The Oasis Belen

American breakfast food was average. New Mexican food was fantastic! Service was average, the server seemed overwhelmed. Not a busy place, but it seemed like one server for the whole floor, which was expansive. They seemed to be preparing for a very large party to come in. Spoke to the owner, Izzy, who seems very involved and passionate about his business. He says they use this place for large parties and a weekly rotary club meeting. He also says they use the parking lot for food trucks and pop-up restaurants. How cool!

Went with a group of friends. I ordered the cheeseburger medium rare. The fries were ok. The burger came out on a cold roll (think Walmart brand) with an extremely thin piece of tomato, a piece of limp, wilted lettuce . The hamburger was more than well done and was dry and tasteless. I had to ask for mayo to help it go down. No condiments brought to the table unless you asked and then it took forever. The bills were screwed up so the waitress said just go to the cash registered. I was charged for things I did not order and the cashier wanted to argue about it since she had several slips that the waitress couldn't figure out who ordered what. When I questioned my bill she cold not figure out how to reverse the charge on my credit card. Eventually, she gave me a couple dollars in cash (I was owed more but I was done with this) My husband had lunch with a friend at the same time and they both ordered a simple breakfast. I believe I saw that it was about $9 on the menu for each. They got charged for three meals and the bill still came to $35! They were done with that too. Not going back.
