The food and service are excellent and I like that it's family owned and operated! The ambience is very unique

Me and my hubby came to check out Baca Boys Cafe a couple of months back because we heard they had a good Monte Cristo and we had some business to tend to downtown. Well my husband finally got to taste the Monte Cristo and he loved it. He was very happy with every component on his plate. I decided to have a combination plate so I could taste a couple of things at the same time and boy did I enjoy everything. Everything was super delicious and I can't wait to comeback for more. Restaurant is small but very cozy. Staff is super friendly read more

Today my travels took me to Albuquerque, NM. The hotel I stayed at recommended the Baca Boys Cafe. Great recommendation! Just around the corner, I found their cute mom and pop restaurant. The interior is simple but clean. The staff were overly friendly and welcoming! I sat at there diner bar style seating instead of a table. Their menu has several breakfast and lunch items available. I chose the pork in red chile sauce. It came with eggs, potatoes, and beans. The food came really quick, within 5-7 min. It was delicious!! The diced pork wasn't dry and blended perfectly in their flavorful red chile sauce. I tried the green chile sauce too, and it's fantastic but does carry some heat (just a nice warm glow not blazing hot). The potatoes, scrambled eggs, and beans bursted with flavor in the chile sauce. The sides were plentiful in quantity. If you are in downtown Albuquerque, you have to try Baca Boys!! read more

My husband and I came here for breakfast on a weekend and the place wasn't busy at all but had a cool vibe to it. It's a hole in the wall place off of Central but the waiter was super nice. The menu is a bit small but had enough options, the food was delicious and the green chile had a bite. read more

My first visit to this establishment was May 6, 2025. There is nearby parking on the street or in parking garage is not too far away. I went slightly after the lunch hour, so it was not crowded. I am told it can be crowded at lunchtime. There are many good choices New Mexican food choices on the menu. Staff was friendly and accommodating. Decor is casual. I had the bean burrito with side of Mexican rice. My dining companion had enchiladas. We each agreed that our food was delicious. Prices are excellent. read more

This picture really doesn't do it justice, but the breakfast burrito was fire . So let me tell you I was on a little obsession about finding a good breakfast burrito in Albuquerque and I tried at least 5 highly rated ones. None of them were as good as the one from baca boys. Their burrito was cheesy, moist, very easy to eat and full of flavor. I just can't say enough good things about it. read more

Baca Boys Cafe - Handheld Breakfast Burrito - New Mexican Cuisine Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

I ordered a side of sour cream but it tasted fishy and had clumps and was really gooey made me nauseous

Excellent food and service. A lot of good stuff on the menu. If you have not checked it out, do so. read more

Came in for breakfast at 8am on a Wednesday. Not busy at all, service was prompt and attentive. Ordered relleno breakfast and a breakfast burrito with coffee, both were very good and satisfying. read more

The service was excellent and the food was delicious! It was low key but definitely recommended if you are in downtown Albuquerque!

They are open early. Their breakfast is good. If you need something to eat in ABQ before 8 am, this is a good place to go.

Only takeout Chicken Taco Salad was good a bit doughy shell. They are reasonable and the enchilada place was a hit with my friends.

How does it keep getting BETTER? Never miss a chance to visit on annual ABQ trip. Somehow the calabacitas were even more glorious than last year. Fantastic service as always read more

Excellent! Carne Adovada breakfast plate was amazing. Meat had some bite but just right. Potatoes were good. Eggs cooked perfectly. Beans were right. Tortilla was so so. Not too much flavor. Coffee food. Friendly. I enjoyed! Small breakfast menu but good. The handheld burrito was amazing. Only a take out item. But well worth it and the tortilla is perfect with that. read more

I ordered a handheld breakfast burrito with carne adovada* Xmas style based on reviews on here and it didn't disappoint. I ordered it because all the local breakfasts spots were closed. Service was pretty quick and honestly, I don't even like breakfast burritos but it was so good, I had to write a review. No photo because it was demolished. Handheld was the most perfect size though read more

$5 take away burrito was delicious. Good size, not small, but not massive either. Bout the size of a large taco Bell burrito, but nowhere near chipotle size Fluffy eggs, couldn't really make out the red/gree chili sauce, but the inside was gooey and delicious. Carne adovada was good, but not my cup of tea as it was a little chunkier than how I like any protein in my burritos. Nice guy working the front. Inside was empty and welcoming, almost wish I stayed, but then I couldn't get the $5 special. read more

Had the breakfast burrito. Great place for good Mexican and American dishes. Service was timely and professional. read more

1/10/23 - We arrived at 12:16 and didn't get our food yet...it's 1:03. They're so slow and we need to go. It looked good but don't come here on a time schedule or for lunch break unless you beat the rush I guess. We just got told they'll box and give us 1/2 off. We'll see. Food wise I cannot speak on it. Yet....I got it to go. UPDATE - We loved the food and the green Chile was my favorite. I also feel the way the owner stayed calm while being confronted by an angry customer was phenomenal. I get they were short staffed, but still I couldn't ignore the lateness and I would've probably suggested to go drinks too as well as the much appreciated 50% off. I do appreciate a good combo plate. I liked the food just be sure you have time just in case. Unfortunately we're from out of town but hopefully you'll have better luck time wise and you'll enjoy the food. read more

I've been to Baca Boys Cafe several times & they always please so wonderfully! Suzie's Salad with salmon (including a homemade banana bread dessert!) is my go-to, but I've had many other dishes that are also delicious! The service is always exceptional, too! I like the location & its a cute space. All around a win at Baca Boys Cafe! read more

I highly recommend this restaurant! I love their Huevos rancheros fried eggs with red chili add steak! It's absolutely delicious. The service is great, I'm almost positive it's all family working together which is every better. Very clean restaurant. read more

Really good place for lunch. Service was great and the atmosphere was buzzing. Drinks were also well made.

Can't go wrong with the Baca boys! One of the best spots in Albuquerque. I love the breakfast burritos!

Found this place via Yelp with great reviews. So glad I stopped by as we were looking for a place that had breakfast burritos. Our burritos were amazingly delicious and fat! The person helping was very helpful. Didn't stay in to eat, but it's definitely a great spot to come and enjoy your food. read more

A new, small, family owned restaurant that might be worth the visit one day. Since they are a new restaurant you can tell that they have a few kinks to work through. One being atmosphere, and service. The service was slow and not very attentive. And the atmosphere is very plain since the room is pretty small. What was really good was the food. I got a Monte Cristo Sandwich, my BF got the Carne Adovada and Eggs and we shared a bowl of Green Chile Stew. It was good homemade NM food. read more

We found this place on Yelp and it was perfect for brunch. I had the monte cristo sandwich and it was so good. I am not normally one for sweet & salty combo, but it tasted great. The place is not huge and it filled up quick. Every table was taken and they had to turn people away so obviously the place is good. The prices are reasonable and the staff is nice. Overall, a great place for lunch. read more

We have never been here but found out it's been there since 2015. It was slightly hidden off Central and easy to miss if you drive by but worth checking it out. I ordered the carne adovada and eggs breakfast with papitas and red chile. Eggs were cooked perfectly and the red chile was tasty. Our server was friendly and attentive. read more

Baca Boys Cafe - Carne adovada breakfast - New Mexican Cuisine Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

In addition to the fantastic breakfast burrito (that Carne Adovada was superb), I was delighted to see the person working the counter interacting with a homeless person on a personal level. Helping him with his coffee, asking about his day, how his parents were. We're passing through on a huge road trip, started in Portland. Homeless are treated like sub human there more often than not. Glad to see a business give a damn. read more

This place is still going strong! This is our weekend breakfast place and everything I've had here surpasses expectations and is divinely amazing. This place has effectively ruined every other New Mexican eatery for us. Anyways, we tasted a new dish here: the caramel pecan roll and it like everything else here is very very delicious. Absolutely recommend this and also everything else on their menu. read more

Once again looking for a place to eat nearby to where we were going led us here. Pretty easy to find - right off Central. Meter parking out front - but there was one close by. Walked inside to a small - 12 table shop. Found a table and was met by a very cheery server for out drink orders. Drinks arrived and food orders taken - chile rellano & tostada compuesto. She returns to tell me they're out of rellanos. Aaarrgghh you're killin' me. Ok I'll take the patty melt instead. Profuse apologies - no worries it happens. She returns with chips and salsa. Salsa's pretty good. Food arrived, the compuestos came out in home fried corn tortilla cups in chicken, pork & beef. Nicely spiced and delicious. The calabacitas were firm not overcooked. The party melt was cooked medium, the meat moist and well seasoned. A delicious choice. Service was excellent , our server was constantly checking on us. Not a bad choice for lunch. read more

Large beer selection. Plenty of menu items to choose from. There's definitely something for everyone here.

I came in on Sunday 01 with my family and we enjoyed our meal. Hit the spot. The food was excellent. I had Huevos Rancheros with an extra egg and an extra tortilla. Delicious and cooked to perfection. The servers were very engaged with customers and awesome team work. I will be coming back. I give this restaurant 10 read more

Baca Boys Cafe - Carne Adovada and Eggs / Christmas chili. - New Mexican Cuisine Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

The food was traditional New Mexico. It was authentic and tasty. The waiter provided amazing service, I highly recommend this cafe.

I was craving tacos. This place was within walking distance of work so I gave them a try. Small but comfy space. Nice staff. The Calabacitas were some of the best I've ever had. I'd go back just for them. Tacos were just fine, nothing special but not awful. Affordable. read more

Great NM lunch. Server was fantastic. Highly recommend the calabacitas with the red enchiladas.

Service was excellent but food was so so. Not inspired. Depends on your options but maybe I just didn't order too well

A nice little sit down cafe serving a typical new mexican fare which means burgers and plates with beans and rice or calabacitas (mixed squash). The salsa starter was delicious but not much to share amongst 5 people. Parties for 6 or more will need to pay extra to split checks. I got the combo green plate with calabalcitas which was a lot of food. It came with an enchilada and meat tamales and taco. I was surprised the taco was a hardshell with lettuce, cheese, and ground meat (like taco bell) and not the LA taco truck type tacos. Tamales were pretty salty and even though the sauce and cheese made it saltier, it was flavorful. Green and red chile were both delicious. Overall a decent experience but not quite mindblowing. read more
