"A great restaurant found in the historic El Rancho hotel. Service was friendly and the food was yummy. I ordered a vegetarian version of the Katherine Hepburn wedge salad with a side of breaded mushrooms from the apps menu. The server was great about changing the salad and cocktails slightly to accommodate our dietary requirements. If you’re staying at the hotel or nearby I would definitely recommend dropping in to enjoy the food, service and history."

"You MUST VISIT Hannah at this amazing bar! She makes not only amazing Margaritas (we tried the House, Prickly Pear and Cadillac margaritas ) but her Old Fashioned cocktails are amazing and she is just as sweet and pleasant as can be! The atmosphere of the bar is so fun with great music and amazing stained glass paintings. Go and enjoy Hannah!"

"Arrived after dark in Gallup and I wanted to get a quick bite to eat. I pulled into the El Rancho Hotel parking lot and then strolled into 49er Lounge. I immediately liked the atmosphere with the jukebox playing country music & a small but social crowd. I ordered the spicy chicken enchiladas and it was absolutely delicious 👍🏼 The modelo was appropriately cold and paired well with the meal."
