While the majority of what is offered are imported packaged spices, beverages and canned goods, the star of the show, for me at least, was the deli section of meats and cheeses! As a German I can't pass up certain meats like Gelbwurst or my favorite, Leberkaese! knowing there's a market that offers my favorites helps me with being homesick for these treats! Eurozone also offers day old Broetchen from a different store which is nice as well. The atmosphere here is relaxed and while there are quite a few options, it doesn't feel overwhelming at all! I thoroughly enjoyed browsing the various shelves for all the different options provided. I'll definitely be back soon!

The quality of the products were good and they even had some excellent fresh fish as well. This is a lovely store with an abundance of polish and Russian foods. I'll be back....oh and the kindness of the owner ( I'm assuming) was so kindly, it was like being warmly greeted by family.

The stores are spotless and well-organized and they always have some samples to try. Their prickly pear blend makes the iced tea I crave - I'm addicted.

Really cute boutique tea shop that just opened 2 weeks ago according to the employee. There were a…read morelot of options for tea, more than I could ever possibly try in a lifetime haha. They were giving some free samples and I had the pleasure of tasting the banana bread coffee tea, and it was so good so I purchased one. I loved how it was smooth, flavorful and has a subtle banana note to it. They only added a tiny bit of cane sugar to a whole pitcher and honestly that's all it needed. The service was friendly and I formative, and I loved how cute the shop was. I look forward to my next tea purchase here!

I went in hoping for a wide and dizzying array of spicy products, but was instantly confused, as I…read morewas greeted with many, many glass figurines and touristy bric-a-brac. I eventually found the hot sauce section, which, incidentally, is incredibly well organized, including the cool display for the Ass Kickin' stuff (prices on the hot sauces are outstanding and there are several I have seen here and nowhere else), but I wish the rest of the store was organized similarly. The entire thing screams clutter and spicy products (I think, I tried really hard to find them all, but maybe (probably) missed some) are maybe 20% of the floor space. The rest is coffee and mugs and t-shirts and pinon stuff and just random...shit. Back to my confusion...I don't understand why this place is called Chile ADdict when so little of the inventory is related to piquancy. I guess calling it a gift shop would be less interesting, maybe? Anyway, if you have a lot of time and patience to spend carefully hunting and foraging around this (sometimes precariously and hapazardly) scattered array, it can definitely be rewarding, but it won't be fast.

I really wanted to fall in love with Sergio's, but sadly we are not meant to be. We've had some…read morecompatibility issues over the years. We discovered Sergio's in 2023. They had an insane pizza deal on Fridays. Was the pizza amazing? No, but the deal was! Wings, pizza, salad, AND a dessert! All for $30. Crazy!! They also had crazy pastry deals like buy a dozen donuts get a dozen free! The first time we went, we had an incredible experience. Incredible! That first experience was so good that it kept us coming back. Yet, Every. Single. Time. We went back we had issues. Some of the issues we've experienced included: losing our order, waiting over an hour for our food, attitudes on the phone, and outdated information on their website. When they lost our ticket order we waited (not exaggerating) OVER an hour for our food. They didnt even apologize lol I'm not looking for a comp on food, but damn not even an apology? We waited there, in person, at the restaurant. Another time I called to order a muffaletta. The girl on the phone had no idea what I was talking about. Then she said there's no such thing on the menu that sounds like that. I get put on hold. I wait for 6 minutes then someone else answers the phone and says it's not the day of the special (they changed it). I call to order a sub. They no longer make subs past a certain time, but that's not updated on the menu on their website. We call and at times no one answers the phone. So we have to call a few more times to only have the phone answered by an exasperated employee. I can't keep up with Sergio's. Sergio's has left us in the dust lol I truly wanted to love this place. The food is good, the prices great, and the first time we went was so fantastic that we held onto that experience despite all the issues that kept happening afterwards. I think we're gonna stick with Yeller Sub & Tully's going forward. Also, if you are looking for delicious Italian dishes be sure to check out Il Localetto Rossi in Nob Hill.

Food- check Atmosphere- check…read more Cleanliness- check Friendliness- check Speed- eh The food is seriously good. Tried the Quad Pizza (added green chili), and 6 count wings plus fries. Wings are decent size and cooked right. The fries though- damn good fries. Pizza- we hit a rush and something went wrong. Not sure if ours was slipped or given away BUT the cashier/waitress figured it out before we did, tried to make it right with us while we were waiting for the pizza to be re-made. Yeah, it was a long wait, but again- the food is amazing and they caught their own mistake, and did their best to make good. That's a sign of a great place in my book. I also got a dessert togo for later. I'm not going to say which one so it's not sold out every time I go- but the desserts are delicious.

Back in late November 2025, I was in Albuquerque, NM, fulfilling my loved ones' Christmas shopping…read morelist wishes. Before leaving town, I headed to the Eastside for Chocolate Cartel. The name certainly intrigued me, but their slogan did too: no fluff . no flair . the best cacao . I was in! While I didn't experience any "fluff," I thought that their chocolates actually did have some flair. They do have items for those bougie friends. Lol. I ordered a sample 6-pack truffle box ($19) that my daughters and I split together: Bee Pollen, Lavender Vanilla, Flowers of Italy, Green Chile & Salt, Pistachio in White, and Peppermint. I really should have gotten a bigger box after seeing how excited my girls were about this. Next time... I also enjoyed a discounted (due to it being broken) green chile and salt chocolate bar. They outsource other niceties: air fresheners, candles, and gelato. I wish I had stomach space for the gelato, but next time! Very nice, helpful service on the 26th. Overall, it is chocolate done maybe a bit simple yet exceedingly well.

I think the Cartel needs a more current review, so I am adding mine…read more I have been buying my specialty chocolate here since they opened the Albuquerque store in 2009. I have tried almost all the other local chocolatiers, and while they are all good, I keep coming back to the Cartel. Nuff said.

If you're driving by, it doesn't seem like the type of place I would stop at, just cause of the way…read morethe signage is, it wouldn't have gotten me to stop. But I'm glad I did! I found out about this place from the good reviews on Yelp, and it was also the only place that actually answered the phone for me. I called 5 places and this place was the only one that had any kind of customer service. When I walked in, I was greeted by the friendly cashier and two other guys that seemed like they owned the place. The customer service was so good, they made recommendations, gave me generous samples and wanted to make sure I was happy with the purchase I made. The jerky is really good, I loved the Christmas one the best, but they were all good!

We have been passing by Taaj Place for a while and we finally stopped to try their lunch buffet…read more The place is big and nicely decorated. The host and servers were very attentive, a bit on the shy side but very nice. The options for lunch included multiple vegetarian and non vegetarian options, with all the naan you could wish for! I had some butter chicken, tandoori chicken, goat, a stuffed pastry, breaded vegetables, and rice, with mango creme custard for desert. My favorite was the butter chicken because it was smooth and tasty. The tandoori chicken had good flavor but was a bit dry. The goat was too oily for my taste but was tender, with good flavor. The stuffed pastry was interesting; I think the stuffing was filled with minced tandoori chicken and pickled carrots. The mango custard was liquid but the flavor was a glorious ending to the meal. Overall, this was a decent experience with multiple options. Even though the non-vegetarian dishes were a bit oily, they had good flavor. I'm still interested in à la carte menu for another time.
