Stop & Eat Drive-In

Local off the highway pit stop which did not disappoint!! We stopped by on the way and there was a line of people waiting for their food. The menu is simple with tons of options and the staff is super friendly. I got the stuffed enchilada topped with green Chile and it was devoured in 30 secs. Highly recommend this pit stop if you are ever passing by!

It was terrible... The MED drink was the size of a child size from McDonald's. The frito pie was in a very small expensive plastic container and the red chili was liquid (tasty) yet more like red chile broth?! My friend's BBQ sandwich was very sad and he said it tasted like packaged premade BBQ beef that was microwaved and placed on a cold bun. This too was an inadequate size. The fries were small bag. And my friend was asked if he wanted a large. He was disappointed. I wish I had photos. Will go back to get some.

This place is a pretty good reflection of Northern NM food. The green/ red chile has a great bite that can compete with any restaurant in New Mexico. It is a really cool place to eat for a quick bite or even going in. It looks outdated but has a charm to it. It is a more of a "eat in your car" sonic kind of place...The food they offer are tamales, burritos, posole, and different plates.I had a frito pie and you can have it any way you like..fritos, cheese, red chile, lettuce, and tomato (no onions for me).

Looking for locally owned drive-in? This is the spot to "Stop". Great variety to the menu with reasonable prices. Had the recommended deep fried burrito and it was great.

What a terrific find thanks to Trip Advisor!!! The reviews were all so positive so we had to check it out. Gerald and the crew were so nice and welcoming!!! The menu is eclectic... Burgers and a good mix of New Mexican items from which to choose. The owner's daughter said they opened in '67... And it still has all the charm from back in the day!!! We enjoyed the burgers, "double crisp" fries and rolled tacos (taquitos). Everything was delicious and reasonably priced. We plan to stop in again the next time we pass through for the great food and even better hospitality!!!Mangia!H & M

I will start with one caveat: I am biased about Stop & Eat since I grew up in the area and this has always been my favorite burger joint. Keep that in mind if I start gushing too much.The location itself looks like something out of a 50's era snapshot. The indoor seating is sparse and consists of two counters and a handful of bolted down bar stools. The vast majority of patrons dine in their cars under corrugated steel canopies. There are no intercoms to order from and no carhops to serve you. You place your order either inside or from the "walk up window" and you pick it up when your number is called from a loudspeaker.The food selection is a combination of burger-joint and taco-stand fare with lots of fresh, New Mexican chile. The signature burger, the Jumbo Twin, is arguably the best burger I have ever had in NM or anywhere else. However, it's the rolled tacos, or taquitos, that I am addicted to. The filling is a unique, molten mess of beefy, cheesy goodness that I find myself craving way more often than is healthy. Now that I think about it, I don't believe I've ever had anything else from the menu, so I can't comment about other items.

Just stopped here on the way up to Ghost Ranch from Santa Fe. The burgers were amazing and the best part was the staff. They were so friendly and welcoming. It was my first real drive-in experience as well! Definitely recommend eating here.

This place is classic . One of the city's most loved drive-ins. This place doesn't need any introduction. . Great food and good service.Don't forget to try their rolled tacos. All they need to bring back r their homemade doughnuts

Talk about some really good food! Their posole with red chili is so good! I wish they stayed open past two. If they did I would be grabbing dinner from them all the time.

Awesome family owned business in Northern NM. Frito pie and burgers are great. Add NM hatch green chili's to everything!!!
