6 Best Southern Restaurants in Albuquerque

“Great local BBQ. The gentleman who took the order and made the food was awesome. He was out of shrimp n grits but still was able to sell me some grits. Brisket and sausage was tasty. Both BBQ sauces were good. The potato salad was really different in a great way. This will become a frequent visit.“

“I met a friend here on a Thursday evening around 5 PM, and it wasn’t too crowded. We were seated right away and had a great experience with our waiter, who was very patient and accommodating, especially since we were catching up and took a while to order.

I ordered the Caesar salad with salmon, and my friend had the grilled fish dinner. Both dishes were flavorful and enjoyable. However, the chocolate cake was a bit of a letdown—it tasted more like a boxed cake than something made from scratch.

Overall, it was a pleasant dining experience with good service. The restaurant did stsrt to fill up within a few hours as it seemed to be a very popular place for families and those celebrating birthdays. While I wouldn’t normally choose this chain on my own due to the limited healthy options, it was a nice place to meet up with a friend and enjoy a meal.“

“The menu was diverse, the gumbo was excellent, enchiladas were fantastic and the cherry/peach cobbler was as good as my grandmother's. My waitress (Steph) was attentive and informative about the menu and beer selections. Great dinner, great service and I will definitely be going back soon.“
