Our waitress was very attentive, and the service stayed consistent the entire time. The food was chef's kiss. The rice was excellent, and the fajita platter my husband and I shared was flavorful and more than enough. The margaritas were on point too. We ordered the huge Cadillac margarita and it did not disappoint. This will definitely be our go-to spot every time we're in Willcox for the wine festival!

I was delighted with our patio seating. People watching always a treat. This is a gem, serving local families, tourists and wine festival attendees without batting an eye. Food allergies not a problem,.... Just let them know and they are happy to accommodate. Great experience. Thanks!

Loyd & Custie Mauzy opened the Cafe after they purchased The Rodeo Grocery on the 70's. Years later, Nancy & Bill (deceased) Cloudt purchased from my family and continue to run the Cafe located inside the grocery to this day. You can always expect great food, great conversation, and interaction with locals. Yes, the farms and ranches have, for the most part, left the area. The history still lives in this quaint little town just inside the border of New Mexico. Just ask. Folks will share many stories of the area from Geronimo to John McAfee. Located south of I-10 on State HWY 80. Visit the great Chiricahua Mountains as well. See the area meet the people.

The breakfast menu looks phenomenal and I couldn't wait to try the Huevos Rancheros. However, unfortunately on my visit, they were out of their enchilada sauce, so I went with the #5 pancake breakfast (large). It was near perfect. Two pancakes of solid portion, fluffy and thick; yet substantive and able to take the butter and table syrup perfectly. Bacon was perfectly cooked - crisp, not with a small bit of chew, and the ham sizable and nicely cooked. Eggs over medium - again perfectly cooked with toast crips and not dry. A few minor tweaks could move this from a place you stop by if you're in the area, to a place you come to the area to stop for. Table Syrup - Mrs. Butterworths? I'd suggest you consider finding a small purchase of 1.5oz single-serve jars of pure maple syrup. If I was offered that for an extra $4 for the quality of pancakes, I would do so immediately. Coffee -- Folgers is good; but you could easily buy a small coffee grinder, and some fresh beans. Put that through the coffee pot, and the experience could be elevated yet again. Anytime I am at Rusty's RV Ranch in the future, I will be returning here for breakfast again, and again.

No idea what it was but it was my fave. I ordered beef flauta plate that came with rice and beans. Then an order of chips and salsa to go! The salsa they gave me with the to go order was soooo big!

Instead of our intended stop for lunch in Deming we thought we'd stop here, located in the former Kranberrys location. It was very busy on a Thursday at 1 packed with lots of locals and a few of us transient travelers... good sign! Service was a bit slow but very friendly and it was clear they were maybe a bit short on floor staff so being patient was not a problem. Portions were hearty and the food was really great... particularly if you are a fan of the New Mexico style Mexican food and love Hatch green/red chiles. My husbanded LOVED his Huevos Rancheros (he is always super critical), the red salsa was gold standard and my Chilaquilas were prepared exactly how I love them. The place is clean, family owned and operated and we will definitely stop back in! Side note- some reviews complain about the tacos... it is an actual thing for ground beef tacos to be deep fried using a hamburger patty... can't recall what they are traditionally called but that will be my next order as I am a fan.

Because it's probably the best Mexican restaurant in Southern Arizona. And now, EVERYBODY knows it. I used to blame the Snowbirds, but it's obviously because of the "locals" now. Not many Canadians spend the summers with us, and the place is still crazy busy in July -but- If you can get in...do it! If I had the time to wait in line, I'd do it too. Enjoy!

My order- pictured shrimp tacos- were absolutely delicious and as you can see the presentation is top tier. We got their dessert special carrot cake to go and had it later that night. The carrot cake is beyond words crazy good. All around just a delightful experience! If you're within 80 miles of this place make the journey. I'm not kidding at all- best Mexican food I've ever had

The restaurant seems very understaffed, which led to long wait times throughout our experience. We sat at the bar in the middle of the restaurant, but there was no bartender. Drinks had to be made by a waitress, and she would leave again right after, so service felt very inconsistent. There was also no hostess, which added to the confusion when arriving. We noticed another guest across from us who also wasn't being attended to, and the waitress apologized to him as well, mentioning there was no bartender available to cover the bar area. We understand places can get busy during festival weekends, but better staffing or support would really improve the experience. Hoping to see improvements next time because we'd truly love to make this one of our go-to spots in Willcox.

This outdoor location boasts it all with a restored and unique 1957 Valentine diner of old Americana, an old 1950s style Airstream for a bar (really cool), Dots and Dashes Bar, pretty comfy picnic style seating, swamp coolers to keep you comfortable, wide-open space, an enormous tent to keep you protected from the Arizona sun and a stage for kids to perform and the occasional locals to serenade from. The diner sits at the heart of a classic American trailer court, with a few classic cars, some retro RVs, and even an historic boat. Dining outdoors beneath umbrellas or under a swamp cooler air-conditioned tent, where the retro music and ambient setting creates a dynamic 1950s mood. Their breakfasts are great - and unique.
