Customer Reviews
This is the kind of place I was looking for during our mini vacation trip to NM. This is a perfect little mom and pop type of Mexican restaurant. On the outside it didn't look too inviting except for the now serving beer signs they had lol. The inside was very clean and simple.

Context: Road trip for caverns Grabbed lunch here on the way out of town. Read “it is always good and always quick.” That was our experience. Ordered a cheeseburger and barbacoa tacos.

Menudo is on point, best in town. Everywhere else has a weird taste, but Monarca is the best.
