TEXAS to NEW MEXICO to CALIFORNIA to NEVADA!

How timely, Howard! Here we are, sitting in a motel in Santa Rosa, NM, and wondering where we should go for dinner. Debated between Silver Moon (our hotel is nearby), Joseph's, and the Dairy Queen (also nearby). When my husband quits snoozing, I'll read him your reviews.

We were just through Abq today. I tried to call a friend of ours, but missed him.

UPDATE: Try Santa Fe Grill in Santa Rosa. Our hotel recommended it, and even had a sample menu (without prices) to look at. The prices were reasonable, the food was good, and the service was impeccable. (Admittedly we were there at 5:00 and were about the only people in the place for the first 20 minutes.) My hubby had steak-shrimp-fries-vegie for $18, and I had the 1/2 Stuffed Sopapilla and chips. The chips were excellent, though the salsa thick and a bit more spicy than I'm used to. We had thought about going to DQ for dessert, but decided we were too full!

Also - I noticed that Seasons' in Albuquerque got left out of the ABQ list. The dinner floor may be pricey, but the bar serves food and at lower prices. Last year, we took our Albuquerque friend to dinner there - he had just lost his wife - we gave him the choice of where to go. He chose Seasons' (he knows everybody there). The green chili cheeseburger was so good - and I ended up taking 1/2 of it back to the hotel with me and had it for lunch the next day.
