Didn't try the food here, but came for the agua fresca. For $4, I got the small size (had her do a mixture of the horchata and the pistachio). Cold, creamy, and refreshing. It still had small pistachio pieces in the drink, which made it feel even more authentic. 2025 #85 read more

Once you get over the local element surrounding the area and visit this location it's great. We went through the drive through and we're quickly greeted in Spanish this gave a nice authentic feel. I asked if we could have a moment, which she was agreeable to. We finally determine what we would try. La Patrona, órale and tóxica. Once we got these home we realized these were some massive sandwiches. I was a little disappointed that it was a traditional torta like I have had in Mexico. It's was a great sandwich. Meaty with a great flavor. The meats were all juicy perfectly stacked to get all the tastes in each bite. read more

DonTortas - Mexican Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

Hard to find as it is hidden in a very new strip mall just east of the car wash at San Mateo and Central, but it's worth a look. It also appears to be the only storefront open in the mall, so I hope they get some help soon. Went for lunch. The place is small, maybe 6 tables, but very clean. The lady behind the counter was nice and tried to help with selection and choices. I ordered La Toxica, a steak and ham combo. I had the chipotle sauce on the side, and I'm glad I did. She said it was hot and she didn't lie! A little went a long way for me! The bread was very good and the meats were tasty. The cheese was good but it sort of overpowered the other flavors. Still, good sandwich. I also enjoyed the watermelon Agua Fresca. It was a little pricey, but it was very good and very fresh. I'll be back to try the other offerings. read more

Wow! Very clean and inviting environment when you enter the establishment. Very modern looking decor and the use of today's technology for menu's. The food was freshly made with a good variety of sandwich options. Okay so about the food. The torta bread was light, soft baked and was grilled buttery and crisp on the underside, yum! The flavors are bold and spicy depending on what get, I suggest the Burqueno if you can handle it! this place is definitely worth a try, I will be back but it's something I personally need to be in the mood for. Hope you all enjoy! read more

DonTortas - Great fresh made sandwiches. The Burqueno and the Toxico both yummy! - Mexican Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

Bottom Line: Very flavorful sandwiches & agua frescas. Super clean premises. Friendly & helpful counter lady. Strong accent can be hard to understand. A bit high on price for agua frescas. Online menu is brief & easy to understand. Top Line: Being a new business, Don Tortas interior was immaculate & shiny. Counter lady was friendly, outgoing, and helpful toward us making our choices for monthly outing. But her accent was pronounced enough that I struggled to understand what she said. My choice was La Patrona $12 torta with $5 horchata agua fresca. My dining partner went with the La Toxica torta, a side of fries, and pineapple agua fresca. Partner praised the pineapple drink for its flavor. I noted that the horchata possessed a notably heavier body than most I've had, which tend to be quite thin & watery even when they have good flavor. Don Tortas' horchata also was a bit more complex in flavor than most. Not just rice water, sugar, & cinnamon, which is pretty much the most basic & stripped down version. DT's horchata had nutmeg & some other flavor players joining the party, making it a distinctive drink. Sandwiches were large. Generosity on the portion front! The butter grilled toasted rolls were well loaded with meat, vegetation, cheese, dressing. The specific ingredients made for a rich & varied taste. Different textures kept the palate from being bored. Special note of the bread being sufficiently durable to not soggy up or crumble under the load they bore. The jalapeno peppers & chipotle arrived on the side. Chipotle was strong with the smoky flavor and, while it had a nice sting to it, was not as searingly hot as I anticipated. So I put it *all* on my torta & it wasn't too spicy. The pickled jalapeno was a bit hotter. But the hottest of all was the carrot slices that were pickled in with the jalapenos. So I easily recommend Don Tortas on the south side of Central Ave a block east of San Mateo as a good spot to hit up for a breakfast, lunch, or dinner sandwich & really fine agua frescas. read more

One word, wow! Thank you Yelp, another great find. I saw their page on Yelp and I knew I needed a torta right away. I rolled in and couldn't make up my mind. The lady working the counter was so nice and helped me make a decision. I ordered the La Toxica, grilled steak and a smoked pork chop. I also ordered fries and a large horchata. Man the food was good. My only gripe is that I got takeout so the bread was a little soggy by the time I got home. If your feeling like a hot sandwich, definitely check this place out. Don Torta is officially on my list of sandwich stops. read more

This place was a surprise. The food is very high quality. The Agua Frescas are the best I've had in Albuquerque ever. Seriously you can come here just to buy drinks. I had the burqueña. My only critique is the chorizo was a little on the salty side. But it did not ruin anything. This place is a top notch choice any day of the week. read more

The inside is clean and menu is easy to read but so hard to decide what to get! Everything sounded so good. We got the Chale and the Burquena with green Chile. We were really happy with both options. Definitely best enjoyed fresh since the ingredients + bread could be soggy if you order delivery or takeout. The horchata was delicious and not watered down at all. We will definitely be back to try the breakfast options! Be patient, since they just opened but it's worth the wait! read more

You know me I love my Toxicas, and it looked good but decided to change it up and got me a Chale! The whole menu looked good af, wanted one of everything but gotta stay fit for my toxicas. The steak and bread were alright, wasn't a big fan of it. But the salchicha got me, no homo... I also ordered a side a fries and they were so good. It was a good-looking place, nice and clean, but not as good-looking as me. read more

Don Tortas is a new business in town offering traditional Mexican tortas (sandwiches). They have breakfast tortas and also lunch/dinner type tortas; however, you can order them all at any time of the day. Their menu ranges from all type of meat: chicken, pork, beef, sausages and chorizo. I recommend getting the potato chips as a side for your torta, but you also have fries as an option. There's a great variety of aguas frescas that would perfectly go along with whatever torta you order. They had a great opening event and I'm confident they will succeed as they have traditional food and amazing staff. read more

DonTortas - Mexican Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

Disappointed in establishment. You would expect more from a place named Don Tortas. Not much of a variety on menu. All menu items consist of ham. Should have chicharrón as well as carnitas on the menu. A restaurant with an authentic Mexican name should have authentic Mexican food. Torta did not have enough meat for price. Food was good overall, but price and choice selection needs to be updated. read more

DonTortas - Skimped meat, tomato, cheese, avocado - Mexican Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

Authentic Tortas from Mexico City, they have Albuquerque spin as well. Aguas frescas. Can share the torta between two people! Very good!

I work near Central & San Mateo and was initially going to grab some tacos but remembered that I wanted to try DonTortas. I ordered the Hawaiana - Deli Ham, Smoked Pork Chop, Grilled Pineapple & Melted Cheese/Chuleta Ahumada, Jamón, Piña y Queso Derretido. Not only did it taste delicious, it was huge! The The watermelon agua fria was sweet, cold & refreshing. Lunch was $16 and I thought that was a little pricey until I realized how big the torta was. I could barely finish a half. The service was great and there was no line! read more

Bad experience all together. To start off, the customer service was terrible. I practice my Spanish and both of the workers were laughing at me, aside from your job, I get it. However, I also wanted a simple torta, and the workers were very rude when I asked to take some items off of the order. For the price of the torta, the asada should be better quality as well. I'm glad I tried it to tell people to spend their money elsewhere. Find another small business to eat from. read more

The torta was amazing. 'MY son and I wanted to try it so we shared la tóxica. It was freshly made and super delicious. The ham was so good. Can't wait to try the other selections read more

Quite possibly the best sandwich I've ever tasted. If not it's right up there. I had the number 10 breaded steak ham and "pork leg". Freaking amazing flavor best meal I've had on the road in a while. Don't be afraid Gringos just dive in! read more

The place that is open is on 98th St on the Westside. The one on Central/International District is closed. Everything I've tried here has been delicious. Get la toxica, add chips, thank me later. Aguas are a little sweet and pricey for my taste but my kids love them. This is the kind of place that would be mobbed by foodies in CA or East Coast, gotta love ABQ for keeping it a chill locals' spot. read more

DonTortas - Las mejores tortas de albuquerque !!! # toxica - Mexican Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

I drive through Albuquerque for work, and I always stop here. These are honestly the best tortas I have ever had besides homemade ones. I really wish they had more locations, especially in California. They're also very quick and friendly. I recommend stopping here if you're passing through Albuquerque read more

Horrible experience. I ordered a Number 10 & a number 12. Along with two agua frescas all in all about $40. Waited almost an hour for this order. When received the order was completely wrong they made a completely different torta from what I ordered. I personally believe the tortas was not worth it's price and the service was not worth the amount of money and time I spent at Don Tortas. I personally would not recommend read more

I saw a tik tok of this place and it was given good reviews. I forgot the creators tik tok name or else I would have provided that. After getting water I told my dad if he wanted to get a torta he said yes so we went. The customer service was awesome and they spoke Spanish which pretty cool. My torta was delicious and so were the fries my dad liked his to. The torta was big I wasn't expecting that. I would definitely recommend this place. read more

Don Tortas is amazing!!!! Great service, clean, and most importantly DELICIOUS!!!!! If you are in Albuquerque you need to give it a try. Will definitely be coming back. read more

Let's just say that the tortas are amazing! The flavors, the meat, the sauces!!! Can't wait to go back. Super nice staff. Definitely going back soon. read more

The portion was large as well as the drink. The torta was really good you can tell they use the best quality in products. My only issue was the price. For my Hawaiian Torta and a large horchata I paid $19.06. Other than than this place has good potential and I can't wait to try the desserts! read more

Disappointing is an understatement. I ate here when they first opened. I ordered one of their more specialty Tortas, I believe it was "La Perrona." The total ended up being over $17.00 for just the sandwich and fries, no drink. For this price I could have gone down the street and had an enchilada plate, chips and salsa, a soda, a slice of cheese cake, and table side service. The order took a bout 20 minutes which I guess is understandable since they had just opened and I assume they were still getting things figured out. The sandwich I received was super oily to the point that it soaked through the bread. The bread was also soggy and had an undercooked texture. I was supposed to have gotten Milanesa meat, which usually is a breaded filet, as well as smoked pork chop, ham and beef franks. What I received was a pie of chopped up meat that was apparently all cooked in the same sauce together with no real distinction between what was what. My $15 sandwich also had ONE slice of avocado, and a few shreds of lettuce. The order of fries I received, which were an extra charge, was hardly a kids portion and they were dry and stale with no seasoning or salt. The order also came with a a small ramekin of bland salsa that was only a quarter of the way full and the same amount of ketchup in another. I don't even want to know what a grilled Jalapeño would have cost me, which is something normally included with a meal like this from any other place. In a city that one can easily find a quality Torta for less than half the price, even from a food truck, this place needs to do some home work and figure out their competition. I mean within three square blocks this place you can find way better examples. And with the extraordinary charges this place is wanting people to pay, the quality is definitely not there. I Expected the meal to live up to the name of "Don Tortas," but sadly it was more like "Don Shortas." read more
