Del's Restaurant

This is , indeed, an iconic feature on Route 66 with all the uniqueness that goes with that. There are various areas for seating that can give you a different experience depending on the location but overall is is a comfortable and warm atmosphere. Having the salad bar as a side was a great alternative. The bar had a good variety to offer. I did not give 5 stars because although my wife ordered the Swiss and mushroom burger, it was delivered to the table without mushrooms. To her credit, the server noticed this and took it back to the kitchen only to return with the news that they were out of mushrooms. Though they didn’t charge us for the mushrooms, the kitchen should have notified the server as soon as they realized they were out but instead sent it out hoping we would be oblivious. Overall, we enjoyed ourselves and would return.

This was THE happening spot anywhere around. Our trio fajita was delicious, but our brisket burrito was enormous so ¾ of it had to come home with us for dinner the next night. The complementary chips and salsa were as freshly made as the rest of the meal. The topper was the chocolate eruption cake!! One piece is enough to share (even though you won't want to) Excellent meal - highly recommend stopping.

Referred here by our hotel desk clerks. Excellent service from Amanda. We ordered a brisket burrito, and a trio fajita. The chips and salsa we enjoyed while waiting were homemade, fresh and very tasty. The chips actually handled the salsa effortlessly. (Thin chips are one of our pet peeves) The burrito was enormous! We had to take ¾ of it back to our room since we finished every drop of the fajita. The two complementary sopapillas were a real treat with the honey. We ordered a delectable looking piece of Chocolate Eruption cake to go with the leftovers. We were pleasantly surprised by the authentic food, prepared fresh, and bursting with flavor. We've been on a 60 day road trip across the US, and back, and this is one of the best meals we've had to date. Thank you for bringing sunshine to our evening of rain, wind and unseasonal snow. ***UPDATE *** ... Ate the chocolate eruption cake tonight ... Setting our goals at going back in the morning, before we leave town, for two more!! If you're a chocolate lover, you MUST order a piece! It's decadent and worth every penny ... and calorie!

Very old school western Cafe feel. They offer a variety of foods. The food quality could have been better. My husband ordered a steak and ended up with lots of fat. I ordered the French dip, which came with sliced roast beef on French bread. It was very dry. I was expecting a bit more effort, but it didn't taste bad. I was also disappointed when I ordered fried ice cream off of the table menu and they didn't have any.

This restaurant is a hidden gem in Tucumcari, NM. The food is excellent and the wait staff is friendly, helpful and efficient. My wife and I both had their fajitas and they were top notch!! We also had their lemon meringue for dessert!! A very memorable meal!!! They also have a great selection of beers and other adult beverages.
