We stopped in for brunch with friends. The service was great and the food was fantastic. If I had to complain about something it would be that the portions are too large and the prices too low read more

We decided to try out Weck's while on a road trip to Cali. Weck's is a good choice for a low-key lunch. The portion sizes are great, but the food is really plain to say the least. However, everything was properly cooked and prepared nicely. The service was great. read more

Service was very good, and pretty fast. The menu offers numerous options that probably are better than what I had, and if you're hungry, there is a variety of truly huge breakfasts on the menu. I wasn't very hungry, so I had just a pancake, bacon, and coffee. Coffee was weak. Hard to understand how a just-made pancake could taste stale, but it did, slightly. I'd recommend this place if you like 1950s Hollywood decor (James Dean, Rat Pack, Elvis) and standard fare at decent prices, and you might luck out and get seated right away. (The place was hoppin' on Mother's Day at 9:30 a.m. but we were seated at a table for two in just a few minutes; however, right after us, several other parties of two arrived, so some of them probably waited longer.) read more

Waited so long my coke went flat. Serving staff was friendly and kind, and food was great. Our wait time, however, was a bit on the long side. 50 minutes to the second from sitting down. I'll chalk it up to being understaffed in the kitchen because of the lockdowns, so we will come back when citizens are allowed to be humans again by the tyrant, I mean, governor. read more

I'll admit, it's been some time since I had the pleasure of dining at this establishment, so bear with me, I'm working with a fading memory, here. On the other hand, my recollection of the experience is startlingly detailed. So let me sort of unzip this particular file in my mental hard drive and explore the contents. Let's see here... Opening... Loading... Ah, yes, I can see it now. I walk in the front door with my family, our littlest one isn't with us and-peering at my wife's belly, I see she's not preggo-so yes, this memory indeed goes back some three years. No problem. I'm getting excited. I've heard good word about Weck's and now they've opened this new location so close to the house. And while I love me a New Mexican breakfast, sometimes I do enjoy good ol' bacon and eggs, just plain American fare, and I've heard Weck's is a solid choice in this regard. Yes, I think, I'll do good ol' bacon and eggs today, skip the chile just this once. Walking to our booth my eyes wander the walls, where Hollywood memorabilia adorn every square inch, reminiscent of TGI Friday's but a tad more classy. Oh, look, there's Lobo Louie. There's something from Route 66 right here in Albuquerque. Nice. While I'm not exactly crazy about waxing poetic on James Dean and Marilyn Monroe, I can really appreciate how this place represents the local element. Now we're sitting, I'm looking at an extensive menu and I'm telling my wife I want American... but now I'm thinking about chile. Because I'm an absolute addict. I put the stuff on my cereal. If I could mainline it, I would. And I married an addict, so my wife is thinking the same. The next thing I know I'm ordering The Abney omelet and my wife Huevos Rancheros. Our daughter Aura has pancakes and eggs. The waiter is friendly, efficient, and I can see the manager trotting all over the place checking on diners. Plates arrive. I'm generally satisfied. Not thrilled, but filled by the end. Diced ham and various veggies, some guacamole, cheese, SMOTHERED in green chile that's a bit on the bland side, the thick saucy variety. So I'm good. So is my wife. She says the plate isn't amazing, but it's huge. Aura really likes her pancakes. We settle the bill, which I find reasonable, and head home to spend a weekend afternoon together. Had I been yelping at the time, I'm quite sure I would've given Weck's three stars. A-OK. So there you go, guys. read more

Got papas? I sure did. A huge heaping of hash browns, covered with 2 different types of cheese, carne adovada, 2 fried eggs, and green and red chile. What's not to love? It's definitely worth the money! Service is friendly and quick. read more

Great food and low prices! And tasty. I had French toast turkey sausage and one egg. The portions were huge like I've never seen :). Big eats ... Good stuff and worth the wait on the weekend :). read more

While passing through Albuquerque my boyfriend and I randomly chose Weck's to grab some breakfast! It was my first time at a Weck's and it was definitely a 5 star experience! First and foremost the food was DELICIOUS!! I had the Papas with chicken. Basically it's hash browns covered in cheese, chile sauce and shredded chicken. Amazing. My boyfriend had the breakfast burrito, which was HUGE and equally delicious! The outside of the restaurant isn't much to look at but inside it's sort of a 50's diner feel with Betty Boop and Marilyn Monroe pictures on the wall. No matter the decor inside or out the food is wonderfully delicious! Also the customer service was outstanding! Our waitress, which unfortunately I can't remember her name but she reminded me of Joan Cusack, was so amazing and friendly. She could tell that it was our first time from the questions we asked. She voluntarily offered us a tortilla and both of the chile sauces (red and green) since it was our first time she wanted to make sure that they wouldn't be too spicy. She was very attentive and so friendly! The manger also stopped by twice to make sure we were doing ok and that our meals were correct. For an inexpensive diner they serve up 5 star customer service and absolutely delicious food! When I'm back in NM you better believe I'll be eating breakfast at Weck's! read more

Best brunch stop in Albuquerque hands down, everything was awesome from the food to the service seriously we'll be back.

A really cute diner type place with an overabundance of Betty Boop stuff adorning the walls. Double J advised me, Hubster, Drewbert and Frank that when the menu said a "mountain of hash browns" they weren't kidding. I opted for a bowl which turned out to be a wise decision indeed. This place does not fool around with portion sizes, bringing out platters of hash browns piled high with meat, cheese and green chile not to mention pancakes the size of hubcaps. Some good stuff and really friendly service, just be prepared to not eat for a while before and afterwards. read more

What a friendly breakfast place! Staff and management so pleasant. Made our dining experience a happy one . Very generous portions. A little overkill on the hash browns but that's ok. Red and green chile flavorful and spicy. Loved it! read more

I had the Pappas stuffed with carnita which is bowl of hash browns, carnitas, cheese, scrambled egg, red / green chili sauce and comes with a tortilla (didn't use). It was delicious! By the last few bites, it ended up like a casserole. My husband had the standard bacon/egg/hash/toast breakfast and said the bacon was really good/thick. The waitress (Amy) and the manager (checked in at our table) were both very nice. The restaurant was bright, clean and well decorated, And the restroom (ladies) was clean and well stocked. read more

Hello there! Thought I'd leave review on first visit on the new location, Bell was our server she's not friendly or happy but she got our order correct, and it was yummy n fresh n hot!! Also had wait on our ticket so we can pay but yeah I'll give you 4 stars! read more

Perfect breakfast place where is substantial food and excellent service. The coffee was wonderful and it was filled often. I highly recommend this place for breakfast. read more

Hadn't been to Wecks in a long time. The food is as good as always. Had rather interesting experience the guy who seated me keep asking if I knew of a party he could be invited too. Took me a back that would happen when I go somewhere to eat read more

I have never been to this wecks location. The other wecks location that I have visited was the location on north coors before montano. When I was at that location I did not feel very welcome I actually felt out of place. At this location I feel really great having my meal here. I tried their red chili and I highly recommend! read more

Weck's - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

Breakfast is super delicious. Green or red chile with all meals! Atmosphere is fun and clean. The service is prompt and friendly. I chose the eggs benedict on this visit; my sister ordered the huevos ranchers; any my niece ordered the breakfast burrito. Serving sizes are more than enough. read more

Just realized I haven't reviewed Weck's. This place is a breakfast local classic, my favorite topping is Christmas on everything. My recs are the Papas, plate if you're starving or bowl if you are not. Specifically, carne adovada because no other state preps this better. You can't go wrong with a breakfast burrito either, smothered of course. You can't go wrong with Weck's any day. read more

Found this place with the Monocle that i never used before, SICK! but great food, large portions, attentive staff and you can buy chile in a jar if ur an out of towner like I was! read more

While taking a day trip visiting the land of enchantment , My wife and i wanted to try something diffrent and something you probably would only find in Albuquerque. Weck's showed up on on the list as she looked at photos and reviews of places that was in the area so we decided to give it a try. First of all the name and walking in i personally was skeptical at first but kept a open mind then as we where seated and looked at the menu as other tables next to us received they're food and i saw the enormous portion sizes I knew i was in the right place. Our server was very helpful and patient with us, and broke down the menu and items that we would each be happiest with, I ordered the Papas plate w/ chicken as my meat option and instead of the tortilla it comes with i got a pancake instead, i wanted something that would hold me over until i flew back home this meal was going to have to be both breakfast and lunch for us. Our food came out quickly and looked great. Everything was cooked well not over or under seasoned, the papas was really good i would definitely get this again the pancake was good too but it began kicking my butt as i tried finishing it all, and as a person who believes that quality and quantity go hand in hand let me just say.."YOU WILL NOT WALK OUT OF THIS PLACE FEELING HUNGRY". I cant remember the last time I've been defeated by food but this definitely was one of those times. I didnt even want to look at food after rolling out of this place. Full all day. read more

Doesn't get better than this!...if what you are looking for is a great breakfast with a New Mexico twist in huge portions, this is the place!...others have complained about the hash browns not being crisp so I just ordered them crisp and they were perfect. ..if you are one of those dainty eaters, you'll have to share a plate with two or three other people. ..my hubby had the Pig and he was one and ate the whole thing. ..and how about this, they brought us sturdy plastic travel cups for our water! Attentive staff and clean and a fair price. ..win win win and great food. ..WIN! read more

We've stayed a couple of times at the hotel behind this fine establishment.we had to stay an extra night due to a snow storm and I'm glad we did . The service was excellent. Deb had the green chili soup and salad. I had the chicken enchilada plate , which came with beans, salad,potatoes,cheese, guacamole, and sour cream. The kicker was the hot green chili sauce! The food was excellent! Check it out ! You won't be disappointed. read more

Excellent place for Mexican cuisine! My wife and I came here for breakfast and enjoyed it thoroughly. It is not in the greatest part of town but we had no problem and would come back when passing through Albuquerque read more

Weck's - Looks delicious I hope it's as good as it looks - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

A great place for breakfast or lunch. Food is always flavorful, and the portions are huge. My favorite is the carne pappa, yum! Through the years, everything I've tried has been good. The only item I don't like are their pancakes. They're huge, but taste bland. Staff is friendly and efficient. It's rare we get bad service. Pre-pandemic, there was always aw wait for a table. read more

I was very impressed with the breakfast. Friendly staff and big portions. Fabulous! If I'm ever in Albuquerque I will surely visit this place again. read more

Great place if you're into hash browns! I typically eat a fairly large portion but the 10 dollar original was more than I could finish. A good American diner with generous serving sizes and good food - would recommend. read more

Portion control is obviously not in the dictionary in New Mexico, but don't let that stop you from dining at Weck's; just be prepared to carry one or eight take-out boxes back home. The incredible swath of people dining in this restaurant at any given time stands a testament for how well they have maintained their image for good food. Despite the large volume, the restaurant's service seems to stand strong, maintaining a clean establishment with waitstaff that somehow manage to always keep the smiles on their faces. Some might say that the 50s diner style is kitschy or even tacky, but all of that can be overlooked when the food gives you something more to remember. The only regret I might have from this place is that we couldn't try everything. Between hash browns, omelettes, breakfast burritos, and more, there's always something new to try here. One of my biggest pet peeves with restaurants is when they use pre-made or frozen ingredients. Freshly made food always takes more work than buying it pre-made, but it makes a better tasting dish in the end, and this is something the chefs at Weck's obviously know. For as good as this food is, I find it hard to believe that the IHOP down the street manages to stay in business. My recommendation is to try it once, because, after that, you'll probably have enough leftovers to last you a lifetime. read more

We stopped here for breakfast. It is a very cute diner type. The decor is Hollywood etc. Quiet extensive decor. Red and black color of the day. The staff was very friendly and very attentive. I ordered breakfast sausage with gravy and a poached egg. The sausage was a little spicy for me but tasty. The egg poached perfectly and the gravy very flavorful. The omelet was excellent. They plates are big on just the regular order. You can order the papa size which must be huge. Walk here if you are hungry. They only serve breakfast and lunch. A great buy for the money read more

Huge portions. Great food and great service. First restaurant in the American Southwest trip and they set a high bar. Great Southwest breakfast options and good kids options. read more

Okay meal of egg omelette. Eggs overcooked and hard, not fluffy at all. Very, very nice staff. Good coffee.

This wasn't my favorite breakfast. First, wife's was pretty good so that's gonna even out my negative but not elevate the total review to very good. My Pork Carnitas Papas, the pork wasn't up to the level I expected. It had a slimy consistency and an off taste. Doesn't compare to other pork carnitas around town. I won't knock off for the heavy, saturated, hash browns underneath the pork and egg as that was expected. On the plus side, several other b'fast options looked good. Wife's waffle was spot on. I look forward to coming back and giving Wecks a better rating. read more

Average breakfast place. Very generic menu. Weekend wait time could be more than 1 hour.

Jocelyn provides amazing service here! She makes your experience that much better and you're never in need of anything. Ask for her!

Oh my fav Weck's! Love the staff! At the crack of dawn, when they first open, the staff manages to be much more awake and friendly than I am, they serve me fresh hot food exactly how I ask for it and refill my coffee over and over. The extra niceties are always offered and I always leave a great tip to say thanks for making my breakfast a wonderful start to my day! The decor is fun, I like the layout of the place. Portions always need a to-go box and try the Eggs Benedict! Best Weck's in town. Beats other breakfast joints hands down. read more

Since I work downtown and there aren't many eateries with parking down here, I frequent Weck's at least once every couple of months. Today, it was a grueling day to get ANY type of courtesy from any of the employees! Makes you wonder why everybody is hating their job and why management is allowing it to ooze out on the customer. I ordered hash and eggs/medium on a separate plate. My so-called corn beef hash was mixed with hash brown CRUMBS that looked like left overs. And served in bowl that included about an 1/2 inch of grease on the bottom!! When I questioned the presentation in a bowl and not a plate, the waitress felt obligated to make the pointless comment to me that she has been working there for 4 years and never seen it served any other way. Well I have seen it served differently and at Weck's NO LESS. Then she has the audacity to dismissively flick her hand at me! Okay, there went your tip!! At that point I suppose she took it upon herself to longer wait our table anyway! She never came back to refill coffee even though she would walk over to the table next to us to refill their coffee. So be it, I get it! You are having a self-destructive day! However, not a smile in the place...unless they were talking to another employee! And event then, there was very little of that. It seemed the unfortunate lot of us customers were causing them grief and inflicting some imaginary pain on their beings. THEN, the cashier also wants to throw shade!!! WHAT!! I've been tolerant and accepting of slow service at Weck's for more than 6 years. However, this just topped it for me. The manager was in no way apologetic, although she did warm my son's plate and refilled his coffee WHEN he asked. She also agreed to let the cook know that there was a good ounce of grease sitting in the bottom of the BOWL of hash I was served, WHEN I asked her to bring it to the cook's attention. Weck's is ALWAYS slow on the prep of your order ANYWAY and 1 out of every 3 times, your food is cold. Why they don't understand the concept that most people visiting their "downtown" establishment at lunchtime have ONE HOUR for lunch is besides reason! I am understanding why their parking lot was quite empty today, may be something that is progressing into closing their doors due to insolent attitudes and slow cooks! read more
