So I got into Albuquerque early, and wanted lunch even though it was a little before 11am (having come from the east cost). This place inside the 505 food hall was recommended to me by Mia, the local Albuquerque community manager. I got there about 10:55, they open at 11, and knew what I wanted to eat about two minutes prior to that. I approached the counter... and well... was told not to for two more minutes, pretty curtly. OK fine, i can respect that, and the fact your day must not be off to a good start. So I come back at 11:01 and place my order for the El Burqueno burger with fries. That's a double smash cheeseburger with fried onions, green chiles, and a garlic ailoi on a grilled buttered bun. I grab a seat nearby to wait, and can see a commotion forming around the kitchen. Apparently, their frier would not turn on, so basically fries were taken to another restaurant in the food hall, brought back, and served to me. Which made things take a little longer, but was more a point of craziness for the staff than me. Neither the fries, or the burger suffered at all. In fact, the burger was one of the most on-point smashburgers I have had in recent memory. A wonderful brown crust on both smashed patties, and skirted with lots of melty cheese. The bun definitely had a rich buttery flavor, and it all came together nicely. So, mild curtness and foibles aside, this was a great stop, and I would recommend it to others seeking a smashburger adorned with chiles.

I stood on line to order for maybe 10 minutes or so. I had the Carne Adovada Burrito, one soft Beef Taco, and rice and beans. Everything was excellent and tasted delicious. The price was very reasonable. I wish we had a restaurant like this on Long Island.

Directly across the street from University of New Mexico's main entrance, this place is packed when school is in session. This place is huge, but not at first glance. Walk into the retro-looking, Western themed dining room, and you'll see a huge menu board above the order counter. There is are several freestyle soda machines in the middle of the room. There are little digital screens in the corner where you watch for your order number and a counter in the corner where you go pick up your food. It's not until you go into the next room that you discover there is another "next room," and then another. There is a lot of art on the walls, including several John Wayne pictures. The girl at the counter who took our order was an absolute ray of sunshine--so friendly and sweet. We ordered the green chili cheeseburger with onion rings and the daily special which is the "green pile-up" (beans, hash browns, scrambled egg, and green chili beef). The good came our talented quickly, and was quite yummy. Frontier is an Albuquerque classic. If it old? Yes, but it has a huge faithful following, not including the things of UNM students that pack this giant diner during the school year.

We were staying in a motel down the street and got up the next morning and backtracked to come visit and get some burritos after looking on yelp and hearing how great they were. So I was prepared for it to look like a house and maybe to have a problem parking, but there was NO problem parking in fact I was able to park right out front on the street. There is actually a parking lot across the street too, so I don't see what the issue would be parking here. We intended on ordering a few breakfast burritos and take them along with us for the road, but it smelled so good in here and the music was great as well as the company, so we decided to at least sit down and taste our burritos before heading on our way. Turns out it was too hard for my husband to stop so he finished his and ordered another to go for later. Everything is hot and fresh. The eggs are cracked and cooked right after you order they have more than just breakfast burritos here and I imagine everything would be just as great. We definitely know where to go when we come back to town. If you are looking for a nice hot breakfast with some very friendly people this is your place. The owners are so friendly and I didn't even mention how reasonably priced they are. This is something that you usually don't see. I see that they are close to the courthouse. I would imagine serving jury duty here would be awesome! I would be coming here every day and trying everything on the menu at lunch. If you are anywhere nearby or even if you're just driving through town on route 66 take a detour and come find them it will be well worth it!
