The chips were fresh and the salsas were tasty! I ordered chilaquiles, he recommended the red ones. The salsa was delicious (a bit too hot, and I can take hot) the chilaquiles chips were freshly fried and they were crispy and chewy, perfect to my taste. I paired them with a pineapple agua fresca, and it was also made from real fruit and delicious. I was very glad I decided to give it a chance. The food was way better than average. Pretty much the the best Mexican food I've had in Ruidoso. It had real depth and real Mexican tones. Not just some guy making Mexican food, but someone that knows the true depth of Mexican flavors.

My favorite item here was the burritos. They were a good size and had good flavor. My second…read morefavorite thing was the Horchata, it was so delicious and refreshing. The variety of salsa they had were quite good too, they varied in spiciness so I'm sure anyone could find one they'd like. The caldo de res was good, but I prefer it made with a different type of meat. The pozole could have used more hominy but that's just personal preference, it had good flavor but it was very spicy so keep that in mind if you can't handle heat. The place has plenty of seating, free WiFi, and good friendly service. The only thing lacking was ambiance, at least when I was there, there was no music playing, just the sound of other customers eating, and my thoughts. You order at the counter, they do have to-go orders, and they have a large variety of options on their menu so if you're hungry I'm sure you'll find something you'll like.

It's disappointing to leave this less-than-stellar review, but the food was sad. I was…read morespecifically looking for a Mexican restaurant serving some steak with some infamous green chili on top. I ordered take-out to take back to my Airbnb nearby. The staff was super friendly, and my order came out within a reasonable time. However, the food was nothing exciting in terms of flavor and quality. First, I tried the jalapeno poppers stuffed with cheddar cheese. The cheese was okay- reminded me of Kraft cheese. The outer breaded portion of the poppers was bland and did not help the flavor profile at all. I just started eating the jalapenos after ripping off the breaded coating. The side salad looked decent and fresh, but no dressing was to be found anywhere. I made due and consumed it alongside the Chuleta a la Tampiquena, which was the thin-cut ribeye entree. The ribeye was average, as was the enchilada and rice. The onions and one green pepper on top helped, but the flavors just weren't popping like a fiesta! I could attribute this to the lack of freshness. The enchilada seemed barely baked, smothered in red sauce with barely any cheese. For context, I was home in 10 minutes, replating and reheating it again. The next evening, I decided not to roll the dice and cook my own green chili concoction the following evening. I don't know how the experience is dining in or having cocktails here, but I am not inclined to find out next time I'm in Ruidoso.

Unfortunately, the food was so bland and smothered in sauce & cheese, the salsa served at the table was green chili (not salsa) and super hot, the margarita was not tasty at all. We were hoping for solid tacos, enchiladas, and beans & rice based on the ambience and staff. The enchiladas were covered in a mediocre sauce and too much cheese, the chili relleno was under cooked and the rice tasted strangely like fried-rice. The best tasting thing was the beef taco but even that was weird bc it was a beef & rice mixture, but it was good.

I chose home fries as a side for both and ordered 2 cups or orange juice. While the service was great, I wasn't impressed with the food. My omelette was on the dry side and the cheese wasn't melted nor on the entire omelette, it was off to one side. My husband said his burrito was ok and the salsa was good. The home fries were dry and not hot. The orange juice was also very watered down. It appears that it may be better to dine in here and try other dishes as some people rave about this eatery.

The portions are generous, and the prices are very reasonable, especially compared to Texas. The only thing I wish they had was a spicy green chile salsa since New Mexico is famous for its green chile. The red salsa was good but not spicy. My oldest also thought the chorizo burrito was a little too greasy, but everything else was delicious. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in Ruidoso!
