I am surprised at this score, because everything else served at Kelly's is generally crap. I just had never had their green chile cheeseburger until now. The large, thick patty (maybe even a steak burger what do I know) and the green chile are the deal makers here. The patty was one of the best I've tasted, and the chopped green chile was hot, plump and still full of flavor though out of season. Kelly's also gets plusses for the open air patio right on Route 66, the cheap IPA, the sweet potato fries, and the cute waitresses (or waiters if you prefer). Most everything else about the burger itself was pretty generic (all the fixings on the side but NO onions?). Always packed, and go ahead and bring your dog.
