    Bean 1 Burrito Plate
    Klf B.

    Food was rated an average of 7. I personally thought it was very expensive. Service was fast and they came by the table several times. Place looked like a New Mexican restaurant with Great Wall coverings.

    Paper thin sopapilla

    La Salita has been my go to place for the best Chile Relleno in town. Crispy, good red chile. I also love their enchiladas, especially with Swiss cheese. We have eaten here or have gotten takeout dozens of times. Our last visit was not great and so surprised I am writing a review. We visited last night, Saturday, around 5:30. Decided to eat in this time. Staff was nice as always. When our platters came out, the cheese was not melted and the rice was cold. Beans were hot. First bite of enchilada and we knew this wasn't cooked right. Still hard, not melted, and lukewarm inside too. Relleno was ok but the fact that these platters were not fully heated was disappointing. Finally, the sopapillas were so small and thin (see photo) that was the last straw. Even though most places in ABQ provide sopas complimentary, you pay at La Salita. I would expect them to be better. I really hope this visit was an anomaly since we have had so many good meals here.

    I was here last Friday!

    Crispy fries, two delicious turkey tacos, fantastic green chili, refried beans -- all for $5.75 (before tax and tip) on taco Tuesday. You get a choice of two sides, and it was filling. Nice and friendly staff. There are specials daily. Food came out fast. Enjoyable! Clean dining area! Head on over!

    I'm sorry to report that the food quality has slipped on our last few (3) visits. Service is still outstanding and friendly, and portions are still large (as they should be, given the pricing), but . . . well, on our most recent visit for instance, my wife's enchiladas were flat cold (mine were piping hot) and she felt the tortillas hadn't been fried before assembly. I suggested she speak up but we were there with guests and she didn't want to make a fuss. Well, it turned out neither of our guests thought much of their plates, either. As I said, my food was fine on this last visit - although I'm also noticing the plates I've been getting haven't been the same "I can't wait to return" eats that I had here when I posted my first (4-star) review. Comparing the recent visits here to the recent experiences I've had in similar New Mexican restaurants in Albuquerque and Santa Fe leave me with the realization that I haven't been too impressed with the cooking at La Salita lately. Anyhow, my experience has been that my recent visits to La Salita were such that I would no longer tell a friend, "Oh yeah, you HAVE to get in there." We'll keep La Salita in the rotation (at a reduced frequency, I'm afraid), and I'll write another review should things change.

    The best chili rellano ever !!!
    John R.

    This is THE BEST chili rellano I've ever had , options of cheese the the exterior crunch was so amazing. I don't live in Albuquerque but I have plans to travel through just to stop and eat here ... fyi when asked red or green , doesn't matter they will both blow an O ring the next day.
