We ate lunch at Mission At the Bell Restaurant Sunday on our way home from Albuquerque. We were…read moreseated in the sunny back room as soon as we arrived. Chips and Salsa were presented as we sat. The chips and salsa were delicious! Surprise ... we found out that Sunday was all day happy hour. I ordered the large margarita ($10) and I loved it. My husband's beer was also discounted for HH. I ordered the chile relleno from the lunch menu. It came with tasty beans and fideo ... which was less to my liking (a bit oily). The Relleno was good. I particularly liked the crisp coating when it was hot. The husband had the lunch chicken burrito with green chili. He enjoyed it but thought the sauce was a bit excessively black-peppered. Our server was top notch. She was prompt, professional and friendly. The prices and portions are great. This is a really good find.

We stopped at Tequila's in Trinidad on a Wednesday night while passing through town, and it ended…read moreup being a really fun little find. The building itself is great -- adobe-style, colorful, and exactly what you hope a Mexican restaurant looks like. When you walk in, the atmosphere is lively and welcoming. We were greeted right away and seated immediately. Chips and salsa came out quickly. The salsa tasted fresh and traditional, but it had a little more kick than I personally can handle. (If you like spicy, you'll probably love it.) We also ordered guacamole, because we order guacamole everywhere we go -- it's kind of our thing. This one surprised us a bit. Instead of the usual chunky guac with onions and tomatoes, it was more like mashed avocado with a generous amount of red pepper flakes. Unfortunately that pushed it into "too spicy for me" territory. For drinks we shared a piña colada, which was fantastic -- topped with whipped cream and a cherry and exactly what you want after a long day of driving. I ordered the combo fajitas (chicken and steak) and they came out sizzling hot on the classic cast-iron platter with peppers, onions, and tomatoes. Always a good sign when you can hear your dinner coming from across the room. It came with rice, beans, sour cream, and guacamole on the side. The rice had a nice smoky flavor and the beans were topped with melted cheese -- both really good. They don't automatically include shredded cheese with the fajitas, but they happily brought some when I asked. My husband ordered the chicken and cheese quesadilla appetizer, but when it arrived we both laughed because it was enormous -- definitely entrée-sized. He said it was really good and had no trouble finishing it. Service was a little slow, but the place was busy and had a great vibe. It felt like one of those local spots people in town love. It's also right near the highway, which probably makes it a popular stop for travelers like us. Prices were about what you'd expect for a sit-down Mexican restaurant. No military discount, but overall still a solid experience. If we find ourselves driving through Trinidad again, we'd absolutely stop back in.

We were seated right away, and our server was friendly and efficient. I ordered the jalapeño margarita and the Wok sesame chicken. The chicken was definitely spicier than the margarita. There's lots of seating and a great view of the sunset from one of the dining areas.

Elk sausage, mushrooms, green chile, ooey gooey cheese, and oh my, my tastebuds came alive! The crust had just the right amount of crisp on the bottom, while the sauce had a delicious complimentary exchange with the ingredients. I ate way more than what I'd normally eat for lunch! Then to top that off, I was offered hot honey to finish off the crust that was absolutely fantabulous on it's own. This was the perfect way to complete an amazing pie! It was so good, that we ate the leftovers for dinner, and we were just as pleased, minus the great company that the restaurant offers with their local vibe and interest in your experience. Super cool folks! I also, out of curiosity, ordered a single slice with my go-to favorite... hamburger, pineapple, jalapeno, and extra cheese. It was tantalizing!
