While visiting a friend in Albuquerque, she insisted that we eat here. She explained that it is a…read morefamily owned restaurant with patronage from the community, not tourists, making it a favorite destination of hers. We were seated quickly, and with a smile. The server was fun, explained the menu with pride, and made us comfortable. The food arrived quickly, and was filling. I found the steak fingers to be overcooked and tasteless, but the rest was great. For me, the sopaipillas were the star. They were fresh, light, and delicious. I miss eating in New Mexico where it seems most dinners include them. I got a slice of carrot cake to go, and it too was delicious. If you enjoy a family-centered filling New Mexican meal, you can't go wrong with Mac's. Enjoy!

As for the food, all I can say is THE RED CHILE is the BEST I have ever had, I'm serious! I long to know their recipe because it really is that good! This year for Christmas we got a quart of red chile and some tamales and they did not disappoint! I only learned of this place within the last year and I will definitely be back again and again! Seriously you have to try the red chile!!! #supportlocal

El Charrito is a beautiful establishment, well maintained and beautifully decorated inside and out. The food is delicious too! If you are unsure of what to get, I would highly recommend the "Button Buster". The steak fingers are delicious, and in my opinion better to than Mac's..

First time here. I…read moream traveling through New Mexico. I just stopped for a bite to eat. This place is very unusual... the chef is the owner and his food is delicious. I say unusual because the food is a cut above what you would expect ...this place has live jazz on Tuesdays. It's fairly small but the food and coffee are fabulous. He made a bowl for me with pinto beans, organic squash, delicious pork, with some cheese on top. Very flavorful. The coffee was basically a cappuccino. Very good. On my way back I can't wait to try his ribeye steak and a world famous margarita. It says in here he tales credit cards but he doesn't. However he tales checks and cash. I didn't have any cash on me so I wrote him a check That's the first check I've written in a long time LOL I definitely recommend this place 100%

If you are Ben Michael, you are the host, waiter, bartender, chef, bus boy cashier and entertainer. Cash only. Entrees are $15-$33.

The exterior and "lobby" area make it look like the restaurant is on the small side with limited seating, but it extends quite far back with indoor table options and an extensive back patio area for a nice ambiance to enjoy your New Mexican cuisine. Service was very leisurely, but we didn't mind, as we were catching up with friends who've moved to the area and haven't seen in several years. The chips and salsa aren't complementary, though the waiter made it seem that way when he casually asked if we wanted some when we were seated. Plentiful cocktail and drink menu, as well as appetizers and entrees. I was happy with my selection of Spanish/fried chile rellenos, and I had it with the salsa "Christmas style", with both green and red salsa. It was flavorful with just the right amount of heat, and the rice and beans hit the spot. I couldn't wait to take the leftovers home for snacking the next day. Kids' menu has the typical offerings, and the fries on the side are abundant. We had sopapillas (like fried dough) with honey after our entrees, which was included with the adult meals. A very nice dining experience in the historic Old Town neighborhood!
