Los Cuates

A new Mexico MUST VISIT location. I have never had anything like thier red chili salsa..kinda sweet but HOT and totally addictive! I love it . The bartenders were beautiful and kind, as was the door check/seating staff. I don't live in the southwest any more but , if I find myself in new Mexico for business ,I try to always find the time to grab a shredded beef stuffed sopapilla and some chips and salsa. I cant get sopapillas at all where I live. Look at the size of that thing! A meal on its own even a la carte. This establishment has been around for ages,and once you try it , it's a craving you cant forget. The bar does specials on things during happy hour so keep an eye out for thier special menu when sitting at the bar,the specials will offset whatever you spent on your drink lol.i had

This was the first time I've gone to Los Cuates, the server was friendly, personable, and had great suggestions, I really enjoyed the interaction. Food: I had the big combo plate, which I like to get from a Mexican/ New Mexican restaurant, it gives me a variety to judge. The combo came with a taco, Chile relleno, cheese enchilada, rice, and beans. Everything on this plate was delicious even the rice and beans, which sometimes feels generic bilut these were delicious. The Chile relleno was excellent, it was crunchy on the outside, the Chile had a little bite to it, which gave it great texture and it was full of cheese, so good. The child on the cheese enchilada was a winner, I had Christmas, if you know you know, and each was tasty but not super hot. The taco, if I had one criticism it is

It's a nice restaurant. And the food is ok. The salsa isn't very good. But, with so many good Mexican and new Mexican places in town, it's not really worth it. The atmosphere is typical pseudo-Mexican fair. And the staff service was really good. They're very friendly and attentive.

Gone down hill! Their re fried beans used to be made from scratch- and had cheese blended in them as well. Yesterday, my enchiladas came with beans that were the rehydrated kind out of a bag! Tastless and hated the texture of the out of the bag rehydrated beans-. The enchiladas were good, as was the sopa. Chile is ok at best. They need to bring back their from scratch beans. Tacos were good.

Great happy hour Margarita. Dinner salad was a large potion loaded with extras! I ordered the chile relleno witch was grande! They are hand made from scratch everyday. It did not disappoint. The cheerful bar server Becky was on top of the bar and bar section. I had a gr3at experience.
