What customers say about us

Tammy Norris

Wonderful "home cookin'"! We especially loved the jalapeño corn bread and the greens! Everything was definitely made with love. The staff was very friendly and attentive. I only wish we had left room for some of her homemade pies! I highly recommend....

Lawrence Pearl

On our way back home to Albuquerque from the Deming area, we were looking for someplace different orher than the usual stuff we eat and we came about Elisa's searching on Google. We were welcomed into the restaurant by the owner who was just the loveliest person! The hospitality was amazing and let me tell you the food was so delicious, and really felt like home cooked Southern food to me and my wife. Outstanding! We ordered some pieces of pie to try on the road home and can't wait! They look delicious! This is a must have if you're ever in this area!

Trina R

delicious food and friendly staff. popped in here on our way home from a visit with Grandkids foe a quick bite and it did not disappoint. The pies are a must!

Janis Scott

This was a fun stop on our way through! We really enjoyed chatting with Eliza, who runs the restaurant with her husband! Super-friendly and welcoming with a southern menu that included many things we just don’t get in Canada. Delicious food! She sent us off in the direction of town for the annual duck race & a couple of slices of southern pie! Such lovely small-town hospitality! So glad we happened upon this little cafe!

I wish I could give 10 stars. We walked in and were greeted warmly with a smile. The menu was extensive with entrees from all varieties: seafood, BBQ, traditional, comfort food and the cornbread! Oh my! It felt like home to me. I grew up on black eyed peas and collards and the like. Every single food item is made from scratch. There's no such thing as instant potatoes at this place. Wait staff is friendly and welcoming. We did not have to beg for refills on the coffee. The side dishes are not what you would find in a chain restaurant. Fried cabbage, collards, sweet potatoes, mac & cheese, rice, mixed veggies and more. Price point was great too. I paid $15.95 for a meatloaf (delish) entree with THREE sides. I selected the $20-$30 range because we had pie with our meals. It's a little (very little) off the beaten path, but well worth the detour. It was spotlessly clean including the restrooms. I can't say enough wonderful things about this place. Give it a try. Mexican restaurants are a dime a dozen in the southwest, but this place? It's definitely a rare gem!
