Padilla's Mexican Kitchen 1510 Girard Boulevard Northeast, Albuquerque, NM 87106

"I've been eating at padillas for decades and we'll have to say that the food has been very consistent over that time and it's always delicious. If you're not a fan of onions then my suggestion is your tell your waiter or waitress to hold the onions because they're very liberal and the amount of onion they put on your food, I don't like onion. The tamales are very good probably the best in Albuquerque and the blue corn chicken enchiladas are also just very delicious."

"Super delicious, authentic new Mexican food. The blue corn enchiladas are fantastic. Service was fast and friendly even though the restaurant was packed. Cash only here."

"No frills, comfort New Mexican food. Tastes like your grandma cooked it, works well for a daily meal. We like both the Chili Relleno Plate and Blue Enchiladas plate. I'm not sure if adding beef was worth it for the enchiladas, I think the cheese enchilada would probably have had a bit more flavor. The favors here are simple but robust, and the price is right. The portions are good, you won't leave hungry. We appreciated that the fried options didn't taste overly oily or fatty, this may even be a healthy as far as restos go. I will stop buy again next time I visit."

"Great red chile, nice slow burn. Sides were delicious also. Service was just right, not overly intrusive, but there when my tea ran low."

"Great food. Just don't come with a big appetite. Portions are extremely small compared to Mexican restaurants I'm familiar with in. Most reviews indicate chips and salsa as not good...correct, but that is not one goes to a restaurant for. Sopapillas are excellent. Food is great...A+. Can't be stingy about food if you want a 5 star."
