Dunno that location, but there is a diner in Datil that looks pretty good. Spend some extra time and head to Pie Town, they feed you good at the Pie-O-Neer.
Remember, @Big Fin is a Minnesota boy, so New Mexico chili might simply be too much for him. You being from Caintuck, the jury is out on that one. I'll be following this thread for a report.

My boss is from MN originally, and has been in NM over 20 years. But he emphatically refused any more of my home grown chiles.
For a Tennessee boy, I'm managing to get along ok. One restaurant I finally achieved breakfast proficiency - I can eat the huevos rancheros AND drink coffee. At first it was milk...

They’ve been closed for at least a decade. Too bad. Owner was a great guy. He might have saved my life by only allowing me to have “two alarm.”

There's a restaurant on the south end of Socorro that serves pretty good chili. I can't remember the name of the place. I grew up in NM and can hardly wait to renew the "New Mexico Chile taste" with huevos rancheros in Deming. Just returned from a trip there, and it does let you know that your "system" needs adjusting....

Will never understand why people buy overpriced chili mixes. There are a small handful ingredients in a good batch of red chili. It is incredibly simple to make just tasting your way to the final product that suits you. Green chili is even simpler.
Red Chile
Meat
Ground chiles (not a spice mix, just the chile). Much better but more work is starting with whole dried chiles.
oregano
garlic
salt
cumin
water or beef/chicken or vegetable stock
and to really take it over the finish line a bit of masa mixed with liquid from the chile to remove clumps and stirred in the last 15 minutes of the cook gives it that perfect earthy taste.

I am not an anarchist, so yes, no beans on a proper pot of red chili.

Naw! NM pintos are the way to go. Refritos for the uninitiated or those who just don't get it.
