50 Best Salad Restaurants in Albuquerque

“This is my absolute FAVORITE place. Their California Harvest Market salad is my favorite salad in the entire city. I’m vegetarian so I eat a lot of salads and this one is my go-to every single time. All the ingredients are fresh and the dressing is light enough that it doesn’t over power the salad but heavy enough that you don’t feel it’s missing. I also love the Penne Pasta. It’s again very fresh and has amazing flavor. The service is amazing every time I go (which has been pretty much weekly) and the food comes out quick. Highly, highly recommend this place!“

“Frustrated with the Masthead location. I work in the building and hours say open 7am to 3pm, but they don't open until between 10:30 and 11:00--would love to be able to get breakfast. Also, full menu is never available, just a handful of lunch items. Been told numerous times "full menu is coming", but it's been months. C'mon guys...“

“Amazing First Experience!

This was my first time visiting, and the atmosphere was incredibly welcoming. As soon as I walked in, I was greeted warmly and asked what I’d like to order. They had an amazing special— a burrito and coffee for about $9— which was a great deal. I also got a pastry, and it was absolutely delicious!

The burrito was a good size (I used a K-cup for reference) and packed with flavor. I ordered the red chile and carne adobada breakfast burrito, and it did not disappoint. The red chile was perfection—just the right balance of spice and richness. The food tasted incredibly authentic and homemade, just like something you’d get from a family kitchen.

I will definitely be returning!“

“I am originally from NYC. Giovanni's is the closest Albuquerque has to New York style pizza! The dining room decor takes me back to time square after clubbing. Stopping at the local pizza shop to grab a slice!❤❤❤❤“

“Fantastic staff!! They are friendly efficient and hardworking. The food is excellent & and good value“

“Nice people running this joint! Give your money to good people! 😇“

“Come in - look at menu on wall - order & sit down with your #. I really dig the diner atmosphere of this location. Tunes were good, walls had art for sale (which I thought was kinda random).
Food: Really good variety of sandwiches to choose from.
Very tasteful sammich, meal included a side & “Gourmet” is in the name so you’ll pay a bit more. I got the LOBO BEEF & pasta salad. Beef on an Alpinette bun was good quality & plentifully delicious but the sandwich was only 8” cut in half (see pic). Pasta salad was creamy and legit, imo. Decent portion unless you rolled in with serious hunger…. Wife n I got sandwich meals (w/side), no drinks •• $32.“

“I love no-frills, hole-in-the-wall joints that dish out great food with yummy flavors. Metro hits the mark. They took the concept of a traditional sandwich shop and infused it with a Persian and New Mexican twist. It’s a family-owned business worth supporting. Don’t forget to stop by!“

“Good fun and really wonderful food“

“This place has great food for great prices. A must try!“

“Good pizza & friendly atmosphere“

“Went to richie Bs for the first time with my dad to see who could finish the monsterslice first (spoiler alert neither of us!) the cashier Clarissa was so sweet and helpful and at the ready to help and serve the customers she welcomed us in with a warm smile and personality i hope richie bs keeps her on!“

“We are here at Vinaigrette in Albuquerque, NM. Fantastic place to eat!!! Our first time. We are from Sacramento, CA. We had the duck tacos, gumbo soup and the duck arugula with creamy goat cheese…super tasty!!! Love the decor, it was bright, relaxing and cheery at the same time. Our waiter, Christopher, was super!!! He was cheerful, polite, very interesting person to talk to, had some wonderful info about Old Town, and overall good guy!!! Thank you Christopher for making our dining experience lovely!!! Highly recommend this restaurant!!! Beth & Emre“

“Food was refreshingly good. Have had some inconsistency in the past. My whole family was there to celebrate a birthday and we're able to be seated in a semi private section. Not my first choice personally but it will always be a spot that my family goes for celebrations and for that I will always appreciate this location of the Olive Garden.“

“Oh my dearest Dion's how I missed thee. Lol. Moving out of state where there is no Dions or anything that comes even close to it is hard. It was a great visit to this location, the food was awesome, prices still are great, the staff was friendly. See you on the next visit...“

“–Le Troquet, in the heart of Downtown Albuquerque is beautiful & quaint. This cozy little French Bistro has left the best impressions! Hospitable hosts, beautiful presentation, wide wine list, wonderful desserts, and delicious appetizers & entrees. In particular, I highly recommend trying the “Sole Milanaise” This entree is a Sole Filet Breaded With Panko & Parmesan, Light Lemon Cream Sauce & Capers. The capers and the lemon cream sauce give a both a tart and savory flavor!! Chef Jean Pierre is known for featuring rich sauces that enhance the delicate flavors of his ingredients! 😋 I definitely recommend trying if you are looking for something new!“

“Been going to Village Inn for decades! Since high school ,and I'm in my 60's we had a very understanding waiter! And he was well compensated for what he probably thought was going to be a cheap customer's
He got blessed for the thanksgiving!
Good place to eat !“

“great coffee and waffles.“

“Loved dining on the patio with our dogs 🐶 🐕 the pizza was delicious 🍕 love their ranch dressing“

“I recently ate at this amazing Thai restaurant. Food was amazing and the owner Charmaine is so gracious and spent time visiting our table! Highly recommend trying this restaurant on San Mateo! You sound be disappointed with the ample servings!“

“great pizza especially when asked well done love that it's a new mexico chain pizza place 🍕 nothing better then our green chili 😋“

“Everything at this location was great.My problem with Firehouse Subs is their rewards program. After amassing a large amount of credit the app stopped working and multiple attempts to remedy the problem have failed.I happened to catch the District Manager at this location today. He agreed to check into the problem and text me back. Here is his reply, "Hi Robert. Here is what my corporate contact sent me:'.... unfortunately we don’t have a live person he can talk to. The app utilizes a chat bot as soon as you click the contact us option."'Firehouse Subs' rewards program is controlled by a third party entity. I think that if the folks controlling the rewards program can not be reached and I lose all my acquired credits I will exercise my right to take my business elsewhere.My Jersey Mike's app still works just fine.

“try the meatball pizza it's good“

“Like all the other Chick-Fil-A restaurants, they have the best customer service of any fast food place.. they always have family events and my kids just Love coming over.
Update: still love the place, but prices are getting crazy, we don't visit as much because at over $7 a kids meal, it's just not possible“

“Finally tried Mario’s after reading some great comments on the Neighborhood app. So glad I did! Pizza was the best I’ve had in Albuquerque. Freaking delicious!“

“awesome food and service!!!“

“Excellent pizza since 1987 if I’m correct.“

“We celebrated our wedding anniversary tonight at Amore and they went out of their way to make it special for us. Recommend them 100%. Great food and people!“

“It was date night and we had a wonderful time! I was able to be a Mai Tai and truly enjoyed every last sip. The guac and chips was excellent as were our red chile ribs and loaded potato dinners. What a lovely, smooth evening! We even had two sightings are a cute, grey cat. We highly recommend El Pinto!“

“We had a mistake on our order last night, and today the awesome manager re did our order, no charge, and gave us a box of cookies. She was very helpful over the phone and at the drive thru and such a great personality. We appreciate her tons.“

“My husband and I tried this place two years ago and the pizza & salad was so superb so we remembered this place and got the same thing and it tasted the same.“

“Go Monday for the mushroom soup. The manager makes you feel like family. The food is great. The Rio Grande and the chicken Salad are two of my favorites. The Waldorf salad is always fresh. It's not fancy but the portions are generous and the price is right“

“Excellent pizza since 1987 if I’m correct.“

“Always on point. Good food and we never had a bad meal.“

“If you’re looking for back to back boats of sushi this is the place! There’s no way you’re not leaving completely stuffed. For some reason, there’s always a video of the ocean being played. That’s pretty cool. Also, they have a bunch of Christmas decorations, which I don’t mind year round! sure, there’s some better options out there for fine dining, sushi , but this is a cheap good quality meal. Also, there’s always plenty of parking and wheelchair accessibility!“

“Sat right away for a Sat at 6pm I was happy. Waitress said hi pretty quickly but took a bit to come back which was fine since we were ready to order. We ordered dipping sauce. The breadsticks came around with the drinks but no sauce. Salad came out a little before the sauce and no sooner did we take our first bite of salad did our entrees show up. The waitress was apologetic regarding the timing and whatnot with the kitchen. All in all not a bad experience. She was very nice, the chicken Alfredo was the best I’ve had at this location.“

“All spots in the metro are cookie cutter great. They hire young people that are well trained and observed. My fav is Veggie pizza and Cesar salad. The sandwiches are well priced for what you get. The pastrami sandwich is pretty awesome. Lately I'm splurging with the Italian sandwich.“

“Great choice when ur in the mood for a Sub!!! Staff is friendly. Atmosphere is great. Crystal, the GM I think, came over and said hi and made sure we were being taken care of, which we were! Def going back!! Crystal also talked to me about the catering side of things and those options once she found out I was the GM of a local business. Will definitely have to check out the catering as we do lunch for the company every Saturday 🙌🙌👊👊. Highly recommend 😎😎“

“Pizza and salad were great for us older folks , the middle agers and the pile of teens we had with us.
Got a new hint from a friend that if you are picking up salad to take home ask for all the tomatoes, cheese and other add in to be on the side. That way your salad is not soggy when you get it home in 1 1/2 hours . I live down west of Estancia.“

“Went through the drive-thru, and we
did have to wait for the food, but that wasn't a problem. The food was hot and fresh when we were handed the bag. We were offered salsa. Loved the salsa verde. Enough spice that had me coming back for more.“

“was a delicious sandwich 😋🤤 and atmosphere was awesome 👍 not too crowded.“

“Slapfish supports Lovelace ER with incredible dinner delivery for nightshift!!!! We couldn’t do it without the incredible support of our community ❤️ #ERstrong“

“My favorite item is the Italian Sub. Half the time I get the chips half the time I get the fruit cup. I usually get a large Arnold Palmer with sweet tea. Sometimes I get a pizza and salad but most of the time it is this sub with the Greek dressing. The staff are very friendly, fast, and work well with each other it seems. The restroom was clean when I went into it. And there was a cashier that went out and wipe down the tables that were empty while I was eating. That is always nice to see being done. Period guest come and go about every half hour or so so having the tables wipe down often, it’s nice. I have been to other places but love Dion’s. The amount of food and the price is great here compared to other places I have tried.“

“OMG this is my new FAV restaurant in Albq!!! Everything we ordered was completely wonderful!!! I'm upset that we didn't eat here sooner!! Fabulous food, huge cheesecake, great customer service. We'll be back for sure!“

“We wish you were everywhere.“

“Mitch and Jazzy are very kind and exceptional at customer service and excel in friendliness. I will be coming back, for the calzone as well!

Very gooey and cheesy and again the service is impeccable if I didn't already mention.

The pizza crust is top notch, and two different specialty doughs for each unique product is also brilliant and tasty!

The ranch is the best I've had and the pizza is simple yet extremely delicious and also affordable!“

“don't order over the phone. they will never answer. owner probably has no idea how how terrible their employees are. also have been turned away an hour before they close. employees are more worried about getting off of work early.“

“Great service, fun employees and light but very tasty pizza!“

“We just had R&E deliver our company lunch and used the “It’s a Scoop” menu. Everything was delicious and so unique and all the employees loved it which makes me look good since I’m in charge of the monthly luncheons! 😉 Travis was a delight to work with as well! Thank you and I look forward to patronizing your business in the future!!“
