Was gud


Gute Service, gutes Essen.
Passing through town and stayed at a hotel. Went here for an early dinner around 5:00pm. The Monday special was Country Fried Steak, so I ordered it. The meal came with green (or pinto) beans, split pea soup (or salad), potatoes (your choice), and a roll to go with the HUGE flattened, breaded, and fried steak.
The soup was served first and it was absolutely amazing. I had never before eaten split pea soup so I was worried about how it would be. Oh my goodness! Get some if it is available. The green beans were specially prepared, not just poured from a can and heated and were very good. I got mashed potatoes with (white) gravy and they were good. The steak was definitely something that I would recommend as it was perfectly cooked and very tasty. This was an awesome dining experience as I was solo and sat at the counter bar! Highly recommend stopping here for a meal.
We decided to try this place on a trip to Gallup. Sadly, the food wasn't that great. I had the Spam combo with eggs and hash browns and we got a sweet roll for dessert. The scrambled eggs weren't cooked all the way, the hash browns had no flavor and the sweet roll was extremely dense. I probably wouldn't go back.
Earl's was on our list to eat at. It didn't disappoint. Friendly service and fast food delivery. We had the roast beef sandwich and club sandwich. Well worth it their food is great. Take your time to find Earl's in your travels you will be pleased.
A staple in Gallup. Locally, family owned diner with good food and fast, friendly service. Large portions at fair prices. We enjoyed a Navajo Taco. Ask them to split it when you order - more than enough for two. Found a new must stop when going thru Gallup. Stop at Duke Fuel next door for fuel and nourishment for the road.
Super friendly, fast service. Charming environment. Fruit was fresh, hash browns tasty, and coffee was good. I am glad we stopped. Walking through the doors was like walking back on time.
Stopped by here for the Navajo Tacos after seeing a story about it on TV - what a FANTASTIC place! The Navajo Taco was GREAT (and huge). They say it is enough for two, and If you tell them you want to share one, they bring TWO enormous plates of food for you, with half the taco on each one. Both their red and green salsas were fantastic, but the chunky roasted green chili salsa with pork and other vegetables was beyond compare.
I was kinda sorry that I went there specifically with the intent of trying their Navajo Taco because the other food looked so good too, particularly the meatloaf on the daily special (quickly sold out). This place is quite large and VERY busy with locals, and the prices are as good as the food.
We were initially put off by the number of strolling vendors offering all types of Navajo jewelry and goods, but this changed after we understood that each of these people has a "permit" and ID as a approved Earl's vendor. The prices for their goods were certainly fair, and I really appreciate that this business is ACTIVELY supporting the local native community.
We WILL be back, many times. I just wish this wonderful place was less than 200 miles away so we could go there more often!
