The restaurant is located in Old Town and was recommended by the staff at our hotel as a local favorite. I have to say, it was the worst meal I have had in a very long time... The guacamole was so bland we resorted to pouring the salsa on top to give it any edible flavor, only to find the... More

A very neat little restaurant that also serves beer & wine located right behind the old church in Old Town. It's one of the oldest homes in town and is said to be haunted by Sarah! Eat inside or enjoy the nice patio outside. Nice menu variety and very friendly service!

I have had great meals here, and disappointing meals here. The wait staff is hit and miss, the food is hit and miss. The hostesses need more training! They often stuff guests in small rooms when there are empty tables in other rooms. I like to have breakfast in the big room in the winter when a fire is burning.... More

We had a great breakfast and the service was excellent as well. I would go back here. The pace was very clean and the history is amazing.

This lovely restaurant was recommended by the ABQTrolley guys when we asked for good local food without the kick. We were very pleased with the food, the service, and the price. We got a discount for riding the trolley. Who could ask for more?

I just finished eating here by myself. I was able to sit outside on the patio. Two Modelo beers and an order of enchiladas was $26. This also included chips, salsa and a sopapilla for dessert. My beef (ground) enchiladas with green sauce were flavorful and the beans were not frijoles.Large portion size. Very polite and efficient waiter. The restaurant... More

We arrived in Old Town a bit late when everything was virtually closed. Only 2 restaurants were said to be open, and this was one of them. I'm glad we picked it. The setting was fabulous, and we dined outside on a marvelous cloud-free evening. Even if we'd been inside, it would have been great. I introduced one family member... More

Recommended by a local colleague, it was everything he said and more. Great food . Loved the chile rellenos! Attentive and friendly staff . It was not crowded while we were there so we were able to wander around the building a bit and the owner gave us a short history. I will go back on the next trip, even... More

My wife and I, visiting from Minnesota, ate here on the recommendation of our motel staff and we were not disappointed. From the outside it appeared as a small place, but I was surprised as we were led through the spacious restaurant out back to the just as spacious patio. We had a very good leisurely meal and had excellent... More

We were walking around Old Town looking for a place for a beer and snack. We came upon a bunch of secret service people standing around outside by their big black SUV's. We asked them who was there and they told us the Mayor. We thought that was a little overkill for a Mayor's security. We went in and there... More
