Mexican restaurants in Albuquerque

We distinguish between New Mexican food (see my New Mexico style restaurant page for those) and the food of Old Mexico.

• El Norteño***, south side of Zuni above Washington. Mexico City style, not New Mexico. Don't miss the chicken molé, a highly unusual sauce featuring chocolate, nuts and spices. Tastes much better than it sounds!
• Losbetos***, a fast, cheap, authentic, and 24-hour operation on the southeast corner of San Mateo and Lomas. No hay coffee, though. We think they may have overreacted to the lady who sued McDonald's after she spilled scalding coffee on herself.
