  | Albuquerque Restaurants 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.

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) Add a Review  Flying Star CaféSun-Thurs: 6am-10pm

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) Add a Review
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.

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) Add a Review 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) Add a Review Loyola's Family RestaurantTues-Fri: 6am-2pm

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 tortillas and gorgeous red chile posole, made fresh to order, or the tender (!) country-fried steak. But you can’t go after 2 p.m. or on Mondays. It’ll be closed. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010) Add a Review 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) Add a Review Creatively Southern accurately describes Amy Black's superb menu. Her wild-caught shrimp over creamy goat cheese grits (stone ground in SC) is one of many dishes to warm your soul.

Sat 7:30am-2:30pm
Closed Sunday (subject to change) Cuisine: New Mexican
This is the place to get the Best Posole in town, according to our restaurant polls. 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) View/Add Reviews [ 3 ] 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) Add a Review  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, November 17, 2011) Add a Review This little restaurant clings close to the heart of Downtown on Sixth Street and Silver, and the food is actually made by Cecilia herself in the kitchen. The tacos, burritos and enchiladas are traditional, tasty and pretty friggin’ cheap, too. The red chile packs a wallop, and Cecilia’s is even open on Sundays.

Owner Nancy Rogers makes at least two flavors of mouthwatering scones every morning near the Artichoke Café on Central. Try the raspberry: a buttery little nugget served warm, perfectly crumbly and bursting with real raspberries. Inhale it and lick the plate. D.G. also serves good coffee, omelets, breakfast burritos and more.
