This was the first time I've gone to Los Cuates, the server was friendly, personable, and had great suggestions, I really enjoyed the interaction.
Food:
I had the big combo plate, which I like to get from a Mexican/ New Mexican restaurant, it gives me a variety to judge. The combo came with a taco, Chile relleno, cheese enchilada, rice, and beans. Everything on this plate was delicious even the rice and beans, which sometimes feels generic bilut these were delicious. The Chile relleno was excellent, it was crunchy on the outside, the Chile had a little bite to it, which gave it great texture and it was full of cheese, so good. The child on the cheese enchilada was a winner, I had Christmas, if you know you know, and each was tasty but not super hot. The taco, if I had one criticism it is the taco, don't get me wrong it was delicious, the shredded beef was flavourful and an excellent recommendation by our server, but the taco fell apart as soon as I picked it up. My solution, put the cheese on the bottom before putting the meat in, the cheese protects the shell a bit more, take it or leave it, but that's how I build my tacos and it keeps the shell together better. Anyway, chips and salsa, their salsa is unique and addictive, it's a little sweet but spicy and she thick, it's different but super good.

Los Cuates is a really nice, homey, restaurant. It feels comfortable and welcoming and could even be nice for a date night. They have a cocktail bar and looks like some great cocktails. It could feel a little moody for a nighttime spot, but we went for lunch. Btw, lunch was super affordable with reasonable prices.
Overall a great experience and will be returning. Thanks for a great meal.

Gone down hill! Their re fried beans used to be made from scratch- and had cheese blended in them as well. Yesterday, my enchiladas came with beans that were the rehydrated kind out of a bag! Tastless and hated the texture of the out of the bag rehydrated beans-. The enchiladas were good, as was the sopa. Chile is ok at best. They need to bring back their from scratch beans. Tacos were good.

Ariel was my server this evening, she went above and beyond to make my first time experience remberable. I travel for work, she was patience and very helpful with explaining the menu. Now I know what a sopapillo is! I will be coming back when I am in town! Thank You Ariel!!!!

We eat here a lot (1-2x/month). Both lunch and dinner. We love it! Although this location is very good, we think the west side location by Cottonwood is the best. Service is usually top notch (for NM), and food consistently good.

It's a nice restaurant. And the food is ok. The salsa isn't very good. But, with so many good Mexican and new Mexican places in town, it's not really worth it. The atmosphere is typical pseudo-Mexican fair. And the staff service was really good. They're very friendly and attentive.

Great happy hour Margarita. Dinner salad was a large potion loaded with extras! I ordered the chile relleno witch was grande! They are hand made from scratch everyday. It did not disappoint. The cheerful bar server Becky was on top of the bar and bar section. I had a gr3at experience.

I ordered house margaritas and fajitas and they were both exceptional! Even better, Becky was super friendly and answered all of our questions! I am visiting family in Albuquerque this week and my cousin and I were talking about making a second stop out later in the week because of how great our food, drinks and service was! I will definitely be stopping at Los Cuates at least once every time I’m visiting Albuquerque! Thank you Becky and Los Cuates for a great visit!!!
