    Divine intervention. Blue cheese onions balsamic tomato romaine
    Cyn P.

    I've only been here once and look forward to coming back and trying a few other burgers. I got the divine intervention. Love the name! The burger was cooked to order. Service was good. So this is a burger that has blue cheese on it and a balsamic reduction. They were a little bit surprised when I asked for some mustard on the side. So overall really good burger can't complain. However, I wish there had been a bit more blue cheese. The bun was toasted but somewhat crapped I asked her utensils in order to cut the burger where the bun was cracked so that I could actually eat it. Still this doesn't take away from the experience. I was quite happy with every bite and every morsel.

    Came here because of many good reviews. My perfectly crafted Green Chile Cheeseburger was...well..perfect, not much more to stay other than very satisfying. Paired with ANY beer from the downstairs tap room of Santa Fe Brewing, it was a good day!

    Legend says if you interrupt her mopping, you will be cursed with salty food.

    Green Jeans was not bumping on a Thursday night and there were maybe 2 other sets of people ordering food when we came in. We wanted to try BBQ but couldn't find the vendor so our next best choice was Rustic On the Green. I should have convinced my mans to get pizza because this experience was just ok, if not a little less than ok. I should actually give it 2 starts because it definitely could have been better but there were some things that were good. First, the person who was taking orders was mopping and didn't wash her hands between tasks, including touching food items, which is beyond gross. Not only that but she and the person cooking were fighting over days off which felt very uncomfortable. After about 2 min she finally comes to take out order (she knew we were there cause she looked directly at us and rolled her eyes) but she is not happy, very hostile. I just take this as she's mad at him and not me so I order and take my pager. We decided to sit upstairs but I came back down before the pager went off. I hate to say that I was relieved, but I can't think of another word, that she was super rude to the people I saw ordering next as well. In fact, this time she refused to turn while mopping and the people had to call out to her and this made her even angrier and she angry mopped for about 30 seconds before putting it down and taking their order. The person ordering changed their order about halfway through and I thought she might punch the lady. YIKES!!! When my order came up, she never punched in the pager so it sat there for a while, because NO ONE would come to the counter. I knew it was my order but what if it wasn't. Finally, I start to get mad and she comes over and punches in the pager. I'm like, hi, it's me, you're the problem, it's you. LOL!!! She also forgot to give me my water and when I asked, even the guy cooking is angry at me now and screams from behind the table, "WHAT DO YOU WANT NOW???" Oh, just the water I paid for, thanks. Mind you, I haven't said any words to them, except to order and to ask about my water. I know everyone has bad days but come on!!! Add insult to injury, both the patty melts and loaded tater tots were inedible salty. At first, I thought it was mine but I noticed my burger loving mans hardly ate his. When I asked, he said it was so salty it hurt his mouth. So, we both didn't finish our burgers and did not eat the tots. Sadness, because tots are one of my fave foods. Luckily, the chili and the queso on top of the tots was edible and actually really good. I wish I just got a bowl of those items. Absolutely, never eating here again. Never. Ever. No. Nope. No way. But I can't say some things weren't really delicious so 2.5 stars and hope you have better luck than I did.

    Yummy burgers & spiciness at its finest. Seeing the great Yelp reviews for Rustic Burger, we made a beeline soon as we left the airport The setup is laid back and inventive....looks like a bunch of shipping containers repurposed for use There is a food court with different offerings but Mr & I knew we wanted the burgers Claimed to be serving Beyond Meat, we chose the Sacred & Day of the Dead. The patties were indeed veggie but Im not sure if I could say they were Beyond as this brand has a distinctive texture & flavor & we didn't get that from these burgers. Still tasty but can't vouch they were Beyond Nonetheless, we asked them to sub the veggie patties on these choices & ''twas no big deal. Both were really, really good. We both liked the Sacred's mustard domination with a chile kick and also liked the wood fired / smoky flavor of the super spicy Day of the Dead Paired these delights with some of their green chile queso & that had a sneaky burn.....in a good way You think you're just eating yummy queso t then slowly but surely the burn sets in & wow! This is a place that is return-worthy! Get your veggie burger on!

    Burger with fries
    Carol G.

    Pleased with the food here, delish! And reasonably priced. Have tried the Italian fries, made with truffle oil and they are delicious if you like mushroom flavor. The burger was perfectly done with caramelized onions, bacon and French dressing on marble rye. In a week, I've already been there twice so that says something.

    Sweet potato fries, day of the dead burger, the sacred & Italian truffle fries.
    Allison T.

    Dude taking our order was really cool and the food came out fairly fast. I'd give the day of the dead burger a 8/10. Thing is HOT, my god. Sweet potato fries were great but the ranch tasted like craft ranch (as in not made in their kitchen). My husband got the sacred and gave it a 4/10 , as well as the truffle fries. We both agree that the buns they use on their burgers are really good. Three dollars for iced tea that was not to great. I think it would taste better if they used filtered water. I'd still come back to try something different.

    After a long plane ride to visit family in New Mexico, we were starving and Yelp lead me here. This restaurant is located in a small food court with a few other places. It looks like it would be average food and doesn't really stand out however once I got and tried the burger I knew why this place had such a high rating on Yelp. I ordered the Rustic burger and added bacon. The burger was large and juicy and had the best flavor. The bacon and the caramelized onions were such good toppings. The rustic sauce that comes with this burger is like the Big Mac sauce from McDonald's. The fries were the thin fries and they were hot and fresh when I got my food. Overall the food was so delicious and I love a good burger. The service could slightly improve, we waited a few minutes before we were acknowledged but we came during a slow period so that could explain that but the burger was so worth the wait!!

    The King Philly, Green Chile Burger, and Italian fries were bomb! The outdoor seating area was great as well.

    We got some burgers and fries from Rustic on the green at green jeans farmery. All of it was absolutely delicious and the spicy burger was extremely spicy (and delicious) too- did not disappoint!!!!!!!

    The Sacred Burger
    Elyse F.

    Green chilies smothered in queso as a burger topping??? Yes please. The Sacred burger is actually what brought us to Rustic on the Green. Driving through Albuquerque around lunchtime, I knew I wanted to stop for one of the city's famous green chili cheeseburgers. A quick search brought me to Rustic on the Green. We ordered 3 Sacred burgers, 1 children's burger, and 2 orders of fries. The portions are huge. We left stuffed, with food to spare. Burgers are smothered in the green chili queso. Queso had a nice kick to it. Produce was fresh. The meat itself was cooked to well done. There was plenty of queso and mustard to help moisten the bites, but the meat itself was dry. Bun was fresh, and of quality. Flavor wise, a delicious burger. Not being local, this place was confusing to find. It is located in the food hall of a in a mall that is made up of repurposed shipping containers. (Very cool concept.) Look for the Green Jeans Farmery. Limited seating downstairs. Additional seating upstairs. Seating is shared by all businesses.

He walked away as I approached the counter. I was confused as I wasn't aware I had to order on the tablet on the counter. When I began using the tablet I was in search of the new mushroom burger they sent me an email yesterday about. Of course you know it's what I wanted to try. Sadly it wasn't on the menu on the tablet. When I called the employee for help I basically got the vibe he didn't want to be there and he was hesitant to approach. When he did come to the counter I asked about the burger even showed him the email to get told it's not out yet and it was coming soon. I found myself wondering why I even got the email if this was true. Needless to say the food came out really fast. I thought well that's good at least. The presentation was better than the experience. The cheese on the queso fries was pretty skimpy. There were way more fries than cheese which was disappointing. The burger I wasn't a fan of either. It needed more cheese and the stackers sauce tasted strange like it a chipotle sauce it wasn't the same as I recalled. I'm sad to say this is the second location I've had a bad experience with. It's really disappointing because I really loved this place. I guess I'll have to stick to the central food hall because so far that's the only location that hasn't disappointed me like this yet.

I was immediately impressed by the staff. you couldn't ask for better care and warmth. we participated in any activities that were offered and made new and lasting friendships along the way. thru those years there were difficult times. I guess the most difficult was the pandemic when we were limited to movement within the building but you would be amazed attn lengths the staff went to to keep us happy. delicious meals were delivered to our door ( we ordered from our menu's ). Games were played at each door if you wanted to participate and there were fun prizes. The weekly wine socials were brought to your door. Meanwhile, all the necessary health precautions were taken. The apartments were thoroughly cleaned weekly. When necessary, immunization clinics were brought to each resident and if you wanted to participate, they made it easy. Eventually that passed and life got back to normal but it's hard not to recognize the professional handling of that difficult time. The building was renovated and mad lovely for us. If anything needed to be updated, it was life moved along smoothly and I must admit, to my surprise. There were many staff changes but amazingly, the staff remained warm and caring. Deep down, I can forget that they are dealing with many different personalities and sometimes elderly people can be a tad grumpy. The loving staff simply overlooks the bad days. Food is always an issue but the menu is large with choices for everyone. If that isn't enough, there's a really great Bistro you don't want to mis. The activities are numerous and year round. Entertainment is provided on a regular basis and outings take place twice a week. All you have to do is signup. I can't close this without mentioning that my husband passed away in 2022. it was a difficult time made easier by the Fairwinds staff and especially the management. Being100% deaf and disabled, my family wanted me to move to assisted living despite my reluctance. Doralei warmly helped me make that decision to move and very graciously helped me find a comfortable apartment. The move was smooth and the golden treatment given by the health and Wellness staff has been perfect so I have to admit that it was the proper move. When I need appointments, the transportation service is wonderful and I can't forget to mention the wonderful drivers. Do you see how fortunate I furl that all those years ago, we made the decision to move here it was the perfect one. You can't go wrong.

    Extremely disappointing experience at Sixty Six Acres…read more We walked in and were seated immediately on the patio. I had read so many positive reviews and was genuinely excited to try this restaurant. Unfortunately, we walked out without ever being served. While we sat there, multiple staff members walked past our table without acknowledging us. No greeting. No water. No "someone will be right with you." Nothing. Then another couple arrived after us and was seated in the same small patio area. They were promptly greeted, given water, and attended to by a waiter who seemed more than happy to serve them. Meanwhile, we were still sitting there trying to figure out whether anyone planned to acknowledge our table. What made the experience even more uncomfortable was looking around and realizing there were no other Black or Brown patrons in the establishment at the time. I cannot definitively say race played a role in how we were treated, but given the stark difference in service between our table and the couple seated after us, I would be dishonest if I said the thought didn't cross my mind. We eventually got up and left. Good food reviews mean very little if certain guests can sit at a table while staff repeatedly walk past them as though they aren't there. Whether this was discrimination, poor training, or simply terrible service, the experience was unacceptable and left us feeling completely unwelcome. We came prepared to spend our money and enjoy dinner. Instead, Sixty Six Acres made it very easy for us to take our business elsewhere.
