Came here to meet a friend for a late breakfast on a Saturday. It was a little busy, but finding a…read moreparking spot wasn't a problem. This place has a little "hip trendy" feel. So its a bit awkward because there is a sign asking you not to seat yourself until you've ordered your food. It can make you feel a little anxious because if its really busy, where are you going to sit. We saw people waiting around not knowing what to do. Let me start by saying our food took way too long to come out, I even saw someone walk out because they were waiting so long on their food. I saw someone waiting for their food who sat close to us, and it turned out to be a to-go and I was like darn, that felt like they waited 20+ mins. For what they have on their menu, I feel like they should be able churn out food orders pretty quick. A couple who ordered after us, got their full food order before we I got my French toast and everyone else at our table got their food. It felt like 10-15 min wait on my food after everyone at the table got theirs. There was also an issue with our order because we were waiting on a side, but then I guess it was never added to our order per our server. We sat in the front corner and you can see the whole cook area, this also means if ventilation isn't on point, your clothes will soak in that aroma, like my jacket did. Food itself was good, nothing bad about what we received, but the wait time on food was way too long. I was leaning a 3.5 star which would make it a 4 star review, but the hiccup with the order along with the wait time just killed my experience. Not going to lie, I went to Filiberto's afterwards because I was still hungry after eating my stuff French toast and half of my girlfriend bagel.

This morning, before heading home to Las Cruces, we ate breakfast at the Burrow Cafe. We both had…read morecrepes, one with ham and Swiss and one with ham and cheddar. They were very good. Each came with a small arugula salad. Nice interior and the service was excellent.

Before visiting, I called with a question about the restaurant's name change. The person who…read moreanswered was incredibly helpful and patiently explained that only the name had changed, which I appreciated. For our meal, we ordered two Chicken & Waffles plates, a Blue Corn Lavender Waffle, and a kids' plate. The Chicken & Waffles were the highlight of the meal, offering a satisfying balance of sweet and savory flavors. The Blue Corn Lavender Waffle was a unique touch and a fun way to try something distinctly New Mexican. Neither my wife nor I cared for the drip coffee, so we asked a staff member if we could swap it out for double espressos. They were happy to accommodate us, and the espresso was a significant improvement. The service was friendly, and the staff made a positive first impression from the phone call all the way through our visit. For our family, the total came to about $80, which felt a little steep. We ended up eating inside since the patio tables were either occupied or unavailable (due to a sleeping homeless person). The restaurant is housed in a renovated older home, and they've done a nice job making the most of the space. One of my favorite touches was the collection of retro waffle makers displayed along the walls, which added a fun, nostalgic charm to the atmosphere. Overall, it was a pleasant experience, and I'd happily return to explore more of the menu.

I haven't been here since they moved to the new spot and renamed. Guess it's been quite a while…read more(Waffletopia now). Anyway, I was super excited to try their blue corn waffles. I had to pick between savory and sweet, and the menu is huge with lots of options plus build your own! I went for savory and got it with goat cheese and spinach (built my own). It was delightful. The blue corn is just a tinge sweet so was an interesting mix. The waffle is a decent size but is super filling and dense. I'll have to try some sweet waffles or some different waffle bases next time! That said there are lots of gluten free options as well, so if that's for you, then don't hesitate to come check it out you won't be disappointed. There is indoor and outdoor seating, though in general the place is small-ish and can get crowded during busy times. Parking is also a bit of an adventure, but so is anywhere in that area. The staff is super friendly as well. All in all a great experience and I will be back. I can't believe it took me so long to get here in the first place!

I went for breakfast and was seated immediately. Very comfortable decor. Menu offered lots of breakfast choices and I opted for steak and eggs. The steak was cooked, medium rare as I had requested, and was tender and a good portion size. The potatoes were crispy with a nice soft creamy interior. Eggs were scrambled and were a little bit firm, but they were still good. I had a nice glass of orange juice. Prices are excellent. I consider this a good find. I enjoy going out for breakfast and there aren't that many places open early for breakfast in the Albuquerque area so this one goes onto my. " I'll be back." list.

First off, this was my second time visiting The Daily Grind, since my first time was amazing I…read morewanted to share it with a friend. This visit left much to be desired, why? Well, the food was once again AMAZING, but our server was horrible!! He spent the whole time he was supposed to be waiting on tables on his phone texting and ignoring the patrons. We did manage to get his attention ONCE to request a change in my drink, but we never received a refill. When he brought the check it took forever to get his attention to pay the bill and when he brought it back he rudely threw it on the table and walked away. His lack of service was appalling after my first visit. Will I go back to The Daily Grind, yes. Yet I will not permit him to wait on my table again. Now, let me tell you what we had for lunch which was so good! My friend had their Mushroom and Swiss Burger with green chile added with a side of fries. The burger was cooked to a medium, as requested, and was juicy. The fries were cooked nice and crispy. My friend said he would order it again. I had the light lunch, 1/2 a curry chicken salad sandwich with 1/2 an Asian salad. My goodness, both were tasty!!

The place was well decorated, clean, and had a wide array of baked goods that looked delicious. There was a large dining area with soft jazz music playing, reminiscent of a bagel shop in NYC. Prompted by one of the other Yelp reviews, I ordered the breakfast sandwich (choice of bagel, eggs, cheese, and meat). I opted for turkey sausage on a red chile bagel. I also ordered an iced Americano since they didn't offer cold brew. The Americano was refreshingly strong and very tasty. The espresso didn't taste burnt or like the machine hadn't been cleaned in a while (you can tell). Sadly, the breakfast sandwich was underwhelming. There was a large quantity of eggs and not enough cheese, and the flavor of the red chile was overpowered by everything else. Next time, I'd like to try a toasted bagel with a cream cheese that accentuates the flavor of the bagel.
