There was an hour wait to be seated because it was Sunday morning and that's to be expected. The front desk is a little chaotic with people checking out and checking in. It was really packed and somewhat disorganized. My party of 7 was seated and our waitress took our drink orders in a reasonable amount of time. This isn't my first time at Vic's so I knew what I wanted to order already, huevos rancheros. I ordered a side of sausage too. I was pretty underwhelmed with the green chile flavor and no heat. My meal was just ok. My two sausage patties were $2.79 and they were super bland. For that amount of money I would expect at least 3 patties. I won't ever order that again. We had to remind our waitress of missing items a few times and my bill had a charge on it that wasn't mine. She corrected it quickly though. All in all it wasn't horrible but it wasn't great either. read more

Service was great went for breakfast twice heuvos rancheros on fry bread close to the best meal I have ever had!

Great place for basic breakfast at a good price. Went there after balloon fiesta in the morning so ended up waiting for about 30-40 minutes. Owner greeted us during the meal. Overall pretty standard breakfast experience. read more

Delicious breakfast options! Their red Chile was amazing and the prices were so great!

I've eaten at Vic's several years and haven't had a bad dish. But the best is catfish is the best in the city.

Always a good meal here. The later in the morning you arrive the longer the wait will be. Local dishes are great, generous portion on the breakfast burrito and a full plate on the French toast plate. The service is always good as is the coffee. Been here a number of times and have never had a bad meal, read more

It was pretty good. Very busy place. Had the chicken fried steak. It is massive! It was a bit overcooked and the cheese on it was crunchy like it had been over baked with cheese already on it. Would definitely try again. read more

So yummy. Tator tots with Queso is perfect. Get the chicken fried steak. Huge, delicious and homemade. Pinto beans also so tasty. read more

Excellent food and service. Had french toast combo. good sausage and eggs cooked as ordered.

this is literally the best breakfast place! I'm from colorado and everytime i travel to new mexico , i make sure to take my family here. For the past two trips that i was there , i've ordered the samething again because they're so good. We've had liver, chicken fried steak and blue ribbon meatloaf. Even their french fries is good. Their hidden menu has fried bread, oh my goodness my kids love it. We usually sit outside in the patio. Their food and service is top notch. Honestly the food here is so much better than the ones in CO. You wouldn't believe if I tell you we drive 7 hrs here just to visit Vic's in the morning for breakfast :) read more

The food is so good! There's so much great stuff on the menu I could eat here every meal of every day. I can't because we don't have a local sumo team I could join haha. Everyone I have dealt with has been so helpful and just really genuine. They care about their customers and it shows! I have always felt cozy while enjoying my meals. It's truly a local treasure. Enjoy! read more

I have a mixed review for this place. My family loved their chicken fried steak and eggs but they forgot one order of toast and never brought it and then the cheese in my cheese enchiladas was not melted at all and I had to send it back. The waitress was very nice. I might try it again on a different day but I wouldn't go out of my way to come here again. read more

So good. Love this place. Check them out. Plain looking but delicious food. Service seems fine.

Love this place but just got Red tagged for major heath violations so very surprised by this . Hope they get there act together.

Decided to try this place as I had seen it many times before driving by and was reading good things about their service and food recently. Well, let me put that to rest by saying they are both true. I noticed that due to this craziness we are all going through, they have gone out of their way to put tables separated and in shade for our comfort and convenience. I didn't know they closed at 2pm and I think we got there just before then which I would never do knowingly. I know these people want to go home and enjoy their Saturday just like me. Still, they greeted us with a smile and got me some iced tea immediately which was so good at that moment. I went with the chicken fried steak and french fries and it did not disappoint! The steak was crispy and extremely tasty! The gravy was just enough to keep me satisfied and not enough to soggy my meal up. It was literally one of the best chicken fried steaks I have ever had......and I've had a few. The fries were light, hot, and crisp. I also ordered a garden salad and that was also very tasty, crisp and cool with fresh veggies. If you haven't been here yet, do yourself a favor and stop for the chicken fried steak. I also want to give a huge kudos to the staff for being so friendly and attentive the entire time. I will definitely be back! read more

Vic's Daily Cafe - Chicken Fried Steak, French Fries, and a Garden salad. - American Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

Great authentic food. Lots of flavor and lots of sauce! Plan on making a stop here for some good grub.

Delicious food and the service was great too. The food is fresh daily. Had the huevos rancheros, they were delicious!

Good food and excellent service, although it did take a long time to get seated and I was just a single. Very popular place but once you get seated, they're fairly efficient. read more

First time here and the food was great! Ordered the carne adovada which had a great flavor. The portion size was huuuuge and had an amazing price. We got to sit in the "forest" section which was a table between two trees. Outside seating was spaced and there was also indoor seating at 25%. I think I found my new breakfast spot! Highly recommend read more

We were seated immediately outside at a shaded patio table specifically for three people or more. It wasn't long before our server, Summer, greeted us. We ordered two decaf coffees and a small grapefruit juice for my daughter. It was a long before she came back with a coffees and a cranberry juice because they were out of grapefruit juice. My husband ordered the huevos rancheros over easy, my daughter ordered the Santa Barbara omelette, and I ordered the Athenean omelette. My Athenean omelette came with fruit and a flour tortilla, both of which were very good! My husband's huevos rancheros were served with hashbrowns and beans and green chili sauce. I can see why this is a neighborhood favorite. read more

COVID UPDATE, OPEN FOR TAKEOUT: These guys are still taking take out orders, so call ahead. We ordered the carne adovada plate and country fried steak plate. Portions were still good, food was still as delicious and service at pick up was superb. I am so happy that they're still open. If you're sick of cooking and washing pans like me, this is the spot. read more

Vic's is a local restaurant that is friendly and serves great food. The menu is versatile for breakfast or lunch. I recommend trying the El Vaquero, it's a breakfast chicken fried steak smothered in green or red chile ( try both) with eggs, hash-browns, and your choice of bread. You won't go away hungry. read more

Stopped for breakfast and was not disappointed, one bit. Amazing, fluffy pancakes, delicious sausage and well-cooked bacon. Really enjoyed it! read more

Food is always great... No matter what you order.... Vaqueros is the best service is great read more

Real hidden gem in the northwest side of Albuquerque. As far as I am concerned, this place is an institution and by far one of my top spots in town. Any time I am in town, I try to hit it up, there's a reason why half the pics on the pics section here are of one infamous dish, "The Vaqueros". It's epic! Never had a bad meal here, service is solid and it's a great value too. read more

Food and service was outstanding. Worth the wait. Inside is pretty neat as well. Country fried steak BOMB!!!!

Full disclosure-This meal was donated to the VA hospital night nurses by the owner of this cafe. But wow was this a hearty home made meal! That's all everyone could keep saying, we were given a salad with some yummy bread and a tray of rice chicken broccoli and cheese (don't know the name of the actual item). It was amazing I just kept going back for more. I can't wait to support this local business and go back for more sometime soon:) thank you for supporting us vics cafe, your kind gesture meant so much to all of us. read more

Huge portions, good prices. Very delicious, authentic New Mexican food. Would definitely go there again.

Vic's is very good for breakfast. The breakfast burrito is really good! The service is always fast and efficient. You can tell everyone working there is treated like family, and the place always has a good aura and atmosphere. Heard the tacos are pretty good here as well! read more

Good first time experience. Food was good, service was good, busy place. Very clean. Portions are big for the price, you get what you pay for here no problems highly recommend read more

I am here like everyone else to rave about the chicken fried steak. It is delicious, crispy & properly seasoned & cooked & it's huge! I have not tried any other plate. The service was decent no complaints. Friendly staff. The wait time however is a little too long for my taste & the waiting area is not very big. Which means, if you go on a cold day or very hot day you may end up waiting outside. This of course is no reason not to go. There is a wait for a reason, just fyi be ready to wait in case you're an inpatient person like myself. read more

We came here for a mid week breakfast date. Parking lot was full, and they were jamming with customers. We sat on the patio (ended up with mosquito bites) and service although a bit slow, was good. I had a classic huevos rancheros and my date had the Vaqueros- (chicken fried steak with eggs, Chile & hash browns) The red and green chile is both flavorful and spicy. Very good food! Like we are coming back soon good! I have heard about this place for years just never made the trip. Prices are reasonable and it feels worth it. Nice when places live up to the hype! read more

This restaurant had fantastic food, but they are not enforcing mask rules at all. I saw multiple people walk into the restaurant, no masks in sight. No remarks from the servers or hostess to put a mask on at all. Really disappointed because the food was fantastic. read more

Found this place on yelp. So decided to try it. Been here twice for breakfast. Staff are really friendly and always check on you. They give you you're moneys worth. They food is good. The chicken fried steak is great. Will be back again. read more

I always enjoy going to Vic's for breakfast! Food is always delicious and great service too! I haven't tried the chicken-fried steak yet...so I have to go back and try it! read more

We went to try this, new to us, place. Good food, pretty good service, a reasonable price. Outdoor dining was a plus and the inside had a full crowd. Looks like a favorite for a lot of people, with good reason. It is certainly worth a first visit and I will definitely be going back. I have already recommended it to others who like a very good Local place. The chicken fried is made by hand, not a frozen out of a box thing. But, I will be trying new menu items too as I return. read more

Good sevice and good food. Best chicken fried steak in Albuquerque!!!! !!!!
