They seem to have multiple listing here, So to make it short, I was unhappy with bitter coffee, non dairy dry creamer in little packets, almost toast and very greasy eggs. I won't be back.

We stopped on our way to Amarillo. Looked on Google for best burgers in Santa Rosa. Really great cheeseburgers. Homemade patties cooked on the grill top. Fresh cut fries. Definitely worth the stop.

I ordered the redfish and my husband enjoyed a chicken chimichanga with green Chile sauce. Both were tasty. The wine is very basic, but the service was good. Very busy on Sunday nights. They need more help and are looking for it.

Reviewed By Clovis1428

Had lunch here today while traveling home from a family get together across the state.The food was a little slow in arriving but it was very good when we got it. It was obvious that the delay was because it was prepared after order rather than grabbing something from the cooler and then a quick warmup in the microwave. I had the chicken fried steak and it was real beef that was hand breaded rather than a frozen pre processed number. The gravy was generous and perfect texture. I was a little surprised and very satisfied overall and would hesitate to stop again when I’m in the area.

Silver Moon Cafe

Reviewed By Michael D

Historic landmark since 1959. Located on old route 66 in Santa Rosa, NM. (exit 277 off I-40) Worth the stop.Surprisingly good authentic New Mexico Style Mexican food with just a hint of Native American flavor.Offering a large menu to choose from, both Mexican and American style meals. The service was good considering they were very busy. I enjoyed the combo meal plate, with tamale, taco, enchilada, beans and pizole. The portions were generous and great flavor.There is also an interesting gift shop located in the same building.

It was so good that we ate here both coming and going. Our waitress was wonderful too. Everything that all four of us had was superb. Wish we had a place like this at home. If you like the New Mexican Cuisine, it doesn't get much better than it is here.
