We haven't be here in a long time, when we were not used to New Mexican food, so we were hesitant to come back. Had family in town and gave it another try. So glad we did, it was a great experience for a large group. There were 8 of us and no complaints, that is always a win! The food is delicious, definitely very New Mexican though, so make sure that is what you are wanting. There was a long wait time for a table, which is typical for a Friday night most places. The food came out fast and are good portions. Service was amazing: quick, correct, were on top of drink refills, to go boxes and bags, and great teamwork and energy from staff. read more

We decided to sit at the bar and enjoy drinks and dinner. They make some great margaritas on the rocks. When they ask if you want green or red sauce on your enchiladas, don't fall for the green sauce is milder. Ask for the sauce on the side. I got green sauce on my pork enchiladas and had to get some guacamole to keep my tongue from burning up. The Carne Adovada is excellent. Very flavorful pork. read more

While I miss the location on Eubank, this is a nice alternative. While I was home for Christmas, I was craving a Roberto's special. I asked my sister if we could go to Sadie's. So, my niece, her husband, my sister, and I got in the car. I was surprised at the size and decor of this location. Even though I know that this is a newer construction, the inside faithfully recreates Southwest style decor. I was impressed by the higher ceilings and the "adobe" style niches. The menu is the same as other locations. However, I found my Roberto's special to be the best one I've ever had. The burger was perfectly seasoned and cooked to my liking. The queso was rich and creamy. The potatoes were crisp on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The beans were just wonderful with the queso. I was perfectly content with my lunch. Everyone else really enjoyed their food. All of them took food home. Service was decent. My iced tea was empty a few times. I will happily return, next time I'm home. read more

Outstanding! By far, the best Mexican food I've ever had! I ordered beef brisket tacos. The meat melted in my mouth! I've been here once before on a road trip across the country. I chose the route this year across country to include Albuquerque just so we could eat at Sadie's. Highly recommend this place!!!!! Amazing. You will thank me. read more

I ordered delivery from Sadie's as I was missing one of my old favorites. Still tasty food. Portions seem a tad smaller and this time I noticed I had to order chips and salsa separately, which was an additional charge. I don't know if that's just with delivery but in the past when I've ordered carry out it comes with chips and salsa. I also wasn't sure if I was gonna get a sopapilla so I ordered an order of sopapillas, which was an additional charge. I believe prior I was given one sopapilla, but again, the description didn't say whether I would get one or not. Might be helpful for them to clarify their menu a bit. Overall, it was expensive for a delivery order. I did get two meals out of it, but it was still costly. I still highly recommend this local favorite even though I will limit my ordering due to "shrinkflation" and increased costs that are affecting restaurants across the board. read more

Sadie's - Roberto's Special with all papas, Christmas, chips and salsa, and sopapilla. - New Mexican Cuisine Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

It's been awhile since my last stuffed sopapilla. Sadie's did not disappoint! I had the stuffed sopapilla with carne adovada a la carte. The meat was tender and flavorful and the sauce tasted of a labor of love. Tortilla chips with a red chile salsa was offered before ordering. This was a large amount of food for the cost. I had more than enough left over for the next day. The server also brought over a basket of fresh hot sopapillas on the side. Large crowds on a Saturday night but the staff kept the tables turning quickly. Service was friendly and efficient. My server checked up periodically to make sure I had everything I need and refill water. Unfortunately, was too enamored (and hungry) with my sopapilla to take a picture but I would definitely be back! read more

Went for lunch with a group, we wanted to sit outside - it was not busy and they had no problem sitting us there, which also led to more customers wanting to sit and enjoy the weather! Service was good the whole time, a couple mishaps in some orders but nothing that was not corrected right away! The food was good, we all enjoyed our meals and drinks! The sopapillas are dangerous!!! Like I could eat an entire basket to myself...if you don't put the honey on them you are doing it wrong!! Also cool to see they are adding a location inside the airport! Love to see when airports are willing to support local restaurants and shops! read more

We were looking for some good New Mexican food while staying in Albuquerque, and we found it at Sadie's. Excellent chips and guacamole, chile relleno, and enchiladas. We were very satisfied with our entrees. The restaurant is very large and can easily accommodate groups. It was very busy, and we had a short wait to be seated. Our server was attentive and took care of us well. read more

We visit Sadie's at least once a month. The staff is wonderful and the good is always on par! I always have left overs because I HAVE TO eat my sopapilla there while it's still warm! And there's not a bad spot to sit, every table is a great spot. read more

I thought my meal was really gross almost in edible. It was just a plate of slop with the texture of wet food in the kitchen sink. My bfs quesadilla tasted like cat food. The table salsa was really great though. Flavorful and had a nice kick! Service was slow, bless the poor waitress though, you could tell they were understaffed. Sad read more

Our uber driver recommended Sadie's and I'm so glad they did! The cheese enchiladas were tasty, the side of beans and potatoes were a great addition. The chili con queso was melty cheesey yumminess. The chips were fresh, the sopapillas were warm doughy and so good. The salsa was fresh and had a bit of a kick. The margaritas were pretty average but I'd come back for the food and great service. read more

I was in town visiting a friend and stopped at Sadie's because it is very well reviewed and recommended for being authentic New Mexican food. It was a huge portion, I think in exchange for fresh food you get a larger quantity. It was good enough, the enchiladas were ground beef and not very noteworthy. I also got a house margarita which definitely was mixer and on the sweet side. read more

Food and food safety. Was served a bloody Mary with discolored and foul smelling celery, obviously spoiled and unsafe to eat.

Sadie's is truly an excellent choice for Mexican food! The service is great, and the restaurant is very clean. The food itself is outstanding--you get large portions that are bursting with excellent flavors. If you're looking for quality, cleanliness, and a satisfying meal, this is the place to go! Don't sleep on the green salsa! read more

This place was recommended to us by a local foodie in New Mexico. It's an old establishment Their food is decent. The wait time from ordering until the food comes out could be improved, but it's not too bad considering how crowded they are. The only 5/5 dish is the chips and salsa, which ironically is complimentary. read more

I had carne adovada and it was amazing! The beans were perfectly cooked and the papitos were also fried to a crispy perfection. The adovada is baked so that all that red chili soaks into the pork. It is served with sopapillas that are also excellent. One of the best New Mexican meals I've ever eaten. read more

Always great food and great service We go there at least once a week and they never changes.

Good service and a good vibe. Good was just Ok. They uncharged for everything and then did not even have the beef on my chili rellano (sp). read more

Great lunch with my mama at Sadie's!! We split the chicken fajitas-- more than enough food for 2 people we took home leftovers! Sadie's has the most delicious salsa, and we enjoyed the value classic margarita! Service is always good because they have hosts, bus boys, food runners, and you have a server (so there's always someone around if you need anything). I do prefer the original Sadie's on the west side for the beautiful decor, layout, and live music. read more

Came back again and had a good meal overall! The server was super nice but very slow and hard to track down if you needed a refill on water or anything else. We didn't wait too long, maybe 10-15 minutes, to get in even though they were busy. We sat on the other side of the restaurant and they had special sopapillas for St Patrick's Day which was cute (although we didn't get any, just heard or saw others). Still a good option but felt a little less on top of things compared to last time! read more

This place was recommended by locals. I wanted to try something with green chile and it was breakfast time. Enter: Huevos Rancheros! I added bacon and it came (delivery) super fresh and crispy, almost like it was deep fried. I got sopapillas w honey, extra tortillas, and salsa w fresh chips. I added a side of avocado and am pretty sure I was given 1/2 if not a whole fresh avocado neatly sliced. Everything was packaged with care. As soon as I tried the salsa, it was spicy and fresh and I had to breathe w my mouth open..i knew then this place was YUMMY. I was at a dr office and told the staff who referred me here: terrific rec! read more

This is my favorite restaurant, Starting with the hamburger stand on second Street, the bowling alley on 4th and the restaurant on Academy. huge delicious portions served by happy people. There is no need to dine elsewhere. New Mexican food at it's very best. read more

The place with Mexican decor was packed. I enjoyed my margarita. The waiter was good. I ordered the small nachos. It was more than I could eat in three sittings. However, regardless of what I order, the food always looks like it is thrown and piled high on the plate. If you have no worries about your cholesterol or weight, this is the place for you. Definitely not for those who want to manage their food intake. The nachos also had burn marks on it. Why do folks love this place? read more

Always a treat when I go to Albuquerque on business! Service was great and the food.... LARGE PORTIONS and every thing I ate was delicious. Chips and salsa are good and spicy but I love the spice! And of course, like mentioned, the sopapillas (that are free) make a great ending to a wonderful meal! It was happy hour so I had the house Margarita which definitely was on point. Do yourself a favor and go to one of these locations. They won't disappoint! read more

Best food I have had in ABQ so far. We came back to eat just Sopapillas. We are vegetarian and asked for Stuffed Sopapillas with Calabasitas, side of calabasitas and guacamole. It came with 2 sopapillas on the side too. We don't get sopapillas in California, so we tried them at a couple of restuarants here and Sadies has so the best ones we had. Their chips, Salsa, hot and green sauces were v flavorful. Their service was v good. The food came out pretty fast. I think this places has been underrated. read more

(June 2025) After an exhausting but fun day sightseeing, my wife and I had dinner here. I ordered the Sadie's Stuffed Sopaipilla Dinner ($15.99) with shredded chicken (+ $3.60), while my wife got the Dinner Salad ($6.39), one Rolled Cheese Enchilada, ($7.99), and one Rolled Cheese Enchilada with shredded beef ($7.99 + $0.90). Both enchiladas were from the A La Carte section of the menu. Anyway, despite it being pretty busy for a Sunday night, the service and food were great! read more

We loved this place! The staff was excellent and the sopapillas with honey were magical. Good prices too!

Luis was a terrible server from the start. We had asked to switch from a table to a booth which seemed to bother him. He took our orders with zero professionalism. After taking our orders he brought out our food but we never saw him again until we got the bill which another server had to tell him to bring us. Johnny on the other hand who wasn't our server but refilled my mothers drink, brought us to go containers, informed us that the red chili had flour and went and got Luis to bring us our bill was extremely helpful and professional. I really wish I would have had cash to give him. Even though he wasn't our server, he was the one that took care of us, had he not, we would still be sitting there waiting. Luis walked past us at least five times without checking on us. I informed one of the managers right as we were walking out about how terrible the service was. My mother enjoyed the food which is the only reason for the additional star. read more

Had a coupon for a free entree if you order one and two drinks. What a deal! Love this place for their huge nachos. Had the small nachos with brisket and it was more than enough for two people. I think it could have fed a total of 4 people! DIL ordered a hamburger with chiles on it and fries and everything was spot on! Our server Elijah was super friendly and nice. Didn't catch the name of the gal who got us more nachos and refilled our sodas but everyone is super friendly. Definitely a place to stop in and have a good time with friends. read more

We went in with a rather large group on a Friday night. Our wait was about 30 minutes, but well worth it. The chips and salsa are quite delicious and have a good spice level.
