" My family and I decided to give La Escondida Cafe a try during our visit to Roswell. The restaurant felt like a hidden gem! We ordered a variety of dishes, and everything was bursting with flavor. I especially loved the chilaquiles and the homemade salsa. While the service was generally good, we did experience a bit of a wait for our food since they were busy, but it was worth it. The ambiance was inviting, and the portions left us all satisfied. We will definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been to La Escondida multiple times now, and they never disappoint! The breakfasts are consistently great, especially the breakfast burritos. I love that they're made to order using fresh ingredients; you can really taste the difference. The atmosphere is casual, which I appreciate, and it's definitely a locals' hangout. If you're visiting Roswell and want yummy Mexican food, this place should be your first stop! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been going to La Escondida for years, and every time I go, it feels like coming home. The staff remembers my usual order, and the food is consistently delicious. The enchiladas are by far my favorite; they have the best flavor combination! I appreciate that they always serve large portions at reasonable prices. The casual atmosphere is perfect for families, but be prepared, it can get busy during peak hours! Overall, 10/10 experience as always! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a fantastic little cafe! I tried a few different breakfast items during my visits, and they never let me down. Their green chile has a wonderful depth of flavor and really brings the dishes to life! Service is attentive, and I enjoyed the casual environment. The only downside I noticed was the parking situation, which can be tricky during peak times. Still, I’ll definitely return next time I’m in Roswell. " (*Curated Review*)

" This little place packs quite a punch! I had a fantastic breakfast here—definitely the best I've had in a long time! The huevos rancheros were top-notch, and exceeded my expectations. It's obvious the staff takes pride in their work. The only minor issue was the wait for a table during busy hours, but that's to be expected at a local favorite. I would recommend La Escondida Cafe without any reservations! " (*Curated Review*)

" La Escondida Cafe was a delightful surprise. The food was refreshing and vibrant, clearly prepared with high-quality ingredients. I went for lunch and had the taco platter, which was packed with flavor and a generous amount of meat. The dishes are marked with options for various heat levels, which is thoughtful because I prefer milder flavors. Service was prompt, and the environment was relaxed. I can’t wait to come back for dinner next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you want real New Mexican food, you can't beat La Escondida Cafe! I'm a bit of a food snob when it comes to Mexican cuisine, and this place exceeded my expectations. The carne adovada was exceptionally tender and had just the right amount of spice. The service staff were charming and attentive without being intrusive. I found the overall experience delightful, and the only downside was the limited parking space outside. Still, I will return for more of that delicious food! " (*Curated Review*)
