16 Best American Restaurants near Tijeras

“Lovely place, wonderful people, great fresh food. We are so happy to have them in our community.“

“EVERY CHANCE I HAVE DAVE'S IS MY CHOICE OF A DELICIOUS BOWL OF GREEN CHILI CHICKEN SOUP WE LIKE SITTING AT THE BAR TOO !!!“

“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!“

“So, yes, it's a little bit pricey. Now that that's out of the way... You're paying for the view and location. Our food was very good. Service was very good. We will definitely go back. I'm surprised we waited as long as we did after the rebuild. Oh, there were people there dressed relatively casual. No t-shirts, but many people in nice jeans. We've eaten on the bar/casual side a few times before and the experience there was also positive. Yes, check the prices before you go so you don't get sticker shock. But the truth is, two people could easily have dinner with no wine, appetizer or dessert for around $100.“

“Can’t stress this enough. Daniel is an amazing bartender. Making drinks, taking phone orders. Serving people at the bar!!! Go and sit at the bar and ask for Daniel. You won’t be disappointed!!!“

“We went to dinner last night in celebration of my husband’s birthday. From the moment we walked in, we were met by the most delightful hostess. The ambiance and the entrees and wine were fantastic; My husband ordered the filet mignon and I had the chicken dish which were both absolutely delicious and cooked to perfection; the sauces…wow! On the other hand, the desert, a strawberry chiffon cake was a bit underwhelming and not up to the excellence of the entrée. On the way out, we met up with one of the general managers who took the time to ask us about our meal. He couldn’t of been more gracious.The price was not over the top. We look forward to a return visit.“

“Jen (the owner) and her husband are so friendly and accommodating. They went above and beyond to accommodate my group and I appreciate their willingness to be flexible. This place has great volleyball courts, great food, and great drinks! Highly recommend!“

“This was hands down the best experience I have ever had at an Applebee’s.

My wife and I visited the Applebee’s on Lomas Boulevard in Northeast Albuquerque, and from the moment we walked in, the service, leadership, and cleanliness stood out immediately.

When we arrived, it was cold inside and my wife was clearly uncomfortable. Before we even had to ask, the General Manager, Daniel, noticed and personally came over to check on us. He asked if we would like the air conditioning adjusted so my wife would be more comfortable. That kind of awareness and genuine care for guests is rare, and it made a real impression on us.

What stood out even more was watching Daniel lead by example. He was not just managing from a distance — he was right there on the floor, working alongside his staff, supporting them, helping where needed, and making sure every detail of the restaurant was handled with pride.

The level of cleanliness was outstanding. This location was spotless in every way. I honestly did not even see crumbs on the floor. The restaurant had a true white-glove level of attention to detail, and you could tell Daniel takes real ownership of the environment, the staff, and the guest experience.

Our server, Anylalie, was also professional, attentive, and very well kept. The entire staff seemed organized and clearly operating under strong leadership.

A great General Manager sets the tone for the entire restaurant, and Daniel is clearly doing exactly that. Applebee’s should be proud to have him leading this location.

This was not just a good dinner — this was an outstanding customer experience from start to finish.“

“Tacos where good and flavorful and the homemade corn tortillas where the bomb and the highlight. The fries have too much ingredients on them which made them super soggy. Salsas could be more spicier in my opinion but overall 7/10 and we'll be back to try other items.“

“Extremely rude owners!!! was treated awful and yelled at on the phone for asking a simple question and then was hung up on! WILL TELL EVERYONE I KNOW TO NOT SUPORT THIS PLACE“

“If you want to pay a premium for your order, and then not get what you ordered, please pay a visit to The Burger Den! oh and if you ordered through a delivery service or their website, good luck finding a phone number to contact them when they fudge your order. Food 7/10 Service 0/10 reliability 0/10“

“I loved the atmosphere here! It was nice and quiet, so we could actually sit and talk comfortably. The food tasted great and was full of flavor, and the service was excellent. Even the manager came over to greet us—it was a wonderful touch!“

“I went in yesterday and tried the Raspberry Lemon Tart. I am diabetic and don't usually eat sweets. Worth it 10000% The staff is friendly, and the food is good also.“

“The store itself is just fine. This review is for the grill and more so specifically the breakfast burritos. I’ve tried them a few times and they just aren’t good.The biggest problem with them to me is obvious - they’re dry AF. Next to zero moisture and what little cheese it has doesn’t really melt and soak in, but instead is just a lump.I’m used to juicy burritos and these are the opposite. The taste is average. If you should ever buy one… make sure you get a drink with it so you don’t get burrito stuck in your throat.“

“Great customer service and the food was really good and fresh“

“First time here, Marcos the manger on shift was extra patient with us while we played the bar games. Audrey made some great drinks. The drinks were amazing and very reasonably price. Also had the World Cup going. Definitely wasn’t expecting anything special when we walked in but the staff and the prices were more than a reason to return.“
