We stayed at a near by B&B and had dinner there one night. It was a very good burger -- ground fresh daily. It's a small place but everytime we passed it, the parking lot was full. We had to wait about 20 minutes to be seated but it was worth the wait. More

Got their early on good advice and beat the SRO lunch crowd. Green Chili cheese burgers are unique to his area and do stand up to their reputation. Great! another great joint - ya gotta love'em. More

Waited quite a long time for a table but once seated the service was good. Had a really BIG burger which was yummy but the "home fries" tasted like they had been cooked long before I got there. Burger comes with chips so I'd just have them instead. Waitresses were really friendly. More

When you get to this small Gem be prepared to see a line waiting out the door and then some (don't forget to put your name on the board). This said, the wait is worth the great homemade green chili burger that awaits you. More

We traveled in New Mexico in April with my 80+ year young mother. I insisted we find Bobcat Bite as we wanted to try a good green chile burger. My mother was quite hesitant as we drove up to this restaurant, and even more so when we walked into the very small dining area. But that trepidation didn't last long.... More

just like people say, this joint dishes a great burger experience; wonderful little rustic room set out of town on the old hiway in from the north. The staff couldn't have been more personable; the burger was great antibiotic free meat cooked to perfection on a particularly good bun with loads of green chile. We had two classic and good... More

Our 1st visit. Found it on here and had to try it. Well worth the trip. I think I counted 27 seats in the place, every one full. The grind of the burger meat is outstanding. Just the right balance of flavor and quality. Listed as a 10oz burger, but looks and eats more like a 3/4th pound. No CC... More
