I've never lived in Albuquerque but I visit often and I ALWAYS make sure to go to my favorite restaurant, Los Cuates. Los Cuates has been an Albuquerque native for many years and there's nothing in town that's comparable. Traditional New Mexican-style food - 'hotter than hell' hot sauce and the best Chile Reyenos in town! Be sure to try the homemade sopapillos! I can't emphasize enough how good the food is at Los Cuates. The next time you're in Albuquerque - be sure to check it out!
Pros: Inexpensive, Large food portions, Authentic
Cons: Crowded
