This is amazing good. We had the smoked pork chop served over apricots and greens with roasted potatoes. It was perfect! The chef is incredible, and we will return and tell all our friends in Abq. Oh, dont forget to try the housemate sausage topped off with Chalas spiked tea.

Went here for brunch for the first time and it was excellent! The French toast is an absolute must 2010. The Benedict was tasty but the cup was a little dry 810. If youre in Las Cruces this is a must go to spot for brunch. Amazing service and delicious food makes for a fabulous morning.

Absolutely incredible everytime weve been. Weve been for breakfast once and dinner several times. The Cuban is a favorite of mine. Expect a wait if youre going for breakfast on the weekend, but its worth it.

Fresh made home cooked food. Soooo delicious. We have been in town 24 hours and hit this spot twice. Planning on brunch before we hit the road to our next destination. Highly recommend! The staff is amazing as well.

The Green Chile Smoked Sausage Burritos was, literally, the single best sausage I have eaten in my 63 years. And that includes touring through Germany. They are madesmoked inhouse, and you can tell. Amazing. Why are you still reading this? Go! Now!

We enjoyed eating here and came back twice during our visit to Las Cruces. Everything that we ordered was amazing. The waitress let us order half of the French Toast and the half of the Benedict so that we could try more dishes. Prices are very reasonable and service was great. We cant wait to come back again.
