Great red chile, nice slow burn. Sides were delicious also. Service was just right, not overly intrusive, but there when my tea ran low.
Great food. Just don't come with a big appetite. Portions are extremely small compared to Mexican restaurants I'm familiar with in. Most reviews indicate chips and salsa as not good...correct, but that is not one goes to a restaurant for. Sopapillas are excellent. Food is great...A+. Can't be stingy about food if you want a 5 star.
Great place for Mexican food in Albuquerque. They are one of the best places to get sopapillas. Lunch time is busy, but it moves fast.
CASH ONLY and be prepared for a line if you get here during lunch. WELL WORTH THE WAIT! Authentic Mexican food with amazing service. I had the special of the day, carnitas with potatoes and turnip greens, with both red and green chilies. I can’t wait to come back.
We read the reviews when we found this place. Hopefully you try it out for yourself. Phillip our waiter was friendly, quick, & informative. We got there about 130, (Place was still busy), but seated quickly. Salsa was good, chips a little hard but tasty. We ordered Chicken Enchiladas Dinner with Sopaipillas.
Food was great, hot, & just the right amount. Parking is interesting, with no room for RVs. Restaurant wasn’t a fancy place, more the you feel right at home or at grandma’s vibe. All of the staff were friendly & efficient. Lots of locals & seniors, who know the right place to eat. We will go back.
**Only cash is excepted** go prepared.
Stopped by at dinner during balloon fiesta. No host or hostess, just a line. Short line for what was a very busy time. Sat down and quickly became a member of the Padilla family. Several family members working there, the guy working at the door seemed to know every customer. Super nice guy. Ordered dinner and it was amazing. Sopapillas were the best I've had! Food was good but the stand out at this place was the service.
Food was DELICIOUS! Really Authentic New Mexican Cuisine. Order was taken pretty fast and delivered to the table pretty quick. Spend about 45 minutes total. Parking lot was pretty full but not terrible to locate a space. Great experience overall. The Hatch Green Chili Enchiladas and Red Sauce Enchiladas we both really good!!
Left the airport and Googled best Mexican food in Albuquerque and here we are. LOVED the food. Simple place off the beaten path, but worth it. Got here around noon on a Friday and it was packed! Our waitress, Debbie, was really great. Highly suggest eating here!

We stopped here while driving through Albuquerque, NM and got a craving for great Mexican food. The place is just a bit off the freeway but it’s super clean, the service is outstanding and as expected, the food is amazingly good. I ordered a Chicken Enchilada (breaking my vegetarian diet) mostly because it sounded good and most all of the menu items contain meat. The food came quickly and the waiter told us to try the Sopapillas with honey. It’s worth the stop just for those.
Don’t miss this place!
Love this place,,,,a neighborhood place that had been around for years and in the same family. Always packed, so plan on having to wait for a table during peak periods. If you get there earlywhen they first open at 11am,,,,, you will have no problem getting a table. Food I is good and consistent.
