Restaurants in Rio Rancho

“Delicious Real german food”

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

“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!!!!”

“Always first rate, every time!”

“Went to Alquds Mediterranean Grill because of the dessert items. They not only did not disappoint but they were beyond any fair expectations.

Absolutely delicious. Wow!”

“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”

“I love my the taste of coffee”

“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.”

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

“We are in Farmington for a few months for my hubbys job. We went to Wecks Saturday morning. The food was amazing, service was awesome, and it was super clean. But all of the staff were so friendly to everyone, and they all seemed truly happy!! Definitely going back again!”

“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 ❤️”

“Ordered a chicken kebab sandwich. Not sure what kind of meat I got, but it definitely wasn't chicken.
I tried a bite and, whatever it was, it was delicious, so I ate it anyway!
I also got a side of baklava with it, which was absolutely heavenly!
I'm not in the area much, but I would absolutely check this place out again if I find my way over there.”

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

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

“Came here for some food and it was great time and great atmosphere. The food was perfect ratio of sauce, meat, and noodles. The drinks came out before we asked for refills, bathrooms were super clean ask great service and you definitely can’t beat the price.”

“Food is great! The slices are Humungous! Highly recommend!”

“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!”

“great food enjoyed eating breakfast there 😋 thank you”

“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 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.”

“Wonderful experience! (Don't let the outside of the building dissuade you). The food is excellent, the servers both attentive and positive, and the energy is great. I will definitely be eating here again!”

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

“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 do believe she loves her pup cup!”

“10/10 would recommend! Gives a fun taste you your everyday soda, energy drink, etc.”

“This is the absolute best pizza chain in New Mexico. Their pizza is delicious and their ranch dressing is the best I've ever had from a bottle.”

“Friendly staff, delicious Vietnamese cuisine.”

“Great bagels, super friendly group.”

“super sarap talaga so much”

“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.”

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

“Everything is fabulous there.”

“My new favorite spot in Rio Rancho! Such an adorable little coffee shop. Drinks were delicious and just a comphy place to relax, read, study, or hang with friends.”

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

“I just got put on this place about a week and a half ago and I’ve been here three times in that week and a half. It’s great. The food is great. The service is great. Last time I was there my server was Grayson. He’s so energetic and personable. He gave such good service and was very hospitable. So if you’re in search of a new sushi spot, I would definitely go here.”

“This is the absolute best pizza chain in New Mexico. Their pizza is delicious and their ranch dressing is the best I've ever had from a bottle.”

“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!!”

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

“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.”

“The elotes and the tacos are delicious.”

“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.”

“I love this place. Every morning I wake up in Chicago, I start my day with New Mexico Piñon Coffee. Love the flavor, pairs well with almond milk.”

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

“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!”

“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!!”

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

“Fantastic Wings! I love the garlic Parmesan wings and fries! We order from the Ogden Utah location on 12th street! They always have my order fresh, fast and delicious. Thank you Ogden Wingstop”

“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!”

“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.”

“Muy rica comida y un excelente servicio”

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

“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 :)”

“Fantastic young people working there. Very friendly and welcoming. We come often. They are a busy store and they clear a crowd rapidly, but with care.”

“My family was in town for a burial of our loved one. We stopped at Pizza Hut after. There was 20 plus of us. The waitress, Kelly, was very accommodating for all of us. She went above and beyond to meet our thirsty requests and arranged the dinner room to fit us all so we could sit together. Our pizza was delicious and fast. Strongly recommend”

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

“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.”

“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.”

“Staff is excellent I didn't know what to order there was so many options. I ordered the best burrito I've eaten. You just pick what you want and they make it. The flour tortillas tasted just like the my grandmother's.”

“Mariah was the nicest, sweetest, prettiest cashier I've ever had.. and Jose cooked our meal to perfection. The owner, Margherita, must be doing a great job with her store. The whopper is just unmatched in my opinion. Great service, great food, great store!”

“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!”

“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!”

“Wanted only sides,3 biscuits large coleslaw,seasoned corn,that was.terrable, but the price was crazy,$16.65, I've could of ordered the bucket, fir this price, anyways only two people working,not busy,on my way out how dirty the place was,my guess no help”

“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.?”

“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!”

“Everything is fabulous there.”

“Jude was my server the other day. He’s always such a pleasure to work with. Makes sure the order is correct every time and he always has a smile when I see him. Hopefully they give him a raise to keep him around. We need more people like Jude!”

“Ordered chicken tender boat and the pieces of chicken i received couldn't even be considered a chicken nugget

*After contacting this location they made it right, i really appreciate when establishments right their wrongs.”

“Easily my most favorite Del Taco in the city! It's always clean and quick, the size and location almost give the feel of a hidden gem.

It seems like everytime I go I get Coleen helping me and I wouldn't have it any other way! She is kind, efficient and always ensures my order is correct and exactly what I wanted!

I can already tell I'll be coming back often enough to call it a habit.”

“After having a terrible experience at the Long John Silver’s on Rio Rancho Boulevard, I decided to stop at the Popeyes on Southern—and I’m so glad I did!

From the moment I walked in, Sage and the entire team completely turned my day around. Everyone was welcoming, patient, respectful, and genuinely kind. They treated me with professionalism and made me feel like a valued customer. The service was fast, my order was correct, and the food was fresh and delicious.

What stood out the most was the positive attitude of the entire staff. After the way I had just been treated elsewhere, their kindness and excellent customer service meant more than they probably realized. It’s refreshing to see a team that truly cares about their customers and works together to create such a welcoming atmosphere.

Thank you, Sage, and the entire Popeyes team on Southern, for restoring my faith in great customer service. You turned a very frustrating day into a much better one, and I truly appreciate it. I’ll definitely be back and highly recommend this location to anyone looking for friendly service and a great meal!”

“Love Wendy's for their cheap prices for meals. They have gone up a couple of dollars, but it had to be done, every thing else is going up.
Love this particular Wendy's, the workers are alway busy, but nice. The food is ALWAYS good!”

“Mariah was the nicest, sweetest, prettiest cashier I've ever had.. and Jose cooked our meal to perfection. The owner, Margherita, must be doing a great job with her store. The whopper is just unmatched in my opinion. Great service, great food, great store!”

“good coffee, they let me request a song on the speaker while I waited, they gave my dog a pup cup. they are mogging all other coffee shops in the area and help me experiencemax to my fullest”

“Born and Raised In Hawai’i, Saw That They Were Putting A L&L Hawaiian BBQ 3 Hours Away. Family and I Were Excited, Waited For The News That They Were Open. It Was Worth The Drive Today From Farmington, NM. Was Warned It May Be A 40 Min Wait But We Got Food Faster Than Expected and It Was Crowded. We Didn’t Care About The Wait Because We Were Happy That We Got Our L&L Fix. Got Our Chicken Katsu, BBQ Mixed Plate and Spam Musubi. Food Was Onoliciois 🌺 Mahalo”

“These burgers are 🔥🔥!! 💯 10/10. Fresh and tasty and made to order. Great customer service. Highly recommend!”

“The menu is very undecided from good choices. The staff are friendly and on point with serving. No rudeness. Good chill spot to eat. I will definitely be back again.”

“This has become my must have, everything im in town. There has been once out of the many times that my food didn't seem as fresh.. the chicken and sauce are my favorite.”

“they are amazing and sell the best Gold bars and other deserts definitely recommend.”

“Not to sure why the reviews are so low. This is my go to place for an amazing burrito that you dont need any salsa for its THAT good. Get the Asada burrito with the green salsa and you wont be disappointed.

Everyone who works there understands English but maybe learning to order in Spanish wouldn't be the end of the world either and you get to learn something new. I will definitely be coming back! Muchas gracias!!”
