The mountain-dwelling folks here are friendly, greeting you with a tall glass of sweet tea to wash down the trail dust. The chicken-fried dinner (your choice of chicken or steak) is an ode to mountain appetites everywhere, because the portions of hot, mashed red potatoes, plump sweet corn, juicy, hand-battered beef steak and thick milk gravy are practically hanging off the plate. With such table-heavy delights as nachos New Mexico ($4.50, or add $1 for chicken or beef), made with natural-cut potato chips, or the East Mountain thunder burger (hamburger infused with green chile and cheese, battered, deep-fried and served on a sourdough bun, $6.99) there’s no shame in bustin’ your best Wranglers. A full Starbucks-like espresso bar fancies things up, too, as does brunch (served from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Sundays). But it’s closed on Mondays, ya hear? (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010)

This unassuming pizza joint just off the I-40 Edgewood exit is notable specifically for its thin and very crispy crust. The pies are baked on screens and served on perforated pans so the crust never gets soggy. Pies come in two sizes—small (14-inch) and large (16-inch)—and you’ll have to try hard to spend more than $16 on a large. Dinner only, seven days a week. Yes, there is beer.
