This is my second time coming here and it's just as good as the first time. It's priced just right enough to get full on or even take home. Straight up comfort food. The staff are friendly. Clean eating and clean bathrooms. You won't be let down.

I was very pleasantly surprised visiting this place after years of not stopping in. I have a very affordable daily special on the board every day. They have a very tasty salsa! It was a nice surprise to find that they have chicharrones on the menu! I highly recommend sharing a bowl with your group.

I recently dined in here at Francisca's for dinner. I ordered the combination plate, which consisted of a Chile relleno, enchilada, taco, refried beans, and rice. Everything was fresh and tasty, as well as the sopaipillas. The service was friendly too. I'll be back for sure.

Food was amazing! They were incredibly accommodating when we asked to substitute items in a meal in order to make it vegetarian. I was very impressed with the service, and the family-run business adds to the great atmosphere. We enjoyed our experience, and wish we didn’t live so far away!

My husband and I (were) 30 year residence of Four Corners. We moved seven years ago to Texas, ya'll. I will tell you - the struggle is real. There is nothing on this planet better than "Northern" New Mexican food. We've been in a dry Mexican food desert for seven long years. We've been back many times and always enjoyed northern New Mexican food on our return visits, but I must say, last night's dinner was the best, perfectly flavored northern New Mexican food I've ever experienced - and it's not in Santa Fe or Albuquerque! It's here, at Francisca's. We both ordered the number 7 combo plate. Yes, I know it's tons of food, but we wanted left-overs for breakfast - didn't happen. The plate comes with a hand-fried corn tortilla taco, a ground beef enchilada, a cheese enchilada, a relleno, a tamale, rice and beans. Our meal started off with chips and salsa (2) - warm chips with fire roasted salsa. So delicious, we thought, "Uh oh, this is so good it's bound to go downhill from here." It didn't. It just got better. You know, when you take the first bites of your plate, everything tastes really good, but as you eat, the meal gets less? This meal was just delicious with every bite from first to last. We ordered ours with red chili - which contributed so much to the meal. It's the kind of flavor you want to drink from a bowl - that's how good it was. I know I sound like a raving lunatic but it was really that good! Our favorite was the red pork tamale, although everything else was perfect too, including the rellano, which is seldom done well. Honestly, this was the best northern New Mexican meal I've ever had. Our thanks to Alberto Rubio (our server) and kudos to his mom and her "best I've ever tasted" recipes.

It was our first time going, based on a personal recommendation. We started with chips and chili con queso. All I can say is WOW! It was delicious. My wife ordered the cheese enchilada platter and I had the #8 which came with 2 cheese enchiladas, a pork tamale, and a beef taco. It was all fantastic. We will most definitely be back...soon!
