" Not quite sure what all the fuss is about. I had the carne asada gordita and it was not bad, but certainly not the best I've had either. The service was adequate, with no real warmth. I felt the place had potential but needs some effort in atmosphere and engagement from its staff. It’s a decent option, but I would likely try somewhere else next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a fantastic meal! I visited on a whim and was pleasantly surprised by how good the food was. The veggie gorditas I had were made fresh and were incredibly satisfying. The staff was friendly and ensured we had everything we needed. I’ll definitely be back for another round soon. Highly recommend the mole gorditas; they are to die for! " (*Curated Review*)

" After strolling through the area and looking for a bite, I happened upon Ricas Gorditas Vale and grabbed a seat. I ordered their pork gorditas that were simply mouthwatering! The meat was tender, and you could taste the spices throughout. The waitress was attentive, checking in on our needs. This place may not be glamorous, but it’s authentic and satisfying! Worth every penny. " (*Curated Review*)

" Stopping by Ricas Gorditas Vale during my trip to Albuquerque was the best decision! I ordered several kinds of gorditas to share with friends, and every single one was delicious. The flavors were rich and authentic, something rare to find outside of Mexico. The service was friendly, but the restaurant was busy and tables might need some rearrangement for comfort. Overall, I had a great experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're craving authentic Mexican food, Ricas Gorditas Vale is the place to go! The gorditas are outstanding, with generous portions and a variety of delicious fillings. The atmosphere is homey, though a little cramped at times, especially during peak hours. Service was usually prompt, but on my last visit, it felt a little rushed. All in all, I will be coming back to try more dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" Having heard so much about this place, I finally decided to pay a visit and the hype was certainly justified! The gorditas I ordered were incredible, each one packed full of fresh ingredients and authentic flavors that reminded me of home. It's not a fancy place, but that's part of its charm. The service was on point - friendly and quick. If you're looking for a true taste of Mexico, come here! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the chicharrón prensado gordita here, and it lived up to the hype! The flavor was spot on, with the right amount of seasoning, and it was generously filled. Though the restaurant itself is quite basic in decor, it feels authentic and homey. The service was excellent, and I can't wait to go back! Make sure to ask about the specials. " (*Curated Review*)
