Stopped here for lunch on our Route 66 road trip. My taco salad was the best I had on the whole trip! And of course the whole place has this fun retro vibe. Clean place and friendly service. Good stop if you're in the mood for Tex-Mex in Tucumcari.
Amazing place authentic Mexican restaurant. With absolutely beautiful art work. This place is a hidden gem. Service was amazing and the Tamales we're to die for. Highly recommend.
The food was amazing. Though very busy our drinks were never empty. My husbands shrimp fajita not only looked great but tasted great. My plate was amazing. All the ingredients were fresh. The portions and pricing were perfect. If I lived close by I’d be here all the time.
Probably the best stop in town, a delicious staple. Portions are larger than you'd expect for the price, staff is very amicable.
Delicious food, great service! Highly recommend.
My husband and I like to consider ourselves amateur food critics. Having never taken any official classes or the like, we base our opinions on service, flavor, atmosphere and the general appearance of the restaurant. So with that being said, tonight we dined at what appeared to be a hole in the wall restaurant in Tucumcari, New Mexico. La Cita is a Mexican food restaurant and from outer appearance, one might think it's the typical restaurant. Nothing could be further from the truth!
The food was fantastic! Jenna, our waitress,was very nice and knew her products very well. She made some suggestions and we were not disappointed at all!
Highly recommend you check this place out. Spectacular people and food!
I was a bit worried about this place from other reviews but pickings are slim in this little town. It was La Cita or fast food and being on the roax we were sick of fast food. The place is very worn inside but appeared to be clean and I care way more about that than new. Chips and salsa were good. I had green chili chicken enchilada and my husband had nachos. Both were good. We have had better but we have had much much worse. The place was prety busy, many of the people from the same hotel we were in. One server had her hands full, but boy was she doing a good job. The only reason I did not do 5 stars is because my food could have been in the oven a bit longer and I found 3 small bones in my chicken. Overall we would eat there again.
Great place. Old school route 66 frontage. Great food super friendly staff. Had to wait a bit to get our check.
