Restaurant
El Pinto Restaurant is a beloved Albuquerque establishment housed in an old hacienda surrounded by lush gardens. The restaurant, owned by twin brothers Jim and John Thomas, has been serving up family recipes since 1962. In addition to traditional and health-conscious plates, they offer their famous El Pinto Salsa and Green Chile Sauce for home enjoyment. The property can accommodate over 1,200 guests and features sustainability initiatives such as locally-sourced ingredients grown on-site.
We had a great experience sitting at the bar for dinner and drinks, thanks in large part to Natalia. She was attentive, friendly, and really made the evening enjoyable. We tried the margaritas, sampled a few beers, and had dinner.
I’m giving a 5-star review based on our overall experience, especially because of Natalia’s excellent service. That said, I do want to note that the food and drinks felt overpriced. While everything tasted good, the quality didn’t quite match the cost, particularly with the margaritas and steak I had.
Still, we had a great time and would definitely return if we were locals. It’s a nice spot with a welcoming vibe and outstanding service.

El Pinto completely exceeded my expectations. The chili-smothered ribs tasted nothing like I imagined — they were even better. The flavor was bold, smoky, and unforgettable. It left such a strong impression that I’m already looking forward to ordering them again the next time I visit Albuquerque.
Beyond the food, the atmosphere at El Pinto was top-notch — lively yet relaxed, with a warm Southwestern charm. It’s the kind of place that makes you want to come back and try everything on the menu. Whether you’re with friends or enjoying a night out with your partner, it’s an ideal spot to soak in the local flavor. Highly recommended!
Our group of 35 ate dinner here with a 7:00 reservation. Because it was booked by the travel agent, it was a big buffet. It had 2 kinds of chicken enchiladas, rice, beans, southwestern corn, salad. Also chips and yummy salsa on tables. Everything was very good! The restaurant itself was beautiful. Although huge, it was divided into numerous dining rooms for a comfortable dining experience. Servers were attentive and friendly.
The restaurant is as beautiful as it is historic. It opened in 1972 and you can tell it’s a landmark. There’s a huge wall of fame as you enter the door with pictures of everyone from Mick Jagger to Lil Wayne.
It was a great day so we sat outside and it was fantastic, even with the honey bees circling for a shot at some of that delicious honey.
The food was great and the beans were well flavored. I mean the beans have to be great at a restaurant called El Pinto right? I had the combo plate #1 and my girl had the ribs. Both were delicious. Even the chips and salsa at the beginning was on point and the salsa had a nice kick.
The staff was super friendly and explained what I didn’t understand which was what’s the difference between mild and hot 🔥
El Toro Pinto in Albuquerque, NM is an absolute must-visit! The food, atmosphere, and service were all excellent. Every dish was bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. From the appetizers to the main courses, everything tasted fresh and authentic. The staff was warm, attentive, and made us feel right at home. The restaurant itself has a charming vibe — perfect for a relaxing meal or special night out. El Toro Pinto is a true gem that delivers an unforgettable dining experience.
Good food, very large restaurant with plenty of patio seating, pet friendly, and excellent service.
The aesthetic is casual and comfortable, but lovely. The food feels like comfort food to me, and we enjoyed our meals and our time at El Pinto during a recent visit to Albuquerque.
Sooooo good. We sat outside. It was a little chilly, but they turned the heater on. This place was beautiful. The staff were friendly and the atmosphere was, let's put it this way, you want to take someone on a first date? Take them here. It was big, open and very well maintained. There is a kitty that stopped by and said hi to me. Pop tart was the kitties name. And Pop Tart was sooooooo sweet. Our waiter was a little "distracted" but I'm not one to know what the duties of a waiter are and I do not hold that against them. He was attentive enough. The food was very tasty and a great choice for our trip back from Santa Fe. This was a bit farther from our Airbnb but sooooo worth the drive. You could hear what I think was a wedding party in another section of the restaurant (this place was big!) there was nothing disturbing about it. You could hear it but it wasn't "loud". I really liked this place and would highly recommend it.
This place is in such a beautiful location! The atmosphere is incredible! The staff is super friendly! The food was delicious especially the NM green chilies! The margaritas were great too! The prices were on the higher end. There is no better spot to enjoy a good drink, good food, and enjoy family and friends!

Organic restaurant
The Grove Cafe & Market is a popular American eatery that has been serving delicious breakfast and lunch dishes since 2006. Located on an up-and-coming stretch of Route 66 in Albuquerque, it offers a relaxed and airy atmosphere for diners to enjoy their meals. The cafe focuses on using high-quality, organic, and locally sourced ingredients, including sustainable meats from local purveyors. Their menu features a variety of delightful dishes such as salads, sandwiches, and sweet treats.
We stopped by on a Sunday at about 1245. The restaurant was crowded but we got through the line to order our food in 7-8 minutes, had no problem finding a table for two and the food came in around 10 minutes. I had the breakfast burrito—a nice burrito, not too spicy and my wife had the sweet potato hash which she liked a lot. Somewhat expensive but a very enjoyable lunch.
Steve H — Google review
Still one of my favorites. I've been a grove customer since day one and I still love it. The food is great but very there early before the rush! And I love the coffee with a yummy pastry.
Wonderful all around! All the workers were very nice and helpful! love the warm, inviting atmosphere! We got to sit at the table that Walt sat at in breaking bad that was cool!
The avocado toast was incredible! Had a nice kick of spice as well as sweetness from the pickled onions. the hot vanilla latte was perfectly sweet and strong. the burrito was devoured by my husband needless to say he loved it! In his words “one of the best burritos I’ve ever had”. No complaints! Definitely a 10/10 spot.
We came around 11am and it was a full parking lot but they still had tables available and it was very quick getting through the line and getting our food
Whenever I go to Albuquerque, especially around breakfast or lunchtime, I have to go to the Grove. The food is so fresh. The service is great. The atmosphere is great too, but sometimes it can feel a bit cold, especially with some of the chairs that are firm, wonderful selection, wonderful food, wonderful continuity. An options
Food was great. Don't be scared off from a crowd, they do a great job getting people through fairly quickly and have more seating than you first think. Really enjoyed it, highly recommend.
NM Avocado Toast was delicious! Smashed avocado, crema, serano chilie, cilantro, pickled red onion, sunflower sprouts, queso fresco, sunny side up egg, on a toasted whole wheat bread - bread was toasted a bit much, tuff to cut, but in all a very tasty, satisfying dish. Yummm.
Nm Burrito - made to order, I chose egg, green chilie (there was NO green chilie); bacon (crisp, wasn't crisp, tiny squares)! Tiny potatoes that looked like tiny slices of sausage! (Skin on),no flavor; cheese (white ?), on the side: cremè frachè, (delicious), tomato jalapeño salsa, tasted like they left out the jalapeño; all in a toasted tortilla which was pretty okay.
What I like and appreciate is the effort to prepare foods using organic foods from locally sourced NM Farmers; That's a big Plus!
The coffee, latès and teas are excellent. Try the Grove Mimosa and bakery items.
Two items that made the rating 4 not 5:
Person picking up dishes, clearing tables made noises with the plates, etc. That made the place sound like A WAR ZONE! No fun for those who experience ptsd.
And Two: The music choices, it's a grove, not home of a certain night spot on the sunset strip;
It was so loud - unable to carry a conversation! There is patio seating if you enjoy 98° temps.
The croque madame, sweet potato hash & orange juice were delightful! I love the retail selection & love plants. It was too chilly to sit outside but the patio is sweet. Highly recommend this spot!
Tasty food yet not a place to go if you’re on a hurry.
There was a line I was aware it would take them some time to get my sandwich done but then I saw them giving three boxes of food to someone that went in after me. The male cashier didn’t enjoyed me questioning why my one sandwich wasn’t ready…

Native American restaurant
Indian Pueblo Kitchen is a dining establishment located within the Indian Pueblo Cultural Center in Albuquerque. It offers a casual dining experience with a focus on Native-inspired and New Mexico cuisine. The restaurant celebrates the culinary traditions of New Mexico's 19 pueblos, each being a sovereign nation.
We stopped in after visiting the museum. We were taken right to a table, and it was bustling around 1pm. Our waitress was super kind and attentive. I ordered the Taste of the Pueblos, which comes with a cup each of Red Chile beef stew, Green Chile pork stew and a Vegetable soup. And then a mini blue corn muffin, slice of Pueblo bread and a corn tortilla. My husband got the Blue Corn enchiladas and got the shredded lamb in them. It came with beans and calabacitas. For dessert we ordered the Pueblo pies, peach and pumpkin.
We loved everything about the cafe and plan on coming regularly.
Marina S — Google review
This was a wonderful experience. The fried bread was so good. I got the taco and she got the salad. The star of the show was the front end greeter. She was friendly, customer focused and the perfect "face" of the restaurant. The food was fresh and very tasty. The staff moved like they were in a dance. Our server was a little busy but friendly and as attentive as she could be. This is not a slam, I could see what she was doing and could clearly see she was giving it her all. I'm very glad we went here on our last night in NM. This was some of the best food we had in NM and I would go here again if ever back. Do not leave without trying the fried bread. What a wonderful creation!
We had a great lunch experience at Indian Pueblo Kitchen. Our server was so kind and helpful. He recommended excellent dishes. We loved the fried pickles, loaded fries, elk chili, Indian taco and blue corn enchiladas. The green chili sauce was amazing! I recommend trying the Zia sodas. The prickly pear cactus was our favorite. It reminds me of a light fruit punch.
The Indian Pueblo Kitchen is connected to the Indian Pueblo Cultural Community Center. The restaurant deserves the high ratings, and it was a privilege to taste the Pueblan inspired dishes.
We started with the Fried Kool Aid Pickles which were both unique and addictive. I had the Taste of the Pueblos dish which came with three stews (green chili pork, red chili beef, and vegetable) and breads. Although all three stews were good, the red chili beef stew was my favorite of the three. My spouse chose the Indian Taco. The food was fantastic and the portions were generous. I ordered a Zia Sandia Watermelon soda to drink which was also fantastic.
We came at noon, and although the restaurant was busy, we were seated immediately. We noticed that there was a waiting line when we left an hour later.
We stopped in for lunch as a break in our time at the Cultural Center. However. There is a separate entrance for the public who are not visiting the Cultural Center.
There is a large parking lot behind the Cultural Center.
I am in town for work and wanted authentic food! After a quick Google search I was informed that there is a restaurant inside the museum that has delicious food and decided to check in! I highly recommend. I did visit on National Indigenous Day so I had to wait about an hour for a table but so worth it. I was adventurous and got the kool-aid fried pickles, a New Mexican soda and the blue corn enchiladas! Delicious!
Do you want to be full for the whole day? Do you want a breakfast burrito the size of a forearm? Do you want blue pancakes? Definitely give this place a look! It’s a fun time. The food is really good and we didn’t have to wait!
Stopped at Indian Pueblo Kitchen in Albuquerque for lunch and ordered an Indian taco. It took an hour and a half to get my food, which was surprising since the restaurant wasn’t busy. When it finally arrived, it was just “okay” tasted like a mix of ingredients with little flavor, even with the added chilies. Definitely could use more spice. Other tables seemed to be experiencing the same long wait.
We went to Albuquerque from Dallas, TX for the Hot Air Balloon Festival 3 weeks ago. Before heading home I really wanted to try authentic native food. This restaurant came up amd ot didn't disappoint! We did find out the takeout menu only had 2 options but the dine in menu had much more to choose from. We ordered the fry bread taco and the blue corn chicken enchiladas, cherry Pueblo pie and the bottled soda. Everything was so yummy amd brought such joy to enjoy. Thank you for being good to us. I cant wait to come back!

Southwestern restaurant (US)
Church Street Cafe is a beloved spot in Old Town Albuquerque, known for its authentic Southwestern dishes like chile rellenos and carne adovada. The traditional adobe eatery offers a charming atmosphere with alfresco dining in a lovely courtyard adorned with sweet grapes and flowers. Guests can also enjoy live classical and flamenco guitar music while savoring the buttery guacamole appetizer and tender carne asada main.
Food and service were great. We sat at the outdoor patio in the back as we had our small dog with us. They were kind enough to bring a small bowl of water for our dog! I ordered the pork adovada, and my wife opted for the beef taco salad. Both dishes were absolutely delicious! Plus we were served warm sopapillas with honey! Heaven! The red and green chile served on the side were out if this world. Highly recommended!

The only thing which attracted me was the cactus planted outside.
The food was awful, especially the burrito. The source was overwhelmingly salty and spicy, left no taste for the meat or whatever inside. Taco was ok, side dish spinach was very very salty.
Short staffed. There were two waiter serving the entire hall (more than 15 tables). Drinks were never refilled, we were also not provided the desert until we asked for it.
Overall unpleasant experience. Feel more like a tourist trap.
Beautiful restaurant with both indoors and outdoors seating. I ordered the Reuben with potato salad and I wish the marble rye was more toasted and that the thousand island sauce wasn’t served on the side but rather spread on the bread already. The host (man w/ glasses) and server were super friendly and I had a great time overall. I would come back to try their breakfast menu in the future!
Don’t let the entrance fool you - the place is really huge inside! There was a 20min wait on a Friday afternoon. It’s in the middle of Old Town plaza so it’s a bit of a tourist trap. The court yard inside and the decor is really beautiful. However, the laughs and giggles stopped there when it came to the food. We got the traditional chile rellano and southwestern barbecue chicken salad. The food was stale, the salad on the rellano entree tasted off and the whole entree felt like it was heated in a microwave. The chile rellano was almost cold and seemed to have been prepared a while ago and just reheated. The bbq salad was okay but the chicken pieces in it were overcooked and chewy. I wanted to try new mexican cuisine but the food was damn terrible. The server also forgot to give spinach in the entree and we had to chase him for that to be changed. I would not recommend this place to anyone. This is probably among the worst bites of food I’ve had. I had to leave almost all of entree as it was so bad.
Response to the reply: The salad we ordered was **Southwestern grilled fajita salad. Thank you for mentioning it.
I often eat southwest style mexican food. I ordered the conbination plate. This, by far, is 2nd to the worst I have had. The rice, beans, enchilada, chile relleno, and tamale were all dried out. Basically, the food was old, not fresh to any extent. The rice was hard, clumped, and tasteless. The masa was flavorless without any resemblance to a true masa. I took one bite of everything-which was more than enough. An employee, at the resort where we stayed, recommended this place who was at our resort. I don't know if they just had a bad day or they just decided to give us the left overs from two days earlier. Our server was very nice.
Great food and historic building! Ask to sit on the patio (indoors), which has cute tile (not pictured). We enjoyed the sopapillas
It's fine. The food is solid, but it's overpriced and not as good as other places in the wider area. The reason you'd come here is because it's in a touristy area and has the local favorites. It serves its purpose.
After reading about this place and hearing how great it is thought would try it. Well, don't believe the hype. It is very overpriced for what you get. Was very busy but that did not surprise because of the reviews. Finally got seated at a table outside in a corner. Waiter came and took order and it took forever to get order after inquiring about it. Not sure if it was the waiter or just the kitchen staff. Food came out and was nothing to justify the wait. The bread was brought after the meal, not before. Could not get refills on drinks, not sure if that was because they were non alcoholic, because those alcoholic drinks seem to come quickly. Ordered chips and salsa and some of the chips were not even completely cooked. Needless to say if you are looking for some good SW food just keep looking. I am sure there are a lot better options.

Saturday. 5/17/2025 @ 6:45PM. Party of two.
1st time as Guests to this "Old Town District" location of D.H. Lescombes restaurant in Albuquerque (NM).
NOT difficult to locate this eatery while driving in traffic. Parking, this evening, was available and well maintained.
Reception Staff was Professional and Courteous. Seated us right at the Reservation time, too! Not much space in the Waiting Area, tho'.
Our Super Server, "Stephanie", was menu-knowledgeable, attentive and even friendly! We both enjoyed her personality and her customer service skillset! We, also, got visited by two different Managers during our meal, asking if we were enjoying our visit to DHL. Impressive! 👌🏼
We ordered the much talked about Bistro Burger and the (*NEW*) Homemade Lasagna! BOTH menu items were as delicious as they looked! We, also, tried a sampling of their Wine of the Day, "6•3•1• Signature Cab-Sangio". Niiice!👌🏼
Very enjoyable outing at this D. H. Lescombes Winery & Bistro!
Five Stars!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
BTW..there was a *LIVE* Band performing on the venue's westside Outdoor Dining Section that sounded like FUN!🎵🎤

We just finished the Old town wineries and thought we would stop by Lecombes on the way back to the highway. We are sitting outside. It is a bit warm but there is a slight breeze blowing. The facility, and patio, are very nice. Our server Samantha is great and she got right to us. I am trying the Signature Red flight and my wife is trying the St Clair Port. Trying the Potstickers. Tried the Cab, Merlot and Cab-Sangio. All were good and I found no faults. This is a tasting room and the actual winery is in Deming, NM. The Potstickers were good but spicy and my wife enjoyed the desserts. They are all gluten free.
We celebrated a milestone wedding anniversary here and very happy we did. The pork chop and trout entrees were delicious and cooked perfectly. Both proteins are often overcooked and dry but these were expertly prepared. The sides were equally delicious -
Creamy mash potatoes and crisp yet tender broccolini. Everything was seasoned properly. We had two flights and enjoyed all 7 wines. The team gifted us a chocolate torte with ice cream dessert to help us celebrate. It was a perfect sweet ending to a lovey meal. Shout out to our fabulous server, Torrey. Thank you for a memorable meal!
Located in a cute area with plenty of parking. The Signature Nosh (charcuterie) was really good and just enough for 4 adults to share. Although we did have to ration everything since there were only 4 of each cracker type. Lol The Jalapeno Bacon Wrapped Shrimp was delicious and the mandarin sauce made it amazing ! The SW Meatloaf had great flavor. Server was a little meh as he wasn't very attentive and got one of the items wrong so they had to redo it which kinda threw off the dinner vibe. It was an extremely busy Friday night and maybe he was new but at least he was very nice and polite and was trying! Great experience all together!
Very nice experience and excellent food. I recommend the meatloaf… comes with mash potatoes and broccolini. Try the different wines (we like the Kiva). They allow you to try multiple ones. … excellent service with Kat M. Ask for her when you come in. And did I mention how great tasting the meatloaf was.
With reservations for a large group of 14 we were promptly seated during peak supper time. Our server Troy ? was great, very personable and attentive. Everyone got there food as ordered and was delicious. Very nice atmosphere without being upscale stuffy. Highly recommend
Went there for lunch, the day before our Anniversary. I got the lunch portion of their
Weiner Schnitzel . It came with mashed golden potatoes and vegetables. The potatoes and the Schnitzel were outstanding
The chef walked around and was personal.
The waitress checked on a lot, making the atmosphere warm.
What an excellent place for wine and delicious food! I was impressed by the staff and the food. The staff was so friendly and Ben, our server, did an excellent job serving us and providing us with great recommendations. I loved that the food options were paired with a recommended wine choice. I got a wine flight that aligned with my dinner choice and it was excellent. I chose the Pasta New Mexico for dinner and it was incredible! It was so delicious and DID pair well with my heritage flight of wine. Great aesthetics in the restaurant. I loved the art and decor around the restaurant as well. All in all, it was so great and I highly recommend it!

Farm & Table is a charming restaurant nestled in Albuquerque's North Valley, offering a warm and inviting ambiance with Southwestern decor. The menu features upscale, regionally inspired cuisine crafted from locally sourced and seasonal ingredients. Emphasizing community collaboration, the culinary team partners with local farmers, grocers, and artisans to create delectable dishes showcasing farm-fresh vegetables, grass-fed meats, artisanal cheeses, and pure honey.
Very good farm to table concept that is well done! The special soup of the day was our favorite and the different salsas were fun to try! The beets were very well tasty. The barramundi was our favorite main. The chicken was a little drier than we would’ve liked but the sides for it were very good.
Paul C — Google review
The highlight of the dinner was the attentive and knowledgeable service.
The food was a mix of fresh, locally sourced ingredients, but at times, the essence or true flavour profile of these beautiful ingredients got lost when a dish becomes too complicated, too many ingredients piled on top of each other fighting for their profile to survive.
The Duo of Pork was a perfect example of it. The roasted pork was tender with a delicious hint of smoke; the pile of shredded pork with mole was a loss opportunity to allow the products to shine.
The tortilla that came with it: was a very heavy, ultra rich combination of lard and cream, leaving us wishing for a real corn tortilla aroma and taste.
The ice cream is excellent, and the Rhubarb/cherry sorbet contained a painful amount of sugar that completely killed the enjoyment of having something cold.
One thing that is absolutely needed is an anti flies battery-operated tabletop fan, we had to ask for one, for it became a non-stop battle trying to keep them off your food.
We sat on the patio and the chairs each had blankets which was nice. Many mosquitos but they had fans on each table to help. We shared a bottle of wine, tapas, and the half fried chicken which was $225 with tip. The server was nice and knowledgeable but seemed to have one too many tables. Food was good and of course all or mostly all locally sourced
Saw this restaurant on Resy and it looked promising. It had great reviews and their concept was right up my alley. I really wanted to like their food, I honestly did, but each dish fell flatter and flatter. To start, their duck fat fried tortillas tasted stale and the salsas/sauces left a lot to be desired. The runner dropping off the food couldn't tell us which sauces were spicy. He was dropping off food and didn't know one dish from another.
As for the soup, one server said it was corn, another said it was squash. The "special" was prime rib- the cut was terrible, I could barely eat the meat, it was laden with fat and the sauce/seasoning was not tasty. It was tolerable- for $68. Same with the fried chicken. Overpriced and under delivered.
The dessert was pricey for what it was. The German cake was tasty (also vegan) and the ice cream was decent. I will be honest and say we were tempted to go elsewhere for dessert because the whole exprience left much to be desired. I'm thankful AMEX does a $100 credit, otherwise this at full price was definitely NOT worth it. Look elsewhere.
I’ve been here once for dinner and really enjoyed it. We got our drinks first and had the chance to walk around the farm before sitting down for a delicious meal. The staff did a great job explaining the ingredients and creating a warm, welcoming atmosphere. They were even attentive about keeping the flies away when we were seated outside. Definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting Albuquerque.
My friend and I had a beautiful experience at Farm & Table. We ate outside. Our server was attentive, respectfully responsive to dietary restrictions. We ordered Bison short ribs and fried chicken as our entrees. We also ordered a salad and a charcuterie plate. My only criticism is that I was bit excessively by mosquitoes. I did not know that the restaurant was close to a river. Other than my mosquito bites, everything was great. The portion sizes were ample. Our vegan German chocolate cake was delicious.
Ordered the mushroom mélange as an appetizer and the lotus farm fried chicken and duo of pork as entrees. The mushroom mélange had delicious crunchy tempura batter which created lots of interesting textures to the dish. The five spice fried chicken dish was so delicious, juicy tender meat—especially with the dipping sauce. It was a bit on the saltier side though. The duo of pork had a smoky spice that was very hearty and earthy. Server did attempt to bring us drinks we did not order a few times, but otherwise very friendly staff. The garden component is beautiful, great place to stroll after an evening meal. Such a killer spot for a sunset. Pricey but would come back here for special occasions!
My partner and I had the Duck Fat-fried Tortilla Chips & Salsas, Lotus Farms Fried Chicken, and Bison Short Rib. The presentation was average for a farm-to-table or locally-sourced restaurant. Flavoring in the dishes could have a little more vibrancy.
Landra was a friendly, helpful, and attentive waitress. This personable interaction elevated the dining experience!
The atmosphere was what mainly contributed to the dining experience.
To the persons who want to have a social gathering, Farm & Table can sustain this for groups of people. To the persons who are there for the food, Farm & Table still seems in its infancy compared to similar restaurants. I may be ignorant of Albuquerque’s caliber of restaurant standards and culture when it comes to food quality, but from a nationally-wide level, Farm & Table is still seems early on its journey in maturing into a finer place of food.

Coffee shop
Black Mesa Coffee Co is a charming coffee stand located in a crafty shopping venue. Visitors can indulge in delicious food while exploring the stalls. The airport location offers excellent coffee and quick service with a smile, making it a convenient stop for travelers. Guests can savor items like the bacon breakfast croissant and iced white chocolate mocha, although some find the prices to be on the higher side for airport fare.
Josiah provided excellent customer service! He was very professional and welcoming and explained the various types of coffee they had. He even described the different notes each coffee had to help me decide. The cold brew coffee was very good. Bold but not too strong and not charred like "Char Bucks." Thank you, Josiah! We will stop by again. 🙂

They uh, they cut my burrito in half. I don't know how you're supposed to eat a burrito like that. The burrito itself tasted okay, but they also gave me free grapes that were slightly moldy.
The atmosphere is nothing special but it is large, the service was a bit confusing. But the reason for the 5 stars is that the specialty coffee in bags is AMAZING. I've tried the chocolate pinion, the biscochitto, and pinon. Talk about flavor! Ground or whole bean, take a taste of the land of enchantment home. I always stock up on it for myself and for gifts. The flavored coffee is perfect, hot or iced. You never know what's going to be in stock but it's sure to be delicious!
Only once did they have no specialty flavors, only regular packages. It was good but their flavored coffees are exceptional.
Was at the airport around 7:30 and no other store to get a drink (coffee). Black mesa had gate open and lights on. The employee said he was closing and could only offer items on the shelves. The website showing the they are open until 8:30. There is no other option beyond security to get any type of food or drink. Please share this review with airport personnel. I’m sure there are other people who feel the same. Thx.
So, morning coffee is fantastic. This is a little place in the airport and it is priced like everything else at the airport. However, the coffee is delicious. I had the rocky mountain latte, which was delicious.
They have non-dairy options, and a wide selection of coffees. The barista was kind and attentive. However, there was a male employee who made a comment about another customer that seemed out of character since he just turned his back to walk away. That is the only reason for dinging them a star.
Its an airport ambiance, it's pretty normal.
It was 7:45pm and all of the lights are on, doors/gate open completely and the employees told me they were closed although they appear to be standing around. I am at the airport waiting for my daughter to arrive and there is no place before security to grab a snack or cup of coffee while waiting. The hours indicate that they are open until 8:30 and they refuse to serve me. Close the gate or change the hours if you close early. Why have a coffee shop before security, if the employees refuse customers?
Black Mesa Coffee co was pretty good. The bacon breakfast croissant had good flavor and the croissant was nice and flaky. As far as airport food is concerned, it was good and I would stop here again, but it wasn't anything over the top. My biggest complaint was the cost. $14+ feels like a lot even for airport food, but other than that, it was good.
I also ordered the iced white chocolate moca which was good as well. No complaints, but also nothing special.
Traveling back from home state, grabbed a breakfast burrito looking forward to one last taste of green chili. The most bland, flavorless burrito I've had in a long time. No green chili or cheese as advertised. Just tasteless egg and potato.

Vietnamese restaurant
Saigon City Restaurant is a sharp eatery that serves traditional rice and noodle dishes, as well as banh mi sandwiches. Vietnamese cuisine can be hit or miss, but this place is conveniently located within walking distance of the hotel. The pho soup is exceptional, bursting with flavor and accompanied by fresh garnishes. They even offer clay pot dishes, which are not commonly found in other Vietnamese restaurants.
The chicken wings are so good and a must have. It’s so flavorful. Outside is crispy and inside is tender, with the stir-fried pepper and onion, so well-mixed together! The noodle soup is so flavorful too! Definitely a gem not to miss!!!

My wife and I had lunch here. Both the noodle soup with seafood and her crispy noodle dish were very good. Service was quick, atmosphere open and clean and prices fair. Great stop and will be back.
This place is starting to become my favorite spot and probably only place I will come to and bring friends who visit from out of town.
After enjoying many years of living in Denver and Houston’s Asian food scene, I moved back to have a very limited selection.
It took me almost two years, and I’ve narrowed down my choices to three but recently I’ve exclusively now call this my home for pho (very good, on the sweet side tho) and bun Bo hue (easily the best IMO, as good or better than famous ones from Denver/HTX).
Meats are juicy and tender, no odd odors (fridge smells or just old) and here they provide a healthy amount of veggies and herbs.
There are small details that I appreciate like the pho noodle’s firmness, not being stuck together in a ball and being long not broken.
The vermicelli in the bun Bo hue was also a desirable fineness and texture. Soft but not overcooked and unbroken long noodles.
The ambience and decor could easily fit a higher dining Vietnamese type place in a bigger city.
There is a real talented cook/chef back there who pays close attention to detail and can cook.
Ordered P10, Pho Dac Biet. Portion size not as big as I thought for the price and was slightly disappointed with the lack of variety of meats usually seen in combination pho, would’ve liked more tripe and tendon. Still a solid pho. Clean store environment with nice air conditioning and lots of parking outside.
This hidden gem serves some the best Vietnamese food I've tasted. Its priced very reasonable. There were three of us on our party. One of my dinner companions and I had the bun combo. My other companion had curry bowl. We all love the food. We received prompt and friendly service.
The food and service is great! The food is delicious! I highly recommend the chicken curry or the pork bún bowl. The spring rolls as an appetizer were fresh and tasty as well! The service was quick and the servers are very nice.
Wow! Delicious, sweeter broth, pairs great if you like spicy pho.
Excellent service, perfect for a family gathering or romantic meal (which my wife and I enjoy).
July 2025 menu attached, we will be back!
This is an excellent vietnamese restaurant and one of the better ones in Albuquerque. I've not had anything from here that I didn't think was delicious. The pho is great with a well seasoned and developed broth. All the appetizers are delicious, but I highly recommend the chicken wings. The flavor just smacks you in the mouth in a good way. Some of the best wings I've had anywhere.
The service here is great too, they really want you to enjoy the food and will make adjustments to ensure you're happy with your dining experience with them.
This is a top notch place to get food, you won't be sorry for trying this restaurant

Annie’s Soup Kitchen - Albuquerque, NM
I recently visited Annie’s Soup Kitchen, and it was an experience that exceeded my expectations. The recommendation came from a friend who had lived in Albuquerque for many years, and I’m glad I took their advice—it was spot on!
I tried the crêpes and a burrito, and both were absolutely delicious. The crêpes were light, perfectly cooked, and filled with a delightful mix that struck just the right balance of flavors. The burrito was hearty and satisfying, with a great blend of ingredients that showcased the restaurant’s focus on fresh, quality food.
Beyond the food, the atmosphere of Annie’s Soup Kitchen made the visit even more enjoyable. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, creating a welcoming vibe from the moment I walked in. They made sure to check in and offer recommendations, making me feel like a valued guest.
Price-wise, Annie’s Soup Kitchen offers excellent value. The portions are generous, the quality is high, and you walk away feeling like you’ve truly gotten your money’s worth. It’s the kind of place that you could visit regularly without breaking the bank.
I’ll definitely make a point to revisit Annie’s Soup Kitchen next time I’m in New Mexico. It’s a great spot for a relaxed meal, and I can see why it has a loyal following. Highly recommended for anyone looking to enjoy delicious food with friendly service!

Annie's Soup Kitchen is a quaint, quiet restaurant with good food and good service. I like the Green Chili Chicken Quiche with a blueberry muffin. I added a side of potatoes the last time and it was a good meal. If you want a good meal at a reasonable price. I have always enjoyed Annie's.
Love this restaurant! Delicious food, outstanding service. Comfortable, welcoming atmosphere. Blackberry crepes are soooo good! Huevos Rancheros was yummy. Had Christmas chili, both were delicious!!
Cozy, cottage-core restaurant. The food here is made with LOVE!
It's decorated with cute vintage things, makes you feel like you're at grandma's. A lot of the people who come here are regulars and have known each other and the staff for years. This is a local hidden gem, don't skip it!
Very good food. I was hoping for more soup given the name but it's a very good homestyle restaurant. And great food for lunch or breakfast. Great French onion soup and omelettes.
We are definitely fans of this little gem. We weren't quite certain what to expect from the name and the very humble and hidden entrance. What we found just the other side of the doors was a charmingly old-fashioned restaurant space complete with pink tablecloths, floral carpets, and lovingly hand-painted art on the walls. It was such a homey space that in all honesty, the dining room reminded me less of being in a restaurant and more of suppers at the homes of my aunts or grandmothers when I was little. The atmosphere of homeyness was continued by the lovely server who used endearments like "sweetie" and "hon" rather than the colder and more formal "ma'am" or "sir" that I've become used to in dining.
I'm not sure how we managed it, but Raz had The Gonzo, I had French Onion Soup, and we split a half-order of Blackberry Crepes for dessert. It was a pretty awesome brunch, but the definite star of the meal was dessert. The blackberry compote was sweet and tart and bursting with flavor, while the sweetened cream cheese inside was just plain decadent. We would love to come back and try more of the menu, though that can be difficult for a dedicated night-owl like me since it's on the other side of town and closes by 2 pm.
Great experience....the AVOCADO & BACON OMELET was yummy. Got the house made bread toasted & served with homemade jam. Our table shared BLACKBERRY CREPES....oh my...good thing I don't live nearby or I'd be snarfing those down on a regular basis.
Ordered the avocado bacon omelet and the Quiche Lorraine. The house made bread was dense and tasty, reminded me of my mom’s homemade bread :) the zucchini bread was wonderful as well. Loved the atmosphere and staff were all very friendly and patient.

The ice for the drinks is perfect including the glass itself it has small indentations for your fingers. The food was actually hot and the categories for spice levels are correct. If it says it’s hot believe it, the portions are nice you do get your moneys worth. The best thing to get is the mango sticky rice it’s incredible.

The yellow curry was fragrant and delicious, though the potatoes could have been cooked a bit longer—they were still a bit crunchy and hard to eat. The pad Thai had a nice sweetness, and I loved the chewy texture of the noodles. Service was attentive and friendly, would come back to try more items on the menu!
Today I was so excited to share a good Thai restaurant with my boyfriend who had not tried this place. I wanted the yellow curry and remembered it was great a few years ago. Well today my experience was not that great. Their menu specials looked great so we tried the shrimp egg rolls. There was a little meat and full of veggies. They were crispy at the ends but towards the middle it was cold and soggy.
I ordered the yellow curry. The soup was very watery and my potatoes were so hard and uncooked in the middle I had to send it back to hopefully get them soft and edible but unfortunately it came back still uncooked so I ended up asking to switch my order to the ThaI fried rice. It was good and had a good flavor. My boyfriend ordered a veggie plate with brown rice. The rice looked Kurt like my white rice died purple with some grai rice thrown in. He liked his dish.
The thai tea was very good. We both would rate our food at a 6 at best. I dont know I guess profit over quality is what is happening now. It was not worth what we paid and the veggie plate was quite small. Both my dishes were a decent size. I don't think I'll be back and that's a bummer.
Server was nice and food came out fast.
This place slaps!!! It’s amazing, my girlfriend and I have been here 3 times now and it’s our favorite Thai place, she loves the papaya salad and I love the spicy spaghetti. And the egg rolls are actually really good, every place I order egg rolls at (because I love them) seem to taste bad. But THESE egg rolls… are amazing! And the veggie rolls are also very good with the peanut sauce! I love this place, chill servers, decent prices!
My favorite curry noodle soup in the city. Reminds me of a dish I used to eat. It's so rich, creamy, and delicious! The consistency each time I order it is always on point! Would definitely recommend this dish ☺️
I’m normally super pumped to get take out from here but I’m not sure what was going on this evening. Ordered two different chicken dishes we normally enjoy but for some reason it was cut up chicken nuggets?! Not impressed
Luckily the fried rice was still tasty but I would never have spent 17 dollars on cut up frozen chicken nuggets.
Highly disappointed
I ordered food to-go because mango sticky rice is not an option on DoorDash. Yes I tipped in advance. Big mistake! When I get there I looked in the bag and asked the lady at the desk if that was it. I noticed for the price of one entree and a desert, the amount was very light. She didn’t ask if there was something wrong or if I thought I was missing something. I said ok and left. When I got back to sit and eat it did not look appealing. I bought the pineapple chicken and it tasted like FROZEN TYSON FRIED CHICKEN that was heated up and the DRIZZLED a small amount of their sauce on. Honestly the sauce was all under the chicken as you can see. Pretty this sauce. Even the amount of the white rice was tiny.
The sticky mango rice was a toddler portion. The rice was very firm.
I feel I would have been better off going with a fast food meal option than paying double or more the amount without getting a drink.
Amazing Experience! Me & My husband pass by this pace often and have always wanted to drop in. We decided YES! 🙌🏽 and we are glad we did. The service is amazing, the vibe fit aesthetic and was just what we needed! I had the spare ribs, rich in flavor and tender. Husband had spicy shrimp #51 which was very scrumptious! They have an option of spice level which was very refreshing! Check It Out!

If you're looking for the best pho in town, Pho Linh is a must-visit! This cozy restaurant offers a wide variety of pho made with fresh, high-quality ingredients. I had the Spicy Beef Noodle Soup (#23), and it was fantastic—the broth was rich and aromatic, while the meat was perfectly tender. The fresh herbs and bean sprouts added a delightful crunch to the dish. The portion sizes are generous, ensuring you feel satisfied without being overly full. The service is excellent, with attentive staff always ready to assist. The prices are reasonable given the quality of the food. If you’re craving delicious pho, Pho Linh is the place to go! I'm eager to try more dishes and highly recommend it!
The food was absolutely delicious here. Perfect. Kind of comfort food. It's not a fancy place nor does it need to be, but it's warm inside and inviting. The people were nice and the service was great. I will be back.
Pictured is the combination rice vermicelli bowl (#46) with grilled pork. Beloved local spot, busy on weekends—very attentive service as well. Food was delicious—I loved the pork and egg rolls, good portion size for price as well. Would definitely come back to try more dishes on the menu!
First visit, for lunch. Being so hot, we passed on the phơ. I enjoyed #61 mixed vegetables & shrimp with rice and curry. The curry was the sweeter, coconut milk type with a hint of spice. Also #64 flat rice noodles with grilled chicken in a slightly sweet sauce, like chow fun. Rightly delicious, thumbs up. Only knock is the pieces of 'baby corn' because they're always canned and taste like preservative chemicals, same as anywhere. Happy to return and tour the menu more! A couple photos of menu to show current prices...
Super yummy as usual! Friendly family ran restaurant. Avocado shake and beef vermicelli - always a good choice! Highly recommended!
My go to Pho place, it's fantastic!!!🤤 I'm particularly fond of the #24 the spicy lemongrass broth is delish, I modify mine a bit with only rare thin steak as well as the thin rice noodles. 🍜 😋 We also got #25 the beef broth is so flavorful and was the perfect meal on a cold winter night. I can't leave without having an Avocado shake, so good🫶
True Vietnamese cuisine with many many options. We had a large group and they were very accommodating. Food came out fast, both pho and vermicelli dishes. Apertizers and drinks were fresh and customized woth bubba.

Bike in Coffee is one of my favorite places in town. A great atmosphere, food, and often live music. I enjoy biking here off of the Bosque trail for a coffee and some rest before getting back onto my journey. Other times info biking just to go and spend a few hours reading.
They have a gorgeous farm that ones can visit.
This place is always filled with other bikers and hikers and they has such a great vibe.
We recently hosted my husband's birthday here and it was great. We ordered ahead 15 burritos and they were ready when we got there and they tapped off a corner area for our group. We and our friends also brought along our pups for the event. This place is very dog friendly and they all had a blast as well.
First visit here on a very hot day but the shady , cool spots to eat, drink and relax are lively. My daughter biked and I met her there. Beautiful grounds! Parking is $5 on weekends, a bit scarce perhaps.
Had the Caprese salad with homegrown tomatoes- delicious! They ran put of pastor meat( noon), but fish tacos were small and tasty. Also ate flan brûlée which was good.
Nice spot tucked jnto a neighborhood by the BioPark.
Great service, amazing outdoor vibes with tons of seating under the trees, and good, fresh food (loved the breakfast bagel in particular). Only two complaints:
1. They ask you to pay $5 for parking on the weekends, which is fine but unexpected.
2. Their matcha was pre-made with whole milk, so if you can’t have whole milk, no matcha for you.
Will be back here again for a nice, relaxing breakfast. Just get my matcha ahead of time.
Hidden gem of ABQ! Stopped here on a Sunday morning at 9am and was pleasantly surprised. They had a tent with cycling gear, outdoor and covered seating. Short line, quick service, and amazing food! We got the cafe de olla and chilaquiles, which were both delicious. Will be back!
Awesome, unique coffee shop. Although coffee shop is not really a good description. More like a farm, that's coffee friendly. Very bike friendly. Easy access from the Basque trail. Breakfast burrito was very tasty. Wife had the vegan tacos which were also delicious. Highly recommend.
This place was great! We went on a Wednesday morning and there was live music!
I forgot to get pictures of the food. The farm, the flower garden, and the whole atmosphere is wonderful and so relaxing. Especially the music in the background. My husband and I, were really not impressed with the food so much. I heard other people bragging about what they got. The posole and other dishes. We did not like the flavorings or seasoning in the burritos. However, some of the family did. Everybody's taste buds are different. We will definitely go back for the fun time that we had with the wonderful atmosphere. We will go back anytime.

Great food but Eubank location is very scary at night. Security guard roaming-good! But management slowing things down to take complaints from customers. Manager stated slow the line down so I can speak to angry man?
This location is awful, I thought some of the other reviews were exaggerating but absolutely not. There wasn’t a line when we went inside but the employees were so curt and rushed. They gave the smallest portion of food i’ve ever received from any panda ever. And when I got home I realized my cabbage from my super greens had mold. Needless to say I won’t be attending this location again due to the poor customer service, quality, and portion size.
The service was amazing but i have to say the opposite of my food. I opened it up and saw the beef in my broccoli beef was grey and gross looking. The kung pao chicken was chewy and also just gross. I also got some rangoons and there was no cream cheese in any of the three I got. I ate some of the beef and chicken and started to feel nauseous and threw up. Usually this location is great but after this, i’m put off of panda for a while…
We went here very late half and hour before closing and I was surprised that they had the 3 items that we ordered. There were several cars in front of us but the line moved quickly. I ordered the orange chicken with rice and really enjoyed the food. Even though I had to get home with the food it was still a perfect temperature. The rice was perfect, not mashed up and the chicken was delicious. The nuggets had a delicious caramel orange glaze coating that provided the perfect touch to the soft tenderness of the chicken. The condiments were provided with everyone getting all the needed utensils to eat with. Then the dessert of a traditional Chinese fortune cookie which I always enjoy. Perfect ending of a great day, thank you Panda Express for a wonderful meal.
Lost my receipt and couldn't do the survey, but had a great experience going through the drive through at this location. I love the Beyond Orange Vegetarian option but it is currently unavailable. Instead of just telling me they didn't have it (like most people do), Cathy pointed me in the direction of another veggie entree that I might like. I had never heard of it and love that she took the time! Tiffany was also very helpful at the window!
Customer service was great! They were busy and I did have to wait a little longer then normal but who cares. To me that's a sign that they are doing good. My food was delicious and I didn't have to make dinner tonight. Thank you.
My go to place when I visit Big Lots. I was saddened to learn that the Spicy Orange Chicken was not available, but I settled for the regular Orange Chicken and Fried Rice.
Yummy 😋 😋 😋. You can't go wrong at this place, folks. Fresh and tender, did I mention juicy. Never dried out.

Sooo Good ! & the owners were so nice :’) definitely will be coming back whenever we visit ABQ, the food was so good & the peanut sauce was my favorite ! as well as the rare steak pho ! 🍜 very reasonable prices as well
Best tasting pho ever in ABQ. The lady there gives the best recommendations, as I didn’t know what to pick (there are so many great options)! Not cheap with the toppings at all and the small bowl was a perfect portion for me. I got #48. Recommend it all the way!
I had an unexpected layover stay in ABQ due to a cancelled flight, and just wanted a bowl of pho at the end of a long day. Pho #1 definitely delivered. The pho was absolutely delicious and authentic, with a deeply flavored broth and fresh ingredients. The staff was extremely friendly, even offering me some treats while I waited for my ride-share. It's a small gesture but it meant a lot to me, given the day I had.
Came for the Pho; returned for the Foo. Our grandson is stationed here in the air force & stopped by one day to tell us he had found the best Pho in ABQ. I have to agree, it’s damn good pho, the brisket pho has a unique flavor you don’t really get elsewhere. Pho is my favorite Vietnamese dish. I noticed on the menu they also had vegetable egg foo young, which is my favorite Chinese dish. We came back the following week for the foo & it really is the best egg foo young in the 505! Oh & before I forget, the salted lemonade is so delicious, way better than it sounds. 10/10 would recommend!
One of the best pho spots in the city. Reminds me of places I’ve tried in San Francisco and Seattle. Also really friendly and helpful owners with amazing service.
We had been having heavy Mexican food for the past few days traveling in New Mexico. It was such a delight to have found lots of Vietnamese restaurant in ABQ! We chose this one because it looks authentic and so glad we came here! Food and drink were delicious and most of all, auntie/owner was super kind and sweet. We enjoyed our time chatting with her, learning about ABQ and her family. Thank you ^_^
We have gone several times and we love everything about this restaurant from the atmosphere when we walk in, to the friendly smiles we get, to the absolutely amazing food.

Some of these reviews might be infatuation with being in a new city, but this place was fantastic. I was a huge fan of the outdoor seating and the water fountain. This is the first breakfast place to eat at in New Mexico, and it was a great choice by our director.
I had the buritto with the chili on the side. The red chili and green chili had little spice to either of them but they had plenty of flavor to them. The buritto had plenty of filing and it feels way more fresh than what I am used to. I really enjoyed it.
In addition, I had a oatmilk chai latte and it was awesome. I'm a huge fan of it, and it was a generous portion of a latte. I was able to save half of it for the hike up the sandia peak, which was also amazing.
You do order at the counter and they bring you your food. Pretty quick service for a fairly busy morning.
We had lunch here today, August 16th and while the service at the counter was very nice it was downhill after that. We got two regular hamburgers, 1 sandwich and 1 kids breakfast along with 1 dessert and spent $85. That is way way too expensive for that type of food. The burgers were almost ok. They were dry and flavorless. The sandwich was not OK. The kids breakfast had less than 1 full piece of bacon, maybe 1 full egg that was scrambled. All the fries tasted older and re-re-refried then baked or something.
My family and I have been coming to this place for salads and desserts — they’re really good!
Today, we veered off and ordered the huevos rancheros, fish & chips, and chicken tenders.
The red chili on my huevos rancheros had good flavor, but once I started eating, I got a little bummed out because my corn tortillas were cold. I had to ask for them to be reheated. The fish & chips were okay. They would have been better if the batter was crispy, but it was soggy and the fries tasted old and hard. The chicken tenders were the same; the batter was soggy too. We will still come back, but we will stick to what we know is delicious.
The Flying Star Cafe is a charming spot for breakfast, and their Croque Madame is a standout. Perfectly crisp bread, rich béchamel, and a runny egg on top make it a decadent and satisfying choice. A must-try! I could stay and drink the coffee all day..
Love getting lunch here, food is always good, desserts are great.
Service is always good as well.
Clean restrooms.
Clearly marked vegan options on the menu. The Tofu Tacos were good! I wish the Buddha bowl was a bit more saucy, the sauce tasted good, just not enough for the size of the bowl. There was a delay for one of the orders in the party, they made it right by comping a future meal.
Friendly service but flying star is getting pricey. It’s was 45 before tip. I was not impressed with burger or Mac n cheese. Pretty bland and the fries tasted hard like they had been sitting out.
Update 11/2024: I’d still give it 3 stars. The food is still marginal at best. The chicken on my salad did not have a texture close to any chicken I’ve had before. The chairs are torn up and the place could use some attention.

Really great place. You can find a whole lot of different things. My wife and I even found chapulínes (culinary grasshoppers) I never thought I could find such a delicacy outside of Mexico. We also found many gourmet Mexican candy treats that are not a rarity in Albuquerque, but not the most common thing to find. The sellers are all very friendly and prices are reasonable. It's not the prettiest location to look at, but it's filled with plenty of variety. Next paycheck I think I'll buy myself some boots.
In my opinion, the manager of this place sucks. He understands the value of advertising and in his own way, bringing buyers and sellers together. Honesty, integrety and legality don't seem to be high on his list of priorities. He works hard to make this FLEA MARKET work i believe. It's a candid look at the mejicano culture and values and attitudes. Cool.
Good food, good merchandise, good people and good times! All for less than the one @ expo nm.
Great, well maintained little flea market never overcrowded, you would be surprised at what you can find here, food stands and even live bands spice up the place

Finally a place where quality and ease with piece of mind to allergies where one may sip tea, coffee and grab and go to your heart's content! What I found was delicious....marry me chicken....all natural and affordable. The atmosphere is lovely, clean and bright, come if you dare to eat well, or not and it will be my secret.

I ate the pesto pasta today at the growers market, and it was one of the best pastas I’d ever had. The workers were SO sweet and helpful which also added to my amazing experience. I’m thrilled to see they have an actual physical location here in Albuquerque and we will DEFINITELY be back to try more!
Amazing choices for any style diet. Amazing food and drinks for sensitive guts and butts. Quick meals for the on-the-go worker or just anybody who wants a quick delicious meal. Great area it's in and above all great people inside making the awesomeness they have inside. Make sure to get almond milk. And really everything for that matter.
Amazing concept !! Wow we were greeted with a sincere warm smile and received excellent service from Mariela. The food presentation and atmosphere is phenomenal. We tried the GF chicken tenders, a meat lovers breakfast bowl, beef jerky, Cobb salad, fresh fruit, and house made mint tea. It was all amazing. The value is incredible, normal prices for organic food that is freshly made. Not th mention how awesome the owner Rhoby is. Oh, bring some cash to tip because the POS system doesn’t have the normal offensive force you to tip screen ( thank you Rhoby we hate those things ) join their club and earn 10 bucks for every hundred spent there. Please share this review with people who want healthy local nourishment and support your local business.
When you've been looking for a place that is quick and not fast-food but made with local, organic, and high-quality flavorful ingredients, this is it. Catering to vegan, vegetarian, and meat lovers, anyone can find something to eat here. They offee pre made, grab and go cold meals that are delicious. The microwave is there if you need to heat before you go and some dishes require no heat. I'll be back to try a salad they looked so fresh! And hot and cold drinks. Highly recommend the strawberry kiwi limeade with sea moss, not too sweet nice and tart. Prices are a little higher than average grocery store grab and go options but way better quality and taste! I tried the bbq sliders. Big and filling! Chicken tenders, also a hit! I brought them home, popped in the oven, and was enough for 2 people! Support local! Give em try. Right off of 4th and Montano. Get there before 4!
Just the absolute best place! Grab and go at its finest! Who said fast food cannot be excellent local and organic? This place proves it can be done! I’ll be back often!
Amazing restaurant with wonderful options for vegan, vegetarian and meat lovers. Really there is something for everyone in this friendly, clean and homey place. I took my order to go but there is outside seating if you want to eat there.
This place is refreshing in food options and very nice staff.
Wow! All 13 of my friends that and myself, were just blown away by how amazing this food is! We will order again!
