Driving up to Si Señor Flavor of New Mexico on 4130 White Sage in northeast Las Cruces, I was immediately drawn in by the thoughtfully designed architecture and landscaping. The familiar fountain out front brought back memories of the original Si Señor. Though it was not yet noon, a good number of diners were already enjoying their meals in the dining area. Inside, the decor struck a perfect balance, capturing the grandeur of the original Si Señor while seamlessly blending it with a modern, takeout-diner flair.
Stepping inside, I was immediately enveloped by the rich, inviting aromas of fresh chile, beans, and warm bread and sopapillas—the quintessential scents of an exceptional New Mexican restaurant. I was greeted with genuine smiles and a warm welcome as I placed my order. Seated, I admired the decor even more, and after a brief wait, my meal arrived, every bit as delicious as what I remembered from the original restaurant. It was clear this food was prepared with the same care and from-scratch authenticity that cannot be faked. The green chile was divine, featuring perfectly cooked cuts of beef, while the rich red chile that screams fresh and pure, with its succulent, perfectly prepared pork, created an even better chile con carne. The spanish rice, the familiar Arroz Castillo, and the freshly cooked beans offered the same comforting, uniquely homemade taste I had cherished at the original Si Señor.
I had the distinct pleasure of meeting Sergio Castillo, the esteemed grand patron of Si Señor. A true connoisseur of New Mexican cuisine, particularly chile, Sergio’s passion for the food served in his restaurants is evident in every fiber of his being. He meticulously sources ingredients from local farms, with his chile coming from a single farm in the Hatch area that meets his rigorous standards for quality and flavor.
I also had the honor of meeting his son, Diego Castillo, who manages both restaurant kitchens. Diego shares his father’s dedication to quality. His appreciation for the nuanced flavor and “bouquet” of the chile, which he believes cannot be improved, was music to the ears of a chile farmer’s grandson like myself.
My tour of the kitchen at Si Señor offered a fascinating glimpse into their culinary philosophy. It was a marvel of efficiency, yet absolutely no corners were cut in preparation. The owners and staff were actively involved in every aspect, guaranteeing consistent quality and flavor in both preparation and presentation. Their movements were like a well-oiled machine, a testament to their teamwork.
The air was filled with the unmistakable aroma of fresh red chile, the scent of baking bread, and the preparations for corn tortillas and sopaipillas. Everything was made from scratch. The rich smells of fresh beans and Arroz Castillo were also present, assuring me that any dish ordered from Si Señor would be made with fresh, scratch-made ingredients, free of shortcuts or fillers.
“This is my life,” Sergio declared, proudly gesturing to his kitchen. It’s clear that this space along with his original restaurant, embodies not just his life, but his soul and the love he shares with his family. This same passion and dedication extend to his staff, whose loyalty is a testament to the Castillo family’s genuine affection for their restaurants, their team, and their customers. Such a rare quality is truly only found in a family-owned establishment like Si Señor
04/14/25 I got Ground Beef Nachos and Beer and they even included Chips and 4 salsas. I didn’t even touch the Chips and Salsas as the Nachos are just enormous and delicious. I ate 1/3 and already stuffed. The owner said, even if one merely have beer, they still get the Chips and 4 Salsas. What a deal.
When I got the taco salad home, it was large. The shredded beef was tough. The kind of tough that when you chew it gets bigger in your mouth so you have to put it in a napkin. There were so many tough bites I gave up. The oil the shell and chips was fried and needed changing. It was old and tasted like food from an old carnival. I noticed the cheese on top was semi melted and the salad was hot. For 14.00, this ended up in the trashcan. Please think fresh ingredients, change your oil. I’m sticking to burritos next time. I’ve been a customer since they opened.
We ordered a couple Chile Relleno burritos and they’re HUGE! We opted to share one and save the other to share for breakfast (with green sauce, an egg and frijoles of course!). We couldn’t finish them. They were so good! We could have done with a thinner layer of batter, but nonetheless, DELISH!
We weren’t aware that chips and salsa came with our food and ordered more, again, happy that we did because each bag came with 4 different salsas to enjoy.
BTW..delivery was exceptionally fast with DoorDash. Food was still hot upon arrival!
This was a delicious Saturday afternoon delight! Would definitely order again!
Maybe they will go out of business and a good Mexican restaurant will take things over.
