I have been eating at this restaurant for the past year and I can confidently say that this is one of the best restaurants in the area if not the best. The food always comes out fresh and correct. The service was amazing. The waitress’ was very helpful and kind to me and my party always. I strongly recommend this restaurant. It is by far my favorite.

The place is modest in decor and feel which is enduring to me because the food is the primary star of this place. A feel good and welcoming place that delivers great food at really great prices.
After spending a Sunday at the feast day celebration in Jicarilla Apache Nation, we had arrived late in Hernandez, NM, needing to stop for gas. My friend suggested we dine at Socorro’s Restaurant, having researched open eateries on Google Maps. Upon arrival, we were delighted to find the place bustling with cars bearing New Mexico license plates, a promising sign of a great dining experience.
Perusing the menu, we discovered the fascinating story of Socorro’s Restaurant, owned by Socorro Herrera, who transitioned from singer to restaurant owner. With endearing self-deprecation, she acknowledged her initial lack of culinary knowledge and the skepticism of locals regarding her cooking abilities. I found her story and attitude captivating and was eager to sample her cuisine. My expectations were soon surpassed.
Both of us were famished, so we opted for combination plates, hers with red chile and mine with the spicier green chile. Our table was graced with ginormous plates of aromatic and flavorful goodness, accompanied by separate servings of sopapillas, a taco, and distinct salsas.
While the combination dishes were excellent, the highlight for me was the beans. They were evidently fresh and cooked to a rich crémeux textured perfection, reminiscent of ambrosia. My dining companion and I agreed that the beans were truly exceptional. Having family members who owned Spanish restaurants and being familiar with Northern New Mexican cuisine, I judge establishments based on three key factors: beans, Spanish rice, and sopapillas or tortillas. Chile is an entirely distinct category, influenced by my upbringing on a chile farm in my youth.
Based on these criteria, I would rate Socorro’s Restaurant as follows: the beans were outstanding, the green chile was flavorful and excellent, the Spanish rice was delightful, and the sopapillas (a generous four of them!) were also exceptional. I rank this restaurant among the best in the area, and the prices are reasonable considering the quantity and quality of food received. The use of disposable paper drink cups and cutlery is practical given their commitment to providing quality food at affordable prices.
As stated in the beginning of my review the decor is modest and unpretentious, but this is inconsequential as the food takes center stage. Socorro’s Restaurant is a welcoming and convivial space that consistently delivers exceptional cuisine at remarkable prices.

We were able to stop and eat around 2pm on a Saturday. The service was so friendly! My lady ate here twice in row two days a few weeks ago and had this same burger meal which she really talked up! However she said it was much better last time. The meat lacked seasoning however the fries and garnish were super fresh! We were also grateful that we were able to take our dog into the patio area.

This place was just ok. Got the chicken fajitas, but they were really wet in a chipotle sauce. This is a counter order place.

Always a great stop for a good meal. The service is friendly, the food comes quickly and is traditional homemade New Mexican. Even the owner comes out and checks to see how you are doing and if the food is to your satisfaction. I enjoyed some chips and salsa, a breakfast burrito with chicarrones, smothered Christmas style and a sopapilla with honey to finish off with. Everything was delicious and kept me stuffed all day! Definitely stop by when in the area, you won’t be disappointed.

The food was only ok. Took a surprisingly long time to get two tamales and a taco salad; the taco salad didn’t have taco seasoning until he meat and was pretty bland in taste. The service was good and the atmosphere was friendly. My husband likened it to cafeteria food.

My service dog and I came here to celebrate. Service animals are ok when it’s not busy. Grace was my server and she was incredibly kind and courteous, listened carefully and answered all my questions. I came for dinner but it looks like I’m spending a lot more time here to try the whole menu. Got the steak picado and it was the classiest fajitas ever. I dressed it up like with Guac, Sour Cream, and Pico. They did a kids ground beef cup for my service dog too and we really appreciated it. The sweet tea was literally the most perfect cup of sweet tea with the cleanest water. There was ample parking for my Class 5 Snapon Truck and they are close enough and prices fairly so there is no reason to eat fast food in Rio Arriba county. They should close all the junk food places with high quality amazing food like this down the road.

This is the best mom and pop restaurant in New Mexico. The staff was amazing and the owner gladly welcomed us as we were at the table. The food is truly authentic New Mexican food ! The pizza was the take home dessert . . The signage speaks for itself. Must try . Check it out peeps . No disappointments during my visit.

Had wanted to try Socorro’s for a while. Happy I did!
The sopa cheeseburger was yummy, the patty was quite small but nice flavor. The combination plate was the best had in some time.
Service was efficient and kind. Note: for whatever reason they only use plastic flatware.
Definitely give Socorro’s a try, you’ll leave full and happy.

We stopped by for lunch and ordered. Our food came minus the egg for the enchiladas. We had no silverware so our food got cold while we waited. Socorro came by and she noticed no silverware. Waitress finally brought the silverware and later the egg came when the enchiladas were almost gone. We never did get napkins. Our young waitress was nice, but clueless on how to serve customers. She needs some basic training on how to serve properly.
