About this restaurant

  • Great for craft beers
  • Romantic
  • Good for special occasions
The Sierra Blanca Brewing Co. began in Lincoln County,NM back in 1996 with their Pub 48/Weber's Grill open for 8 years in Ruidoso, NM. Since then, the brewery has expanded up in Moriarty developing more award winning craft beers with their Rio Grande Brewing Co. brand. Now, seven years later, the brew pub concept returns to the same location now as the Rio Grande Grill & Taproom! Enjoy great craft beers, fine wines, favorite appetizers and salads, classic sandwiches, steaks and other delicious faire in our cozy and rustic dining room and bar. Bonus to your visit - we have craft beer to-go either in bottled 6-packs or a 64oz. growler!

    We arrived at our reservation time only to be informed they don’t accept reservations. Not sure where the disconnect between Open Table and Rio Grande is but we were left with the option to either wait 90 minutes for a table or go elsewhere. I checked the FB page for this restaurant, because the hostess claimed this is an ongoing issue and they tried to get Open Table to remove them but there was NO mention of any issue on their FB page, and they post frequently so clearly not very concerned with getting the word out. I’ll never go back!

    This restaurant doesn't even accept open table. We had to wait over an hour to be seated.

    As soon as I said I have a reservation they said “Our table isn’t legit. Sorry. It’s a 2 hour wait” couldn’t even accommodate us.

    First time eating here, and I would highly recommend it. Will definitely go back next time I am in town. Not a real big Craft beer fan, but their Rodeo Cold was delicious

    We were really excited to take our friends from Texas there for a nice evening of good food and beer out on the patio. The table was ready when we arrived so there was no wait which was nice. But the service was slow and she paid little attention to us. We would have to flag her down and she was always rushed. I ordered the trout. It was over cooked and didn’t taste fresh. I took two bites and quit. Our friend ordered the chicken fried steak and the gravy on top was old and greasy. Our waitress was so inattentive that she didn’t even notice we didn’t eat it or ask if the food was ok. Ww were embarrassed! I know Labor Day weekend is hard but better planning needs to take place so that you are ready for the big tourist weekend.

    The experience was out of this world. Pecan Amber brew was the best beer I’ve ever sipped. Outstanding flavor. Thanks Rio Grande!
