Chama Grill

So thankful this place was open! We spent two nights in Chama and were surprised to find that all the restaurants (except this one and Subway) were closed by the middle of the afternoon! On a weekend! The train is obviously this town's lifeblood and to be closing restaurants before the train and the return bus arrive back in town is beyond comprehension. So, after cruising the entire town, we settled on the Chama Grill. The dining room was closed, but the drive-thru was open. The wait to order was somewhat long, but when you're hungry and nothing else is open, you'll wait : Thankfully, the food was actually quite delicious and ready by the time we got to the window. We had ordered a green chili burger and the fish and chips meal and both were tasty. The young man at the window was very nice. We pulled into a parking spot in the parking lot and ate while the food was hot.We had only one negative experience, but decided not to take away a star since I know how hard it is to find good help. Only commenting here so the owner can speak with the staff about how inappropriate this was. As I was eating, I watched in my side mirror as one of the employees (who was sitting in his van), got out and relieved himself in the corner by the restaurant. He later walked across the parking lot and I saw he was wearing a Chama Grill shirt, which identified him as an employee. I saw the employees occasionally letting people into the locked restaurant (presumably to use the facilities), so I'm sure they would have let an employee in when he needed to use the restroom.

Ordered cod fish sandwich, friito pee, vanilla milk shake and amazed by the quality and fresh of the food! we will often be flyer as we stay here. fish was soou fresh, frito pie was tasteful and vanilla shake tasted like cake! the customer service was super nice and didn't have to wait for my lunch, but it would be worth if we had it too!

Chama grill serves one of the best green chile cheeseburger (with speck in new mexico, bar none. the service is great and it is fast, they always get their order right, and their riders are always well seasoned and hot served. if they are exceptionally hungry, ask for the “double” deluxe green chile cheeseburger; they will thank me later. if they are in chama after normal business hours, chama grill can eat one of the last (and best) places in the city, and they are open all year. I make it a point to stop and at midday here when I am in chama. make them please and stop them from chama grill the next time in the city. they will not be disappointed.

Was a good service, served me 10 minutes after closing time. great pommes and burger! would definitely recommend to anyone who goes to chama.

Great hamburger. that is quite long, but it is worth it for the hamburgers. will be coming back in any case?
