• Funky western decor.
• No longer serves world's hottest chile soup.

“I used to make a regular pilgrimage here for the Outpost's incredibly hot Chile soup. The first time I had it, I was amazed that they'd serve something that even I had trouble eating. It was that hot. We ate there yesterday and found out there had been complaints about the Chile, so they toned it down. It's still tasty and unique, not the ketchup bowl of beans with an inch-thick crown of melted cheese you usually get. Good burgers and other basics. Service is usually okay. Decor is one-of-a-kind, including the cube display case on the bar with a psychorama of various stuffed creatures.”

• Outstanding food. The Green Chile Cheese burgers are heavenly.
• The waiting staff can have a thoroughly casual approach to service.

“The food at the Outpost is unbeatable. I have to go there every time I stop through Carrizozo, even though it isn't the quickest place to eat. If you want to know what a true New Mexico Green Chile Cheese burger is like, there is no better place to go than the Outpost. The atmosphere is great as well, new restaurants will never be able to replicate an authentic, old-time restaurant like The Outpost.”

• The food is great; especially the green Chile cheeseburger.
• The waitress was unbelievably rude so we won't be going back again.

“For the last 2.5 years we have stopped at The Outpost whenever I traveled through just for their green chili cheeseburgers. We have sometimes planned my trip to accommodate a stop there. Today we stopped there for lunch. Besides a family finishing their meal we were the only other people in the restaurant. After a few minutes waiting for the waitress (who had seen us but hadn't approached) I left my order with my wife and used the restroom. After I returned a few more families came in and the waitress started taking orders from them. After she skipped us twice I approached her and reminded her we had been the first in the restaurant and were waiting for her. She rudely told me since I had gone to the restroom we'd have to wait our turn. Obviously that meant last in the building. I told her she'd lost our business for good and we left. It's a shame since my past visits have always been great. If you find yourself there waiting on a fat waitress with glasses - best luck!”

• An order of real fries feeds 3 to 4. Not those frozen microwave things.
• Last time there they were closed.

“Take your Yuppie attitude and drive on by. While family friendly this is a biker, cowboy, rancher, hunter, GI, backpacker, campers friendly place. Coldest beer in New Mexico and the Greatest Green Chili Cheese Burgers in the world. I've been going there since 1989 and it never changes. Cooks come and go, but the GCCB's stay the same. Excellent. I have taken a lot of visitors there over the years and everyone wants to come back. The decor is evolutionary. Stuffed animal heads, old guns, western without planning. It is as authentic as dust.”
