Customer Reviews

I was in town for business and ended up staying overnight. After looking at options I thought I would try Felisa's. I was able to walk in and get promptly seated. The ladies who were servicing the tables were hustling! They must walk miles with every shift as they were all over the dining area and never slowed down or stopped smiling! service was great. I ended up ordering a combo meal with a taco, chili relleno, and enchilada. All with ground beef. It came out in short order and paired well with the beer I had. The place was about half full which I didn't think was bad for a Thursday night. The atmosphere was good with music playing in the background and the lights slightly dimned in the back portion where I was seated. To end the meal I ordered a serving of fried ice cream and you should too! The options on the menu will take care of most people and the price was respectable. Definitely a good value!

We have been coming to La Junta for 20 years and eating at Felisa each time. How do they stay so good for so long? It's a mystery. We don't know when we will be back but when we do we will eat here again. The chips are served warm and it's obvious that the guacamole is made fresh.

Another great road trip stop. Kind staff and great food. Flavorful fajitas, yummy spicy salsa, and the deep fried ice cream was different but very good.
