Looking for a good hot breakfast? Found it! Best huevos rancheros ever! Best green chili salsa! Amazing handmade tortillas, especially the corn tortillas! Hand squeezed orange juice! Great coffee! I knew that I had the right place when I pulled in and the parking lot was full. Friendly waitress and a wonderful atmosphere with the nice people and beautiful decorations. Oh my goodness! I can't say enough nice about this place. Mark it down on your saved places. You'll want to come back her for real authentic New Mexican cuisine. Get a quart of the salsa to go. You won't be sorry. The price is better than the local supermarket. Breakfast was cooked to perfection! I just had to write this all down before I head home. This place puts Grant on the map! And CLEAN! The restroom, the floors, the parking lot! Not too many places like this to be found. I thank God I found it. Thank you El Cafecito!

Very reasonable prices. Nice atmosphere. No chips and salsa which was unusual. Food came out fast once we ordered. Had the taco plate, tacos were decent as were the beans. I was not a fan of the rice, it was soupy and tomato sauce based, tasted like spaghetti-o's to me; my husband liked it though. He had the chimi plate w/green chile and said it was quite good. I tasted the sauce and it had a good kick to it. We also got a cheese enchilada and cheese crisp to sample. The red enchilada was fine but the sauce lacked some flavor and depth. The cheese crisp was tasty but unexpected, it was like a cross between a cheese crisp and a sopapilla or fry bread. Left full with some leftovers and a bill of only $24 including tax, before tip.

Desk clerk referred us as the best place to eat in Grant's. They advertise themselves as authentic New Mexico cuisine. If you order the chili (green or red) also order something to put out the fire in your mouth.

The food was extremely good, filling, and well priced. The sopapillas were delicious, but the rice had a ton of tomato sauce in it. Kinda threw me off and I wasn’t a fan of it, it almost felt like it was some kind of pasta and definitely didn’t resemble Mexican rice.

Sat down and waited for about 10mins to get drink order. Then about 7mins to get food ordered. But to be fair at the time it was sorta busy. A lot of locals go here. If they know you and your usual it'll come out faster from what I witnessed. A good selection of Mexican food. Sweet tea was one of the best I've had. I added the menu if you are ordering take-out. Call a head and there is a drive-thur for pickup I think.

The green chili sauce..what little is applied...is very good. If it wasn't for the sauce it would be very bland. Chicken had no seasoning. Burrito was simply Chicken wrapped in a flour tortilla.

Bomb! We stayed at a local Airbnb and wanted to get out last bit of Mexican food before heading further east and they did not disappoint. Their Chilie Relleno was absolutely amazing, everything was great! We had cheese enchiladas, shredded beef taco, ground beef taco, shredded beef chimichanga, green chilie cheese fries and a shredded beef fluata. None of those items disappointed. The beans were a tab bland but honestly with everything else being SO AMAZING it was ok. Thank you guys! And the gal at the window was also on point!!
