Restaurants in Rio Rancho

“Delicious Real german food”

“Oh my gosh. I just ate at this place for the very first time 2 days ago. I drive past this place at least once a week and I've been meaning to stop in for the last several YEARS but never did (just kept forgetting). A friend mentioned to me how good this place was a few days back and I decided that's it I have to go to this place NOW. So I finally stopped by and got the Chipotle Panini. I took one bite and I about passed out it was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GOOD!!! And the banana peppers give it that little extra kick to perfection!!! I can't wait to try everything else on their menu!!!!!! YUMMY!!!!”

“Legit pho. Very welcoming and helpful. Beautiful fish tank. All the best pho places have one 😎”

“Always first rate, every time!”

“I can’t count how many of your barbacoa fries I have ordered, they are my favorite comfort food. ♥️ Tap n Tacos worst day is most restaurants best day. Thank you for this delicious food. It’s all delicious! ♥️♥️♥️ ALSO, your employees are always polite and helpful. Oh and your red chile sauce is perfect. 🤤”

“absolutely amazing food. for two of us with appetizers and two full meals very affordable at a price of $104. it was absolutely worth it. thank you so much for a beautiful night.”

“Our family has been to Weck's several times. Sometimes we were happy with our meal and sometimes we we're not so pleased. I went to the location in Rio Rancho today with my friend for breakfast. I was so pleased! I was more than just pleased because everything that we got was delicious. I got the two egg breakfast. I ordered poached eggs and they were cooked perfectly. They did have a tiny bit of water in their little bowl. I just dried them out with a paper towel. They were cooked perfectly and so were the hash browns. The biscuits are amazing and so is their gravy. My friend was so happy with her vegetable egg burrito that was Christmas. I will definitely be going back. I still have to try their waffles and sandwiches. We were so pleased at our Rio Rancho location. We had great service and we loved our waitress. Our waitresses name was Oli. She took great care of us and she had a great smile and attitude.”

“Friendliest staff, great service and amazing jerk chicken!”

“Received a really beautiful and delicious Chantilly cake for my wife’s birthday from Delectable Bakery. Wouldn’t hesitate to order from them again. It was also super nice that they delivered it to our house. Highly recommend this bakery!”

“I love my the taste of coffee”

“Food is absolutely phenomenal, every bite is magic and heavenly. The restaurant itself is a very comfortable environment and the smell of the food cooking gives the restaurant more of an authentic experience. The staff is tremendously wonderful, very attentive and friendly. I love that the staff take the time to get to know their customers and know them on a personal level. That personal touch gives the overall experience a pleasure with every visit. 1000% highly recommend to everyone ❤️”

“Hit up Davido's Pizza after self proclaimed “pizza snob” Carol recommended it🤷🏻‍♂️ In house pickup right as it came out of the oven. 2 large pizzas. I don’t belive in eating delivered orders as the chain of custody from business to customer is broken for a large amount of time👏 The pizza is huge. A large is a bough for 6 people easily. Definetly paid for quantity on this one. Toppings very proportional, the bake was good, the crust fluffy and chewy, no crisp tho. Major flop but considering the size of the slice that’s to be expected if folded in hand slightly still a bit of flop which is a personal preference. Note***wasn’t soggy at all and was baked correctly. The dough is pretty bland as it goes where it kind of taste like Costco pizza which isn’t bad. A ton of crust left after a slice, diamond pizza screen bake on bottom till light brown. Was a bit confused why I got charged an additional $1.47 2x for toppings on the 2nd half of the pizza considering ham and pineapple was on the entire pizza? Maybe im misreading tho💁🏻‍♂️ All in all it’s a good pizza, sauce just taste like pre made canned industry sauce, crust is a bit bland, toppings are the usual quality but good! Tastes about like every other pizza place running on food service products. I felt like I paid for a ton of crust but I will say if you are hosting a football party or birthday this will definetly take care of your needs. Friendly staff, quick service, average pizza with high cost for a lot of dough. I love to support local but at the end of the day two Costco pizzas with pepperoni for $22 is a far better value IMO for the same flavor profile and size if you aren’t looking for pizza that will really wow your palate with proprietary sauces, dough, and cheese blends. Inflation isn’t fair for customer or business🤷🏻‍♂️ Being fair a solid 3.8 out of 5. 🍕”

“We’re can I start the food was amazing the staff were great by the way especially Moad I think that’s how spell but he was one of the headrest working man in there till the father shows up Moad was taking order and his dad told him take the stuff down the car he told one minute till I finish taking this order and his father lost his mind and started going crazy on him but anyways I’ll be going back there whenever the father is not there but if the father is there, I’m automatically getting up and walk away. I’m sorry.”

“I love this place💜Great food, beer, wait and staff !”

“We've been to the restaurant at least three times in the last couple of months and we've loved everything we've tried. This place is an absolute treat!”

“We love Aldo's and have been coming here for years. my fiance is from NY and he's so happy to have NY Pizza here in New Mexico.”

“Excellent food and service. We are friends of the owner and her family. We recommend their food, and their friendship.”

“Awesome breakfast! Love coming to Dennys with my family!”

“Took my boy for his birthday breakfast. The morning crew treated him so well… bringing out some fun Whataburger swag. Thank you for your kindness! (And he really enjoyed the pancake platter!)”

“I eat at Whataburger a LOT, as a native Texan, it's just comfort food. I eat at pretty much every Whataburger in town...

...but THIS Whataburger is the BEST!

It's always clean, service is always excellent, and the Michael (I believe he's the manager) is always very friendly, nice and takes care of things.

As a business owner, I recognize good leadership..clearly this location has excellent leadership. The staff are all in good spirits all the time and everything is done wonderfully.

Bottom line, somebody give these people a raise!”

“Dietary restrictions: Ask for your dietary needs and they usually can accommodate

Kid-friendliness: Kids play place

Wheelchair accessibility: Easily accessed.”

“This McDonald's is always great at curbside pickup. Very friendly and efficient!”

“Great happy hour half-price drinks daily! And delicious $1.99 monthly menu items! Garlic Bacon Cheese Burgers are very tasty as are the Chili Cheese Coneys.
Breakfast sandwiches available all day!”

“Had a mediocre experience here over a decade ago and just rarely thought to go back, but we were craving pasta today, and Joe’s Pasta definitely changed (though the food is the same deliciousness as before!) Our waiter Hugo made the experience today so amazing! He was so sweet and cheerful. It’s lovely to see someone who loves their job and the place they work. Drinks were never empty, dirty plates never left on the table, and we took home two desserts at his recommendation. We will be back!!”

“great food enjoyed eating breakfast there 😋 thank you”

“Friendly staff, delicious Vietnamese cuisine.”

“Absolutely love this place! It’s small business friendly and love the atmosphere! The peachy keen cider is amazing! Definitely worth the visit!”

“I love this place so much!! The most delicious food!! I always get the red curry with chicken and thai hot ☺️ The employees are always so kind and one kind gentleman remembers me and my boyfriend's orders when we go!! Also just a nice and beautiful place to sit and eat!!”

“A beautiful location! Definitely give it a try!!”

“I do believe she loves her pup cup!”

“My mom, sister and I came for the first time the other day and Kristen was really helpful at explaining how it works. Everything was really good and delicious for a hot day! Will definitely be back!!”

“Best drinks in town hot cold fizzy not fizzy flavored water w.e you and good price. plus snacks.”

“We were traveling from Iowa and were hungry for pizza. Staying at a hotel in Bernalillo and searched for pizza and stumbled upon The Hopper and took a chance. The pizza was amazing and we would highly recommend.”

“super sarap talaga so much”

“Great bagels, super friendly group.”

“Exceptional food and drink! I highly recommend the Turquoise Burger and the Pretzel Appetizer. All their breads are sourced locally from the bakery next door. The service is exceptional, and it has become our local hangout.”

“Great food and service! Thank you!”

“Everything is fabulous there.”

“We had a chai and a latte with a breakfast burrito. The drinks were good, especially for Rio Rancho (after living there for 6 years and just visiting this past Balloon Fiesta weekend). Not overcrowded, no loud music and not cramped. The service was exceptional, from the cashier to the barista to the guy who brought us our burrito and drinks while we waited on the couch. We would love to know where or who provides those hatch green chile breakfast burritos as they were the best in the area over three other locations. Thank you!”

“Just had Dulce's Calabacitas Quiche. It was to die for!!! Don't miss this!.”

“Great food with great company”

“I love the coffee so much! Always delicious! I love everything they have to offer. I have to ship stuff out of state and the shipping is absolutely wonderful and it's fast. I will never stop purchasing their products!”

“This is a family run business who make their own delicious scones and roast in-house organic fair trade coffee. Lovely outside seating area, and plenty of parking. Highly recommend.”

“We are thrilled that our favorite sushi spot moved with us from Albuquerque to Rio Rancho! We have been customers for 14+ years and look forward to many more. The sushi is incredible, employees are always friendly and go above and beyond to accommodate our food allergies.”

“New to the area and O’Hare’s is our favorite place. Great food and very friendly, knowledgeable staff. Highly recommend.”

“Shakes and teas are great! Staff is great 😊”

“Best pho and egg rolls I have ever had. The staff is friendly and provides fast service. It is a great place for friends, coworkers and/or family members to get together and to enjoy some good food at the same time.”

“The elotes and the tacos are delicious.”

“This morning was my first time...pleased with the food - barbacoa street tacos and sausage breakfast burrito. My husband said the burrito was best ever! Logistics are another matter...I couldn't figure out the on-line ordering. So I called to ask a question - rang 19(!) times and the quality of the call was terrible - broken up and background noise. I called back and was answered at 3 rings. Quality of the call was much better and I ended up ordering by phone. Traffic is AWFUL. There were at least 12 cars in the drive thru..backed up onto eastbound Southern Blvd. I couldn't even pass the cars in line to continue down 26th (which dead-ends). I finally passed the line, went down 26th and turned around, parked and walked across to the walk-up window. Service was quick and friendly. Getting out of 26th again is a hassle - a lot, lot of cars going East on Southern so drivers going West waited forever - I finally was able to turn East on Southern and turned around to go West. PLEASE please figure out a better process! The food is good; it's a hassle to get to it!”

“Our meals were very good steaks not quite cooked to order but still tasty. My one thing is I was really shocked to see that for takeout there was an automatic 20% tip added and that there is no more curbside”

“GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE+1(8O5)-41O 5OO2 NO NONSENSE AND GREAT ASSISTANCE!!!”

“My favorite place for Pho, banh mi and anything else I’ve tried. Other places just haven’t even come close in comparison.”

“So kind and helpful! Food is 20/10!🔥”

“Muy rica comida y un excelente servicio”

“This is the first time we have ever visited a Papa Murphy, and we weren't sure what we were expecting, but everything was fresh, the cooking instructions were easy to understand, and the end result was delicious!”

“My favorite is the Huevos Rancheros. This is a big breakfast! 3 over easy eggs, each on its own corn tortilla, covered with grilled veggies and served with wonderful rice and refried beans. Not your average Huevos Rancheros. This is something a little different and well worth the exploration! Been eating here for years and it’s always great. I especially like the condiments counter with the salsa and sauces and grilled onions and the most fabulous roasted whole jalapeños :)”

“delicious drinks and super friendly staff. Also, the best pup cups in town!”

“I really enjoyed the blueberry cheesecake. And it's really cool that it gets delivered to me in person.”

“Had the rose lemonade and my kiddo had a blue raspberry slush and it was Devine hands down 10/10”

“I ordered door dash and I am SO GLAD I did. I haven't had this delicious and fresh Chinese food since I left Kansas in 2000. I ordered cashew chicken and pineapple chicken and egg drop soup. Even my picky granddaughter couldn't get enough!”

“The staff is always very nice. The food is good and it’s just a nice place to go with family.”

“Burritos have flavor and they are a good size! I got a veggie Burrito with bacon added red, and it was delicious. I would have liked some more red but you can always get a side of it. Overall great experience. The place is quite small so we did take our food to go but they also have drive thru. Definitely our new go to spot for Burritos.”

“My granddaughter and I stopped in the drive through on Unser today around 3:45. It was after a few errands and I know I was getting irritable. We were greeted through the speaker with amazing customer service. At the window after paying, my granddaughter mentioned that she really liked his positivity. He had us pull around to bring out our food and my granddaughter wanted me to tell him how we appreciate his attitude and energy. He brought our food out quickly and continued to exude friendly and cheerful service. He provided the best service and attitude I’ve received from an employee at any business that I can ever recall. We thought we’d use Facebook to show our appreciation and hope he gets recognition from his manager. The receipt showed the name Zachary. Thanks again, Zachary!!”

“Best southern style chicken joint in Albuquerque. Love the mushrooms and okra! The manager lady and young fellow working the register with red hair had very good customer service. I’ll be back for sure!”

“This is my favorite Starbucks location. The drinks are consistently good and the staff is friendly. I recently had a problem with my order and the staff went above and beyond to help.”

“Calti was so rude. I said good morning and she rolled her eyes—didn’t crack a smile. Normally this makes me wonder if she is having a bad day but this girl is ALWAYS like this. Then I gave her my order and asked for light ice; she showed me on the cup how full my drink would be—2/3 full MAYBE by where she pointed. I said that’s not right—just because I want less ice. She just looked at me and held up the cup again and pointed how much drink there would be. I left and so did my 2 friends. Starbucks usually has such positive employees!! I won’t go there—my neighborhood—if she is behind the counter. She needs to be educated on her customer service skills! She should be greeting customers with a smile—I don’t think I’ve EVER seen her smile. She was not busy, especially since 3 of us who only wanted a breakfast sandwich and a drink left!”

“I absolutely love the revamping of the store under new ownership. Inside and out the store and employees are inviting, friendly and genuine in wanting the experience to be great for customers. My son used to not really care for the location under prior ownership, but now? He's excited when I said let's go get ice cream- I can see that spark that I used to get when I was a kid eager to go get ice cream. My son now refers to the store as "the magical ice cream store!" He LOVES the displays, lighting, posters, decor and seating arrangements, so definitely kid approved! Thank you for the positive experience and your patience- you have no clue how relaxing it was to not have any attitude or feel rushed while my kiddo wanted to try some samples and decide on what he wanted sadly this is not often our experience at other places! It's amazing what magic happens when you pour your heart into something and show it some love! I hope to see a prosperous future and also think that many other restaurants in the area can take note to really bring the area back to life! 🧡🍦”

“Returning customer stopped going way before the pandemic hit due to poor service and missing items. Ordered Pick up service on a Saturday dinner rush. The food was ready and perfect, customer service excellent. Kudos to the workers.”

“Great bagels, super friendly group.”

“Ordered a bulk meat pkg and a bit disappointed. Asked and was under the impression I was getting both hamburger patties and loose hamburger. Plenty of Club steaks and a ton of hot dogs (!), but no loose meat hamburger, which is what I most wanted. Make sure you know what you are getting before carrying out bulk orders. Can't comment on quality at this time.”

“Exceptional food and drink! I highly recommend the Turquoise Burger and the Pretzel Appetizer. All their breads are sourced locally from the bakery next door. The service is exceptional, and it has become our local hangout.”

“The burger is exceptional! A generous angus patty with little grease and great flavor. The onion rings are also outstanding and best for sharing, because you get a lot if them.?”

“Underrated! People don't know... . every time I come in here there's ladies making Fresh Tortillas the posole is the bomb. I order the fajita burrito which is not on the menu chicken or steak, bomb. Anything with a tortilla bomb cuz their tortillas are so good. This location is good I don't know what people are talking about sometimes they get very busy. Check your order before you walk out/ drive off they'll fix it”

“I love Nathaniel very much very enthusiastic bout his job give him a golden star or sum he has long curly hair very pretty would like to know what he uses in his hair”

“great mcdonalds staff is great”

“Tonight was my beat experience at this location. Great service from David and staff mates, and the food was like blakes of the old days.I had excellent customer experience on January 19th around 7pm. My food was ready quickly and I accidentally know my drink off the counter. They took care of my mistake without making me feel worse than I did.
I work in the neighborhood so I’ve eaten here many times. It’s hit or miss the customer service is just ok. The people on shift tonight deserve recognition, thank you!!!”

“Took my boy for his birthday breakfast. The morning crew treated him so well… bringing out some fun Whataburger swag. Thank you for your kindness! (And he really enjoyed the pancake platter!)”

“Usually all past experiences was on point but Ordered american style hotdog. No relish, burnt or old weenie and fries. At least the blue power aid slush was on point like the staff's energy. 😊”

“I love this Popeyes! The staff is wonderful and it’s easy to get it super fresh because they are on it! Cudos to the manager who puts up with me only buying legs. Yay Popeyes, keep up the good work!”

“Great happy hour half-price drinks daily! And delicious $1.99 monthly menu items! Garlic Bacon Cheese Burgers are very tasty as are the Chili Cheese Coneys.
Breakfast sandwiches available all day!”

“it’s wendy’s. Fries and Frosty were a hit with 5 year old in the backseat. we went through the drive through, and got our entire order without error! The other wendy’s in town always forget something, usually the baked potato.”

“Our meals were very good steaks not quite cooked to order but still tasty. My one thing is I was really shocked to see that for takeout there was an automatic 20% tip added and that there is no more curbside”

“I justvwant to give a shout out to Santiago he was very polite and very helpful just want to thank him for great customer service keep striving to help your customers you will be well rewarded i hope you have a wonderful day”

“This McDonald's is always great at curbside pickup. Very friendly and efficient!”

“Great service, employees are always amazing and happy, even in the freezing cold! I am very concerned that these employees are freezing outside and they don’t even have any outdoor heaters, or issued winter jackets…pocket warmers, something. If these were my employees I would do anything I could to keep them warm.”

“Ordered the Chicken tenders box. The coleslaw was amazing, the tenders were fresh and juicy. Lemonade was also good. It was just loud in there, you do have to get your own napkins and plastic ware. It felt crowded around the fountain drink area, staff was a ok. I just had a greeting from cashier and another employee did ask if we were good. First time here, food was great, but I think the atmosphere was just too loud for me. Prices was reasonable. My son and I dined in for 21$”
