Stopped here after a long day at White Sands. The custard was so refreshing and creamy, just what I needed. Lots of outdoor tables to sit and relax. A nice little find.

Been coming here for years. The strawberry rhubarb pie is my go-to. Crust is always flaky, filling has that nice tart kick. Never disappoints.

Been coming here for breakfast a few times now. What keeps me coming back is how fresh everything tastes. The avocado on the toast is always perfectly ripe, and you can tell the eggs are really high quality. It just feels like a wholesome start to the day.

The live music was a nice touch, but honestly, I&#39;m here for the food. It was just background noise for me while I focused on the plate. The place does get packed, so showing up early is pretty much required if you want a table without a long wait.

Stopped by for the green chili burger. The meat was tasty with a good kick. The onion rings were fluffy, and the warm chocolate cake with ice cream was rich. The space felt a bit tight, but it&#39;s a solid spot.

Been coming here for years, and the made-to-order eggs are always spot on. That&#39;s why I keep coming back. The French toast is solid too. The weekend buffet is nice when you&#39;re really hungry.

Been coming here for years. The salsas are always fresh and just the right amount of heat. That&#39;s why I keep coming back.

The green chile crema with the chips was a standout. Really complemented my margarita perfectly. The chile rellenos were great, too.

Shayla&#39;s been the bartender here for years. She remembers my usual order, and her drinks are always consistent. That&#39;s why I keep coming back.

Got here right at opening to beat the rush. The seats are surprisingly comfortable, which is nice when you&#39;re settling in for a meal. My favorite was the classic beef pho&mdash;broth was just right. They do run out of some items later, so an early visit is the way to go.

The portions are huge and the price is totally fair. My friend and I split a sandwich and still had leftovers! Way better deal than those chain spots.

Love that the fries aren&#39;t a mountain! The burger buns are toasted just right, which honestly makes sharing a couple with friends feel way more doable. No one leaves stuffed or hungry.

Perfect for a quick bite. Got the go-go boot sandwich and western potatoes. Food came out fast, which is what I needed. Sandwich was tasty, coffee hit the spot. Cozy spot for a fast breakfast.

The banana pudding was the best part. Creamy texture, not too sweet, and the vanilla wafers still had a bit of crunch. That&#39;s the only thing I&#39;ll remember from the meal.

Solid carne asada and beef tacos for takeout. Fresh and full of flavor. They were out of tamales but let me reserve for the next day.

The brisket nachos are huge, definitely shareable. Has that home-cooked taste I like. Staff was friendly and checked on us a couple times. Solid spot for a casual bite.

Been coming here for years, always get the Garbage Barge. The Canadian bacon is solid, and they don&#39;t skimp on the toppings. Cheese and sauce are just right. It&#39;s my go-to pie in the neighborhood.
