Given the high reviews I was pretty disappointed by this experience. I ordered the taco platter to share with carnitas, rice, and beans. The portions were very large. The pork was very dry and flavorless. The beans were very flavorless. The Mexican rice was very tasty and moist (some of the best I've had). The Jalapeño green sauce was absolutely amazing. Service was just fine and the atmosphere was a dark, low lit bar setting. I'm just visiting but I wouldn't go back.

Wow! What a gem of a place.
Got the Loaded Birria Fries, which were fantastic! Smoky, tender meat with all the fixings. Very fulling and reasonably priced. Loved the jalapeno house salsa and the chipotle crema.
Service was fantastic, very friendly and courteous.
Definitely an older building, but nicely decorated and clean.
Highly recommended and I will definitely be back.

Stay away from their food truck version because the two girls that work it are the worse. My order of tacos was not appetizing at all. The tortillas were barely warmed, the meat portion was small, and the customer service was awful. It’s like I was an inconvenience to them. Maybe I did interrupt their social media fix, but they just wanted to get me gone.

This is the worst food I've had in a longtime I had the Carnitas burrito. The meat was flavorless, and the rice was cooked to mush. The side was previously frozen fries. The service was horrible and there were only three tables occupied in the dining room.

Really good. A bit pricey. They were entirely out of desserts the 2 times we tried. First time was for lunch. The second was for dinner.
Went there for lunch today and a sign on the door said open at 11:30 not 11:00 like they claim. At 11:40 still not open and when I tried to call their message box was full. A total sham and obvious no consideration for the patrons waiting outside.
I wanted to try the old Quarters on Yale as I love BBQ. The restaurant is now called La Serenita. They serve Mexican food and the old Quarters menu (see attached). Today I decided to go for lunch. I walked in at 12:40pm & was the only person in the restaurant. What a shame. I sat down looked over the menu while my waitress brought me chips and jalapeño salsa which was amazing. The menu had some really nice Mexican choices but I came for the BBQ. I ordered the combo because I wanted to try all of it. For $30 this was a great value in the ABQ BBQ market. It came with 5 pork ribs 1 sausage cut in half & 3 large slices of amazing brisket & plenty of sauce with 2 sides. I chose French fries & coleslaw. The slaw was just like quarters the fries were not the steak fries but still very good and a bit salty but delicious. I was never fond of Quarters brisket. This brisket is thick well smoked and juicy with little fat. This is the best brisket in ABQ I have had to date. A huge improvement from Quarters & as good as any I have had anywhere.
Over-all I will be back. Don’t let the lack of people sway you for lunch. My waitress was warm and kind and I asked her about the dinner & weekend scene. She said they get busy but not like the waits from the old Quarters days. She said they take reservations for larger parties and get pretty busy during Isotopes and UNM games. They have a full bar.
She also said to come back & try their Mexican food which is true Mexican cuisine and gave me a few hot sauces to sample which were true to Mexico. I asked if she sells more Mexican or Bbq? She said bbq for sure.
Food truck at Marble 111 (specifically on 6/15/24)....says open til 11pm but order window was randomly and periodically closed so thst the staff could go.hid in the truck/back and vape and smoke. Then they would re open. Couldn't even say if the food was good bc we never got to try.
