I've been hearing wonderful things about Isleta Grill since moving here last year but something has always come up and I've been unable to try it until today. It was absolutely worth the wait and it won't be that long until I try it again. They've been through a lot this year with someone crashing into their brick and mortar location, that didn't stop them from wanting to serve up New Mexico's best green chile cheeseburgers. Even in a food truck on 100° day the staff was very helpful and extremely friendly. They answered any questions I had and were patient with me. I placed my order and even got to go back to my car to wait as he said he would bring it to me. How amazing that even with the food truck I get to relax in my air conditioning while he worked hard for me. My husband got a green chili cheeseburger meal and I got green chile cheese fries (with extra green chile). I've been searching for the best green chile since moving here a year ago and today I found it. I wouldn't consider it to be a hot chile (MAYBE medium) but the flavor was incredible. They had it prepared properly with all the right seasoning. I'm already dreaming and craving my next green chile fix from Isleta Grill. The burger may not look like much in the picture, but my husband loved every bite. There was nothing left to be seen other than the packaging after we demolished an amazing meal. I cannot recommend them enough and I will be back very soon. read more

The most unprofessional people working there as well as the owner. And the food is is not even good. I think they pay for good reviews.

I've passed by this place so many times and wish I would've tried it sooner! I want to try other things on the menu but I can't get past how delicious the Indian taco with green chili is! It's better than waiting for the state fair Indian tacos and much more reasonable! I will definitely come back next time I'm in the area. They also very accommodating for me since I was 30 minutes away, they held off on making my order. I appreciate their kindness! read more

Good morning on this fine August day from Central New Mexico. The boys from the VA Creative Writing Group ventured south of Albuquerque to the Isleta Pueblo and their small truck stop, the Isleta Grill @47. Why @47? Because their address is 4047 New Mexico Highway 47. And do they make tasty food? We tried a variety of their traditional Native American offerings, which are displayed in the following YouTube video link - just click on it and get taken to an excellent small restaurant where you order at the counter, see them cook your meal right behind the counter, and are greeted by a friendly and efficient staff. https://youtu.be/IqOS8b7lj7E?si=7SVHGKXPfPZOsVUt read more

What can I say. #1 Green Chili Burger at NM State Fair 2 years in a row! Whether you are staying at the Isleta Casino or the Isleta Lakes RV Park, it is a must try! read more

Amazing food. Definitely worth the stop! Service and cleanliness was outstanding! Easy off and on access from and to I-25. Also conveniently located with a store and gas station. Great little place!! read more

The burgers are great and the people that work there are great! Very friendly and excellent food.

Legit burger (plus other stuff) joint. The place is clean/tidy and made to order burger was delivered immediately off the grill (so hot that I had to let it cool a bit). You can see the whole cooking operation. It very apparent that they care about doing good at their job. I would be a regular if this joint was anywhere near me. read more

The BEST native food south of I25. All of the food is delicious and made with lots of love. They really take pride in cooking and assembling it ... it looks just like the pictures. One time I asked if the chile was homemade and she answered "Of course it is!" It's a little hole in the wall, and is very clean. Today I learned that they are the 2024 State Fair Green Chile Cheeseburger champions. Great food!!! read more

Isleta Grill @47 - Frito pie with red chile - Burgers Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

The best green chili cheese burger, try it on fry bread. Award winner at the state fair 2004 and 2005.

First time visit. When we got there it was lunch time and it was fairly busy. There were only 2 open tables. Service was quick. The woman at the register took our order quickly. After we ordered and sat a ton more people started to arrive and order. It was busy and a bit loud but not overly so. We got our food and I was a bit disappointed that they put chile on my frybread burger even though I clearly asked for it without. Normally this is not a big deal, but recently cannot enjoy chile like I used to due to acid reflux... taking off the chile took off all the cheese on my burger... however I will say if you enjoy hot chile... this is a great place to go... the remnants that I could not remove we very spicy and full of heat for those that like hot chile. The spiral fries were superb read more

We came back to try a couple other items on the menu and again I was not disappointed! This place is a hidden gem! This time we tried a breakfast burrito, a sarape dog, and some steak fajitas. It was all delicious. Everything they make here is great. I highly recommend this place. I can't wait til I come back and try something new. Two thumbs up from me!!! read more

I had been wanting to try this place ever since they won the Green Chile Cheeseburger Challenge at the New Mexican State Fair. The burger was absolutely delicious! I had to wait about 20 minutes, but it was worth the wait! The fry bread was really good. I ordered a frito pie burrito but received a breakfast burrito, so that bummed me out. I went around 11:30 and it wasn't too busy, but by noon the lunch rush was crazy which was a good indicator that people really enjoy eating here. read more

Definitely some of the best New Mexican food in the city. The service is always great. Friendly people and service with a smile. Ambiance is welcoming and comfortable. My favorite is the taco burgers. They're the best I've had in the city so far. Definitely a must try restaurant while you're in the city!!! Not to mention they have the state fair award winning green chile cheese burger!!! read more

The food is delicious staff could be a little more friendly and I went to get ketchup in the container. All the packs were so sticky and dirty seating area could use some cleaning in condiment area read more

The service was fast and friendly and the food came out fast and hot . The Indian taco was very good

Really good chile cheeseburger. It's a tiny place and it was full. We had to take our order to go.

Customer service stinks and very dirty, order was wrong , accused me of I ordered wrong person was hateful and this was my first time there. Will not return or recommend this place all was very rude and heard the were good and I as absolutely not read more

ALERT - BEST IN NEW MEXICO - ALERT OMG, six star review ahead. What a wonderful surprise. Driving south on our way to Tucson and hungry. Pulled into Isleta Grill (just south of the airport) and discovered a true gem. Best cheeseburger yet (I have been searching everywhere in New Mexico), super fresh meat and fresh cut vegetables. The french fries tasted fresh as well and actually tasted like potatoes instead of fryer oil - wonderful. Everything was perfectly cooked, juicy, hot, delicious. Burger comes in 1/4 lb. or 1/2 lb. The folks were as friendly as you can imagine and the owner was rightfully proud of her restaurant and you could feel that in everything. Great place and plan to return often. read more

I've always enjoyed and very happy with their food and service. Today I finally got to try their FryBread Pizza, and it's very very good. You have to try it, as well as all their food. read more

Isleta Grill @47 - Workers hustling to keep up with 20 orders! - Burgers Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

I love this place! Food is always fresh and tastes amazing. I love the quality of their ingredient.

Is this average grub worth gambling on? The mushroom swiss burger was moist and not over cooked. Yes, flavourless. But with condiment assistance, it gets past the ever judicial tongue. The fries were hot and crisp....from a frozen lineage? Yes, most definitely. Worth 7 bills? Only if you've won many times over in their pony-up grand hall. So, yes this fit the bill..:) Thanks for reading. Avram "Kid" Stoner read more

So happy we found this gem on Yelp! Stopped here on our way through Albuquerque. The tortilla burger and ribbon fries are amazing! Great flavors and perfect for eating on the go. Adding this place to our list of must stops every time we travel through. read more

Best Green chili cheese burger in the state!! Will be going here for lots of lunches.

Very poor customer service, treat you like your a bother. This has happened to me more than once, very rude ladies gives you the impression your food will be made out of malice. With not a single person in their area you would think they would appreciate your business, especially the locals. But I can see why they have no customers, very cold atmosphere. I do not recommend this place. Now the lady at the register is such a kind person very pleasant. Only gas and that's all for me and only when they are cheaper than across the street. read more

Good service, friendly staff and foods is good ,burgers,breakfast sandwiches,lunch specials are a must .

This place is the freaking bomb-diggity! Have I mentioned before that I work in the South Valley and there really isn't much nearby. My office is literally on the outskirts of town so when this place opened up, it was a godsend. Sooooo much better then all the fast food options off of isleta. Now, I know the chances of you stopping by here may be quite slim unless you are heading to bosque farms, or perhaps anywhere down south. (Unless you work in the area of course!) Should you find your self nearby, lets just hope that you are hungry and have the time to eat. It's safe to say that we have tried most everything on the menu here between myself and the work fam. My absolute hands down favorite is their Breakfast Burrito Sausage with Red Chile! I'm going to say this, I'm putting it out there, my favorite breakfast burrito in town. There it's done. You must come try it. Their breakfast sausage is so tasty, seasoned and cooked perfectly every time. Its bundled together in a tortilla with potatoes and eggs. Every bite is covered in red chile. Their red chile, soooo good. It's not as hot as I usually prefer my red chile to be but the flavor is just right. The whole flavor experience of this burrito is just so savory and perfect! I get cravings for this burrito. Hmmmmmmm....must prevent myself from drooling. Let me tell you about some of the other deliciousness they can provide you with. The Huevos Rancheros is also hugely popular as well as their Indian Taco. Frito Pie is scrumptious (of course it has the red chile on it)! The burgers are on point and they offer french fries or ribbon fries! It's like fair time all the time! Get the ribbon fries and ask for them extra crispy and they will fry them a bit longer for you, and get them covered in chile and cheese too! Also, everything is made to order. So sometimes it can take a little longer than you want it too. Be prepared and be patient. I will usually call my order in ahead and even then still wait a bit longer then their quote time before I head over. No worries though. I don't mind waiting for something good and oh so satisfying! read more

Their breakfast burritos are amazing. Also if you call a day ahead you can get fresh oven bread.

Best damn burger and chip fries I've ever had! Simply delicious! Everyone needs to try this place.

So this place is AMAZING! I do not know why it has taken me so long to eat there when I have worked down the road for almost two years. Suddenly, I feel so much regret...*sigh* I ordered the patty melt, always a go to for me, and it shook me out of my boots it was so good. The bread was toasted perfectly and buttered just enough. Perfect proportions of meat and melty jack cheese; mmmm! The customer service was on point. The chef just finished culinary school in December (reason for the grill closing for a little while), but she's back! And killin' it! I cannot wait to try more of the menu. read more

I love their breakfast sandwich. The breakfast burrito is really good too. These ladies hustle hard to make all of the delicious food. I only gave four stars because the shaved ham on the grilled ham and cheese disappointed me. I understand using it, but I prefer a ham steak on mine. Other than that, it's five stars! read more

Great food and prices no pictures sorry I ate the food thank you isleta grill recommend every thing

Amazingly good food maybe tucked away but excellent find and the ladies working there will take care of you and make sure you get what you want to eat. read more

Another reviewer, Julie, sold me, as soon as she began waxing poetic about the Isleta Grill's breakfast burrito, a roll of art that -- she posited -- was the very greatest to be found anywhere throughout Albuquerque. This was no minor statement, especially because I could recognize, via the poetry, that she was a soul sistah. Her appreciation for the balance between sweet sausage, fresh fried potato, hearty red chile and those grand airy eggos that space all the cheese gooeyness and heft apart, that handheld symphony I could eat all day long, she got it. So I got it, handheld (you can do smothered around here, as well). Great. Not quite at the very tippy top of my list -- that's shared with 2G's Bistro and Monica's El Portal -- but absolutely delicious, and yeah, go with the sausage. This is a legit little eatery that shuts the doors at 2pm, but no worries, they're friendly and they'll cook up and until 2pm. Specials look pretty tasty, everything is a bargain, and it's fresh prepared at that there grill in a jif. You can't miss at this place, enjoy. read more
