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.

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.

This super-cute new shop, in the old Relish space Downtown, serves a hefty menu of inspired hot and cold sandwiches. There’s an emphasis on homemade touches, from the sweet onion jam on the roast beef sandwich to the cookie that comes with every order. Good salads, daily made-from-scratch soups and a new sandwich special every day keep the lunch crowd on its toes. (Alibi Staff, November 4, 2010) View/Add Reviews [ 2 ]  Café LushMon-Fri 7am-3pm

Café Lush is like a daydream of the way things might be in some future hybrid of Europe and Albuquerque. It’s an urban café on a quiet street corner, with a small menu of simple yet well-crafted dishes and a pledge to use local, seasonal and organic ingredients whenever possible. But unlike in Europe, the red and green chile won’t disappoint. Now serving brunch on Saturdays!

(Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010) View/Add Reviews [ 8 ] Gold Rush CupcakesMonday-Friday 10 am - 3 pm (subject to change)
Moist cake, exceptional cream cheese frosting, and inspired flavors and decorations (the adorable “breakfast” cupcake is topped with a diminutive stack of “pancakes,” strips of “bacon” and a sunny-side-up “egg”) are a treasure on their own. Wholesome and affordable sandwiches, a staggering menu of “create your own cupcake” options, and daily specials are just the icing on the cake.

Tue-Sat 7 am-9 pm

Gold Street was cool before Downtown was cool, but now that Downtown is cool, Gold Street is even cooler. Open for breakfast and lunch (and now dinner service on the weekends!), this charming café has pet-friendly sidewalk seating and serves up a menu of homey breakfast favorites like waffles and sophisticated lunches. It shouldn’t surprise you that the place with the Best Bacon in our restaurant poll also makes a memorable BLT. If you’re really lucky, they’ll have freshly baked cupcakes or a slice of flourless chocolate cake waiting for dessert.

This ray of sunshine in Huning Highland serves gourmet breakfast and lunch, sells house-made English muffins, and has a mini-shop filled with goodies like honey, jams, mustards and vinegars, not to mention non-edibles like cook books, serving vessels and cards. A tiny wine list is just as chic—five reds and five whites are marked on a chalkboard, and all are constantly changing. This list is extremely well thought-out and offers a sampling of some of the most esoteric varietals and brands available in Albuquerque. There’s also a large, shaded patio, incredible house-made cupcakes and too-cute French
macarons. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010) View/Add Reviews [ 5 ] La Quiche is an authentic French bakery from husband-and-wife team Sabine Pasco and Bruno Barachin. (Bruno is from Bordeaux, where he achieved Master Baker status years ago.) In addition to a large menu of sandwiches, pâtés, soups and stews (the
bourguignonne
is served in a house-made pastry shell), La Quiche sells loaves of country bread, fantastically complicated bread showpieces and
viennoiseries—
flaky, buttery pastries like
brioche
,
croissants
and
pain au chocolate
that traditionally came from Vienna. They use imported French butter, and it shows. The fruit tarts are the best in town. You'll also find a catering menu and a variety of quiches, ready to go for Downtown’s abundant supply of workers with little time for a proper lunch. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010) View/Add Reviews [ 8 ] A good bet for Greek/American in the heart of Downtown’s bustling Fourth Street business area. Take a break from your hectic work schedule with a nice, hot cup of lentil soup, a burger and a big smile from the friendly staff. Low carb options are abundant. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010) Add a Review Downtown chowhounds can enjoy a light, simple and delicious breakfast or lunch at the Roma Bakery and Deli. Choose three salads from the deli case (the spicy tuna is a must-try) or get the Magnífica deli-style sandwich filled with salami, pepperoni and turkey topped with balsamic vinaigrette for a filling meal at a great price. As a bonus, Oscar tucks away a homemade cookie for dessert, or you can eyeball other fresh bakery treats behind the glass to take for later. Delish. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010) Add a Review Albuquerque - FairgroundsThis old-school sandwich emporium won 2007’s categories for Best Sandwich and Best Soup. It prepares satisfying hot and cold hoagies at a decent price, with a chocolate chip cookie thrown in at no extra charge. The "sundown" is a staple for chronic dine-’n’-drivers; basically a turkey dinner in sandwich form, complete with stuffing and cranberry sauce. Try it on toasted whole wheat or sourdough instead of the standard roll, which quickly becomes too soggy to eat while steering, talking on your cell phone and jotting down the appointment you just made in your BlackBerry.

Sandwich Deli and CANDY! Homemade caramels! (Alibi Staff, December 6, 2012) Add a Review Albuquerque - Far Northeast HeightsBesides having the Best Pizza, according to past Best of Burque Restaurants polls, Dion's also has a wonderful selection of salads (particularly the Greek or any of the “gourmet” salads with microgreens) and sandwiches (the pastrami is especially good). The pizza is made fresh and you can see them rolling and tossing the dough. Dine in or order takeout.
