“I can't say enough about the service! Jerome the manager was hands on throughout our visit. The food was hot, delicious and fresh. The margaritas were refreshing. So accommodating! Highly recommend!“

“Loved this place and went regularly when they were in Rio Rancho. Will definitely miss going now that they are gone. Going to be hard to find another place close by that serves such good birria tacos.“

“Back to the 60's experience, wonderful.“

“A holiday shout-out to Los Chileros! I went to visit my good friend in Santa Fe this past summer. While I was there, I purchased some of their spice packets in a gift shop downtown. Specifically, I grabbed the Pueblo chicken rub and Abiquie steak marinade. WHOA. Delicious. When I got home from our trip, I was sad I did not have more. So... I ordered some online, how convenient! I decided while shopping that I'd grab my family members some packets for Christmas. Not only did they deliver quickly, but they included a bunch of free packets of other spice blends, on the house! I'm a customer for life now.“

“Had me & chips & salsa Greeted as I entered by a friendly welcoming staff, quickly seated and brought water, fresh brewed iced tea and as I gazed the menu I found things I had never tried before, the staff answering any questions I had and very willing to accommodate my hunger, ordering Huevos Rancheros, with side sopapilla, it was absolutely delicious, I had asked what a stuffed sopapilla was they explained, but I did not order one as it contained mushroom, staff made me a fresh one without and presented it beautifully for me to enjoy, what a great breakfast and experience and being able to witness staff that take pride in their chosen line of work!!! Thanks guys you ROCKED it!!“

“Auténtica comida mexicana, como si estuvieras en México. Y El sabor excelente .“

“Came here for the Mexican turn over. Had the Carne Adovada and cheese with Red, it was excellent. We also had a combination plate with red and green, and it was also great! Chips and salsa were okay. Atmosphere was charming cute older building. We got lucky with a parking spot! They were steadily busy, not sure who our server was as it was a group effort, they were busy and forgot our refill but no biggie. Prices were good.“

“I drive 20 minutes for the QuesaBirria and the Rio Grande Quesadilla.“

“Nice people running this joint! Give your money to good people! 😇“

“Amazing food, dessert and great people. Service is splendid!“

“My first time eating at Santiagos on Eubank. At first I was scared to go inside. The outside has bars (criminals can't get it) on the windows and a lot of writing and pictures on the windows which looked tacky. The front of the building could use a pick me up makeover and such. The owner made a customer move from a four seat table to a two seat table and said it was because of the rush hour. I did enjoy the food though! I ordered a breakfast burrito and was dreaming I was going to get fried potatoes, but it was a very light serving of hash browns inside. I will definitely be back to try their other food.“

“Been a customer here for well over 20 years. Consistent and really authentic. The stuffed beef sopa was my grandmother's favorite and mine. The servers and staff have been here for a long time and I always appreciate the hospitality. Got my food within 5 minutes and the every seat was taken. Just excellent service all around keep it up. 😁“

“The food is excellent and very affordable, and the vibes are absolutely superb!! Wonderful atmosphere, very friendly and pleasant people; we’ll definitely be back!“

“Dedlicious food with large portions and great service!“

“Absolutely the best! Nachos are delicious!“

“This was an unexpected surprise traveling through New Mexico. The price was low for the high quality. Get the lemonade.“

“Always first rate, every time!“

“New Mexico decor, style, and delicious food. Onion rings have strong beer flavored batter, which I didn't care for. But they were good. Wonderful cheese quesadilla with artichoke hearts and we added beef was savory and wonderful. Nice attached gift shop next door. Some local art work, jewelry, and touristy items. Delightful place and experience.“

“This restaurant is a gem! Family run, and the most delicious food! We've been going there for over twenty years and recently had them cater our daughter's wedding. They went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of on the special night. We can't recommend them enough!“

“If you get there early enough, you get a nice table. Their food is first rate New Mexican style food. Not Mexican, NEW Mexican. there is a huge difference. Even after they left the bowling alley, they have managed great food at a great price. Staff is always friendly, fast and efficient. The Chile con queso is fantastic. The salsa never lets you down. While the portions are more than I can eat anymore they have lighter dishes that still deliver. If you get there after 6, you will have a wait ~ but it's worth it!!!“

“The service and the food was great.“

“Food was amazing and people working were very nice. Highly recommend the breakfast burritos.“

“Best NM food ever anywhere“

“Tap and Taco is truly something special. The food is amazing, but what really sets this place apart is the kindness of the owners. They go out of their way to make everyone feel welcome and appreciated, treating customers more like family than guests. Their generosity and genuine care shine through in everything they do, and it creates an atmosphere you don’t find very often. Pair that with some of the best food in New Mexico, and you have a place worth supporting again and again. Thank you Joel and Laura Marquez you guys are the best ever:) we love you guys“

“Just wanted to give a big thank you to Monroe’s on 4th Street. We went in a little nervous about food allergies, but the staff completely put us at ease. They were so kind and careful. The manager even went out of his way to call the head chef at another location just to double-check everything for us. They gave us a list of safe options and took every precaution to avoid cross-contamination. It meant so much to see my daughter enjoy her lunch without worry. Truly grateful for how thoughtful and accommodating everyone was. Highly recommend if you’re navigating food allergies. They really care.“

“Don’t sleep on this place Albuquerque. It’s good. I had the asada burrito last time and it’s big and really good. This time I had the fajitas, chicken and shrimp. Super good. Generous servings. And if they are cleaning the ceiling tiles you know it’s gotta be clean. That’s what I look for. A restaurant that cares about cleanliness.“

“Excellent food and service! The fruit empanadas were amazing. Best I’ve had!!!! Thank you“

“Well worth your dollars. These burgers are big, delicious and juicy“

“Our server, Benjamin was new to his position but went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. The bartenders were so great, taking care of an elderly gentleman who left his card at the bar. The bartender also made sure the lighting was corrected when someone made an error as it became dark outside. We will definitely come back to this location!“

“First time here and definitely will be back. Food was fresh and delicious. Chips for the salsa and chips were damn good. The ceviche was great and fresh. Place isn't the biggest so expect a wait if you go during peak hours. Definitely a gem that I'll be back to try some other dishesz“

“The Ceviche nachos are my absolute favorite!! Would recommend to everyone! Great family environment as well as wonderful staff.“

“My barria tacos were bomb! I love it! We enjoyed the carne asada fries as well! Definitely will be back ❤️❤️“

“Best Mexican food in Point! Generous portions at a fair price. Everything is fresh and cooked to order. The tacos were loaded and delicious. Also, the avocado sauce hits just right. Staff are super friendly.“

“Best birria tacos Food is fresh and delicious great customer service“

“I decided to try a new local restaurant for breakfast today and had heard really good things about Mick's Chile Fix, and since I was looking for a good chile fix I decided to try it. This place is awesome. I ordered takeout but the diner was super quaint and comfortable, it looked like a fantastic place to have brunch and it smelled amazing! The little gift store they had on the side was super cute too. I ordered a regular sausage breakfast burrito smothered in red and the portions they gave me were absolutely massive. Definitely a 2-day breakfast. The red chile is really rich and flavorful, I'd say a medium heat with enough kick to make my nose run, and the meal was delicious. 12/10 would recommend to anyone looking to support a local Mom&Pop-style restaurant while getting Grade-A+ New Mexican food at the same time. Will have to try the rest of their menu.“

“Very tasty food. Wonderful smoky chipotle. Appreciate the metal art outside the restaurant.“

“If you’re looking for a truly authentic Mexican taco spot that makes you feel like you’re in Mexico, this is the place! The tacos are truly authentic Mexican tacos with great flavor, and the prices are very good.

Just keep in mind that it’s cash only. I highly recommend trying their buche and most definitely their barbacoa tacos. They’re both really good and definitely worth trying. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Service and food were great!“

“Fire don’t leave without having a #stuffed #sopapilla“
