As a tip to all non-native New Mexicans, when they sit down a bowl of pinto beans with green chilies on top, it's chilli -- you eat it with a spoon, not like chips and queso. Overall the food was pretty good -- some of the best fried pickles I ever had, and the horseradish ranch has delicious. Great ambience. Fun time.

Great options of sweet and spicy, including shakes with peppers. Great service and huge portions. Best fried pickles I've ever had and the starter of chilis and beans were delicious.

Built in 1986, with an interior evoking the 1950s, and an exterior evoking 1920s "California Crazy" roadside architecture... in a 21st century southwestern palette... with neon. It may be an earth-toned echo of authenticity, but Route 66 travelers don't seem to care.
