Dean H.Dean Hardwick: Most everything. The breakfast burrito smothered in red (hotter than the gren chii) or green chili is feast for breakfast. Love the NM flavor.

Estevan T.Estevan Tafoya: Their breakfast burritos, specifically with bacon and green, are like heaven inside a delish fluffy buttery tortilla of goodness. Definitely one of the top breakfast burrito places in town.

Danielle P.Danielle Perkins: Brisket tacos!

D'Aun R.D'Aun Robinson: They are now open really early (like 4 a.m.) with a burrito, a donut, and coffee to go for $6

ReyRey: Nothing on their menu is over $9.00. It's bigger than what it looks from outside. Check it out. Look for that Blue Guitar 2 1/2 blocks north of Montano on Edith. They have menudo everyday.

Leslie D.Leslie Driskill: Some of the best New Mexican food I’ve ever had! Can’t wait to return next time I’m home.

Sarah M.Sarah M: Simply THE BEST late night eats in Albuquerque. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu, but my favorites are the fish tacos and the carne asada fries (way too generous a helping not to share).

Shelly V.Shelly Valenzuela: It's not cash only and it's super fantastic! Plus $1 tacos on Tues and Thurs :)

Mia W.Mia Webb: Good fish tacos, a tad bit on the pricey side for what you get. I would definitely like to try everything else on the menu.
