" If you crave authentic New Mexican food, Nancy's Silver Cafe is the place to be! The atmosphere feels cozy and inviting, and the staff were friendly. I ordered the green chili plate, and it was flavorful without being overly spicy. Also, the homemade sopapillas are a must-have! Definitely coming back whenever I'm in Silver City. " (*Curated Review*)

" Nancy's is a nostalgic gem that serves great New Mexican food. Everything is homemade, from the sauces to the sopapillas. Every visit feels like visiting a family member's home. I would recommend trying the combination plate; it has a bit of everything and is reasonably priced! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful find! Came here for lunch after hearing rave reviews and it didn't disappoint. The chili they serve is homemade and packed with flavor. I ordered the tamale, and it was one of the best I've had—super soft and tender! The only downside was the limited seating; it gets busy quickly. Overall, great food and simple charm make it a worthwhile stop in Silver City. " (*Curated Review*)

" Nancy's is a great place for a casual meal. The chips were decent, but the rest didn't stand out. I could see it being a local favorite, but for me, it just didn’t hit the spot. I’d recommend a visit if you’re nearby but maybe have low expectations. " (*Curated Review*)

" Nancy's Silver Cafe feels like a hidden gem tucked away in Silver City. Our family has been coming here for years, and it never disappoints. The red enchiladas are my personal favorite—they're rich, spicy, and perfect. The service is usually prompt, and the staff makes you feel right at home. I also love that there’s always a bustling atmosphere filled with locals. It's a true taste of New Mexico! " (*Curated Review*)

" Nancy's was recommended to me by a friend, and I can see why! When we arrived, we were welcomed warmly and quickly seated. The homemade salsa served with chips was fresh and set the tone for our meal. I had the huevos rancheros, and it was authentic and delicious! The only criticism I have is that the service was a bit slow during the peak hours, but once we got our food, it was worth the wait. I’d certainly go back! " (*Curated Review*)

" This little cafe truly is a hidden gem! From the moment I walked in, I felt at home. The decor is simple but charming, and the food was incredible. I tried the combination plate—each item was delicious, but the chili relleno stole the show. Every bite was filled with authentic flavors and generous portions. Definitely one of my new go-to spots when I'm in Silver City! " (*Curated Review*)
