Alicea's NY Bagels & Subs Llc 1009 Golf Course Rd SE, Rio Rancho Sandwich Shop • $

“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!!!!”

“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”

“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. 🍕”

It was beyond excellent, the shwarma was perfectly seasoned, the tabouli was out standing, and the hummus was maybe the best ive ever had.comes with 3 perfect pitas tobstuff yourself with.

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!”

Stripes Burrito Co 2510 Southern Blvd SE, Rio Rancho Burrito • $

“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!”

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.

“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! 🧡🍦”

“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!

Starbucks 7800 Enchanted Hills Blvd NE, Rio Rancho Coffee Shops • $

“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!”

“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.”

Stripes Burrito Co 2510 Southern Blvd SE, Rio Rancho Burrito • $

“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!”

“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!”

“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$”
