" I'm sad to say my experience at Jorge's was less than stellar. Despite the good reviews, I found the food to be average at best. I ordered the beef fajitas, which were okay but lacked seasoning, and my server seemed a bit disinterested. The decor was charming, and the atmosphere was nice, but it was hard to enjoy the setting when the food didn't excite me. Overall, a mixed bag, and not somewhere I’d frequent often. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a mixed experience at Jorge's Cafe. The atmosphere is nice and casual, a perfect spot for families. I enjoyed the breakfast burrito filled with chorizo and scrambled eggs; it was hearty and good. But I was disappointed with the service, as it seemed like the staff were overwhelmed. Although I waited quite a bit for my food, I appreciated how friendly they were. I think they may just need more hands during peak hours. I would come back to give them another try, as the food was very tasty. " (*Curated Review*)

" As a Mexican-American, I tend to be critical of any Mexican restaurant, but Jorge's Cafe pleasantly surprised me. The chiles rellenos were perfection; they were crispy on the outside and stuffed generously. The green sauce they served on top complemented the dish beautifully. I also loved their homemade chips and salsa. Only downside was the service, which, although friendly, could be improved. I had to wait longer than I liked for refills. Nevertheless, the food made it all worthwhile. I’ll definitely be recommending this place to my friends. " (*Curated Review*)

" Cute little place with character! The food can be hit or miss, though. I ordered the shrimp tacos, which had a good amount of shrimp but lacked seasoning—definitely needed more punch. They were still decently fresh. The service was friendly but somewhat inattentive, as I had to flag down the waiter for more drinks. Overall, a decent experience, but I expected more based on the reviews. Can’t say I’ll be rushing back any time soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" My family's favorite place to eat when visiting Ruidoso! Jorge's Cafe never disappoints. The portions are generous, and the flavor of everything from the tacos to the burritos is on point. It’s a casual environment where you can enjoy a meal without feeling rushed. We especially love their salsa; it's just the right amount of heat. The service is usually good, although they can be slow when the place is packed. I've recommended this restaurant to many friends, and they've all enjoyed it too! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been a fan of Jorge's Cafe for a long time—I've always loved their delicious food. Their chili rellenos were fantastic, with a crispy outside and a delicious filling. The atmosphere is friendly, making it a great spot for family gatherings. While service can get slow during busy times, I consider it a small price for what is otherwise an excellent dining experience. Will continue to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" Jorge's Cafe is a must after visiting Ruidoso! The food is tasty and the portions generous—my empenadas were filled beautifully. My only complaint would be the service was somewhat uncoordinated, with long waits in between courses. However, the food was excellent and I appreciated how they source local ingredients, making every bite feel special. I look forward to my next dining experience! " (*Curated Review*)
