I go here for lunch and it's always inconsistent. Today the tortillas tasted like they're fries in old oil! Won't be going back to this location. The customer service was very good though. read more

Ordered a 64, 67, plus 2 Carne Adovada burritos. Excellent service, very friendly! Clean, safe cafe. Coming back.

We decided to eat somewhere we rarely eat at and haven't be to for a long time. So here we are. Simple order bean & cheese and chorizo & egg burrito. It was delivered as ordered. Bean & cheese had decent taste. But the tortilla was excessively thick. I ended up unwrapping the burrito and eating the beans separately. The chorizo and egg was similarly wrapped, the egg was dry. Salsa was needed to add moisture. Surprising because chorizo is generally fatty so there should be some moisture. There was a good amount of chorizo in the eggs. However it lacked any real flavor. Breakfast was something in our stomach - but that's about it. read more

Also classic and good and now what you get. I get my Tex Mex here when I need my fix.

You'd have to be crazy to get Mexican food done wrong. Taco Cabana does Mexican food great! This place is painted with lovely hues and decorated with wonderful southern charm. There is no sign of dirtiness here! The service was no more than 10 minute wait time. The food was great! The flour tortillas remind me of my Abuelita's. A great place to dine if you're craving Mexican! They also serve breakfast all day! read more

The last two times we ate at your location, the food has been so salty it was inedible. What is going on?? Aren't other people complaining? Are you trying to kill your customers? We have loved eating at Taco Cabana sine we moved here 14 years ago. But we won't be back... read more

As I waited in the drive thru I saw an employee who was preparing food touch bacon and tortillas with her bare hands. Absolutely disgusting.

I have always loved TC's. However our latest visit was disappointing. On their website it says open until 10pm. However, the doors were locked and we were told they close them "about" 8:30. Then advertise that on your door! read more

Drive up window to purchase breakfast and dinner. Best prices and tasty. Usually go in the morning and want say the young lady at the service window is the very kind and professional read more

2/23/25 My daughter and I love TC, however on this visit we both ordered street tacos, our favorite, however the tortilla where toooo thick, dry and rubbery. The street tacos usually come wrapped with 2 tortilla's, I ended up removing one of the tortilla's and they where still not up to par! Not the normal, it appears the recipe has changed. Don't order anything with the corn tortilla's, too rubbery and unpleasant. read more

Huevos rancheros are yummy and a real bargain. I make a taco of the beans and bacon with salsa de fuego, in addition to eating the eggs. A full meal. read more

we will never eat there again. the carne adovada burrito had chunks of bone and almost every time we go they cannot seem to get the food order right. we are done. read more

Prior to today every time we have been to this location we are leaving the airport and have an hour drive home so we pick up something in the drive thru... today we went inside! There was a car line around the building... however, inside we were assisted right away! Everyone was very nice and helpful. There was a lady making tortillas that you can watch while you wait... the tables were clean and there is a salsa bar! The bathrooms were clean and had a baby changing table. At our table folks at fajita chicken nachos, potato, egg and cheese bowl, and carne asada street taco plate with rice. The food was so much better inside! The aesthetics of the food are somewhat lost in the drive thru and you don't get the full experience. The only thing that would have made it better to me is if the homemade tortillas were corn so I could eat one! We will be back and we will go inside! read more

Wow! Best Doordash experience in a long time! Food is amazing! Tortillas are still warm! Ordering was easy and delivery was so quick! I called the location to let the manager know how greet this was since our current environmental challenges maybe don't support or acknowledge these positive reviews.. Cudos, Coors store! You are doing great work! read more

Picked up Taco cabana and ordered posole and 1/2 lb of barbacoa. My girlfriend made a barbacoa taco and started eating. She bit in and there was something tough and chewey! She pulled out some kinda hair ball from her mouth! Seriously, this is disgusting! Wish I could give 0 stars!!! Will never be back!!! read more

OMG the cashier Ramon very kind very helpful very respectful no problem with my order suggested certain plates you always like to come here but today was just not one of the managers day I guess because after a long day of work my husband decides to bring us to dinner we order a beer which Ramon is not old enough to sell so they call the manager Veronica very rude person very very hateful no manners she was so rude with someone I cannot believe how there's people that are the sales managers and treat their employees so disrespectful so rude but as for Ramon we were so thankful that he took our order so respectful polite one of a kind read more

I normally go to Taco Cabana because the food is always great but this time the food was a nightmare! I ordered a pound of barbacoa for take out and once I got home I was shocked when I opened the box! At first I thought that maybe I had just gone through a moment of vision loss but it turns out that this is what you'll receive when you order a pound of barbacoa. It almost looks like the cooks saw a scrambling rat in the kitchen, grabbed it, bashed it, prepped it and threw it on the grill then proceeded to serve it, this is absolutely ridiculous. The worst part is this food wasn't given to me for free, I HAD TO PAY FOR IT OUT OF MY OWN POCKET, that being said I should receive what I'm paying for! Rule for thumb for taco cabana: if you wouldn't eat it, then don't serve it to people. I am completely disappointed at this laughable place that calls itself a restaurant. read more

Spent almost $60 ordering from postmates only to receive cold, nasty food - which was 20 min late and almost everything was wrong. I won't hold this against postemates, I was just very annoyed that I waited for a late order when nothing was even good or right. Ordered nachos that were supposed to have ground beef, pico, guac, sour cream & jalapeños. Nachos I received were just shredded chicken and queso. Ordered chicken fajitas that were supposed to come with salsa ranch, guac and other toppings. Only received these sad af dried, cold chicken in a sad af tortilla. The guac was brown and tasted gross and over ripe. Everything that was "right" tasted cold and gross. I'm writing this bc I'm bugged af that I spent all this money and waited over an hour for nasty af food that wasn't even right. See read more

The slowest, dirtiest fast food chain on Coors Blvd! Salsa bar was empty of most items. Trash cans overflowing and not one employee that was really working. This is ANOTHER NM business that can't focus on drive thru and indoor dining. 27 minute wait for two items? Pass. read more

Nachos soggy, meat spice in bad way, queso not good, half went to the bin :(

I like this place, I will always eat at this place. The Tacos, Chile rellenos, salsa, queso, enchiladas, breakfasts, all great, I don't know that I've ever had anything bad. The barbacoa I can be a little fatty at times, but all really good especially for take out. HOWEVER, I do have to call you out on this Taco Cabana, STOP USING all your old nasty stale chewy burned BROKEN TACO SHELLS for tortilla chips. I'd of gladly waited for fresh. Yuck! read more

Yikes. I really have nothing else to say lol. The picture shows for itself This is a chicken "fajita" with no veggies, no flavor to the chicken.. literally nothing. I'm sorry but two of these for $10?!?! This is ridiculous and so gross. I got this from the one on coors and sequoia read more

Taco Cabana - This is a chicken fajita? I'm dying hahaha. I could've done this myself guys... come on. For $9?? - Mexican Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

Drove up to their drive through and was greeted by a friendly voice. Sometimes going through any drive through makes it hard to understand the other person on the speaker or they talk way too fast and you feel rushed. Well not today! Their employee was not only friendly but also attentive and concise. My order was perfectly packaged and he even added extra salsa. I ordered a 1/2lb of their beef fajitas for my sister and I and the Chile Relleno platter for my husband. The fajitas were tender and flavorful. They come with Spanish rice and charro beans and they even pack a full dish with guac, lettuce, sour cream and tomatoes. My husband loved the Chile relleno plate. Also included with both orders are freshly made flour tortillas. Taco Cabana is consistently serving the best top quality "fast food" read more

The service was super slow, the cashier was rude. I ordered food at 5:27pm. I still had not gotten my food at 6:15pm. This is the WORST Taco Cabana in Albuquerque. Aviod at all costs!!!! read more

Probably the worst location in ABQ. I have come 3 times, once it was 9:30 and they were "closed" is what the guy in the drive through said and we had to wait in line to just get out. 2nd time went fine other than being rushed to order. 3rd time I asked for salsa at the window so that they didn't have to run inside if it wasn't already in the bag. It in fact was not, lady who was running the food out to the car in front of me and to me, seemed annoyed. I asked her for salsa. she was coming back out anyways and I asked before hand to avoid them having to go back and forth. The lady in front of me was not happy because the worker did give the guest some pretty major attitude about her making sure she brought back the right items. She brought me one salsa... I'm supposed to share a small salsa I guess is what she planned on. The lady in front of me was standing out of her vehicle because she was not happy about the way she was being treated and she was absolutely right because I heard the girl and I would have been upset especially after my order took a while on top of coming out incorrect. If you're going to taco cabana go to the one by cottonwood they seem to be the only location who treat you with respect. 2024 workers are just a different bread no one truly understands the "my customer service voice went to Harvard" anymore cause dang a night away from cooking makes you wish you would have just sucked it up and cooked. read more

I'll start by saying I eat at taco cabana far more than I should and I love the food. I usually go to the locations on Unser or San Mateo. I strongly dislike the Coors location. The inside is routinely dirty. The lat time we ate inside, almost all of the tables were empty and somehow all of them were dirty. This time I went through the drive thru and got a burrito that they didn't even try to wrap properly. I don't know if this is a different owner or if the manager of this store doesn't expect the quality of other locations but I have had enough bad experiences that I'll avoid this location. read more

This place was truly a letdown. My husband and I used to visit the TC in San Antonio, TX and it was fabulous. This is the 2nd time that we visited TC in Albuquerque, NM and it's safe to say that we won't visit again. First off, TC didn't add cheese on my husband's fajita street taco platter. The guacamole, sour cream , etc were child-sized. There weren't any grilled vegetables either. I'm vegan and had my heart set on the beyond meat bowl. It was advertised on a sign no doubt inside. I was told no we don't have it here. So why is this even advertised inside as you walk up to order?! I asked for a black bean burrito because the refried beans aren't vegetarian friendly. The employee asked another employee cooking if there were any black beans.. Black beans are a staple so they should have them. Our food came out but the portions were small and didn't have a lot of flavor. Next! BTW there are no drink refills probably due to Covid-19 and they DO NOT scan their own TC app. Also don't expect a military discount here. I'm deleting my TC app. There are other New Mexico small business restaurants here so this just confirmed that we should try them. In fact we found a burrito restaurant named Stripes Burrito Company. Stay tuned... read more

It actually boggles my mind how consistently bad the kitchen staff is at this location. They get my order wrong about 1/3 of the time whether I go in or drive through. read more

I went to get breakfast tocos, my way. It was horrible!! It took 30 minutes to get and was not what I had asked for! The girl with the dreadlocks had a bad attitude. Could tell she didn't want to be there. She whistles as we waited for our order in the line. Like she got me. Well sweetheart you did! I will never ever go back to this place again!! As I waited for my food order, I kept telling myself I should have gone to Twister's. Alway had a great experience there and always got what I wanted. They are slow but worth the wait. The flour tortilla has always been good, that's why I went. But this time it was raw. I can tell that you have given up and that make two of us. So, I will warn people of this place and please don't waste your money or time at people who don't take value in there cooking. read more

Second time I came here, first time I did the drive thru. This time we decided to go inside 'The Original Taco Cabana Mexican Patio Cafe'. Pretty looooooooooooong name for a little place. I had the Quesidila with shrimp and 2 smoothies; the strawberry and a banana one (I am going to gain a couple of pounds on this trip). The food is good, service is kinda sloppy. They have this little tortilla maker machine, behind glass so you can see how them tortilla's are made (you know just like Krispy Kreme, just smaller). It is your typical fast food place for some decent Mexican or was it Tex Mex food? read more

Consistent, pretty decent food, most staff usually friendly. Kid at drive up today was not in sync with af norm.

Just went to the new taco cabana and got a bean and cheese tostada and burrito. The test data as you can see from the picture is a hot mess with the beans not even spread all over the tostada shell. I was really looking forward to this opening on the west side only to be greatly disappointed! UPDATE: after this review, I was contacted by their corporate office, and they sent me 2-$5dollar certificates to use at my next visit. Well..... I decided to give it a second chance and just went there. When I presented the five dollar certificates, I was told they are a franchise and do not accept them (by a manager or owner?) that they (certificate) are for the Texas location only. I will not be going back to this location again! Serious issues!!! read more

Love love love this place for their warm, fresh, handmade tortillas and refried beans. Very addictive!

Called in a order. They said it's be ready in 10 minutes I showed up 15 min after that order was placed. Walked in and waited 20 minutes while people ordering at the restaurant were getting their food first. read more

Worst service ever. Food was supposed to be ready for pick up in 20 to 40 minutes. After 45 minutes, we went inside as the status hadn't updated.. Waited at register for 5 minutes, and had to ask someone to come up and see if the order was ready. 5 minutes later, oh yeah, THAT order... yeah we haven't even started on it. 20 more minutes, and finally they motion us up. Order is wrong, wait 5 more minutes. Forgot my drink, 5 more minutes. All this while I counted 14 or more people working, if you could call it that. The manager didn't lift a finger the whole time we watched. Assistant manager wandered around, did nothing. Worst 60 bucks spent. read more

Picked this restaurant based on 4 stars on Yelp. This restaurant did not deserve 4 stars. I give it 1 star only because I cannot give it ZERO! Food was unacceptable. The Green sauce was hot ( which I love) and I give it a notable achievement if only the rest of the food held up. I cannot not recommend this restaurant. read more

I enjoy the fact they are open late, but my past 3 visits the food has not been too wonderful. The service is always great, and cleanliness of restaurant is good, but unfortunately I cannot give 5 stars due to quality of food. Will give it one more shot at a later date, but won't be on the top of my list anytime soon. read more
