The service I received from the staff was exceptional, with a big attitude that made me feel welcomed. The food, prepared by Monica, was consistently fantastic, and I have been a loyal patron of this cafe since 1997, always enjoying the delicious offerings they provide.

The worst experience ever.

From the start one of the waitresses had attitude towards us for no reason. The food was cold probably because of the service IDK. Now I remember why I do not eat at this place. Will not go back and will NOT RECOMMEND and when we were leaving she asks if we had our check and we said no and then she states that the other waitress gave it to us and when we said that she didn't she rolled her eyes and said ugh waving her hands.

Monica's is the BEST New Mexican food in Albuquerque!! Everything is homemade, including the flour tortillas...which are to die for. Skip the tourist traps and head straight for this unpretentious hidden treasure!
