"The Dancing Jalapeño has friendly service and great food! We had the Taco Burgers, green chili fries, a few drinks and a cotton candy burrito. They were all delicious! Claudio talked with us about all the different food and desert options they had, and helped us make a great decision. His customer service is great! I’d gladly recommend this place to anyone traveling through Grant, NM on Route 66 or I-40. It’s worth the stop!"

"The food and service here was excellent! Our food was made fresh and was very reasonably priced. Owner was so nice and was even willing to make food off the menu and provided free samples. 10/10 would visit again."

"The owners are great people, so patient with my four children and asked what they liked about ice cream and made suggestions. The food was AMAZING, taco burger and tortilla burger had great flavors and hand fried corn tortillas. The fries, again awesome, not from the freezer. The ice cream was exactly what we had been looking for! Unique and great blend of flavors! Cotton candy burritos are a must when you go. We tried the sour apple cotton candy burrito and words cannot describe how delicious it is. I live an hour away and would drive back just to eat here again."

"Fantastic food and service. By far one of the best experiences in small town Grants NM. Brings life back to Route 66. Awesome prices and freshness that can't be beat. I'll be stopping in here every time I'm in the area. Shout out to the owner Claudio for bringing new life to this beautiful area. Piccadilly was A+ some people just don't know a good thing!"
