Stopped here for lunch. The place I would normally eat at was not open. Ordered the beef enchilada plate. The food had no taste, like nothing was seasoned. Could not eat the rice and beans, no taste and no texture. The beef in the enchiladas was cooked with no sauce or seasoning. The red chili has no flavor or heat. Same with the salsa. I will not eat here again, nor can I recommend it. The local people seem to eat here, mainly older clientele.

We visited this restaurant while on vacation. Typical cafe style, nothing fancy but the dinner was decent. Pies, not so good. Salsa was probably store bought, not fresh made, but worked well with the entrées. Our waitress was helpful and friendly.

I stopped here on my way back from Denver to OKC. Usually lil hole in the wall restaurants such as this have the best food. WRONG!!!! Not this one, the place is filthy, the Guac had no taste and the Beef enchaladas was terrible. Fortunately, the manager did not make me bay for I only took 1 bite. Here I was in New Mexico at a Mexican Restaurant and it was the worst food ever.!!!!

I have been coming to this place since I was about 17. I have never had a better sopapilla or salsa. I am actually really surprised there are bad reviews on the salsa and that it is thought to be store bought, they make it in house. I agree the chips are nothing special but I drive down to Trinidad every few months and always come by here for the sopapillas and take a bunch of salsa back to Colorado Springs.
