“This is the most amazing place to get New Mexican food! Great family establishment and friendly staff. Totally worth going out of your way (if you have to) for breakfast or lunch while visiting Albuquerque or Santa Fe“

“Really nice tortilleria.
The food is fresh, had to wait 5 minutes for it to cool down.
It was very delicious, definitely some of the best tacos and flautas I’ve ever had.

The market inside is cool, you can pick up some goodies like chips and sweets too!

Huge drink assortment, with real cane sugar.“

“Thanks guys for keeping it right. This sounds like a real national dish. Thank you very much! Behind the forest to the east, there is a wonderful Mexican cuisine on wheels. I recommend it because it will really soften a hard working day. Thanks to the owner for the quality of the food.!!! If you continue like this, everything will be great for you!!!!“

“Great food truck experience. The chicken burrito was fantastic. Grilled chicken then chopped. No pulled chicken.

The burrito and hot sauce was great.

They will also build to order. About anything you want.“

“Wow. I can’t stop thinking about your quesadilla and birria tacos !! The best in New Mexico !“

“My regular stop when I come on off Hwy 550 south from Shiprock 👋 Excellent fresh authentic New Mexican food that will make your nose run. Five Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“This is our first time in New Mexico and this restaurant did not disappoint. The hostess was friendly and waiter, Jason, was friendly, professional and provided great suggestions. The Prickly Pear margarita and Spinach Enchiladas were very good and fresh. Can't wait to visit again.“

“I’ve eaten at almost all the Sanchez locations and I’ve been a loyal customer for the past 6 years and believe me when I say that this location is the best. The ingredients are always fresh and it’s prepared quick and you can’t get better food from a truck in bernalillo. I’ve been getting the asada quesadilla at least twice a week for the past two months. 10/10 highly recommend!“

“Delish food large portions“

“The Range Cafe is beyond cute...it is adorable in a kitschy way. There is art everywhere along with some amazing bronze sculptures...really impressive. Anyway, the food is the main event. We liked our experience so much that we came back a couple of days later. The first time around: I ordered the Huevos Rancheros with sunny-side-up eggs...which were perfectly cooked. Drew had the cheese enchiladas...which he enjoyed. We shared an order of their Blue Corn Blueberry Pancakes...OMG!!! These pancakes were amazing...filled and topped with fresh blueberries and also topped with pinons...to die for. The service is excellent as is the food. As I said prior...we liked The Range Cafe so much that we came back a couple of days later. For that experience I had the Veggie Omelette...which I wolfed down and finished every-single-delish-bite. Drew had the Huevos Rancheros which he said was excellent. And, yes of course we shared an order of their delish Blue Corn Blueberry Pancakes...yes, to die for. Your tastebuds will burst with joy. The food...the service...the atmosphere is awesome.“

“Located in the middle of a small shopping center just off Highway 550, the Bernalillo Twisters Cafe may not impress with its ordinary fast-food joint aesthetics, but what it lacks in ambiance, it more than makes up for in its delightful New Mexican cuisine.

One of several Twisters locations dotting the Albuquerque, Rio Rancho, and Bernalillo area, this cafe is a short 10-minute walk from the Rail Runner station. Upon entering, you're greeted by a friendly and attentive cashier/server who often engages in banter with the local townspeople, calling them by name. This camaraderie is a testament to the establishment's popularity among the locals.

My recommendation? Try the carne adovada burrito smothered in red chile sauce. The generous portion, almost a foot in length, is a flavorful masterpiece that will leave you in awe. Each bite is a burst of authentic Northern New Mexico flavors, making you realize that this is how real New Mexican food should taste. While the chile is classified as mild, it packs a punch for those unaccustomed to the spicy heat of New Mexico cuisine.

Although all Twisters cafes uphold the same quality of food, the Bernalillo location holds a special place in many hearts due to its cozy, community ambiance. The counter person's genuine concern for my dining experience, asking if everything was alright, was met with a wide grin and an honest assurance that the food was truly fantastic.“

“Good food but fair warning, DO NOT ORDER ONLINE!!! I arrived and my order was non-existent so I had to wait for them to “find” the order and wait another 20 minutes. They said the online ordering system is not enabled but they will take your money trust me! Lol!! Enjoy!“

“Come to eat here quite often, usually pretty good. Last night ordered green chile stew which lacked green chile. Burrito Grande which was cold and asked for it to be warmed in microwave. The staff behind the counter and in kitchen looked at me as if I were speaking an unknown dialect!!! All I asked was for it to be warmed!! They tossed it in the trash, made me another one, which was also cold! I apologized for requesting it to be warmed, but their attitude was unreal.“

“Del taco in Huntsville is by far the best Del taco we have been to in a very long time! The service was wonderful and the food was amazing. Alice was so kind and helpful! Highly recommend.“
