Established in 1983, Mountain View Restaurant is a second-generation, family-owned-and-operated business that will make you feel right at home thanks to a staff that treats its guests like family, a comfortable dining room, and, of course, mountain views.

What kind of New Mexican and American specialties do they serve at Mountain View? It begins with favorites like tacos, chile relleno, and burritos, as well as gigantic burgers, chicken dinners, salads, and appetizers.

What's more American than a juicy steak cooked the way you want it? The Mountain View Restaurant has that, too, via their sirloin, New York strip, and ribeye steaks.

In addition to "just" the steak, Mountain View also serves shrimp and steak, steak sandwiches, and a grilled sampler.
