The Green Chile Chicken Enchiladas are the bomb.com!! Comes with Free Bottomless Chips and Salsa - Absolutely the best Mexican restaurant in Las Cruces. Everything here is absolutely amazing. I haven’t gone even once when the food wasn’t absolutely phenomenal. The staff is super sweet and very efficient. The salsas are delicious (the chipotle is my favorite, and our family always has two or three jars of the traditional and the green salsa in our kitchen). Overall, Andeles is the best mexican restaurant in town, and I might go as far as to say the best restaurant in general we have in Las Cruces. Never disappointing, always phenomenal.

Great value, good quality food, and offers late night delivery. The wings are cooked perfectly and the enchilada pizza are to die for. The pizza dishes here are not too greasy and they also offer gluten free pizza too.
Offers delicious sandwich options, including the Green Chili Ruben. Bread is great. Our favorite is the ham and pineapple with green chili, which sounds weird but taste great together. For dessert, they offer moist lemon cake.
They also offer delicious enchilada pie, it has all the best ingredients that includes fresh tomatoes to green Chile.

This French Bakery is absolutely the best place in town for pastries, breakfast, and brunch! Please do not judge a book by its cover, as the site is in a worn-down strip mall with shared parking, but you will not regret your decision. There is a good assortment of pastries and cakes. Their eclairs are delicious, and believe me, it is the most delicious eclair in the western part of America. There is a cafe that showcases with pastries and cakes. The owner is from France and knows his stuff.
You can't go wrong with any of their menu items, although my favorite dishes are Eggs Benedict and Le Croque Monsieur, both are ridiculously delicious. Cinnamon rolls are excellent and French Onion soup is also very good. Highly recommend.
The pastries are to die for. My favorite are the eclairs, fruit tarts (OMG!! My favorite), the chocolate croissant, and the chocolate/ raspberry cake, just to name a few

My go-to is the amazing Cuban sandwich! They smoke all there own meats and the bacon is made in house, as well as the bread used on the Cuban. Every other Wednesday they have Rib night starting at 6pm, but get there early because they run out quick. Their chips and salsa is a must!
- Serves the best Green Chile Bacon Cheese burger in town (aka: 'A-Mountain' burger).
- Offers Saturday/Sunday Brunch. Go-to dish is the 'Madame Mesilla' and the skillet hash (has delicious smoked pulled pork).
- Also recommended are the carnitas hash with eggs, blueberry pancakes blueberry topped with vanilla cream.

Authentic Belgian Breakfast experience. Popular place on weekends, tip: make a reservation online and get priority seating. The Belgian waffles are perfectly crisp on the outside and soft inside. The cream options for the top make it extra special. I love their Bavarian Cream, as well as their Pumpkin Spice Cream.

My go to favorite is the "Rio Grande combination plate" with 5 items, Chile Colorado, tamale, enchilada, Chile relleno and a taco. Big enough to satisfy hunger, with huge leftovers the next day.
Also, the ceviche tacos are delicious too. The stuffed sopapillas with shredded chicken and shredded beef with green chile are a must. At the end of every meal, FREE warm sopapillas are offered, Dont forget to Save room for the cinnamon-sugar sopapilla.

My go to favorites is the Caesar salad prepared table side along with delicious steak entrees. They also have the option for flambé right at your table side. Bananas foster or cream brûlée cheesecake is a must to conclude the meal.

This is a Popular hangout spot for the young at heart and unique individuals looking for an adventure. Those eager to step back in time to the glory days of arcade gaming and recapture a few high scores should stop by.
Walls are wrapped floor-to-ceiling with splashes of neon and the likenesses of all the pop icons and idols of the 1980s and ’90s. It’s like nothing else in Las Cruces, with an aesthetic that might just take gamers back to the golden era of Tilt.
With more than 50 arcade games, stretching from the late 1970s and the golden age of arcade gaming up through the state-of-the-art machines of today, on more than 4,000 square feet of gaming space, there’s something to appeal to every gamer, young and old.
That means all the classic arcade machines — Galaga, Donkey Kong, Space Invaders, Pac Man and Ms. Pac Man, Frogger, Fix-It Felix Jr. (of “Wreck-It Ralph” fame) and Atari Football.
This gallery of games surrounds a large central bar serving beer, wine, liquor, mixed drinks, and a selection of frozen drinks and unique cocktails. Beat the heat with the Runt2D2, a fruity frozen drink made with Strawberry Smirnoff vodka and topped with Runts candy; the Senor Pete, a frozen mango-chamoy drink, made with Mango Smirnoff and topped with a mango-chile lollipop; and the Surfer Dude, a frozen prickly-pear drink topped with Grapefruit Smirnoff.
Cocktails include the Tennessee Mule, a Moscow Mule made with Jack Daniels and just a hint of raspberry; the refreshing Prickly Hippy, made with Jose Cuervo Tradicional; and the refreshing, bright blue Old Blue, made with Firefly Moonshine.
