    This hidden gem had been recommended to me by a number of different people and I am so glad I was able to finally check it out. It is definitely out of the way, but worth it to be able to try something new. Albuquerque is obviously not known for its selection of German food but this is it if you're looking for it. I would describe this as a bakery / specialty grocery store / eatery. They have a variety of baked goods, including strudel and whole cakes. They also have a lunch menu with German delicacies and some grocery items that you can pick up to go. I came out of time where I wasn't super hungry and was only there for a sweet treat, but I would definitely like to eventually go back and try some of the savory foods. I tried the coconut strudel, and it was very good. Exactly what you would want. They had a handful of other flavors and even whole ones that you could buy to go.

    Great pastries! So glad to see this restaurant survive changes. I think I've visited it in three different locations over the years. Sandwiches were great, fantastic German grocery selection and lovely pastries. They also have an Octoberfest ! We missed it but will watch for it next year.

    This German was disappointed. I was excited to try Dagmar's to try New Mexico's only restaurant solely dedicated to German foods. Red Rock Deli in Albuquerque has a few German foods but focuses on more Eastern European cuisine, so Dagmar's is the place to go for German. Dagmar's is a small combination deli, grocery, and restaurant with frozen meats, imported goods, baked goods and desserts, and a small restaurant menu. The dining area is in the back, and there's an open patio where dinners can eat as well. We got four pieces of apple strudel, four sides (two potato salads; one rot kohl, which they call "red cabbage"; and one sauerkraut), and four sandwich rolls for $59. Unfortunately the food was overpriced and bland. The apple strudel reminded me of McDonald's' single-serve apple pies, the potato salad was dry, the other two sides were bland, and the rolls weren't baked all the way and were too claggy to eat. We had to toss those, which was disappointing. Overall, Dagmar's is a good idea, and I'm glad there's a German place here, but it doesn't work in execution for this German.

    My girlfriend lives close by and we stopped by over the weekend for some lunch and strudels. They just opened up a dining area that wasn't there before during my last visit to NM. We ordered 2 orders of jagerschnitzel because my girlfriend won't share hers, so we got one each to go with some sides. It was just as good as the last time my girlfriend let me have a taste the last time we ordered from here. If you like chicken fried steak, you won't be disappointed. We also got a 6 pack of strudels.. coconut is my favorite, but we also tried the red chili flavor as well.. that definitely had some chili flavor. We will be coming back for the good food and service. The next time around, I want to try the Ruben.

    German Chocolate & Black Forest Cupcakes

    Me and my husband love coming to Dagmar's to pick up sweets. We have been in there about 4 times and each time was a Fantastic Experience. The 1st time we went in I wanted German chocolate cupcakes but my husband wanted Black Forest cupcakes. I asked the gal at the counter if we could have 1/2 and 1/2 and she said "well no one has ever asked but sure - maybe someone else might want them half and half too she said." So we got 3 German chocolate cupcakes and 3 Black Forest cupcakes and we went on our way. Well let me tell you that they were Absolutely Delicious and Scrumptious. So we had to order 2 dozen more for thanksgiving and those were amazing too. We also came in a few other times for their strudel and other baked goods which have also been so delectable. On Valentine's I was craving some German Chocolate Cupcakes but I didn't pre-order any and I just walked in there and asked if they had any. Well they had some in the back that were not frosted or decorated and I was perfectly ok with that since that day was Hectic in its own and then I didn't even pre-order to begin with but once again the young lady in the back OFFERED to decorate them for me quickly if I wanted. I didn't want to impose and put her thru more work on Valentine's Day than they already had but she insisted it was no trouble at all so she decorated (2) 6 packs for me on Valentine's Day and they were the cutest cupcakes ever along with being so moist and incredible. The owner is really nice too. You will catch him up in the front ringing ppl up and chatting. Really nice people, delicious desserts and pastries and overall a really good fair price. If you are ever craving some delicious sweets don't forget to check them out

    Really good but really expensive. $30 for a strudel is a bit steep. Guess I'll have to figure out how to make my own.

I noticed quite a few five star reviews for this joint on Yelp. This place is supposed to make the genuine NYC pizza with thin crust. I ordered 2 cannolis ($11) and an 18" Deluxe pizza ($25.25) with pepperoni, ground beef, mushrooms, sausage, onions, and black olives. When I arrived, David Wheelock, at the cash register, told me they had just removed my pizza. He handed me the box and said he had to go in the back to make the cannolis. I'm not sure if they really make them there or not, but they had lot of cream filling and weren't too sweet. The pizza had a lovely, crispy crust and a ton of toppings. I wish this place was closer. By the time I got home with the pie it wasn't hot anymore. Just warm. A very good representation of NY style pizza.

I forgot to take a picture of the pizza and wings until we had already consumed half the pizza and all the wings. The pizza was absolutely delicious. The flavor was nice and one of the better pizzas I've had in a while. The crust is very delicious and has such a nice texture and mouth feel. I wish the pizza was saucier but that's just for my personal liking. The pizza was perfect. Now onto the wings. Even though the flavor was delicious they were incredibly small. Just a tad bigger than a nugget and that's just way too small. Service at pickup was neither friendly or rude - just transactional. Overall the pizza was good enough to order it again.

My dining companion…read morewas craving something from another restaurant on the other side of town, but considering it was so late, I suggested coming here as it had similar things on the menu, and I am so glad I suggested this place. We walked in, and the place was a little crowded, but we were still sat pretty quickly. I liked the atmosphere of the place because it seemed very open, inviting, and had a certain local charm to it. As soon as my dining companion saw the people around us getting their food delivered it looked so good she no longer remembered what we came for and we ended up ordering something completely different. We didn't wait long for our waitress to come over. She was very nice and attentive I asked her for a drink recommendations, and she mentioned some good ones. Considering the day before was New Year's Eve and I probably should've took a break from drinking, I said say screw it and got something light. It was a blood orange cider, and it was delicious, I was not expecting it to taste like that! Unable to make our minds up, we decided to split a salad and pizza. For the salad I wanted to get the Valley grande, but we compromised and got the brazos which was essentially a Caesar salad. That's how it was huge. We had enough to share and more, it was also tasty, the dressing. You could tell was definitely house made. For the pizza we decided to get a split half truchas and half chimayo (my half) and it was amazing the flavor was great and the topping fresh. Although next time I will ask for well done. On to dessert. The best thing we ordered all night was the Apple calzone. It seemed to be the size of a little football and came with two scoops of ice cream. I could tell it was made to order and it was absolutely delicious! We cannot wait to go back.

Because of those experiences, this review is disappointing to write. Our recent dine-in experience was completely different. The employee who took our order came across as impatient from the start. Before I had finished ordering, he gave me the total after I mentioned my sandwich. I had to stop him to add two drinks, he sighed, asked how many, and immediately gave me another total. When I added a Goo Ball, he grabbed it, set it on the counter, rang up the new total, and again acted as though I was finished ordering before I had the chance to ask for anything else. We had actually planned to order more, but the interaction made us feel like we were inconveniencing him simply by ordering. I work in the restaurant industry myself, so I understand that everyone has bad days. Had that been the only issue, I wouldn't have taken the time to leave a review. The reason I'm writing this is what happened after we sat down. A woman who appeared to be the employee's girlfriend came into the restaurant, and his demeanor changed immediately. While he was still on the clock, she stood at the front counter by the register, and for much of the time we were there they were engaged in prolonged, intimate kissing and embracing. My girlfriend and I were seated in the booth closest to the register, only a few feet away, and she was facing them the entire time. It made her genuinely uncomfortable, and there was no way to avoid it while we were eating. At one point, a DoorDash driver came in to pick up an order. The employee briefly pointed toward the back of the restaurant, said, "Over there, man," without even looking at the driver, and then immediately went back to his girlfriend. That interaction made it clear he was still actively working while all of this was happening. To be clear, this isn't about an employee greeting their significant other. A quick hug or kiss wouldn't have bothered us. This was prolonged, intimate behavior at the front register while customers were dining, and it felt completely inappropriate for the workplace. I do want to recognize the rest of the staff because they deserve it. Everyone else was working, and the bartender was friendly, professional, and provided excellent customer service throughout our visit. We'll continue ordering DoorDash because the food has always been consistently good, but we won't be dining in at this location again. We'd rather drive the extra 20 minutes to the Menaul location where we've always had positive experiences. I'm not looking for compensation or anything in return. I simply hope management is made aware of what happened because one employee's conduct turned what should have been an enjoyable lunch into an uncomfortable experience.

    So this was my first time ordering from cheba hut, what food I did receive was really good,…read moreespecially their sauces, it's unfortunate that like 25% of the order was not delivered . The experience was pretty mixed but the customer service from isaac was good so I maintained a 4 star review because of that. Each of my items was supposed to have guacamole, banana peppers and jalapeños, as well as notes for extra toppings. I didn't get those parts of the meal. In fact I'm glad I called and asked if I could taste some their sauces because if I didn't do that then I wouldn't have gotten any sauce! For example the house sauce and spicy ranch I ordered for the salad didn't arrive. The sauces I ordered with the meal were not delivered and the only ones I received were the extra mixture of sauces that the guy on the phone said he usually would have to charge me for but he would comp it. And it turns out he didn't get the sauces that were supposed to come with the meal and those were the only ones I got anyway. One upsetting part was that if they ran out of stuff they did not try to alert the customer and offer replacement items. I will say this, when I called about this, I got an apology and offer for free items. If I do go back to claim the items I'll let you guys know what the update is like. I think this might be the type of place that you'd want to check your order carefully and only leave once you know you are good to go. I don't recommend doing uber eats from here. I'm being really nice about the review stars because they had a couple sauces that were really good and although the business may not be organized, I think they have really yummy food and the customer service wasn't bad. So that's worth something.
