    Delicious Mexican-New Mexican food in Nob Hill! These folks sold the shop down in Carlsbad and…read moremoved it up to Albuquerque, leveraging the awesome old Brickyard spot. Same interior, same bar, same TVs, new food options. The chips and salsa were particularly winning, homemade and so fresh and delicious!! The chips were thick and crunchy without being greasy, and the salsa was a verde variety with avocado floaters and lots of big cilantro chunks. Absolutely fabulous! I had the rellenos, which were served dry, strangely. And this is why I said Mexican-New Mexican... no chile sauce?? They were nevertheless quite up to standard. Companions had a burrito each and shared the chicken tacos, which come four to a plate for the reasonable price of $11. They were "legit," apparently. Two soft drinks added to the meal, and our bill was $37 and change after the 15% UNM discount. That's a pretty reasonable ticket for three, these days. It's an order at the counter kinda place, but the server does keep your chips and sodas full. The menu isn't large but includes variety enough. The place is still a secret, so it's not too busy yet. Go on in and make 'em a hit!

The food is really good the food taste fresh from the chips they give you to the food you ordered. I would recommend El Nopal for those that want good Mexican food, not the cheapest, yet you get what you paid for. I'll be back again.
