La Salita Restaurant

Tens all across the board. Found this place on a public forum and it came highly recommended by ABQ Foodies, so we tried it and we are not disappointed. We had the Taco Tuesday plate special . Food was good, hot, tasty, and flavorful. Service was top notch, you pay prior so you're not waiting around for a waitress to bring the check. Atmosphere is surprisingly laid back and dim. Love it. New favorite place.

Honestly since covid this place has been downhill. They changed from a restaurant style to more of a cafe that means seat yourself and more or less serve yourself. You'll have someone bring you out your food but thats the last you'll see of them. Dont expect service but do expect to still have to tip. Food has also gone down in both quality and portion since the rebrand but cost keep increasing. I rarely go here anymore but decided to get the taco special on Tuesday. I expected a long wait and did get there eight minutes early from the low end of expected time frame. The person running the counter came to ask if I was picking up after a minute of just staring at me. When saying the name on the order I was met with a rude response. "Well as you can see your order isnt here so that means its not ready so you'll have to wait." Then she went back to standing around till another customer needed to be given a drink or chips when ordering. Five minutes into waiting a server asked if I was waiting on an order and said they will go back and check. I saw her running out order immediately after walking in the back and I didnt see her again. It took another eight to ten minutes before another server came to check on me and he was great, the good experience in all this. He went back and came to let me know that my order was fifth in line to be made but two thats ahead of me were big orders so it should be around ten minutes. Checking the food there wasn't any honey for the sopapillas and unfortunately the only person not busy I could ask was the first one with the rude comment. I should have expected what she would say though yet still i asked. Can I have some honey please? "Huh what?" Some packets of honey. "Well did you even order sopapills?" Yes I did. "Well then they should be in there." No i didnt see them either with the sopapills or in the main bag. "Well they are probably under the sopapills and you just cant see them." Well they aren't can I just please have some? "Well fine I'll go get some." Just no I'll rather do without then. Checking the food i asked one order to not have garnish and sauce on the side. Lettuce was still in the taco and had to be picked out which wouldn't be so bad if they didnt drip the red Chile sauce down the side of the container and now its on the bottom of the tacos. I physically cant eat it with the medical problems to my stomach. The other orders asked for the sauce on the side too as they can pour it on themselves to control how much they have. Instead of have it actually on the side they just put the container in the beans and closed the box. Everything look like a mess and its just a terrible experience as well as the last experience I'll have with them.

Best taco Tuesday deal in town! $5.75 for 2 tacos with 2 sides! Add a sopapilla for 50 cents. Free chips and salsa. Food is great, service is fast and friendly. Chile renellos are also delicious. Lots of Vegan options as well. Definitely recommend.

The BOG burrito that’s on Tuesdays and Thursdays is one of my all time favorites!! The cheese is so creamy and the meat is sooo good. I love the green chile >> Also the people are so friendly here!
