    I'm sure you aren't coming here because you're a vegetarian, but if you do the fries are fried in beef fat. The fried onion thing is awesome though.

    Pretty mediocre for all the hype/price. Can get the exact same cheese fries at wieners circle and pay less for more. Hatch green chile is not very authentic when compared to what you'd get in N.Mex.

    Be careful when ordering to go, the Bartenders sometimes don't keep track of the orders. Ending up waiting 25 minutes extra when our food was ready just sitting behind the bar.
