    Place was super tight and super busy. We came at probably the very worst time. Several of my colleagues said it was great food and it was worth the wait!! Service was friendly and they repeatedly assured us something would come open soon while they busily walked by. Went several other times and generally the service had declined - once it was so bad I walked out. Just went this morning and Ashley was our server and I was actually the first person in the place at 7:09 when it was supposed to open at 7:00. They opened the door for me. The experience was amazing, it's all about timing on going there and getting a good server. Ashley was wonderful at least one of the other ladies was nowhere near as good. I'll probably be back again but it definitely won't be at a time when they're busy. If I rated for today it would be generally five star across the board but it is very inconsistent there. I got to the buffet twice before someone else came in about 7:19. Somewhat of a slow start this morning. Buffet is definitely the way to go.....

    The food was really good here! I got the combination plate with a cheese enchilada, carne asada gordita, and chicken chalupas. The flavors of everything was awesome. The chips were freshly made and the salsa had a little bite but was so good especially with the meal I got. Check out this place if you are in the area!

    Very very good food, need to up the table service tho, it was very quiet when we ate there but the waitress would disappear and when it was time to leave we had to ask for our ticket. The food tho was really good. I would go here and eat again for sure.

    Great food, great environment, and great service. The food was excellent, and I would definitely come here again. If you’re driving through Artesia, New Mexico, this is definitely a place you’ll want to stop and eat!

    Excellent service, really on point and very friendly. Salsa super spicy for my poor Canadian little tongue, but tasty enough to finish it anyway! Portions were huge with plenty of sides. Chicken strips handmade from whole chicken pieces, and crispy.

    Food was great! Super friendly staff. Our family was displaced from the Ruidoso fires, and Alma’s offered to give us a free meal. I highly recommend giving this place a try, and support the amazing and friendly staff.
