Albuquerque - Westside
Amadeo’s Pizza and Subs
Mon-Thurs: 11am-9pm
Fri-Sat: 11am-10pm
Sun: noon-8pm (hours can change without notice)
You can bank on getting good pie here. From plain old cheese to the "super combo"—pepperoni, sliced ham, mushrooms, green peppers, red onions, black olives, beef, pork sausage and Italian sausage—all is well. Amadeo's makes them up to 26 inches across. The subs rate just as high. Toasted rolls, baked locally, are stuffed with your choice of meat (salami, ham, meatballs and so on), cheese and veggies. The meatballs are totally boss. Not too heavy with an almost silky texture, they come drowned in a spicy tomato sauce and smothered in mozzarella cheese. Closed Sunday.

Countless counters are scattered throughout the city, and each one is a model of efficiency and cleanliness. Why look any further?

Bob's Burgers
Sun-Thurs: 7:30am-9pm
Fri-Sat: 7:30am-10pm (hours can change without notice)
Cuisine: American
Home of the ranchero burger and a screamin’ $2 Frito pie (which usually takes top honors in our restaurant polls), these burgers are similar to their Lotaburger or Its-a-Burger cousins, except they have loads of green or red chile on them. And Bob's offers "taco burgers"—burgers in taco shells instead of buns. Bob is quite the creative entrepreneur; it shows on the chile-stained faces of his fanatic followers.

Donut Mart
Mon-Sat 5am-8pm
Sun 5am-6pm (hours can change without notice)
Cuisine: Bakery/Sweets
Donut Mart is the home of our new favorite, the “golden coconut” cake doughnut. This circle of goodness melts in your mouth, and its toasty coconut coating adds a delightful crunch. The custard-filled Boston cream wins points with tasters, too. The PB & J and buttermilk cake are also popular.

Order a shrimp cocktail and the menudo to go; you’ll soon be right as rain.

Flix Brewhouse
$$ • Craft Beer
Watch a movie, drink some beer and enjoy a meal at this hybrid theater. While the forgettable in-house beers—actually made by the company—aren’t fulfilling, the theater makes up for it with the loaded fries, tasty pizzas and the silent, yet still friendly, servers.
