Probably my favorite watering hole in this town. Great food! Great Service! You must try the Green or Red Chicken Wings and they make a mean Green Chile Posole!

This place is a classic landmark of Las Cruces NM. One of the best places to celebrate birthdays or just simply hang out with friends and family. Just awesome all the way���

I had a great time and the food is always delicious. Good customer service and welcoming. One of my favorite appetizers is the corked bat (pecan encrusted hatch green chili). If you are a sports fanatic or just want to enjoy a nice lunch or dinner, this is the place to be.

Love the food! Can't believe they have at least about 52 draft beers! Check them out if you haven't already! You won't be disappointed!

ONE OF THE TOP SPORTS BARS IN LAS CRUCES FOR REAL DINING

The Game on Espina near the university is a real nice sports bar for dining. Inside there is a small bar area but the restaurant is broken up into various rooms with very comfortable chairs and furniture. Outside is a sizable outdoor eating and drinking area with lights when it is dark. The Game on Espina DOESN'T SEEM AS STERILE AS THE GAME II OUT ON NORTHRISE.  The service at the Game I have always found to be upper level....quite good. Don't believe anyone who tells you otherwise. This is a clean, comfortable, and friendly place to dine. 

The menu is diverse and features a nice selection of options from burgers, to wings, chicken dishes, salads, soups, nachos, lots of draft beer, quesadillas, chicken and steak wraps, club sandwiches, hot dogs, Philly's, fries, onion rings, steak dinners, steak tampiquenia, meatloaf, cherry and peach cobbler, cheese cake etc. All good stuff. Prices are a bit on the higher side. 

The Game's Home Run Burger and their Corked Bat Burger with the Game's fabulous smoked sweet pepper bacon are among the best burgers in Las Cruces.  Exceptional. The chicken wings are excellent....especially love the special house green chile sauce on the wings. Very hot but so good. I had their southwestern pecan encrusted chicken dish which was also very good. For dining on real food....this is one of the best sports bars. Most of the time when I go to the Game I seem to end up with the wings and burgers. So good.

What to expect if you go: A friendly, comfortable place with good service, a nice selection of food and generally very good food. If things are not right they will make it right. 

Restaurant rating = FOUR-AND-A-QUARTER STARS......meaning, you'll have a very good overall experience.


Will I return? Yes.

The Game is possibly one of the best places to hang out in Las Cruces. Being right across from NMSU, naturally it's where the students and staff like to go. It's also the only Aggie themed sports bar that I know of.
I recommend the green chile wings. Absolutely delicious. And so is the Corked Bat: green chile strips breaded with pecans and served with ranch dressing to dip. Great beer selection, too.

THE TOP SPORTS BAR IN LAS CRUCES FOR REAL DINING. For a complete review of The Game go to the reviews by Mr. Sensitive under "The Game Bar and Grill." You will find a thorough review of The Game there. Just click on "Diner Reviews" under the opinion section. Apparently Urbanspoon exiled that review by Mr. Sensitive because of his comments about certain other "reviewers." So look for it under Diner Reviews or under Mr. Sensitive's reviews dated August 23, 2011.

Either way, MS. DICKERSON'S RESTAURANT IS CLEARLY THE TOP SPORTS BAR (FEATURING REALLY GOOD FOOD) IN THE AREA. DON'T BELIEVE ANYONE WHO TELLS YOU OTHERWISE.

The Sun News Readers Survey for 2010 awarded The Game "the best" in eleven categories. To see how valid this is check my full review under Mr. Sensitive dated August 23, 2011.

The Game is a very nice sports bar/ restaurant featuring very good service and outstanding food. Rate the food overall a B+ to A. The service is very good...B+. The ambiance is very nice...A minus. This is not just a sports bar for the young and jocks. People of all ages will enjoy dining here in their nice dining area or patio. The burgers (Home Run and Corked Bat) are among the best in town with the fabulous smoked sweet pepper bacon. Rate them both A for exceptional. The chicken wings are excellent as well with their special house green chile sauce. Don't pass this up! "A" for wings. The Southwestern pecan encrusted chicken dish is very good also. Rate the food and overall dining experience FIVE STARS. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. (The food however is a little on the high side. Sometimes their web site has a coupon for a couple dollars off certain items!)

>>>>>NOTE: As of 2014-2015 I believe Marci's kitchen has slipped a little and the quality of the food has gone down a little. Still good, but not quite what it was a few years ago. They need to pay attention to this.

BOTTOM LINE: WILL I RETURN? YES.

One of the best places to eat in Las Crcues. The corked bat is a must dry side with your food. Hatch green chili fried with pecans are out of this world.

Outdoor tables with TV's and heaters is perfect for watching NFL. Gets busy and sometimes there's a long wait to get in.
