Horrible Change!
This place was great before they moved to their new location. It was simple, cozy...and now it seems they've gotten too big for their britches. Some of the best dishes have been taken off the menu and replaced with fare that's really trying to be something it's not. The waitstaff are obviously stressed to the max, both times I ate there I heard the manager lady yelling at them. If the acoustics were better perhaps it wouldn't be so obvious, but with the huge open spaces, it sounds like a cafeteria. Your money would be better spent elsewhere.    [23 Dec 2006 12:25:43]

Love it!
Honestly I love this place. I eat here at least once a week, and when I'm busy at work they'll do take-out for me. The green chile potato soup is to die for! Keep up the good work!!!    [13 Feb 2007 13:42:46]

Has Potential, but Needs Help
Went to the Paisano Cafe the other night since I had heard some good things about it, including something about a very accomplished chef. Strange to say, there were no cars in the parking lot (never a good sign!) and upon entering we found we were the only people in the place. And, we remained the only people in the place throughout the meal!! A waitress...there was only one...seated us wherever we wanted and gave us the menu. Upon looking the menu over we realized it was a breakfast and lunch menu. When we questioned the waitress about this she said they were re-doing the dinner menu and were only serving lunch-type meals!! The owner came out and explained that the supposedly highly accomplished chef had left for better parts and that the pastry chef had gone to Albuquerque. The new cook was not familiar with the dinners the former chef had prepared and that they had no option but to serve the lunch menu. She said it would be a couple weeks before they got going again. It is a shame because the place was nice with a bright and clean interior, and had a nice outdoor patio. I ordered a Southwest Chicken Wrap with a cup of potato-chile soup. The meal was fairly priced and pretty good. My companion had a steak-salad which was reported to be very good. The price was reasonable for its size. German chocolate cake was very good as was the coconut cream pie. This place has potential, but they have a long way to go to get their act together. I will not return for dinner until I hear tales that they do...and that may take a while!    [02 Aug 2007 14:08:49]
