“ I was going to El Passo from Stockton, Texas and this cafe caught my eyes, fortunately. It was a great road-side stop for me. I was hungry and looking for some foods. Cornudas served the burger and onion rings to my liking and I must say they are true to their claim- Home of world's best burger. I just loved the burger and onion rings there. This cafe got some nice interior decorations with Texas stuff as well as a nice gift store attached to the cafe. I checked the store as well. Best of luck guys! ”
“ Been following this place on Facebook for a while, finally got a chance to stop in. This place is awesome! Fast and friendly service, prices are good, and the food is delish! I got the patty melt, my wife got the Cornudas burger. Both came with plenty of hand cut fries that were cooked perfectly. Highly recommended. ”
“ We recently stumbled upon this restaurant while driving along US-62 and decided to order chicken fingers from the kids' menu since we weren't very hungry and just wanted a light snack. To our surprise, the chicken fingers were exceptionally well-made, and the fries tasted incredibly authentic. It was clear that both were handmade from fresh, high-quality ingredients. We later found out about their famous burger and wished we had tried it. We'll definitely stop by again on our next trip and make sure to enjoy their burger then. ”
“ A must stop for a meal here. Breakfast was hot, fresh & delicious! The hamburgers and fries are the absolute best hands down. Will return soon to try the rest of the menu. Motel rooms are the perfectly comfortable & quiet good nights sleep. ”
“ What an amazing gem of a place ! Loved the food here, breakfast all day?! Sign me up! Their breakfast plates are so delicious, some of the best I've had ! Super reasonable prices, generous portions. We tried the blueberry pancakes with potatoes, biscuits with gravy, and sausage omelet with bell peppers, green chili, onions. Everything was absolutely good ! We got a brownie and their blueberry loaf to go, also yummy. Their interior and decor is awesome. Friendly staff. This place is so beautifully well kept for being in business for 95 years. Def recommend this to anyone passing by ! They also got cool events they host from time to time, like a chili cook-off contest with camping and festivities next weekend. ”
“ A charming, wild west cafe that's a thousand miles from nowhere. They serve up some food that is good enough to keep you going on your long journey through the west Texas desert. The whole place and the decor is just perfect - the only thing missing are some batwing doors on the front. The tables legs were cowboy boots, and the whole exterior was totally understated - we weren't sure that this was a real place from the highway. ”
“ This restaurant is pretty much out in the middle of nowhere. It's a hidden Jewel in the desert, take my advice don't pass this place up. Every time I have the opportunity I stop in and enjoy the food here its excellent ! The people are great and the atmosphere is wonderful. ”
“ It is not easy to express the experience of true America where ordinary people come to eat a home cooked meal and where the staff and locals don't treat you like a stranger. ”
