    Great good. A bit high priced for burritos. Check the hours. I love this place but it comes with challenges. They are my favorite handheld burrito in ABQ, and I have tried many. I love the food and have tried different ones and love them all. It is the queso cheese sauce and coin tater tots that makes them exceptional for my tastebuds. They do run higher $ than most handheld burritos and this can limit how often I go. The other barrier for me is the hours. They already have shortened hours closing at 2pm. And I have been by close to 1:45 and they were already closed. Same in the AM. I have gone twice before work and the place is dark even an hour after the posted open time. Over all is is well worth a try sometime but hard to make a regular place.

    Churro donut  yum! $1.50 ea

    I dropped off my dog for grooming at a business nearby and was trying to find a place around the area to kill some time while he's getting cleaned up..and decided to check out ABQ Burrito since it was one of the business nearby and had good ratings. While the breakfast burrito (~$5-6) was just ok but in a good size for the price (mind you, I'm never really a big fan of burrito), the churro donuts ($1.50 ea) were 5 stars (taste, price) to me. If I were to go back, no questions asked, I would definitely go for the churro donuts again. On the day I stopped by, I got 3 of them just to try..and ended up finishing all 3 of them by mid day! eek! That's how much I enjoyed those! Normally, I would rate this kind of place 4 stars (round down from 4.5 stars). However, the service was top notch from everyone I interacted with! The cashier lady was so polite and gave me ample of time time to decide what to order; she also offered to put my to go churro bag on the warmer while I ate my burrito in store. A gentleman (either a store manager or the owner) also was friendly! He greeted me and asked how I was doing and if I needed any help as I was enjoying my meal/time there! I would definitely stop by ABQ Burrito again for churro donuts the next times I drop by for some yummy munchies again! Thank you for such a great service and hospitality that permeated to every single person I interacted with while at the store!

    Recently spotted this little hide away burrito place. I drove past here knowing I wanted to come back. This morning was the day. The dining room had one gentleman enjoying his breakfast in the spacious dining room. The young man helping me just patiently waited as I pondered the menu with its savory selection of burritos. I finally settled on the carnitas. I have no regrets and completely thrilled with its moist and perfectly seasoned carnitas. I chose green chile to enchanted the flavor. The chile has a fantastic flavor with a tiny bite. It nibbles on your tastes buds leaving you wanting more. Can't wait to visit again and try another flavor!!

    Sloppily wrapped burrito

    *Mediocre food, terrible service, and sloppy presentation* Today was the first time I have ever been to this restaurant. First I called in the order and it was clear that the person on the phone did not know what they were doing because they were asking for help the entire time. So while waiting to place the order I kept hearing "can you help me with this?" several times before someone did. I walk into the restaurant to pick up my order and it's practically empty but no one greeted or acknowledged me. I told them I was there to pick up my order and the lady gave it to me and charged me. After paying she was distracted and I stood there for nearly a minute trying to figure out what to do. I finally just grabbed my stuff and said "thanks" and walked away. The manager who had been there the entire time finally paid attention and asks her "does she have everything she needs" and he asks me if I need anything else. I told him I would like my receipt. He seemed frazzled and frustrated as he tried to help me. He even rudely asked "name?!" when I told him I wanted my receipt. I left feeling frustrated and dismissed. In terms of the burrito it was sloppily wrapped and extremely salty. I think I'd rather go to the food truck that's just up the street. They may have better services. I will not be coming back to this place.

    This place IS New Mexico food. I was skeptical at first because I have my New Mexico favorites, but I ventured out and tried something new. This place is incredible. I got the burrito bowl (trying to cut carbs ) and the flavor was amazing. Cheesy, spicy, and savory! I will definitely be back here!

    Delicious burrito bowls. Churro donuts will leave your head spinning in taste bud heaven. Same goes for the raspberry chimis. Oh my good. So God good.

    Burritos No Chili. 3 $6 burritos but receipt total was $24 not sure how that happens.
    Keith S.

    After the initial visit and the Order not being correct they did correct the order and the food was made well. They still need to correct the prices on the menu. Says $6 for a burrito but charging $7. Please show some price integrity. Fix you board not w even worth $6.

    We got a sausage and bacon burrito and they were both delicious! You can tell the green chile is fresh, it has a great kick to it. Also would recommend the churro doughnut

Our server was there promptly as we were seated taking our drink order and finding out we were first timers, pointed out common favorites as suggestions. We shared a biscuit and gravy breakfast plate, which the restaurant was kind enough to split for us in the kitchen. The menu stated they used sausage gravy and photos from here on Yelp supported that; we however got gravy with zero sausage. It wasn't even a creamy country gravy. It was so thin. The taste was good but still disappointing. The potatoes were excellent. Well seasoned with crispy bits. The egg was perfect for us. Over easy order=whites solid with runny yolk. The egg was so good I ate most of it before I remembered to take a picture. The food I'd give 3.5 stars but the service pulled my rating up to 4. We do plan on returning for their amazing looking pancakes, waffle plates and or French toast. When we left the restaurant at 10:10 AM the waitlist had started. All benches by the entrance were full. A very popular restaurant!

The bread is clearly baked fresh and was nice and crusty on the outside and fluffy with the perfect chew on the inside. My mini me 1 inhaled her grilled cheese (of which my husband ordered the full size and also demolished his), and mini me 2 and I shared the toasted tuna melt. Good balance of tuna, celery, and bread ratio, but I didn't dig the olives in it. There's a mini kale salad that comes with entrees, and it was healthy and palatable for kale. We did end up balancing that green with the pistachio cruffin and pistachio chocolate chip cookie. Would definitely go back for the cruffin with its flaky layers and luscious pastry cream. Cookie was less impressive but still worth the impulse buy. Indoor and breezy outdoor seating available. Highly recommend!

The kids are happy, I'm happy, and honestly, that's a successful breakfast in my book. The only downside is the limited seating. It's a smaller location, so it can fill up quickly, especially during the breakfast rush. If you happen to come during a really busy time, you may have to wait a bit to find a table. That said, I don't think it takes away from the experience you just have to time it right. We usually come for breakfast since they're open for breakfast and lunch, and this time I tried the Grande burrito. And let me tell you, "Grande" is not an exaggeration. That is a LOT of food. I got the bacon-smothered burrito with red chile, and it was delicious. Unfortunately, I could not finish it. I do wish there was something between the Grande and Junior because the Grande is a serious commitment, and I'm not sure the Junior would be enough. I'll have to try it next time and find out. My daughter ordered the steak sandwich, which comes with an Angus sirloin steak on Texas toast. It looked a little wild when it came out, but she ate it and said it was delicious, so apparently the presentation was just part of the experience. My son got the sausage, egg and cheese biscuits. He ate the whole thing, so clearly he approved. His only complaint was that the biscuit kept falling apart, but considering he's a little kid, I'm going to blame that one on the user rather than the biscuit. The staff has always been friendly during our visits. On this particular morning, a gentleman came around several times to refill our house coffee, which I always appreciate. Good service and a full coffee cup go a long way. And if you're into pastries and coffee, they have plenty of options. I've tried their blueberry muffin, and it is divine. They also have different baked scones, and I've had their lattes and macchiatos, which have all been really good. I still need to come back during the lunch hours because there are several things I want to try. The hot beef sundae caught my attention, and the Philly also looked really good. There are so many different options that I feel like I could keep coming back and ordering something different every time. This is definitely the kind of place where you can stop in, grab something really good, enjoy a little coffee, and get on with your morning. It's casual, welcoming, and consistently good. Limited seating is really my only complaint. Otherwise, I've been here multiple times and have yet to leave disappointed. Definitely a must-try!

If parking fills up, they have an additional lot just east of the property! Albuquerque hospitality mixed with old town charm, stop in, get fed, and support local!

Two minutes later the manager came over to inform us that we were being rude to her server and that she would be taking over our service. After some discussion my wife said, "this is ridiculous, guess we won't be coming here again" the manager said "well I'll cancel your order and you can leave now".

The person who…read moreanswered was incredibly helpful and patiently explained that only the name had changed, which I appreciated. For our meal, we ordered two Chicken & Waffles plates, a Blue Corn Lavender Waffle, and a kids' plate. The Chicken & Waffles were the highlight of the meal, offering a satisfying balance of sweet and savory flavors. The Blue Corn Lavender Waffle was a unique touch and a fun way to try something distinctly New Mexican. Neither my wife nor I cared for the drip coffee, so we asked a staff member if we could swap it out for double espressos. They were happy to accommodate us, and the espresso was a significant improvement. The service was friendly, and the staff made a positive first impression from the phone call all the way through our visit. For our family, the total came to about $80, which felt a little steep. We ended up eating inside since the patio tables were either occupied or unavailable (due to a sleeping homeless person). The restaurant is housed in a renovated older home, and they've done a nice job making the most of the space. One of my favorite touches was the collection of retro waffle makers displayed along the walls, which added a fun, nostalgic charm to the atmosphere. Overall, it was a pleasant experience, and I'd happily return to explore more of the menu.

The blue corn is just a tinge sweet so was an interesting mix. The waffle is a decent size but is super filling and dense. I'll have to try some sweet waffles or some different waffle bases next time! That said there are lots of gluten free options as well, so if that's for you, then don't hesitate to come check it out you won't be disappointed. There is indoor and outdoor seating, though in general the place is small-ish and can get crowded during busy times. Parking is also a bit of an adventure, but so is anywhere in that area. The staff is super friendly as well. All in all a great experience and I will be back. I can't believe it took me so long to get here in the first place!
