshness and taste. Will definitely be recommending this place for anyone heading over to the dunes! read more

Visited Blanca for a two day business trip. Day one had lunch at Lu's ordered chili Rellenos and they were outstanding! Stopped in on the way home and had the tortilla burger. Also ordered a quart of green chili to go. Great people, great care in food preparation. read more

We stopped in for lunch and had a wonderful experience. The service was excellent and the food was exceptional. Everything was super fresh. The green chile sauce was mind blowing! Highly recommend the tortilla burger with the green chile sauce. read more

If your in Blanca pass this one up. Super slow. The waiters were there worse I've ever seen in 41 yrs of my life. Those poor young men. I was not greeted or seated or even given silverware. Begged for coffee and condiments so did the other customers.. The food was over cooked after the hr wait. read more

Food was okay but we had to swallow it whole after waiting almost an hour for it to come out. I don't know if this is usual or not, but something to keep in mind if you're on a schedule. Tamales and sauces were tasty. They charge big time for chips and salsa, sour cream, etc. Wanted to like this place but between our waitress seeming not to care and the long wait it's hard to. Couldn't get an answer if our food was ever coming and couldn't get paper towels for the restroom. All and all, next time I'll keep driving. read more

perfect little stop on our way to Wolf Creek. clean and great food. would definitely stop there on the way home!

This place was wonderful! We stopped to have breakfast after visiting the sand dunes and don't regret it one bit! The staff was so kind and friendly. The food was phenomenal. I definitely recommend the crispy breakfast rellenos, so good! read more
