I had a 16oz prime rib that quite honestly wasn?t fit to eat. The baked sweet potato was ok, but not worth the cost. The appetizer was served after the meal. The best part of the whole experience was the green chili corn chowder. I would considereating here again, but only for that singular item. This is typical for New Mexico, but I definitely wouldn?t recommend anyoneto eat here.

Great service and good food. It was a busy Saturday evening. Hostess and waitress were both training new employees. Everything ran great considering the trainees were just following their trainer. Everyone was very friendly. After our meal a woman whom Iassumed was a manager came by our table to see if our meal was ok and to see if we needed anything else. She even stood thereand made conversation with the kiddos. That's what management is all about. Great customer service. I was very pleased.

Mediocre meals, my husband?s NY Strip and my prime rib were excellent in taste and cooked perfectly, but the rest of the meal was unimpressive. Baked potato and steak fries were cold, greens for salad was turning brown and bread was so thin that it wasall crust. Prices are fair if entire meal was good but sadly that was not the case. Probably will not return.

Salad bar was tasty. But the food we ordered came cold and felt they needed to change the oil for things that came fried in our appetizer platter . The wontons were so Delicious. My chicken burger was bland, hubby?s mash potato?s came out cold, kids foodwas quite delicious, one got chicken strips(the gravy for the strips tasted like flour) and the other child got a hamburger. Mysweet potato fries were actually good. Wouldn?t come back again but 3 stars from us as it didn?t impress us especially being ourfirst time there. Our waiter was pretty nice and attentive.

Took my kids out to dinner cause my wife was out of town?.heard it was the best in area?ordered the prime rib, burger salad bar and two kids chicken strip meals. Prime rib was cold and slimy, charged $15 dollars for kids strip meals and burger came to thetable without the patty. Disappointing for $130. Salad bar was decent.
