  | Restaurants in Albuquerque, Santa Fe and Northern New Mexico serving Breakfast AlbuquerqueA New Mexico tradition since 1952! For a quick, award-winning (for both Best Burger and Best French Fries) burger or chili dog, fresh fries and fountain favorites that hit the spot for just a pocketful of change, it’s got to be Blake’s. Countless counters are scattered throughout the city, and each is a model of efficiency and cleanliness. Why look any further? They’re easy to spot from afar—just keep an eye out for the giant Asian Uncle Sam sign. This one even has a drive-through. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010) A New Mexico tradition since 1952!

New Mexican food in the Garduño’s vein—plus burgers and booze—in a bucolic valley setting. In fact, El Bruno’s does indeed occupy the site (and, one might assume, the demographic) of the former North Valley Garduño’s. (Alibi Staff, April 10, 2013)  Firenze: A Mobile Wood Oven PIzzaCall for daily locations and hours. (hours can change without notice)
Steven and Felicia Meyer have had their stylish custom wood oven in tow since April 2011. Featuring local and natural ingredients, this mobile pizzeria sets up outdoors and doles out artisan pizza at hot spots like the Downtown Growers Market and many other events around town. Just follow the fragrance of hardwood smoke. (Alibi Staff, October 25, 2012)  Flying Star CaféSun-Thurs: 6am-10pm
Fri-Sat: 6am-11pm (hours can change without notice)
Winner of Best Casual Dining, Best Veggie Burger, Best Toast, Best Healthy Breakfast and Best Desserts in our restaurant polls. Sure, you go in thinking you’ll be good and get a skinny latte, scrambled egg whites and a side of turkey and green chile sausage, but five minutes later somebody’s saying “eclair” and the voice is coming from your mouth. But, boy, do they taste good. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010)  Fresh Squeezed!Call for location. Often parked at the Downtown Growers Market. (hours can change without notice)
When she’s taking time out from scouting locations for “Breaking Bad” and “In Plain Sight,” Cyndy McCrossen runs Fresh Squeezed! with her son Weston and daughter Penelope. They serve up fresh lemonade and limeade, New York-style egg creams, organic European-style hot dogs and other retro treats. (Alibi Staff, October 29, 2012) The word “gedunk” is a Navy term refering to snack foods and the places they are sold. Fitting, then, for veteran Chef Patrick Humpf’s food truck to bear the name. The menu changes often, and features everyday food with a gourmet twist. One Wednesday, you might partake in a rich dessert like their tasty Boston creme cake, while the next week could bring you face to face with chocolate-piñon-coffee rubbed pork tacos. (Alibi Staff, July 18, 2013) Guava Tree CafeMon-Fri: 9 am-4 pm / Sat-Sun: 11 am-3 pm (hours can change without notice) Cuisine: Caribbean/Cuban, Coffee/Tea/Espresso, Cuban, Deli/Sandwiches, Dessert, Ice Cream/Smoothies, South American
Here, you can eat one of the best green chile burgers in the state of New Mexico. Laguna Burger doesn’t offer much in the way of atmosphere, but more than makes up for it in sheer flavor. (Alibi Staff, October 10, 2012) Little Anita's menu is New Mexican to the core, with enchiladas, burritos, carne adovada and stuffed sopaipillas. The red chile is generally milder than their green but is seasoned just right. Consistency, generous portions and fair prices make Little Anita's an Albuquerque mainstay—not to mention its many locations ranging from full-service dining to quick and easy take-out counters. Open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010) Loyola's Family RestaurantTues-Fri: 6am-2pm
Sat: 6am-1pm
Sun: 7am-1pm
Closed Monday (hours can change without notice)
If you spend just one Saturday morning at Loyola’s, we swear you’ll leave feeling like a regular. And at that point, you probably will be. The food is down-home good and the service is friendly and fast. Wander in for the awesome late ’60s diner atmosphere and stay for the pancakes—they’re made fresh to order and heaped up with genuine love. But you can’t go after 2 p.m. or on Mondays. They’ll be closed. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010) Rey's place Mexican RestaurantMon to Fri 7 am-3 pm

Satellite serves up not only coffee but also burritos, quiches, desserts and pastries. This is a good choice if you’re hungry late. It’s open until at least 10:00 p.m. most nights. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010) Can’t make it to the San Pedro Squeezed location? Never fear, the Squeezed food truck is on the move all over the city, delivering fruity smoothie concoctions, fresh squeezed juice (duh) and even quinoa salads and acai bowls for those who need something solid under their belt. (Alibi Staff, July 18, 2013) Creatively Southern accurately describes Amy Black's superb menu. The ever-changing line-up features such triumphs as wild-caught shrimp over creamy goat cheese grits (stone ground in SC), a variety of po’ boys, and the Breaking Bad inspired Los Pollos Hermanos fried chicken. (Alibi Staff, October 29, 2012) Albuquerque - Downtown Barelas Coffee HouseMon-Fri 7:30am-3pm
Sat 7:30am-2:30pm
Closed Sunday (hours can change without notice) Cuisine: New Mexican
You’d better get to Barelas early on Saturday morning if you don’t want to wait in line for a table. This homey New Mexican joint is popular, and though it’s much bigger inside than you can tell from the street, regulars pack the place tighter than a tamale. Barelas is known for huevos rancheros, and they are tasty here, slathered in particularly good red chile and served on a fresh flour tortilla. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010) This cute, Italian-styled café is tucked between Gold Street Caffé and P’tit Louis Bistro in one of Downtown’s most desirable dining districts. The rest of the place follows suit with bello hand-pressed espresso (tea, too), panini and other Euro-centric treats. (Alibi Staff, July 12, 2011) |
