::Wow, just wow! This is a must try breakfast spot in Albuquerque. It had been on my radar for a couple of years, but living a couple hours away, I wasn't able to make it in until recently. It definitely did not disappoint. The staff were all very friendly, helpful and hard working. It's evident that the food is made from scratch with fresh ingredients, many of which are locally sourced. That being said, ingredients do run out as the morning goes on, so go early if you want the full menu available. We enjoyed some super fluffy buttermilk pancakes and delicious French toast, both topped with blueberries and bananas. The real star of the show here was the giant smoothened breakfast burrito. This almost was the best breakfast burrito I've ever had! It was generously filled with perfectly home-fried potatoes, scrambled eggs, cheddar, chopped green chile, smothered in red chile and queso fresco. The red chile was very well done and the queso fresco was a nice and unique touch. I got mine with sausage, this is where my only recommendation for improvement comes in. The sausage used in this burrito was maple flavored. This really threw off the taste of the entire dish. It wasn't terrible but I would not order it again. I stayed curious if this was intentional or a mistake. I also stayed wondering if the bacon was also of the maple variety. If this was intentional, I respect the creativity but maybe warn your customers before ordering that it's maple, or have an option for non sweetened meat for the burrito. Other than that, this place is great and I will be back the next time I'm needing breakfast while in Albuquerque!

::My first time here, but definitely not my last. This little gem of a place is inviting, has ample parking, as well as a friendly staff. Everyone, including the customers are quick to share recommendations on dishes to try, but all agree, every item available is amazing. I studied the online menu for days before my breakfast date with a friend, thankfully we ordered and shared our plates. I danced in place, smiling from ear to ear, completely immersed in the experience. Good food is tasty, great food hits every note and is an experience all its own. I had the Eggs Benny and a small side of Lemon Cornmeal Pancakes, both which I highly recommend!

::Busy place with great ambiance. Long line to order and fairly lengthy wait to receive our food. WORTH IT!!! Every bite was DELICIOUS! The pork in the chilaquiles was tender and yummy. The gf waffles were really tasty, not needing syrup. The fries were crisp, but not dry. And the homemade biscuits; wow!!!

::Our last day in Albuquerque and we were looking for brunch before a long flight home. We ordered Eggs Benny (pic), Grilled Cheese with Bacon and pancakes. The place is not huge and it’s the type of place where you order at the counter and they bring it to you. All the staff are very nice and efficient. The food was the best I’ve ever had. The eggs Benny had just enough spice to make the dish tasty but not burn off your tastebuds. The pancakes were thick and tasty. The grilled cheese had more than just cheese which elevated the traditional sandwich to something fantastic. Wish we could visit more often but will certainly be back if we are in Albuquerque again!
