This place was recommended to us by a local foodie in New Mexico. It's an old establishment Their food is decent. The wait time from ordering until the food comes out could be improved, but it's not too bad considering how crowded they are. The only 5/5 dish is the chips and salsa, which ironically is complimentary.

Best food I have had in ABQ so far. We came back to eat just Sopapillas. We are vegetarian and asked for Stuffed Sopapillas with Calabasitas, side of calabasitas and guacamole. It came with 2 sopapillas on the side too. We don't get sopapillas in California, so we tried them at a couple of restuarants here and Sadies has so the best ones we had. Their chips, Salsa, hot and green sauces were v flavorful. Their service was v good. The food came out pretty fast. I think this places has been underrated.

I have visited Sadie's a couple of times, and overall, I would say I was satisfied with my experience. The waitstaff, including the waitress and busser, were consistently attentive to our needs. They ensured our drinks were always full, the quality of the food met our expectations, and that we were generally satisfied throughout our meal.However, I did notice that the host at the front could benefit from more customer service training, as their demeanor came off as somewhat rude and impolite. This aspect could definitely use improvement to enhance the overall welcoming atmosphere of the restaurant.On a positive note, the food was excellent served at the perfect temperature with a delightful blend of spiciness, texture, and taste. The portion sizes were generous, exceeding my expectations, and I even had leftovers to take home.One downside was the chairs, which I found to have poor back support. While they may not be designed for long stays, a bit more comfort would be appreciated. Additionally, the restrooms were narrow, and there was only one large handicap-accessible restroom available for a restaurant of this size, which could be inconvenient for some guests.In summary, while there are areas for improvement, particularly in customer service and seating comfort, the quality of the food and attentive service made my visits to Sadie's enjoyable overall.

The place with Mexican decor was packed. I enjoyed my margarita. The waiter was good. I ordered the small nachos. It was more than I could eat in three sittings. However, regardless of what I order, the food always looks like it is thrown and piled high on the plate. If you have no worries about your cholesterol or weight, this is the place for you. Definitely not for those who want to manage their food intake. The nachos also had burn marks on it. Why do folks love this place?

I came for lunch and just ordered the taco salad which wasn't anything special. It was still good. The service was fantastic and the salsa was definitely spicy.

This place was recommended by locals. I wanted to try something with green chile and it was breakfast time. Enter: Huevos Rancheros! I added bacon and it came (delivery) super fresh and crispy, almost like it was deep fried. I got sopapillas w honey, extra tortillas, and salsa w fresh chips. I added a side of avocado and am pretty sure I was given 1/2 if not a whole fresh avocado neatly sliced. Everything was packaged with care. As soon as I tried the salsa, it was spicy and fresh and I had to breathe w my mouth open..i knew then this place was YUMMY. I was at a dr office and told the staff who referred me here: terrific rec!

I really want to like this place more. My husband would likely pick it every time we want New Mexican food. I love the margaritas, probably my favorite thing. But I don't love the chile sauces, which is smothering if not ordered on the side. And I don't care for papas that usually accompany. Last time I ordered the taco salad with beef, which will probably be a go-to when I concede to my DH. Most dishes are huge!

I was pretty excited to come to Sadie's. This was my first time in Albuquerque and first dining experience at a New Mexican restaurant.I came here with a group of 20 for dinner on a Tuesday. The food was ok. Thank you to my fellow Yelpers for recommending the shredded beef brisket dinner. Because of that, I enjoyed my food moreso than my fellow coworkers. The shredded beef brisket with green chile was probably the best thing on the menu. Having a little tolerance to spicey foods, I was concerned when I saw "chile" on the menu. But as I found out, the green chile was more flavor than burn my tastebuds heat. I enjoyed it thoroughly. I got a healthy portion of brisket that could be split into two meals. The brisket was tender and the green chile added flavor that the rest of my meal lacked.I'm used to beans and rice with my entree, not potatoes. My coworker asked for rice instead of potatoes and was told that rice is not on the menu. Not a huge deal breaker for me. Maybe it's an Albuquerque thing so... when in New Mexico. Just a heads up to Cali diners.Let's talk about the beans. I want to say they were al dente. I'm used to soft beans. These still had a little crunch to them. The cheese, although smothered on top of my beans, was a basic yellow cheese with no flavor. The potatoes were meh. They tasted like frozen potatoes that were slighted fried. Could have passed on those too.The service was disappointing. Our coworker who recommended Sadie's said the restaurant didn't allow her to make reservations for our large party. We waited over 45 minutes for our waitress to take our order. By the time our food came to our table, we were there for an hour and a half. I don't recommend coming here if you have a large party.What I did like is we each got our own bills which made paying easy. No battle of the 20s or cards.

We went in with a rather large group on a Friday night. Our wait was about 30 minutes, but well worth it. The chips and salsa are quite delicious and have a good spice level. I had a skinny margarita and the two taco plate with chicken. Everything on the plate was fantastic. Don't skip the sopapillas for a wonderful sweet treat at the end of your meal.
