Tumbleweeds Diner
Restaurant
👍👍 Tumbleweeds is probably the best restaurant in Socorro County, and absolutely worth visiting, whether you're passing by on 60 on a long trip, or a local searching for good food in a friendly environment.
We go about once a month, or every other, depending on circumstances (so these photos are from...

Great little park is opposite of Museum.
Very nice employees. Very clean inside and around the building. Restroom...

Journey's Place
Restaurant
👍👍 We stopped here after exploring the Quebradas. I want to return just to eat here again!! I really appreciated their outdoor sink set up for very convenient hand washing! The nachos were perfect, my hubs was ecstatic to see a fried bologna sandwich with green chile on the menu (which he loved). The g...

La Pasadita
Mexican restaurant
👍👍 This was the gem we were looking for.
Authentic Mexican food in a perfect atmosphere.
Must admit that the area was a little scary, but my God, the service and food was to die for.
I couldn't eat it all.
It's flavorful but not hot spicy.
My wife and I loved it.
I highly highly recommend.

The Box Recreation Area
Park
👍👍 If car camping, you can continue past the main area to the right and up the hill. You'll pass across a corner of private property and then be back on BLM land, there are several pulloffs just for cars to stop and camp.
Obviously no fires these days, be safe!
Amazing views, very peaceful and beauti...

Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array Visitor Center
Visitor center
👍👍 Ever seen a giant radio dish up close? It's a bit of a drive, but totally worth it to see a... very large array of radio telescopes. The visitor center is small but informative, and there's a short walking tour that will take anywhere from 30-60 minutes. Plenty of information about what the radio te...

We both enjoyed our food.
Service was great: friendly, nice, attentive and helpfu...

The attitude from this place has drastically changed over the last 6 years. They don't show most movies, and a lot of movies a fe...
