    Complimentary chips and salsa
    Brandi P.

    We stopped by this lovely restaurant while we were out and about because we were hungry running errands and Pajar did not disappoint. The food was tasty the complimentary salsa had a nice kick and the staff was super friendly. I was especially impressed with the quesabirra tacos and the meat inside was delicious. If you are looking for something different to try I would recommend this lovely restaurant.

    Quesabirria

    Mi amigo y yo estamos actualmente en un viaje por carretera de Florida a California y hemos estado parando para conseguir birria en el camino. Esto reemplaza a todos los restaurantes en los que hemos comido. Esta fue una de las mejores comidas de cerveza que he tenido, independientemente de este viaje. Esto es todo lo que quieres de una quesabirria: un delicioso consomé, tortillas bañadas, carne jugosa y sabrosa, cebollas frescas y cilantro, y queso derretido. Muy buen precio también. Nuestro camarero hizo un gran trabajo y fue muy agradable. El restaurante era decente por dentro, nada loco, pero todo estaba limpio, el tipo de lugar en el que entras y sabes que la comida va a ser de gas. 9,5/10

    Excellent coffee and breakfast spot! We had exceptional customer service, quick and friendly! Also, the best salsa around!

    Asada tacos with a side order of rice and substitute charro beans for refried.

    Good flavorful authentic Mexican food. Clean tables and amazing staff. Mexican music playing as they cook our food. Recommend the birria tacos and asada tacos. Salsa is delicious and not too spicy.

    Quesabirria? More like be my BOOTHANG! Oh, the dreams of this place will be in my heart for the rest of my life. I've had quesabirria and choriqueso at many places, but Pajar has it done right. So delicious, so flavorful, so in love with this spot. Las Cruces- you have a gem in your city!!! Not only was the food amazing, the service was incredible, warm hospitality and a quaint location that makes you smile.

    We decided to try the recently opened Pajar Mexican Kitchen for lunch today. The interior has been updated from the previous restaurant owner. My wife had a shredded chicken quesadilla and I had the smothered (green) carne asada burrito plate (with rice and beans). Both of our meals were delicious. Service was fine. We will return.

    Good was great, a smaller restaurant in the middle of a plaza, very inexpensive and good service

    Food truck near house. Great, authentic food and service. Serves mixture of meat, and for being a restaurant as well as a food truck, the food is very presentable and yummy. We look forward to visiting the restaurant soon.

    Birria Raman is so good. My wife got the chili cheese fries and said she liked them a lot.

    Birria burrito

    The food is mediocre. If you're looking for spicy it isn't here. I ordered the hot green sauce and was very mild. The birria tasted good but was simply stewed pot roast in sauce.

    Lacks flavor, oily, and filled with salt. Not what I was expecting ... expect your sodium levels to skyrocket soon after consuming. Food was not Fresh.

    The quesabirria and chilaquiles are perfect. Christmas is the move for the chilaquiles, but I will dream of the red chile salsa forever.

You can also order loaves of bread to go, and I absolutely recommend getting the Green Chile Cheddar loaf - amazing! Based on reviews, I ordered the breakfast enchiladas with brisket. That brisket was tender and flavored perfectly. I also stole a bite off my bestie's plate of steak fingers - mind blowingly delicious. In fact The Shed was so good, we went back for a repeat meal the next day. I ordered a slice of quiche and could barely make a dent in the quiche - look at the size of that! The quiche was also pure perfection. The Shed does excellent food, and so they are usually very busy. Despite the amount of patrons, the servers are excellent and quick to get you in and out, while having an incredible food experience. So good, I wonder if they would do delivery to Denver...

I got the option of getting half breakfast potatoes and half beans. I used some of the red chile over the beans and potatoes, and oh my! It was the best red chile I had the whole trip. The queso was a true queso with real cheese and green chile, not the stuff that comes out of a can with canned jalapeños. To top it all off, you get a choice of their home-baked bread. Green Chile Cheddar, please. We each took a loaf home with us and put it in the freezer to travel back with us on the road. My repeat visit was the same meal because it was that good. We sat outside on the patio the second time, and despite the heat, the fans and the covered patio made it very pleasant.

Ours was the younger lady, who was not really engaged with the clientele except with some guy eating at the counter. When she delivered our food, she never offered to refill my friend's iced tea or my coffee. For almost 5 minutes I tried to get her attention without success. I got up to the counter where she continued chatting with the guy eating at the counter. I mentioned that I wanted more coffee, I was told that they had ran out and if I wanted decaf. She shook the thermos and she said that she still had some coffee left. I also told her that on the menu my meal included a tortilla. She never apologized for the lousy service. Very disappointing.

    Ummmm delicious! ( I am still sitting at the table)…read more I am from Las Cruces and now live out of town. Since Mesilla Valley Kitchen closed there has been a void in my life. When I visit I keep looking for a new great breakfast spot with a nice relaxed feel, great service, good food and, of course, a killer green chile sauce! Today I tried Weck's for the first time. I am now whole again. As soon as we walked in we were greeted by friendly staff and seated in the bright and inviting dining room. Our waiter, Cam, was super friendly and helpful. I ordered a breakfast burrito with the green chile sauce on top and my daughter had French toast with eggs and sausage. As I looked around at other patrons around me the food looked and smelled wonderful. Everyone went silent as soon as their food arrived, happily devouring their meals. When our food arrived we had the same experience! I took a little taste and couldn't stop (which is why my photo is of a half eaten burrito! ). Needless to say I will be back and telling everyone in town to give it a try (if they have not already)

Our server was Nayeli who took care of us with grace refilling our coffee cups and glasses of water on a timely manner. I ordered the short stack of pancakes and coffee. The order came with two large pancakes, delicious but I wasn't able to finish them. Nayeli offered me if I wanted more syrup, I accepted and she brought me another little cup. In the past dining the servers brought us the check but never cleared one single dirty dishes. This is because they have a busser who cleans the table after the guests leave. Nayeli is the best, she cleared the table!
