    This is the sign

    Very good food. Me and the bros had some fun eating. Sign said children left here with be sold as slaves, so that's a perk if you have a child you don't like. Overall food was yummy. Good experience before we shred on the mountain. Over all it was ridonculously good!

    Breakfast Sandwich with hash browns

    Fantastic breakfast spot before skiing! The service was super quick and they were very nice. Everything on the menu looked good and wasn't overwhelming. My favorite was the sandwich and tej hash browns

    Breakfast on a Bun with Sausage and side of Hash Browns
    Taste B.

    Shotgun Willies Cafe is located on the main strip in Red River, NM and is in walking distance to the Lift House. Don't blink, otherwise you may miss the tiny building position to hold up an entire corner. The service is friendly. You walk up to the counter to place your order and return a few minutes later to pick up your food. The decor is an array of pictures, quotes and jokes on the wall. The menu is simple and there is a direct view into the kitchen, where the Cook seems to use one skillet top grill for all items. This brings true life to the term greasy spoon. HaHa! The food is pretty good though. Food Review: Breakfast Sandwich on a Bun - large sausage patty on top of an egg with cheese folded inside of it, resting on a buttery lightly toasted bun was delicious. It was one of my best breakfast items on this trip. Hash Browns - average cooked and tasting. They were just ok. They were crispy and fully cooked though.

    Great food, fast service, great staff, would for sure recommend this place if you are in Red River

    Chopped Barbecue Sandwich with tater tots

    Mostly outside seating, nice and friendly service. The chopped barbecue sandwich & tots were delicious. We will be back next time we are in town.

    We ordered fried catfish plate, loaded baked potato with brisket and a Bean bowl and were all pretty good.

    Vibes immaculate! Food even better! Other reviews didn't…read moremention how awesome it is for kids as well with a great area to play outside. Food came out quickly, and was absolutely delicious. Not even a question this was the best meal we had in Red River. Couldn't recommend this place more highly.

    This is hands down the best restaurant in Red River! My group and I tried pretty much every…read morerestaurant located in Downtown Red River (albeit not that many in the area). Service: The restaurant was struggling a bit with a busy evening, but they did not miss a beat when it came to service! They informed our group of 8 that things were going to take a bit longer, which was fine by us! They came by to check in on the group to make sure our drinks were flowing! I appreciated that the owners took the time to introduce themselves to every table, and even helped out bussing and delivering dishes when their servers were busy! The owners were so friendly and very passionate about the restaurant. You can tell by the quality of the dishes here. Food: The food was absolutely spectacular! I did not expect much coming here, but my mind was blown away! Each and every person in our group raved about the dish they ordered so I don't think you can go wrong with any of the dishes on the menu! For starters, we ordered the Brussels sprouts, and meatballs to share. For those in the group that were veggies-adverse, the Brussels sprouts were still a hit! The meatballs were so juicy, and flavorful. I'd order both dishes again. I ordered the smoked chicken quarter. The chicken was so tender and seasoned impeccably. The sweet potato puree was the star for me. My husband kept stealing some of the sweet potato puree from my plate! It was so good! I stole some of my husband's order of the meatloaf. It tasted so good...you cannot go wrong with that one either! Some of our group even went back here the next day to try their brunch menu!
