Affectionately called The Old Place by the Graveyard, this fourth‑generation landmark has served border classics since 1927. Expect red and green enchiladas, chile colorado, and a sense of place that keeps locals returning. Noted by food writers and highlighted by local tourism sources, it remains a rite of passage for visitors and residents alike.
