Restaurant Review: Santa Fe Grille, Santa Rosa, New Mexico

OMG, I don't think it could get much worse. On a trip east from Tucson to NC (see other reviews), we spent a night in Santa Rosa, NM. While not a large town, it had a nice Hampton Inn and they referred us to the Santa Fe Grille.

We drove up to a restaurant that had bright lights and a diner feel. We still decided to try it. Mistake #1.

My husband ordered tacos and I ordered a fish fillet. Both Mistake #2.

We each had one beer and were informed by a card on the table that there was a two drink maximum. We didn't want more, but just the chastising of "don't even think about having more than two drinks" made us feel unwanted and uncomfortable.

This place serves the unlucky tourists who roll through town to stay in one of the many hotels they have. Unfortunately it's not a good choice and as we go back through we've decided to spend the night in nearby Amarillo, TX with more options and drive right on by Santa Rosa.

I suggest you do the same.
