I’m from Albuquerque. They claim to be a New Mexican restaurant, which is insulting. Arguably the worst food I’ve ever eaten in my life. Actually, it wasn’t food, it was food-flavored salt. And, they charge an absolute fortune.

Food is pretty good and not bad value, but the booths are very uncomfortable would recommend seating at one of the tables with chairs.

I liked it and would recommend you give it a try. The food was good. We shared a shrimp fajita with extra black beans and guac. We started with some chips salsa and more guac. My friend had the fried ice cream for dessert and seemed to enjoy it. So the food and service were good. The place was cute with plenty of kids around. They claim farm to table, organic etc but who knows. It was kind of loud so definitely not romantic. Also sorry no pictures as I forgot. I would go here again for sure

Great for young families with children but not suitable for seniors with hearing aides and sensitive digestive systems. Take out food was just fair. However it's been there for decades so something is working.
Great Mexican restaurant with an emphasis on Southwestern fare. Best salsa anywhere. Very good guacamole served with homemade chips. Enchiladas, tacos, and other dishes are good, served with rice and black beans. Very good service. Kid friendly too.
