The server and service is excellent. Was not expecting "Midwest nice " here.
I asked how spicy the chiles were and the server gave me a sample of chips to try. She also gave me some soup since I didn't want a certain side . I was given a free dessert.
The fry bread was yummy. It is simple, just a
Delicious margaritas and enchiladas. We went at lunchtime on a weekday and it was a bit busy. The dining room is pretty small but otherwise everything was great! Friendly staff and I got free flan for my birthday.
DELICIOUS AND TASTY MEXICAN FOOD!!! This restaurant sure does raise the bar for Mexican food. My green chile burger was the best Mexican burger I’ve ever had, and the green chicken enchiladas are a masterful combination of flavors and textures that are sure to make your eyes pop and your taste buds
Great place. The service was great. The pork taco and ribeye taco was tasty. and the rice is the best Mexican rice I ever had
What a treat! Went here because of the great reviews. It was fabulous. We shared a huge brisket quesadilla. It was perfect! We ordered the queso bowl it was so creamy and delicious! I will definitely be eating here again when we come through. Only negative is the Pepsi products.
Was on a cross country drive and stopped here because I saw it had phenomenal reviews and I was quite blown away! I’m not certain as to the true “Mexican Authenticity” of the dishes they serve as I am quite clearly a white boy. But besides that… The combination plate was absolutely incredible. It ha
I got the brisket burrito and it was delicious. The brisket wasn’t too salty but very flavorful. The salsa I went half red half green and definitely recommend the red, the green was extremely spicy.
The horchata was out of Mexico good, not genuine but good.
The beans and fideo were also good!
Visiting Albuquerque and randomly found this place on google. Its delicious! The service is amazing and the portions are massive. I would strongly recommend. Good margaritas too!
This is one of the best Mexican restaurants I've eaten at. It started with just chips and salsa and I tell you that this was the absolute best chips and salsa i remember having in a very long time. The chips were perfectly salted and fried. The green salsa was a little spicy but I didn't care and st
A fun and packed place full of helpful weight, people and food that's delivered quickly. Recently priced and quite tasty. As you can see from the pictures we ordered quite a bit and we were happy with everything. When they say spicy. It's pretty spicy so adjust if you're not from this part of the wo
Yummy New Mexican food! In photos: chips and salsa, Mexican combo, enchiladas (New Mexican style, flat kind), taco plate, burrito with green chile. FYI the green chile is on the spicier side for anyone not used to it. We also had sopapillas after dinner. Refried beans were a little dry for my taste.
Amazing food! Try anything with the brisket and the green chili stew is a must try. Staff is super friendly and attentive.
I haven’t had much in the way of New Mexican food, but had heard good things about Cocina Azul, so I stopped in this evening around 6 pm for dinner. First thing I noticed about the restaurant was it’s simple decor, and that it was bustling. There was a steady flow of people going in and out of the
Another winner, Cocina Azul, in Albuquerque! The server said anything with the brisket is awesome and they aren’t wrong!! The brisket is seasoned perfectly, with a hint of citrus. The rice and calabasitas are buttery and flavorful. The corn tortillas are soft and pliable, they appear homemade. The r
Best New Mexican food around! A Native Mexican’s 💯%‼️ Stamp of approval! Best Quality food, & service! Ask for Sopapillas & enjoy w/Honey! You’re Welcome!
An authentic southwest experience. Come for the green chili and stay for the sides. You can opt for rice and beans but don't overlook the posole and fideos. Quality service and delicious eats.
Non food related: the bathrooms are super clean and kid friendly. Parking can be tricky at popular times
As we were driving west a few years ago (& approaching Albuquerue), we looked online for some local flavor for our dinner & discovered good reviews for Cocina Azul. It was so wonderful that we always returned on our yearly drives out west & timed our drives so that we would arrive between 2 & 6 so
First I have to say that when inquired about the fried fish tacos and found out they were supposedly hand dipped and haddock I was sold!! It soon turned disappointment. We were given 6 small tacos with 3 tiny medallions worth of fish (nuggets) which did not come hot straight out of the oil; if the
