    What an unexpected delight! Here we are, driving through the night and tired of food that comes in bags, and we decided to get Mountain View Restaurant. What. A. Treat. This place has a lovely family history, and prides itself on the freshness and simplicity of ingredients. The green chili is amazing. The tacos and burrito were absolutely fantastic. Even the salsa is yummy. Top that off with wonderfully friendly staff (they brought us samples of chili - well, it worked), and you have a fantastic experience. My only caution is they don't rush here, so if you're in a hurry, maybe try it next time. However, if you (like us) want to sit and enjoy, then this is a must-stop. Yum!

    We are visiting from out of town. First time going here and everything was perfect. Restaurant was extremely clean and well laid out. We were sat quickly and our waitress came right over and took our drink order. After hearing this was our first time there she pointed out several of their top sellers. It was lunch but if it was dinner I would have gotten the steak and enchilada. It was lunch so I got the monte burger. It was amazing and the fries were nice and crispy. The service was super quick and very friendly. Totally recommend this place!!!

    Beautiful interior, photo taken right at closing.

    What a delightful little gem we found at Mountain View Restaurant. The interior is beautiful, the staff is as friendly as it gets, and the chefs know how to make delicious food. The restaurant has a relaxing atmosphere, enabling us to just chill and recharge over a great meal. This restaurant is known for their steak and rightly so. I asked if they could make a steak burrito which is slightly off-menu as the primary burrito filling choices are beef or chicken. My request was honored with zero resistance and an incredibly fair up-charge. Most places throw in a great number of things into a burrito to try and distract you, but not here. This burrito was PACKED FULL OF STEAK! This is the stuff dreams are made of, MEATRITO. The steak inside my burrito was: Perfectly tenderized Perfectly trimmed to get rid of gristle and hard fat Perfectly medium rare (as requested) Perfectly seasoned Perfectly melted in the mouth The green chili has some unique features that might get a green chili purist upset, but I found the small changes to be welcome and delicious. I won't give away their secret recipe, but it is packed full of green chilis and absolutely complimented my steak burrito perfectly. The locally grown potatoes on the plate were surprising, but definitely not out of place as they provided a great change but complimentary flavor alongside the steak burrito, green chili, and beans on the plate. You will love the steak here and if you love a good burrito, pay for the steak upgrade. It's legit.

    Totally filled up on fresh mex

    Hmmm next door to subway... will I regret this decision? Mexican or burgers?? Let's see how they do mexican!! Salsa is fresh as can be even if the chips are straight out of a movie theatre nacho bag . Service is super polite and wicked fast! Guy next to me has fries... wish I did as I'm in Colorado potatoes country :-) Quesidilla is great, comes with Pico, sour cream and guacamole with Green Chile so fresh it had to be made this morning. By the way... clean bathroom too. Although need to tighten up the toilet. No regrets

    Mmmmmm

    Best place we ate in Monte Vista! The green chili was excellent and the service was great! We will be back on our next visit.

    Friendly,  extremely clean, nice rustic, music not loud.

    Everything is overpriced by a dollar or two. Just the standard freezer to fryer fare. Service is great though.

    The green chili was amazing. Too many beans on the combo plates but highly recommend the chili relleno.

    Had breakfast here one morning. Great atmosphere, and friendly and very attentive service. They do…read morehave a counter if you perfer, but I usally sit in the dining area. The half order of Hawaiian French toast I had was very good as well as my eggs and toast. The dine in area is nice and usually they very busy, but the food comes out fast and your coffee cup never runs dry. Overall, overall the best sit down breakfast place in this area and I has another great experience.

    The restaurant part of the Silver Cliff Mountain Inn is known as Willie's! At first we were…read moresomewhat confused, however, I am really glad we sorted it out!!! Our breakfast was nothing short of fabulous!!! My wife ordered the Red Velvet waffles that had scrambled eggs and bacon on the side. I ordered the Eggs Benedict that was smothered in Hollandaise sauce and hash browns - not something that you will get at home on a regular basis. WOW!!! Both entrees were so good that it will have us coming back for more!! We had the privilege of meeting Willie as he was working the crowd. As we travel around the country, I find that if the manager/owner is working the crowd it's bound to be a great place - for sure in this case with Willie's. I told him that I call that "Leadership On Duty"!!! Three staff members also worked our table. Bow, Terri, and Summer, each had a division of duties and, as a result, we were really taken care of. The ambience was truly out of the western small town mode - clean, efficient service, and fabulous food. Four cups of the best coffee and a full stomach and was time to hit the road back home. Give Willie's a try as you will not be disappointed. Be sure to say "hi" to Willie, Bow, Terri, and Summer - they are the best.
