Hot Stuff Diner - HATCH

I am from and live in El Paso so I am not sure why my tagline is saying San Francisco. We went to Hatch to buy some chili and stopped by at this diner. I am handicapped and have trouble ambulating. I liked they had a gift store connected to the restaurant and in reality this is why we chose it shop and rest. I ordered a combo (chili relleno, enchilada, and taco) and my sister ordered chili relleno. Hands down the chili relleno they were fresh and not greasy. Plus I liked they were not smothered in sauce. You can order this way but we chose not to and I am glad. People were friendly and service was good. Just like mom's....normally when I leave Mexican restaurants, we look for ice cream to help settle our stomach but this is not the case. So if you have a sensitive stomach, this is a good place to go because the food is good and it does not feel heavy in your stomach. Their gift shop is a nice quaint, good prices, good variety, and very friendly people. The prices are very reasonable. They have pots for plants and I have quite a few I purchased in El Paso but I wish I waited because prices were much better. Owner is very nice and helpful. He was unloading product, saw me struggling, and ran to help. There is not a lot in Hatch but this is one place you will want to visit even if you do not eat. They have a number of Mexican curious that are well priced. If you are looking for metal art for your patio or yard, or those huge decorate pots for plants check them out definitely then grab a bite to eat you won't regret and they do take credit cards if you spent all your cash on chili like I did

The store with metal art, pottery etc. is open and deserves 4 stars. HOWEVER, THE DINER IS NO LONGER OPEN.

Great service and loved the food. I got the California burrito smothered in green chili and husband got Huevos Ranchos Christmas. Quick and delicious!

All our meals were very tasty! And homemade, even chips which were great! Wide variety of items to choose from. Kids had French toast that came with fresh fruit eggs and sausage/bacon. I had the flautas and both the shredded beef and chicken were made in house and SIL had chili rellenos that were light, fluffy and delish. Lots of curios and cute little shop inside, definitely going back

The food was very good. I got 2 burritos thinking that for the price they were probably small and I was wrong. I think the burritos are made on homemade tortillas. They were so good, I got one of chicharron and one of barbacoa. My kid ordered the green chile burger and he loved it and is now asking to have all his burgers made with green chile. They served chips and salsa and the salsa was to die for! I wanted to drink it. The service was outstanding from the server. I don't remember his name but he had a small tattoo by his left eye, he made us feel welcome by interacting with us with small chit chat and made us laugh making us feel like we were family. We will definitely be back.
