A Must-Visit for Breakfast Burritos and Sandwich Lovers!
I’ve been to this gem of a restaurant three times now, and I can confidently say it’s become my go-to spot for an amazing breakfast burrito and incredible sandwiches.
But it's not just the burritos that shine here. The sandwiches are equally impressive – You can really tell they put care into every meal they prepare.
The staff is always welcoming, and the atmosphere has a cozy, laid-back vibe that makes you feel right at home. If you're looking for a spot that serves up consistently great food with a friendly touch, this place should be at the top of your list!

We had the chocolate cake (one piece) and a couple of the Mexican sugar cookies. It was almost $13 for just that, and absolutely not worth it. The cake itself was dense and not at all moist. It had decent flavor, but if you’re going to charge that kind of price for a simple piece of cake, it had better be good. And it wasn’t that good. You have better options at the Sawmill.

Food is great, sandwiches are awesome even if they’re overpriced. They’re even better when they get the order correct which has has only been 1 out of the 3 times that we’ve been here. Don’t expect the front counter to be apologetic or to take any accountability for errors.

The avocado toast was tasty. Great menu with variety although most of the dishes are a bit pricey. Nice selection of pastries & sweet treats. Love the seating area & the artistic wall decor. They also sell cute accessories.

The food here is really good. My first experience here was great. For the second, I ordered a breakfast sandwich with no bacon, as I'm vegetarian. He must not have heard me, as my sandwich came with bacon. It happens, I didn't think much of it. When I returned it, reception was... chilly. They took it and made me a new sandwich, but there was no apology and I felt very uncomfortable about it. So I guess be careful that any needed modifications are heard when you order. I wouldn't be inclined to return based on my second experience.
Vegetarian options: There are vegetarian options and some items can easily be made vegetarian. But be very careful that your modification requests are heard and check when you receive your food.
Kid-friendliness: There's a very limited kids menu.

Delicious!! Tons of fancy, huge and healthy salads with delicious toppings. I got the Arugula Salad. I’m dairy free/vegan, gluten free, and limiting specific items in my diet right now (nightshades are a big one) so I appreciated being able to ask for no cheese, add garbanzo beans and avocado. There are of vegetarian/vegan options. The pickled fennel was surprisingly delicious!
This was the best salad and one of my favorite meals that I had on my entire week-long trip in Albuquerque, Santa Fe and Taos. Plus there were so many options in the food court for dessert, coffee, kombucha, or other snacks nearby.
Was a bit surprised that this was a food court (we were intending to find a sit down restaurant) — but this was far better.
Vegetarian options: Incredible salads.
Dietary restrictions: Dairy free (vegan), gluten free, keto, lechtin free, vegetarian.

Tried a cupcake and it was excellent. Perfect amount of frosting and the cake portion was moist and fluffy.

The absolute saddest avocado toast there ever was. $14 is highway robbery for two slices of toast with a tiny bit of avocado that's partially spoiled. Calling this avocado toast is insulting.

The food is excellent! Connie recommended a vegetable sandwich and it was delicious. The salad it comes with is a meal in itself. It was so good I went back the next day!

What a great place to grab a bite to eat or meet up with friends. We needed a quick bite before going to the nearby museum, but could have stayed here for a long time trying all the different stalls of delicious food.
The food was overpriced to us. The flavor of the yellow rice dish was a bit on the bland side. The beer I had was good but way too expensive for a beer. The noise level was too high, we had trouble hearing ourselves talk. If you are young and don't mind losing part of your hearing by all means go there. It is set up for a younger crowd. We were told that there were vendors selling their wares, but all food and drink. Great place for mall food, but expect to pay a higher price than usual.
Tulipani was AMAZING, try it! We also tried the Kebabs and Baklavas which were delicious! Nice area, clean, lots of options.
