Reviews
We were craving something hearty, and when we saw they had birria tacos and carne asada fries, we were sold. I’m all about meat and fries, and my wife likes things a little fresher, lettuce, tomatoes, sour cream, so we compromised and ordered the carne asada fries… but asked them to add lettuce and tomato on top.
Not only did they say yes, but they put it together beautifully. The carne asada was seasoned and grilled perfectly, the fries were hot and crispy, the guac and sour cream were fresh, and the extra lettuce and tomato made it feel like we both got what we wanted. The portion size? Absolutely massive. We could’ve split it and still had leftovers.
It’s a cozy little spot with friendly service and great vibes. If you’re anywhere near downtown Albuquerque and want real Mexican flavor, skip the touristy places and give this place a shot. You won’t regret it.
10/10 would come back. And next time? I’m trying those birria tacos.
We showed up around 3:30 PM, so it was super quiet (which made us nervous at first), but it made sense for the time of day. The service was quick, the food came out hot, and everything tasted fresh. We ordered the carne asada fries and added lettuce and tomato for a little extra crunch and freshness. Honestly, it hit the spot. The meat was flavorful—my only tiny complaint is a few bites had that chewy gristle, but not enough to ruin anything.
This place was a hidden gem. We’re already planning to stop again on our way back through. If you’re looking for real Mexican food—not Tex-Mex covered in cheese soup—this is it.
I ordered their Super Fries through Seamless this evening because I was in the mood for some and made my way over so it’d still be hot by time I started eating. Well… Seamless messaged me 1 minute before my scheduled pickup time (7pm) that my order was ready, I walked in a minute later, and told the not-very-friendly lady behind the counter I was there for my pickup order while putting on my KN95 mask and noticing I was the only customer. After responding, she walked a few feet into the BoH and faced where the sizzling sounds were coming from. I assume to speak quietly to the person who made my food since I never heard a word back there.
Other than her, I only saw 2-3 very small kids a 1-3 feet past the doorway staring at me curiously and her grabbing 1 or 2 of them by the arm to bring them back where I couldn’t see them.
Here’s where the problem became obvious. After waiting 5 or 6 minutes, I pulled out my phone and started taking a picture of a flyer they have to the left of the doorway. I guess she suspected something because once she noticed this she actually stopped keeping her back to me and walked back out. I don’t recall who spoke first, but she told me they ‘just’ started making my food minutes after I walked in. Surprised, I explained and ended up showing her the txt Seamless sent me about it being ready before I walked in. She, somewhat nervously while stepping back, proceeded to claim for the 2nd time that she hadn’t pushed the button yet on her end. Implying that Seamless was mistaken. I kept cool and pretended like Seamless made an error before being told it’ll take 5 more minutes and telling her I’ll be outside. 1 or 2 minutes later, she walks out with my food in a tied plastic bag.
Context & Opinion:
I’m visibly Afro-American and very dark-skinned compared to her and the kids. There’s very little reason for me not to assume racism (or at least anti-mask mentalities) was at hand considering the occasional person in ABQ (that same day even) who’ll make it clear they take issue with me before we’ve even gotten close enough to interact. ♂️ [dark-skinned man shrugging emoji] There’s a reason why I prefer to have my food delivered out here.
So in the end, I had a choice: get food from somewhere else or consume what definitely has more than just spit in it. You’d think, with everything going on right now, people would stop punching down. But if it’s the only way they can feel good about themselves then they’re probably worse off than I thought.
We each got the taco Birria plate which comes with consome and salsas. The salsas are .
On Tuesday they 20 Birria tacos for $35. They also have a full menu of other various mexican dishes
This is so dangerous – I work near here and it will be hard to resist coming here all of the time.
