Was very disappointed flimsy Paper plates and the food was not good at all. Tamales were Sandy and the pancakes rubbery. Expected more. Won't be going back. Wasted my money! I gave it a one and it does not deserve it. The plates were foam. The cheapest you can buy When we cut our food with the plastic knife it tore through the plate and leaked. What a waste of my money! read more

This was my first visit to this location. Service was great! Very friendly and attentive staff. A couple things on the order were wrong, but they fixed it quickly with a smile. The food was delicious!! read more

Garcia's Kitchen - The roaming gnome and his sopapillas - New Mexican Cuisine Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

Garcia's Kitchen, unfortunately I can't recommend this place to anyone. My friend and I had been warned not to visit, but we went anyway because we didn't think it would be that bad... let me tell you from experience, it is that bad. The only reason I didn't give one star is because the servers were very polite, the customer service was great. We arrived for breakfast when they opened. It wasn't very busy at all, the atmosphere seemed nice, everything seemed like it was going to go well. We ordered drinks, ice water and coffee. The coffee was terrible. It tasted very thin and watered down. The coffee cups were a travesty. For one, they were dirty, two they were chipped. We didn't want to complain, so we ordered some to-go cups of hot chocolate. When it came time to order, my friend got an omelette with papas, beans, and a side of green chili. I ordered the red chili chicharron burrito. My burrito was fine, but my friends omelette was disgusting. It had a layer of cheese over it that looked like rubber. The potatoes had zero flavor, the beans were the only thing that were decent. The side of green chili was watery and didn't have any taste. The silverware was also dirty. Overall the food was unfortunate. My friend and I won't be returning, and will not be regarding this place. read more

See all

Food is always great. Service is crappy most of the time, make sure to ask for plastic because they will never offer it for to-go orders. Also, if you call in a to-go order from Santa Fe, your order may, or may not be ready by the time you arrive. We dined in once and the waitress was excellent!! read more

Garcia's Kitchen - Ordered Fajita Plate, but just got burrito, they gave me the rice and beans on the side after I pointed out the mistake. Delicious!! - New Mexican Cuisine Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

Garcia's has always been a favorite of mine! I love that they have a new location on the west side of town. Their food is just as delicious during the pandemic. I love the online ordering options and curbside. Being 7 months pregnant Garcia's makes it easy to get my favorite New Mexican food! I love the cheese enchiladas with refried beans and papas with red on the side! Delicious!! read more

Garcia's Kitchen - Cheese Enchilada Plate - New Mexican Cuisine Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

The food was good, although not what we had ordered- we had ordered breakfast burritos and just got the plain burritos, but it was still delicious. However the reason for the low stars was the service. We watched 3 tables around us get refills, checked in on, and given extra things like more tortillas and salsa while we were unable to get a refill on drinks or even see a waitstaff once our food was dropped off. It was clear the servers and manager knew the other tables which is why they were being taken care of. If you don't know anyone who works there don't expect any service. read more

Went in to have breakfast on Sunday morning with my boys we waited 45 minutes for our plate that is ridiculous, I asked to speak to the manager and she sat down with us and she thought because we didn't have to wait to be seated that that should be OK I told her I'd never ever wait 45 minutes again at a restaurant!, The waitress didn't even have the courtesy to at least let us know that there is a shortage and sorry about the wait same excuse as it always, shortage read more

Yummy! I was needing a nm food fix that didn't come out of my kitchen. I'm a huge smothered chicken burrito fan and I can't make them myself. Decided to try this place out as I had seen it on my drive before and I must say I was very happy with my order. Unlike several other reviews, they did get my order right and they were fast and friendly at curbside pickup. I ordered Christmas to try out both and enjoyed both the red and green. I also picked up a handheld bean burrito and some tacos. Both were tasty, not the best I've had but definitely wouldn't mind ordering those again. The chicken burrito was the star for me and I will definitely be back again. I also hope to try their breakfast burritos based on the flavor of both Chile's I tried today. read more

Don't order online for delivery unless you enjoy getting the wrong order. When I called their "solution" was to come to the restaurant and wait at least 10-15 minutes to get the replacement. If I had wanted to do that, I wouldn't have ordered delivery. read more

I placed an order at this location today. I got a text saying it'll be ready in 20-30 minutes. I showed up at the time I was quoted and called to let them know which numbered spot I was in. The guy said it was ready and would be right out. Over the next 20 minutes, they brought out a credit card and receipt for me to sign, even though I had prepaid; and the name on the card was a woman's name. Then they brought over an order and asked what I ordered. Turns out that wasn't my order; I belonged to someone named Larry. Then they brought out another order and that was for someone named Alma. I asked to speak to a manager at this point and 5 minutes later they brought out what they said was my order. I asked if they were sure it was mine and the guy said yes. I asked where the manager was and he said "I don't know but that's your order" So I left. After getting home, I checked my ordered. It was wrong. They gave me 3 meals; two combination plates and a taco plate. And stale cold sopapillas. I won't be going back. Terrible food. No attention to details and total disorganization. read more

The food here is reliably good New Mexican food. During CoVid you need to pick up right away so your sopapillas don't get soggy in the bag. Also beware that if you order thru their website it goes to door dash and you have to go inside to pick up. I used their website thinking i was going direct to restaurant to order but it sends you to door dash and doesn't warn you about this anywhere on the website. read more

Kind of pricey but good grub. I particularly like the chicharones burrito. I would like more sauce! They go light. Have to request extra

Not very good experience. I got seated pretty quick although it was busy but as soon as I sat down the manager was banging on the glass to let them in. Very unprofessional. Also the food was very mid, the eggs were grainy. Also I got the wrong order, wasn't even supposed to have eggs. Then I go to buy some salsa and I'm told it was 6.99 but then I'm told total is 8.41. I understand taxes but what!? Server was good though! That's why it wasn't 1 star read more

I really want to give a 4 rating, but instead I will give it a 3.5.. I can't put my finger on the problem, but it's going on in the Kitchen. The Servers are wonderful, there's a good feeling in the restaurant, but it took an inordinate amount of time to get our food and it was ok/good., I had the carne adavoda breakfast with sopapillas. The sopapillas were cod and rubbery, the Carne Adavoda was very good but not a lot of it or cooking hot. The people who came after us, got there or quickly and everything was fresh. I can see why their rating is inconsistent. It's kind of like the kitchen read more

So disappointed! Was looking forward to eating breakfast here. It was awful! The brand were undercooked, sopapillas were thick doughy and greasy. The eggs were over cooked and potatoes were hard almost crunchy. Green chili was good. Worst New Mexican food I've had... read more

I was a loyal customer to Garcias during the pandemic. I ordered/picked up for my family weekly I have noticed a decline in quality since they have cut their hours to 5 days a week. Food just doesn't taste the same I recently went to the restaurant on Coors/Montano. We ordered chips and salsa with our meal. We ran out of salsa and asked for another. When our bill came we were charged $1.50 for the chips and salsa as expected. What We didn't expect was to be charged $1.40 for the extra salsa. No longer a Loyal Garcia's customer. read more

Ordered tacos online and it was quick and easy. Food was fresh and delicious! Give it a try. Love the new location too.

Service was TERRIBLE 8mins before our waitress came to our table, she did not get our drink order right or come back to asked if we needed anything before our food arrived and after. read more

The Only reason they are getting 2 stars is because our waitress was good. We hadn't been to Garcia's in quite a while so we decided to give it another try and now I know why we Do NOT go there. We ordered a combination plate and beef fajitas and sopapillas our sides were refried beans and Papas.. The green Chile tasted like it had been burned, the papas tasted like they were yesterdays or maybe even last weeks, the sopapillas tasted as if they had been there for hours or days (for sure they were there since breakfast/lunch) Shame on the managers for allowing the food to be sent out looking and tasting that way. If that's the representation that Garcias is allowing, no wonder the food trucks are thriving. Overall.. Nothing tasted fresh read more

Just got home with a call in order. Should have checked my order. Not what I ordered. How could anyone mess up burritos. Horrible and sloppy. The sopas were cold and doughy. Never go there again. read more

Ordered on line to pick up my food 2 hours later, and I selected a time to pick up. Went in to pick up my food at the time I selected -- ask 3 times and was told a few minutes longer. Unfortunately 30 minutes later I needed to leave and without food. Disappointed. Manager Estevan stated he couldn't give me a refund since I ordered on line. read more

I consistently visited the Garcia's on 4th street since I moved to New Mexico and I love Garcia's. Now this new location is closer to where I live which is convenient, welcome to the neighborhood. Great customer service, great food and very friendly. Keep up the good work please. read more

Gone to this location twice now and each time they completely botched our order. The food is good but the ordering online is awful. Make sure you check your orders before you leave the parking lot!! read more

I have a small service dog and when I go out to eat at places I have her lay beside me on the chair or booth because there was an incident when she was injured by a waitress from a dropped plate since she's so small she was hurt pretty bad so that's why she stays beside me so she can perform her task and when I came into Garcia's the waitress would not let her be beside me and wanted her to lay on their dirty floor even though she's trained to lay on the chair beside me they obviously need more education on people who have service dogs and their needs read more

The place was pretty empty but they said there was a 30 minute wait and it's not that long so me and my family waited. Almost 2 hours passed and we called them and said if they were ready, and they were they just forgot to call us. On top of that they brought my dad the wrong plate. The food was not so good, I would say there are better New Mexican/Mexican food way better than Garcías. read more

Terrible service! Waited 30 minutes with zero service this morning. We finally decided to leave. I would recommend going to the Garcia's kitchen express up the street in Taylor ranch. Always great service at that location. read more
