Parked my rig at Flying J truck stop for Panda Express, for my 8 hours shift break and found Don…read moreTortas.........wow... Like if you told me the owner of this restaurant is the head of the Sinaloa Cartel, I would not be fazed. And if you told me you interviewed the Cartel Boss and asked him. " why did you open Don Tortas?" I won't be surprised if the boss replied, "Well...there was no authentic Tacos & Tortas in Albuquerque, and so this is me doing community service....for the community..." And so I have to be very straight up. This place has some of the best Tacos and Tortas I've had outside of Los Angeles. And they have EVERY possible Salsa you see at a LA taco stand. I've had Mexican food in the likes of Denver, Dallas, El Paso, Phoenix and this by far is the best I've had, outside of the cradle of Hispanic Civilization, Baja Cali. The Tortas La Buchona was packed with every type of meat you can think of packing into a sandwich...Al Pastor, Polish Sausage....pork hind, eggs, cheese, jalapenos...almost took on a Cuban personality. The tripitas tacos were crunchy as requested, and honestly tasted better than Tacos Mexico down in La Puente California with less of the intestinal tastes. The Al Pastor with a bbqed pineapple on top was chef's kiss, was marinated just right, right amount of char, and both crispy crunchy and fatty, paired together with onions and cilantro... I almost forgot I'm in the dead winter of Albuquerque New Mexico circa January 2026. Side note: Going to jot down the soundtrack names that they're playing...Eres Tu by Klazykeroz, Reina Del Amor Wepa; what an experience. So glad I walked in here over Panda. When in Albuquerque!

I ordered the beef taquitos, and unfortunately, they were a bit disappointing. There was hardly any beef filling, and they were mostly tortilla. I was hoping for a little more substance and flavor. Overall, it's a nice local restaurant with good service and a pleasant atmosphere. I just wouldn't necessarily come here expecting any culinary delicacies. It's more of a simple, hometown-style spot, and there's nothing wrong with that!

Wish that the bacon had been a bit crisper but sometimes you cannot always get what you want. When i was there you order at ABQ coffee instead of at the truck itself they were pretty nice and informed me order inside. I don't know if 12 dollars is worth it for the Burrito it was a good size but it was not made "to order" it was in a hot box. Don't get me wrong it was good I was full and I will prolly go back, but I don't think this will be a regular breakfast for me.

We were traveling from North Carolina to our home in San Diego…read more We looked up places to eat and were tired of "road trip food". We found Herencia and took a chance. We know good Mexican food, as we are from San Diego, and wanted to try the southwest fare. WHAT AN AMAZING CHOICE! The lovely hostess was charming, engaging and sweet (wish i had her name) and our waiter (Edgar) was authentic, personable and fun to chat with. We had been at a movie and had eaten a bit too much popcorn so we did not order a lot. The three of us shared the free blue corn (not fried) chips with three salsa samples. We then shared a salad and the amazingly good four taco sampler. Thank you Herencia (Enrique the owner, and staff) for this wonderful evening.

They also had a lot of other good vegetarian options and verified everything with the kitchen on that front which made me feel like they really cared about making sure.

This alone will keep me coming back over and over. I still can't stop thinking about it. If you like coffee and you have had it anywhere in Mexico or Latin America made in a clay pot and you like it. You will absolutely love it here. We also ordered the rotisserie chicken that came with 2 sides. The chicken was delicious and flavorful and the two sides (rice & beans) were a nice addition but did lack a little bit of salt for my taste. We also had some Asada Sopes which were very delicious. We will definitely be coming back to try some of their other dishes. The Restaurant and bathroom were nice and clean and Service was fast and friendly. Definitely recommend

The burgers were cooked perfect and were still juicy. Some of their burgers come with pineapple and I have to admit, I'm curious as to what they taste like. Clean place and not a lot of indoor seating. Everything still tasted great at home. Highly recommended. Menu Is attached
