This was a great experience! The atmosphere was nice and surprised with the live music! The only thing I would say was a problem (if can even say that..) it was pretty loud and hard to visit with others at the table. Our waitress was excellent! We had a large party, he was attentive and kept the table going with drinks etc. the food was good and huge portion. read more

Had some time to get some lunch while in ABQ. So glad I stopped here. Living in New Mexico there is alway pretty good places for Mexican cuisine. A lot of choices for sure. I have been to the one in Santa Fe, but thought I'd try this one. Not a big crowd for lunch during the week, got seated right away and in the back which was nice. Didn't take long to have the waiter come and ask me what I wanted. Food came really quick and was a big portion for the "lighter side" choice. The food tasted great and my waiter was on top of checking on me after I got my food to Ask how it was, refilling my drink getting me a to go container and bringing me my check. Service was great. The only issue I have was the womens bathroom was not available. When I got there they said it would be just a few minutes, approximately 10 min. That did t happen. The manager said I could use the men's restroom and she would guard the door so nobody came in. But that was not something I was wanting to do. The bathroom never became available while I was there. I would go back, the place had good service and good food, and clean. read more

Had an awesome experience with Tomasita's in Albuquerque. We placed a large takeout order for a party of about 30 people with a pretty wide variety of items, and I honestly expected it to take quite a while. To our surprise, everything was ready in about 15 minutes, which was incredible. The service was top notch. The staff helped bring everything out and even helped load the food into my vehicle, which made things so much easier with such a big order. The food itself was fantastic. Everything was hot, fresh, and packed with authentic New Mexico flavor. Our group especially loved the Christmas style red and green chiles that combination really made the dishes stand out. And the sopapillas with honey butter were an excellent treat and the perfect way to finish the meal. Everyone in our party was impressed. Next time I'm in the area I'll definitely come back and dine in. Highly recommend! read more

Someone recommended it to my son in the Old Town. We went for dinner. I loved the food. This was the first time I ate sopaipilla. They were so delicious! We had the stuffed sopapilla with chicken and red and green sauce. Delicious! The chicken salad came with a honey mustard dressing with vinegarette. So delicious. read more

No wait on the bar! Crowded and a popular spot! Apparently a staple in NM. I had the New Mexico steak and it was delish. Couldn't have the beans but the the green chili was great as part of the serving. Huge plate! The rice was a little bit crunchy but it was great. The chips were thicker than what I am accustomed to but the guacamole, cheese and salsa were absolutely yummy. Creative ambience made it seem a local feel and we love supporting local owned places. They do give military discount! Walking distance to our hotel which was a plus! read more

We love Tomasita's in Santa Fe and we're excited to checkout the Albuquerque location. While both spots have their unique vibes, we love them both! We joined the online waitlist while we ubered and we recommend that on busy nights. This is a popular spots so joining the waitlist is a smart way to not have a long wait. The staff were friendly and got us seated shortly after arrival. Hungry and thirsty, we ordered the house margarita and the Tres Amigos salsa, guacamole, and chips combo. The drinks were delicious and the chips, salsa, and guacamole were divine. A very strong start! We each got the smothered burrito Christmas style (red and green salsa). YUM! If you want flavorful meat, get the Carne Adovado. If you want a more mild meat, get the chicken. I got the carne adovado and loved every bite. In fact, I ate way too much, but it was worth the deliciousness! Don't forget that you get sopapilla's with homey butter and honey at the end. They are so fluffy, warm, and divine, you want to make sure you save room for them! Finally, prices are reasonable, the building itself is clean and inviting, and the staff are friendly and professional. If you have not been to Tomasita's, we highly recommend stopping by for a delicious New Mexican experience! We cannot wait to visit next time we are in town! read more

I used to love Tomasitas in Santa Fe and was glad that they opened a restaurant in Albuquerque. I always order a red cheese enchilada but the last couple times I've gone, the enchilada didn't have very much red chile but lots of cheese. I hope they correct this so I can come back. read more

The service was excellent! We had a large party and no one ran out of refreshments and our food came out quickly. The overall vibe of the place is nice too. The food was a little disappointing. The rellano was spongy and the enchiladas could have used more seasoning. The rice also seemed over done. But, their adovada was on point and their sopapillas were out of this world! read more

We flew into Albuquerque from New Jersey for an excellent meal and service! I highly recommend it

Service was excellent! On a busy Mother's Day we got seated and ordered our drinks and food from the menu. The flautas were cooked perfectly, tacos were nice and fresh, had a half order of nachos and chips and salsa. The chalupas ere a good choice and the stuffed sopallila with ground beef was great. The restaurants was extremely busy but we had excellent service from start to end. The restrooms were clean and we even got to go cups for our drinks. Our waiter was able to get me a cup of club soda from the bar which I appreciated. The sound of people laughing and talking while enjoying their food was music to my eats. read more

What a way to end our trip to ABQ. Amazing food. Great service. And some good time with 2 of our kids. My daughter recommended Tomasita's so we could treat my husband to some good wholesome New Mexican cuisine. And they delivered on all fronts. I did not get a pic of his plate or my son's plate. Let's just say they both enjoyed it all. I had the Chimoya Plate. It was delicious. The Pork Tamale was everything. I had my chilies on the side so I can savor the taste of the food. The heat from the chilies was nice and perfect. My daughter had a Stuffed Sopapilla. It was huge and she said it was really good. My husband had the Super Combination Plate. If you know you know. It came with everything. And for someone who does not know NM cuisine he was pleasantly pleased. My son had the Taco Plate. He cleaned his plate. lol. And to top it all off they brought us out a basket of Sopapillas. With honey they bring it all together. For my cocktail I had the Swirl! Frozen Margarita with Sangria. Delicious. Everything was delicious and I will be back when I return to the area. read more

Tomasita's is a legend. And the food is good! Both the red and green chile have flavor. I prefer the green but red is richly spicy. The server and kitchen were fast and polite providing many answers to these tourists' questions. The back room for groups had a roaring fire and was quieter. We were more able to hear each other. read more

It was in the afternoon that our party arrived on time to have lunch and the tables weren't enough,so the staff immediately fixed everything and told us we were welcomed to sit at the tables next to each other boy were we glad they did approve us to sit there,we all sat down quietly and quickly before they changed their minds,we soon got around to introducing ourselves and the cousins made it a smooth conversation about memories they had with the dearly departed whom we were there to celebrate going on his journey to heaven. While most of the guests ate steak and enchiladas and Mexican cuisine I chose the chicken southwest salad it was delicious! With extra everything,so yummy, and a delightful raspberry tea. I wanted to scarf it all down right away from the very start,but refrained myself instead I quickly placed it in a box,the servers were so kind and really helpful and did that for me,they refilled my tea and I then went to reach for a sopaipilla but was stopped by my nutritionist and he placed that in a box for later also,I settled for some light yummy cake for dessert and again my nutritionist said no so I just drank my tea which he replaced with lemon water and I almost cried but withheld it all in, when I realized everyone kept looking at me each time he did that,they later applauded him for helping me make the right decisions with my meal choices for lunch,but I want to thank the restaurant for being a five star restaurant and for serving the most tastiest mouthwatering cuisine ever and for being so patient and courteous and understanding all in all. read more

Me and my sister ended up here by accident but it turned out to be absolutely wonderful. We really enjoyed our food, our server and the ambiance. We got to sit really close to the fireplace on a super cold day so it was so lovely. The food was very good too so that's a plus. I had the flautas that were actually huge and very delicious and my sister had the chile rellenos which she enjoyed quite a bit. My favorite part of the whole meal was The Sopaipillas. Not only were they huge, fluffy and scrumptious - but they came with a side of Cinnamon Butter that was absolutely diabolical. I've Never Ever thought about eating my sopaipillas with anything other than honey but I am Hooked for life now. Overall me and my sister enjoyed our lunch very much so that we have definitely been back a couple of times now and everytime we have returned it has been just as wonderful as the 1st time. Definitely come check them out. read more

The service was really good and the atmosphere was lively. But we felt a little let down, I think more because it was recommended to us by people from the area. Maybe we ordered wrong? The place was busy considering it was before dinner on a weeknight. Maybe we will try again next time we are in town. read more

Why, every time I order delivery, does Tomasita's skip the toppings? Nachos, missing sour cream and guacamole. Salad, again missing guacamole, salsa, sour cream. Every time. They are not on the food containers. They are not on the side.Who assembles the delivery and to-go orders? At this point I am inclined to believe it is deliberate. They shorted me on what works out to about $12 (if purchased separately) of product. read more

Wow! You will not be disappointed in Tomasita's! We sat in the bar area, and our service from Marlo was exceptional! Even with a packed house, he made sure we were well taken care of . Our meals consisted of taco salad, green chili soup, and sopapilla burritos. If you've never had a burrito with a sopapilla instead of a tortilla, you need to try one! My new favorite! And, if you've want a sopapilla with honey, they've got honey at the table for just that! And now, I must mention the frozen margarita flight. Not your typical iced down frozen margaritas. We had the pomegranate, the gran marnier, and sangria. We all decided that the pomegranate was the favorite. They were incredible! Suffice it to say, we'll be back! read more

So I've heard of Tomasita's for years especially with their Santa Fe location. I believe the Albuquerque location opened around 2017. I visit Albuquerque often, but had never gone. Today was the day and it was good New Mexican. I got the menudo and a side of carne adovada. The chile is a little spicy and flavorful. The place was well laid out and used to be a steak joint years ago. My large party got a variety of food and everyone seemed to enjoyed their meals. The service was very good and our server was fast, friendly. If you're in Albuquerque and wanting New Mexican cuisine this should be in the conversation. read more

Great experience and excellent food and service! I had the tostada salad which was huge and very good! A great combination of all the ingredients one would expect in a good "taco salad"!

Nice comfortable atmosphere making it easy to have a pleasant conversation Service was outstanding! read more

This is true New Mexico Mexican food. So delicious and spicy! Great service and mariachis band on Wednesday.

An essential New Mexican element is having your favorite New Mexican restaurant. When it comes down to it, outside of the breakfast spots that are absolutely amazing, my go to dinner spot is Tomasitas. There are a few reasons why I choose them over other favorites. The main two are they have the best sopapillas around and their margaritas are unbelievable. I specifically love the swirl. You can only have one, but it is so good. I mean, you can have two, but I've never been able to have more than one. Some of the other elements aren't as notable, their beans could totally use some work for example. But really I like the food overall, everything from the stuffed sopas to the flautas, it's solid. read more

I have ordered Tomasita's many times through DoorDash. I love love their food. So much that I usually get the big meal - that has a great taco, refried beans (choice) and pozole (choice) and an enchilada and stuffed poblanos. Plus, if that is not enough you also get a tamale too!!! Their food is very delicious, and sometimes I will order from them 2 or 3 days in a row!!! It is just that good!!! So are the deserts and sopapillas! Love it. ENJOY read more

Tomasita's in Albuquerque? Alright, because I know the one in Santa Fe is delish! I've had the opportunity to visit the Albuquerque location a handful of times. I will admit, I wasn't as smitten with it as the Santa Fe locale, but, it's growing on me. I have yet to find that dish that I want to order every time, buuuuuuuuut, I have tried a few different plates. My top two right now are the Randy Travis plate and the Flauta Plate. The pork chops on the Randy Travis always hit, and the Flautas are practically mini fried burritos! You can't go wrong with those. Be prepared because the servings are healthy! You can share if you are feeling peckish rather than hungry. Save room for the sopapillas because they come with every plate. Have them traditionally with honey, but they do offer a butter in the basket too! It's a busy place like most New Mexican fare can be for us, so you can expect a wait during busy hours and season, but they seem to pretty fast. read more

Tomasitas is quite a gem in Albuquerque. Considering how many Mexican restaurants there are I'm truly happy that we found Tomasitas!! We loved the Carne adovada, the red chili is delicious. It's hot but you can cool the heat by devouring the huge puffy tender sopapillas dripping with all the honey you want! We loved our server, Jasmine. She is a true force multiplier. She is totally in tune to the customer. She makes us feel like we are part of the Tomasita's familiar! We will be back and tell our familia as well. Vaya con Dios. Tomasitas is are go to in Albuquerque. read more

New Mexican food at its finest. Tomasita's never disappoints. From the first day I walked in those doors all the way to today it's the super highway to New Mexican deliciousness. At this point it's basically become an Albuquerque staple for me. The staff is phenomenal! The service is amazing. They take care of you from start to finish! This time around I decided to explore the menu and try the flautas. My jaw dropped when I discovered the size of those bad boys! I took my first bite it had the perfect amount of crunch and the savory juicy chicken inside had me screaming for more. All I know is a blinked and it was gone. Of course you know I added the sour cream and the creamy guacamole! These guys make a such a great guac! Not to mention the epic sopapillas they come with! Alright I'm just gonna come out and say it, I freaking love this place! Honestly if you're a local, or even just traveling through and you've never been here, I highly recommend it! For good food and a classy vibe, this is the place! 10 outta 10! It goes without saying, you know I'll be back! read more

This location doesn't seem to give a fig about the quality of their products. Literally had brown guacamole in our take out, missing everything the went along with the meals (garnish, salsa, chile, etc.) portions were small and mostly filler. Not worth the nearly $50 we paid. read more

Great service after they took our big table of 10 without any warning- sorry about that! Our server was efficient and knowledgeable and friendly despite being very busy with us and our demanding crew! My first time having New Mexican food and boy was it delicious! I got the Tuesday plate of mixed items. The chile relleno was my favorite but ALL of it was so good. Not too spicy for my palate and the chile sauces were excellent! The cheese used for melting made the dishes savory, comforting and special! I loved everything and could not stop eating until I was completely stuffed and still had extra. The portions were amazing and the Sopapillas served with honey butter and honey were spectacular and something I will crave for a long time. I want to come back to try everything!! Thanks Tomasita's for a great work dinner experience! read more

Food and service was average. I dont get the hype as an out of state visitor. Margarita was good. The sopapillas are amazing. But the food was bland. There are better places with better New Mexican food. The Original Cocina Azul was our favorite out of the places we visited. This was disappointing. I hate to say that but it was. read more

Sad to write a bad review because the sopapillas here were delicious , fresh and hot but everything else was a big let down. Our waitress, although was very nice, thought we wanted gluten free because we said dairy free and without discussing with us ordered our "burrito " with corn tortillas. We were excited to try the house-made flour tortillas burritos are traditionally wrapped in and ordered a burrito as one of our two dishes. We were eating it regardless of it tasting really weird because they were super busy, we didn't see our waitress while being very hungry and we don't typically send back food for just not being good to avoid waste. However, at some point we realized the tortillas were corn and not flour like indicated on the menu (and most burritos are) and were basically an unbaked corn enchilada instead of the burrito we selected. When we saw the waitress we checked in with her and she responded well and said made a mistake and will refund the burrito plate. However when she brought the check it wasn't fully refunded, just a credit. Turned out the manager wasn't going to refund it even though waitress said she would and only offered a partial credit. I kindly but assertively requested a full refund and unlike the response of the waitress, the floor manager argued that we ate the "burrito" even when I explained we noticed it wasn't right but didn't know what the problem was and thought we just didn't like it. It was ofcourse after a 30 min wait for a table and it was hard to even pin down the waitress to check in about it. While the waitress and myself had a polite and calm interaction about it , I found the floor manager to be quite unprofessional, rude and condescending. He did refund fully in the end but even after doing so was very rude. Really weird to keep arguing that we ate and didn't say anything right away when they didnt serve us the burrito we ordered and until we realized it was a mistake we just thought it was a bac meal. I'd think it would be more important to a respectable restaurant to not have customers think they serve bad burritos. So I don't recommend this place even though the sopapillas and the local raw honey were good. Our other plate was better than the "burrito " but their chile sauces were kinda meh for us too. I recommend El Patio or Duran's Station instead. read more

We have been ordering delivery from Tomasita's for a few years. We love the flautas and burritos. Suddenly, the delivery services say we live too far away to get delivery. I contacted Tomasita's customer service and was given drivel about how it is up to the delivery service. Their reply was dripping with condescension and was "pat on the head" patronizing. No food is worth being treated poorly. FWIW "GRUBHUB" will deliver me anything from P.F.'s, which is two miles farether from me than Tomasitas. . Sure, it is Grubhub that will not deliver? read more

Sight seeing and watching a colorful hot air balloon float amongst the gray sky's in New Mexico ended with a good meal at Tomasita's.

The sopapillas were delish and were not complete without honey. read more
