I will start with one caveat: I am biased about Stop & Eat since I grew up in the area and this has always been my favorite burger joint. Keep that in mind if I start gushing too much.
The location itself looks like something out of a 50's era snapshot. The indoor seating is sparse and consists of two counters and a handful of bolted down bar stools. The vast majority of patrons dine in their cars under corrugated steel canopies. There are no intercoms to order from and no carhops to serve you. You place your order either inside or from the "walk up window" and you pick it up when your number is called from a loudspeaker.
The food selection is a combination of burger-joint and taco-stand fare with lots of fresh, New Mexican chile. The signature burger, the Jumbo Twin, is arguably the best burger I have ever had in NM or anywhere else. However, it's the rolled tacos, or taquitos, that I am addicted to. The filling is a unique, molten mess of beefy, cheesy goodness that I find myself craving way more often than is healthy. Now that I think about it, I don't believe I've ever had anything else from the menu, so I can't comment about other items. -

This place is a pretty good reflection of Northern NM food. The green/ red chile has a great bite that can compete with any restaurant in New Mexico. It is a really cool place to eat for a quick bite or even going in. It looks outdated but has a charm to it.
It is a more of a "eat in your car" sonic kind of place...The food they offer are tamales, burritos, posole, and different plates.
I had a frito pie and you can have it any way you like..fritos, cheese, red chile, lettuce, and tomato (no onions for me). -

Looking for locally owned drive-in? This is the spot to "Stop". Great variety to the menu with reasonable prices. Had the recommended deep fried burrito and it was great.

Excellent crispy fries!!! Highly recommend. Wonderful service. Great people. Meet the owners. They run the counter. It's hard to find a 60's burger joint in this century.

Just stopped here on the way up to Ghost Ranch from Santa Fe. The burgers were amazing and the best part was the staff. They were so friendly and welcoming. It was my first real drive-in experience as well! Definitely recommend eating here.
