Delicious highly recommend! The breakfast schnitzel with the chili gravy was fantastic.

The breakfast strudel was outstanding. As always the flavor was perfect and this time the temperature also came out nice and hot, just how I would want it. The gravy has a little kick which we loved. Normally we don't eat that much German food, but we LOVE this place. The apple strudel with pecans on top is outstanding, my favorite dessert there. My second favorite is the Oreo cheesecake. I went back again for a second time mostly because the owner personally replied to my last review and wanted me to try the experience again. I respected him for doing that so I made sure to come back next chance I had. The owner Michael went out of his way to make sure everything was okay and make sure my experience turned out great. I really appreciate the fact that even though they are busy, this business still cares about the experience of their customers and their reputation. The owner greeted me, apologized about the last experience and shook my hand and made sure the experience was flawless. I respect this man and the business and I will be back and bring all my friends too. read more

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. read more

I ordered a German chocolate cake for my husband's birthday. Yesterday, I made the very long trek to Rio Rancho to this tiny bakery/cafe in a small industrial gravel parking lot! Walking in you can tell this is definitely a very German themed place. The refrigerator case had a few cakes, and another case had strudel. There must have been 10-12 varieties of strudel slices to choose from. A very nice gentleman greeted me, he placed my cake in a box and then I decided to have a piece of coconut cheese strudel while I was there. There was lots of filling but very little coconut (on top only). Still yummy. Later the cake was a big hit at home. Very dense, chocolatey with walnuts. Hubby loved it! read more

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. read more

Amazing. Everything is super delicious. Super duper delicious. Friendly staff. Feels German asf

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. read more

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. read more

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.

I've heard great things about this place, so we decided to stop in for breakfast and some pastries. We weren't entirely sure what to expect. My son loved his food and, of course, a strudel. My partner loved his food and ordered two things: breakfast and a Jagersnitzel. We all enjoyed the food we got, and we will be back. The outdoor patio is in an odd location, as it was right next to their door to dump trash. There isn't a better place for it because of their location, but maybe they'll grow or figure out a way to make it seem more separated (mini wooden or decorative fence?). read more

Good morning on this brisk Wednesday in central New Mexico. Join Tom, Gretchen, Mark, and Jim as we venture to Rio Rancho and report on an Octoberfest celebration at Dagmar's, our go-to place for all things German in New Mexico. This is one of our absolute favorites: Schnitzel for either breakfast or lunch. Take home Hungarian Goulash, Beef Rouladen, and Sauerbraten packaged for easy reheating. Weiners of all shapes and sizes. And did I mention mouth-watering desserts and cinnamon rolls? Those sticky buns are served warm, soft, and umm mm delicious. Best anywhere in New Mexico. Call ahead if you want to take out or get there early if you want sticky buns for sure - they often run out before lunch. Tables for eating in a recently added dining area. Friendly service and lots of German tchotchkes for your viewing pleasure. It is one of our most favorite places to pick up a great meal. Just click on the following YouTube video link and see our report. Most highly recommended. https://youtu.be/oQljJMhU1LM?si=1KlVFGZRhoSnEUW7 read more

Was over in Rio Rancho today and saw the Dagmar's Bakery sign. Heard about it, but I don't get on this side of town much. Stopped in for lunch and was not disappointed! Having been stationed in Germany for 5 years, we became very familiar with the great flavors and tastes of German cuisine. I had the schnitzel sandwich on a fresh in-house baked brotchen with a side of German potato salad. Absolutely spot on - true authentic food. Left with a bag full of brotchen and some pastries. Will be back next time I'm in the Rio Rancho area. read more

Went to peek at pastries- found so much more in soups, sandwiches & mini market of things to make at home. Delightful staff.

A little off the beaten path but still worth coming in. Authentic food and pastries! Oh so delicious. read more

I stand by my previous review of Aug 25, 2021. Will never eat food from there again. Food handling practices totally unacceptable.

Don't let front of store or parking lot scare you away from this hidden GEM. This is an outstanding bakery. I called needing a German chocolate cake for wife's birthday. We didn't need a big cake just for us two. Dagmar stated she had the perfect size for us & it was heart shaped. Since it was for the love of my life I responded that will be ideal. The inside of store, happy people baking/creating magic in the back, an really great selection makes this a go to place fore your bakery needs. I have to drive from another town & pass 4 bakeries to get here, but very much worth the trip. read more

Love this place great food and deserts and friendly staff . One of the best sandwiches around . A must try

We've been meaning to try Dagmar's for quite awhile. I really like German food - part of my heritage... We can't seem to get there or if we are in the area it's already closed. But today we specifically planned it. A small place in the Trinity Plaza - easily missed. We got inside - kitchen left food right. Right passed the case loaded with cakes, breads, meats, cookies and treats. We stopped at the cash register directly behind the case loaded with strudel. Meals are saved for another day - we were there for dessert. Slice of German Chocolate Cake and another of just Chocolate Cake and a piece of Cinnamon Apple Strudel. No place to sit. What few tables they have were already taken. Oh well, the single outdoor table would work. Both pieces of cake were delicious. In true German fashion the cake was dense and the frosting not overly sweet. Too full for the strudel. They have a few German dishes available, including my favorite Jägerschnitzel. Since Dagmars closes @ 3p a lunch trip is planned to fill my German food craving. read more

Dagmar's Strudel House - I'm not a photographer lol - Bakeries Near Me - Rio Rancho, New Mexico

I have heard of this business for years and have just never had a chance to try it. We recently moved into a neighborhood close by so on Saturday morning I trekked over and now I'm kicking myself for not being here sooner. What a cool, little, locally owned gem!! It has a family feel. I was greeted right away, given then run down of their offerings and given time to puruse and take it all in. They carry everything from a fabulous and drool worthy pastry case, house made breads, sausages and sides and imported merchandise. And on top of all of that, they serve hot lunches and breakfast on Saturday. I went home with a gorgeous and delicious loaf of Sourdough. And strudel. Omg strudel. I chose 6 flavors and every single one was fantastic. The family shared like a sampler and now we all have favorite flavors. So impressed with this little shop and will most definitely be back. read more

Very good. Small hidden gem in Rio Rancho. Had a Reuben sandwich with red cabbage. Very tasty. Ordered 4 pieces of strudel. Service quick.

UPDATE: After they posted a "no one wants to work" whiny rant on Facebook, I haven't found the motivation to make the 50 minute round-trip. Strudel as far as the eye can see. But don't miss the raspberry-green chile and apple-green chile strudel. I wish there was a location closer, but used to make the 25-30 minute drive for some delicious breakfast schnitzel and strudel. I'd eat it in the bed of the truck while I'm still there because 25+ minutes doesn't do well for cooling and gravy soaking into the crispy schnitzel. read more

The service is wonderful. People very friendly. Bought Jääger schnitzel. Strudel and bread was delicious. I will go back to get food for my Octoberfest party next month. read more

Delicious German food on the west side. Especially enjoyed the crunchy schnitzel, flavorful knockwurst, side of potatoes bursting with flavor, and all the soft fluffy bread. Friendly staff and lots of delicious food will definitely keep us coming back for more. read more
