Usually a line especially on the weekends but it moves at a decent pace. While waiting they have menus available. You order at cashier then sit at your table. Waiter will bring drinks and food. You can add on to order while you eat. When finished they pay. You can order from the bakery on the way out. If they are busy it’s easier to go out of the side door instead of front door.
There are gluten free options available. If you have multiple food allergies you can order from sides where there are many options. There are a lot of drink options as well.
The gluten-free options were tasty and greatly appreciated. The staff is inviting and gracious. The building is cozy and warm. We will definitely be back when we're in Ruidoso again!
My daughter has celiac disease so naturally we had a few questions about the menu. As the server was answering our questions Chef Keith overheard us all talking. He came to our table and was invested in making sure we chose the right things on the menu to make sure our daughter was safe. Keith was so understanding and went out of his way to help give our daughter options. We appreciate his time and thoughtfulness! Thank you again. We all enjoyed our meals and drinks!
I got French onion soup, filet with grilled shrimp, mashed potatoes with asparagus and chocolate cake for dessert. The dinner was delicious! Steak cooked perfectly though no flavor of seasoning, the meat itself was cooked so great it was still delicious. Would’ve like a touch of flavor but I enjoyed it immensely. Everything else was also delicious. Accept the chocolate cake. I’m very sorry but that was completely dry and just terrible, otherwise it would’ve been five stars. I was told everything was made in house so I’m not sure how a kitchen that good for dinner is that bad for dessert, unless it was gluten free, which might explain it, in that case I was not told that and I apologize . But I would definitely go back, I just hope they work on their dessert❤️ What can I say I’m a sweets girl and appreciate finishing a fantastic meal with a perfect dessert, complete package. Thanks for a delicious meal. Oh yeah and it was to go and it was just as delicious at home! Totally recommend for dinner.
We had a party of 10 on a Monday. They were accommodating to our party as we had a wheelchair need to be able to access. We parked in the top parking lot and they were able to access our table very well. Our servers name was Jay, he was truly a great server! He remembered all the things! I spoke to the kitchen manager about good options for gluten free. Decided on the chargrilled chicken with rice. Everyone enjoyed their food and dessert. The deer came really close to the outdoor waiting area and that was neat to see
EVERYTHING is homemade. Even the poptarts! They have a creative menu and the hot honey lemonade is phenomenal. Some things you just don't know you need to try until you see an intriguing irem like the gold leaf tumeric latte. There was an excellent Chipotle ketchup to go with my homemade hashbrown. And the Joy's coffee was THE BEST take on an Almond Joy latte. WOW. If you're in Ruidoso, check it out! The guy there was so nice too. Friendly and pretty quick for how busy they were. Lots of dairy free and gluten free options for those with alergies.
Passing through the city and wanted to try some local options. When I asked if the food was gluten free I was thankful for the knowledgeable answer from the Chef (owner?). I ordered a drink and my other half had the protein option. He enjoyed his dinner! The atmosphere in that shopping center was so much fun and small town vibe.
So glad we found this restaurant. Excellent beef and lots of other choices on the extensive menu. They have some gluten-free bread options and our waitress consulted with a manager to confirm which dressings on the salad wagon were gf, and he personally came to our table.
We were hungry and tired and just saw this restaurant and pulled in. I'm so glad we did! It was absolutely delicious.
We explained to the waitress that our son had Celiac's disease. The chef made him a beef patty with cheese and hand cut french fries. That's amazing that he took the time to make a meal dietary friendly for my child to eat. We truly appreciate that.
Everything else was delicious as well. We will definitely visit again!
