This café is hands-down one of the best spots in downtown Albuquerque. From the moment you walk in, you feel welcomed — and that’s thanks in large part to Jamie, the amazing owner. She pours so much heart into this place, and it really shows. You can feel the love in the atmosphere, in the food, and in the way every customer is treated.
The food is consistently delicious and the entire menu is outstanding! The space is warm, cozy, and inviting — perfect for everything from catching up with a friend to stopping in for a quick bite. Jamie, her husband and the staff are not only friendly but genuinely kind — they make you feel like a regular, even if it’s your first visit.
This café is a local treasure. If you’re anywhere near downtown Albuquerque, don’t miss it!!

**UPDATED
The Plaza del Sol location falls short on multiple fronts.
To start, the food is outrageously overpriced, leaving customers feeling shortchanged for what they receive.
The customer service is equally disappointing; staff members seem to lack the basic skills required for good hospitality, making diners feel unwelcome.
The overall atmosphere is far from inviting, contributing to a less-than-pleasant experience.
Additionally, the restricted breakfast hours are frustrating, as many customers would benefit from more accessible options.
Overall, this establishment has significant room for improvement across the board.

I have been disappointed a few times getting the same thing. I get the western hashbrowns. It seems like the cook doesn't care about how he cooks. He gave me old mushy hashbrowns. They were not fresh.. I'm very specific on how I like them. After a while I realized how they make them. So changed it so I can have them the way I like them. I get every place makes them in their way. I wanted them crispy. So I specified crispy with Chile and cheese on the side. They weren't crispy seemed to much with grease to make them mushy. I'm disappointed because this has happened multiple times. I hate that i am complaining ? I have been in the restraunt business for over 20 years. The only time they came out perfect is when the owner cooked them many many months ago. I hope next time he makes right.. ?

Food is just ok for a cafe in office building. The staff is ridiculously rude when asked questions about the menu. As in you should it already know what you want attitude. Those dining all seem to work in the same office building. Staff are more interested in talking to themselves and other office staff than a new paying customer in front of them.

Honestly i always give places the benefit of the doubt and prefer to leave good reviews to support local businesses but the food here is store bought and not home made like they claim and the husband and wife that work there are plain out rude if you don’t catch them at the right time… Pretty unnecessary (Its giving Miserable) I was just simply Excited to fond a decent priced cafe by my job and was disappointed by the service to say the least.

Extremely rude service by a blonde girl when I asked if they could fix my order that was incorrect.This was uncomfortable as she started yelling and trying to prove me wrong rather than asking how she can fix it. I was excited to find a Café by my office but I will never go back again.

It's always a pleasure going here, the selection and prices are very reasonable. I suggest the breakfast burrito if you're here before 11, and they have daily specials, so definitely check them out. You won't be disappointed. ???

Did not like the food, missing salt or something. I don't recommend anything to anyone at this place. I tried a salad and they looked and tasted like they were made 3 days prior
