He said made here so I have to try that too. Frito pie has lettuce, onions tomato, beef and red chili with cheese. Omg!! This is amazing Frito pie!! I have had a lot of Frito pies a this is one of the best!! Also got a cup of posole. It okay, missing something. Maybe a spice, but it is decent. Too much fat on the pork made the posole very greasy. I don't know about the tea. Had a taste to it like when it starts to almost sit too long. Next time I'll just have water. Music playing; TVs had games on and staff was friendly Food as great but made me feel heavy after. I will come back as there are so many items on the menu to try.

Awesome Atmosphere!

Enjoy all the art and the shop next door, it's likely you will take home something more than a full belly.

First impression when I got my order was that the portion of fries was small. Once I started eating them though I was impressed with how much queso was actually on there! I had enough cheese at the bottom to dip some bites of burger in after the fries were gone. The burger was delicious too and I was surprised with the perfection of the heat- it was very flavorful and definitely kept building as I was eating. I was a bit concerned the burger would be dry on the edges that the cheese didn't reach but luckily it was still tasty. Cooked well and perfect balance of toppings. I do still think its a bit pricey but it seemed on par with the other options at the block.

It might be the best one we had EVER! We were staying at the Tamaya resort and wanted something nearby that was simple and we were very pleased.

We will definitely be returning when we're in Albuquerque again!

My wish fe and I were excited to ear lunch yesterday Thursday, July 9, 2026 and had our first bad experience. I ordered a Hatch Burger and my wife ordered a Chicken cobb salad. The burger was warm and the fries were cold. My wife's salad had four pieces of chicken as best and the lettuce and veggies weren't fresh. The waitress (Xandria) was awesome though. She took matters into her own hands and had the manage cut our ticket 50%. That was fine, but it is clear that management has changed a few things that just aren't working. The main reason for my three stars is to ensure that something is done about how food quality has suffered! We don't want TMB going down!

(That is why they're almost all gone) Second, the burger is amazing. Super juicy, extremely flavorful and perfectly cooked. The green chili is actually salted, which adds a very complex flavor that a lot of other restaurants don't do and can't even compete with. I am not sure how they cook their burgers, but they are extremely juicy, unlike any other, not to mention the tomatoes, which have a wonderful flavor! To top it all off the diet Dr Pepper washes it all down gracefully. I don't know the manager's name, but he has long black hair; he was extremely friendly. Had superb customer service skills and treated me as though I was family. I will definitely be coming back to this restaurant and anybody reading this review should highly consider THIS SPECIFIC LOCATION! Even if it's a 20 mile drive, snowing and the world is ending; as it would be worth all of the trouble! Thank you guys/gals so much for the best renegade burger I have ever eaten, I will be back!

I walked in around 6pm yesterday and it's fever dream inside. They are like 2% of a Rainforest Cafe with scattered random decor- a rhinoceros head on the wall, a pirate guarding the bathrooms, old school signs and my favorite- a golf cart two top (which was unfortunately taken). My visit started off weak, the cashier was not very friendly and the AC was out- it was definitely over 85 degrees inside. I started to get hesitant, I asked myself- "why did we come here?" But then- we got out food, and holy moly!! What a juicy, delicious burger with fresh and loaded toppings. I can't tell you the last time I had such a good burger and the sweet potato fries... perfect. The most impressive thing to me was the topping and sauce bar. The toppings were fresh, and they had something for everyone. I am a saucy girl, and having unlimited access to all condiments including a nacho cheese and a jalapeno cheese sauce is beyond my wildest dreams. My favorite sauce ended up being their "fry sauce" it's a must try! I am so glad I stopped in!
