Had an amazing lunch special of stuffed sopaipilla. I paired it with a fantastic margarita. The service was good, the atmosphere great. The company was the best! This was a special lunch reconnecting with an old high school friend. A reunion 30 years in the making.

I was super excited to go sit outside on the beautiful patio after a long day of work, but that didn’t happen! I waited over 10 minutes to even be acknowledged, asked to sit outside & was told it’s already closed. Got sat next to the windows, which was covered in sun & hot as all heck in the restaurant. Waited another 10-15 minutes to order my drink and get it, not even a water while I was waiting. The salsa was disappointing, no flavor, no heat, nada. I ordered a side of Chicharrones & red chile, again, NO FLAVOR at all to the Chicharrones! I added so much salt just for flavor, but it really didn’t help. Really disappointing all the way around, and 30 bucks!!!

I ordered two burritos today for $20. The chicharron burrito with cheese, Xmas, beans, and hash browns. You really going to charge me this much for a burrito that has TWO chicharrons in the entire burrito, no hash browns, tasteless chile, and just filled with beans?? I literally paid for a bean burrito with cheese and chile. Added onions just to have something in it.
Can say I won’t be back.

Everyone was so friendly and treated our elder parents like special guests. Irma was a fantastic server; our orders were tricky and yet she accommodated each happily, so we could get all our desires met. Delicious shredded beef, red chile, adovada and rellenos. The live music was a sweet touch!

This place recently went up for sale and I really hope someone buys it. The food tastes homemade and authentic. I get the old fashioned enchiladas and they taste how my grandma made them. You can tell it is real chicken, homemade Chile and good quality cheese. I like anlot of other new Mexican restaurants in Albuquerque bit you can honestly tell some of the food may have been canned and this place is very much homemade. I need someone to buy it and keep it going please.

Always one of my favorite New Mexican restaurants. The food was tasty, just wish the chile was a but hotter. The salsa, queso and guacamole were amazing! My only complaint is my server wasn’t keeping my glass full, or asking if we needed refills, but other than that…everything was great!! Oh yeah…chicharones were on point!!

Beautiful environment, fajitas were great, sopapillas were better, unfortunately the hamburger patties are not good at all.

I haven’t been to Albuquerque to eat at this restaurant in over 20 years. It is still the absolute best and the service is phenomenal! If you’re ever looking for something truly authentic New Mexican make sure you come here.

Breakfast in the cafe in back is great! It’s all served to go, but you can eat in.

Casa de Benavidez never disappoints! My husband had the shredded beef chimi, and I enjoyed a combo plate with a chile relleno and cheese enchilada. Generous portions—though I wished I had a little more for leftovers! The sopapillas were perfectly pillowy, and the Baileys coffee was so fresh it made me realize I might actually like hot coffee after all. Service was quick, our server was attentive, and the hostess was incredibly sweet and welcoming We’ll definitely be back soon!
