    Sausage & Cheese Omelet
    Katie A.

    We stopped in the Camaleon on our way from Phoenix to Albuquerque. It had decent reviews and sounded better than stopping at McDonalds. I had an omelette that was cooked pretty well and my boyfriend had beef tacos. Both were good! Our waitress was distracted and would forget to check on us but she was a nice girl. We could tell this is a family owned/run place. The waitresses seemed to know all the regulars by name and their orders. For Holbrook, this is a decent place to stop!

    How long it will take to walk here from the Tesla charging station next to Burger King.

    Charging your Tesla? Skip Burger King. This is a 1 minute and 59 second walk across a small side street. I'm a foodie who eats only once a day, so I pick my spots with fuss when options are limited. This is the best spot in town. Get their breakfast burrito with chorizo/hashbrowns and a side of beans and cheese. You'll be stuffed.

    Burnt rice and beans next to mediocre tacos.

    Ordered the taco plate. Beef looked weird with little color but okay. Tasted alright. Rice and beans were both burnt so I only ate one bite. Went to pay and told them I didn't eat the rice and beans. She says she'll just charge me for the tacos. $11.50 instead of $11.99, LOL. I said sure and ten minutes later when she figured out the system I hand her my card. She comes back and says since I didn't get the plate she has to charge me for the chips and salsa she brought to my table without me asking. Wow. Another 5 minutes of back and forth and I end up just paying for the whole plate ($16 with tax) just so I could leave. Definitely passing on this place next time!

    I appreciate that the food I had wasn't loaded with salt. I was able to grab a quick breakfast before heading out to the next stop on my road trip. A great little no-nonsense restaurant.

    Breakfast menu in late September.

    My wife and I enjoyed breakfast here while our car was charging across the street. We were the first to arrive on a Tuesday morning shortly after they opened at 7am. We were warmly greeted and offered our pick of any table. Their tables are spread fairly far apart for those concerned. Their menu includes both traditional and Mexican breakfasts. I went with scrambled eggs, bacon, sour dough toast and hash browns. You can substitute home fries instead of hash browns but our server said the latter were better. My wife ordered a breakfast burrito with chorizo and the recommended hash browns. Our food showed up quickly and was delicious. I literally ate everything on my plate. I especially liked their hash browns agreeing with the server. My wife couldn't quite quite finish her burrito because of how large it was. She said it was great though. We did get some homemade salsa in a bowl that added well to our meals. Service was excellent and friendly the entire time. There were three other tables occupied as we left. Perhaps folks sleep in a little bit in Holbrook.

    Open faced green chili burger (Delicious!)

    Delicious Food!! This place is awesome!! If you are ever in or near Holbrook, Az you have to try this place! Today my brother, son and I had a very delicious lunch here today. We did not know what to order being from out of town, but we saw what some people were eating at the neighboring table. It was two gentlemen wearing cowboy hats with their family and they seemed to be enjoying their meal immensely. We asked our waitress and she politely went over and asked them. They told her and then turned and mentioned to us, that the green chili open faced burger served with fries covered with green chili was the best they have ever had. So given their recommendation, we ordered three of them along with two sides of onion rings. Let me tell you the gentlemen were correct!!! These were the very best green chili open faced burgers we have ever had! They were delicious!!! The meat was perfectly cooked and served on top of two very fresh buns and covered with the most delicious green chili you could ever want! Perfectly spiced and very very delicious!!!! Please order what the two gentlemen advised us to order, the Open Faced Green Chili Burger!! It is the best and you will not be disappointed! This place is what America is all about! Super welcoming restaurant with wonderful people working there with an awesome friendly clientele. Go here and eat!!

    Chicken enchiladas

    Stopped in for lunch for a first time visit. Service was fast and friendly and the food was delicious. Judging from the full dining room this place appears to be very popular with the locals.

    Special: pork steak, green Chile, eggs and hash browns. Nom!

    See all

    Great place if you are looking for a quick meal at a reasonable price. Sure beats fast food joints.
