We visited today, and the burgers were delicious! We brought our large party of 14 into this cute little place. The 2 ladies working were great and handled our large order with grace and kindness- not to mention the service was still quick! We've always wanted to stop in when visiting, but we're always visiting in the off-season. Truly glad we finally got to stop! All the kids had ice cream or milkshakes, as well. No complaints from anyone!

For being out in the middle of nowhere the food is fantastic! Service was great and seems to be a family run establishment. Wife and I both had the bacon cheeseburger with green chilies and it was like a hit in the nostalgic feels, the bun, patty and bacon were perfectly crispy and came together for a perfect symphony of a burger. My great grandma used to make burgers that no one else could come close to until now. Too bad I was passing thru I'd stay just to eat here again!

The BLT hit the spot. Lots of crispy bacon! Purple coleslaw? It was excellent! The drive up featured amazing views! The drive alone was well worth the trip!

Absolutely love this place! The Purple Onion is a delightful little gem nestled in hills of the old mining town of Mogollon (population 12). Great green chile cheeseburgers!

Excellent food and great people!! A total gem! Their breakfast burrito was SO GOOD; packed with love and deliciousness!! My boyfriend got the Green Chile burger and it was eaten with full on adoration and delight ☺️What a sweet little place! They hand make everything so it takes a bit to get your food; be kind and patient, it’s TOTALLY worth it 👍🏼💛✨ The owner and her kids are making the food with so much love and care! Don’t forget to take a walk around the stores before or after your dining and enjoy the town and nature! We’re totally coming back!!

It has been a long time since I ate here, but it was absolutely delicious!! Just the cutest little café tucked away in the rocky terrain that is Mogollon. Such a quaint and peaceful place to enjoy a delicious green chile cheeseburger and all the beauty the mountain has to offer!! ♥
