    Burrito plate

    The food is good love the loaded waffle fries the service is good never a empty glass and some of the waiters/waitresses pick up trash every time the check on you and it is a nice place fell like your on space at the table

    I don't even know what this is but it cost me 13 dollars

    Ordered the nacho's was very disappointed everything was sloppy by the time I got to the sport bar didn't realize till open. Went back with my receipt to get exchange for wings. The manager name wanna was quick to deny me and was very rude. Highly recommend checking your to go order before leaving restaurant

    I've seen this place so many times when going to Isleta Resort & Casino. Given the choice between Fatburger and these guys well sad to say Fatburger gets me majority of the time. Seeing as this was the only restaurant open in the casino the choice was easier this time around. COVID 19 has made everything a bit awkward I'm not gonna lie. The days of waiting in line and being face to face with a cashier who takes your order are just about over. Now we are separated with plexiglass and wearing a mask that makes it hard to understand one another. Needless to say Chili Ristra has managed to adapt and are making it work. I had a tough choice between the Quesadilla or the Basket of Taquitos. My two favorite dishes well in Mexico the quesadilla is considered more a snack or appetizer rather than a full meal anyways, I consider it a meal just felt like sharing that interesting fact. Luckily my buddy Randall wanted to get the fries from the taquitos so he went halfsies in them so I was able to get both to try. The Quesadilla had chicken and a very generous amount of cheese. It also came with both sour cream and guacamole. The Taquitos came with 4 Taquitos, fries, salsa, and guacamole. Admittedly I favored the Quesadilla more than the Taquitos. Just mainly because of the flavor and lack of it in the Taquitos. The Taquitos were ok but the meat and seasoning were plain and dull not very exciting. My buddy enjoyed them more than I after he drenched it the guacamole. The fries on the other hand had a much more memorable experience. Overall the place has a great menu and offers great meals for a fair price. I am glad I finally tried it and next time around I'll most likely return to try more of their great food!

    Two eggs, over medium w/sausage, hashbrowns and burned toast, $6.49.

    Change is good. The good for us was the start of our third road trip of 2022 which started in Albuquerque. Our meal here was not memorable. Wife had a breakfast sandwich on a croissant with sausage, eggs and Swiss cheese. It was average. I had the eggs, over medium with sausage, hash browns and toast. Eggs and hash browns were undercooked. Toast was burnt and sausage was not good. It was cheap but not cheerful. Would try again if in Albuquerque, but not the egg breakfast.

    2 eggs, hashbrowns, bacon and toast.

    The food is reasonably priced. We have the 2-egg breakfast and soooooo good. The workers were extremely friendly and a very clean place.

    Very good hamburger with chile and bacon.

The parking is a bit crazy, they do have someone trying to help direct traffic through the parking lot. If you don't want to brave that though, there's plenty of street parking. It's busy but there's a lot of indoor and outdoor seating and the turnover pace is pretty good. Things can be a bit loud if you hit the crowded times, but really it's a popular spot for good reason. I got the sweet potato hash and it had the perfect mix of veggies and eggs and was cooked just right. I also tried one of their tea blends and it really hit the spot. The staff is all very friendly and helpful as well and the food comes out quickly. Anyway, great experience as always at the Grove!

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!

There are so many drinks to choose from, some bakery treats, and on weekend, Croffles (croissant dough waffles).

We found a spot to sit down and eat and enjoyed the coziness of the cafe. There are lots of blackbird decor items all over the shop. The courtyard was also so pretty. We would visit again!

Plenty of seating with tables, comfortable chairs and banquet seating if that's more your thing. On a nice day, sit outside as it's absolutely lovely out there, downright magical. Baristas are so nice and they put a lot of effort into crafting your drink. Admittedly, I didn't love my Americano but that had more to do with the type of bean (think a brighter flavor, while I prefer a dark roasted nutty flavor). This wouldn't at all stop me from returning and trying something else, like one of their cute specialty lattes if I'm feeling something on the sweeter side. Their prices are extremely reasonable, too.

    I absolutely love this place. I've been here a handful of times now, and every visit has been a…read moregood one. 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!

It does get very busy so prepare to find a table once you order. The food is always amazing! It has a diner setting but home cooked charm. Some highlights would be the biscuits and gravy, breakfast burrito (smothered), huevos rancheros, and their pancakes! Anything you pick, you can't go wrong. 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!
