“ Good food, good friendly waiters, greeted nicely, checked on frequently. Food came out in timely manner! Ordered the molcahete dinner for two. Took part of it home because it was so large. ”
“ Got into town and asked for some recommendations to go for dinner. This was recommended by the hotel front desk, and holy smokes, he was right! The chips salsa and cabbage thing were good, the cabbage dish was unexpected, but had a great flavor. Nice with the chips. Dinner was tonight’s special, brirera tacos. Pardon my spelling if that’s incorrect, but they were super good! Stuffed with brisket, not filler. Three were the perfect size for a great meal. Chicken enchiladas was our other choice, and no surprise, fantastic flavor. Tender enough to cut with a fork, just enough cheese so it’s not overpowering the sauce and filling. Rice and beans were good as well. You can actually see the pidgin peas, rare it seems. Overall we were glad we ate here, definitely recommend it if you’re in town. ”
“ I am staying in Cortez for 2 nights for visiting Mesa-Verde NP. Went to the restaurant for dinner. After reading some negative reviews along with lot of positives, was skeptical on my choice. However, our dinner was immensely pleasant. Great ambience and service. Our server for the evening was really good. Food quantity and taste was great. We ordered two entrees for family if 4 with 2 kids and it was enough for us. Kids also enjoyed the food to the fullest. I highly recommend the restaurant. ”
