Romo's Restaurant - Holbrook, Arizona

Comida buena cuando llego a la mesa pero tienen un serio problema de personal. Solo había un camarero para 15 mesas que habría en ese momento y 2 personas en la cocina y tardaron más de una hora en servirnos y aproximadamente 15 min en servirnos agua y mostrarnos el menú. Vimos salir a mucha gente enfadada y sin comer. Muy mala experiencia después de haber estado en el Petrified Forest National Park, no paren en este restaurante a pesar de las recomendaciones que tienen, les puede retrasar todo su viaje por la ruta 66!

Stopped here for a quick bite! Ended up having a full dinner course. Enchilada plate was great. Good flavor and quality ingredients. Friendly staff. And beautiful decor

We initially had just some chips and salsa. The chip ball was overflowing, and the salsa is very unique, somewhat spicy, came in a large bowl. We ordered this chimichanga to split it, the shredded beef was tender and moist. My girlfriend had a pear margarita and said that it tasted good.

I can definitely say a similar meal in California, with a couple beers at the margarita, would easily be 60+ dollars. We were out the door for $41, including 18% tip.

We went here on a recommendation from a ranger roll visiting the Petrified Forest.

I'll normally say, yeah good place to go. So when I say highly recommended, I mean most definitely way above average. Pic says it all 😄. Two of us, yes, but she only had like a third of the chimichanga. And we are totally stuffed.

Romo's offers a delicious selection of American and Mexican fare. I enjoyed the Mexican country-fried steak (something I've never even heard of before) with green and red chili sauce on top, served with a side of rice and beans and a homemade warm tortilla. The tortilla was so sweet and thick, almost like a pancake. It was more than I could stomach, I was stuffed- especially after enjoying the chips and salsa. Though the salsa was spicier than most I've tried in restaurants, it slows the pace of eating the chips, saving room for the meal. My date ordered the chicken chimichanga and said it's the best he's ever had.

Expect to wait- servers and signs on the wall explain there is always a wait because everything is made fresh and in-house. It is definitely worth the wait. Brittany served our dinner and was friendly and made great recommendations.

We came here after our visit to Petrified Forest NP on our way back to our hotel. When looking for parking, we noticed a Christmas celebration going on in the town square, directly across from Romo's. So we enjoyed that first and walked across the street for dinner. That helped make our visit feel less tourist-y and more like a regular dining in.

Authentic Mexican food, full of flavor. Great portions for the $. Dated decor and dimly lit, but clean.

Food was quite good. Service was good too in the sense that the waiter was very polite, helpful, and pleasant. But the wait for the food was really long. It took well over an hour for our food to arrive and that seems to be the norm - they even had a note in their menu that says their food is prepared fresh and to expect a wait. If you go, don't go hungry and be prepared to wait, or go closer to closing, we noticed that people who came in after 8 didn't wait so long for their food.
