" La Salita set a new standard for New Mexican cuisine in my book! We decided to try their lunch special, and I was completely blown away! The flavors were vibrant, and everything felt fresh and homemade. The staff was knowledgeable and made great recommendations on menu items. If you're looking for an authentic and delicious meal, I would definitely recommend trying this place out. Can't wait to come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I love coming to La Salita during the Taco Tuesday special! The value is unbeatable, and the range of flavors in the tacos is impressive. Every bite reminds me of the authentic dishes I enjoyed while growing up in New Mexico. The staff is always welcoming and eager to help. Highly marked my recommendation for anyone looking for genuine New Mexican tastes! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited La Salita with friends for dinner last weekend and it was such a fun experience! We shared a variety of dishes and every single one was packed with flavor. I particularly adored the green enchiladas—it’s tough to find a place that does them just right! The atmosphere felt lively and inviting. The service was attentive, making sure our drinks were always full and that we had everything we needed. Can't wait to go back and try more of the menu options! " (*Curated Review*)

" La Salita was not what I expected. While the staff was friendly, the food was disappointing. I ordered the carne adovada burrito based on recommendation, but it lacked the rich flavor I associate with authentic New Mexican food. The fresh chips and salsa were good, but my main dish felt like a letdown. The atmosphere is nice, making it a comfortable space to enjoy a meal with friends, but unfortunately, the food didn’t deliver for me. " (*Curated Review*)

" I stopped by La Salita for a quick lunch as I was passing through Albuquerque. The fish tacos sounded intriguing, and they did not disappoint! They were flavorful and fresh, served with a lovely side of chips. The restaurant had a clean and neat vibe, but it was rather busy, making service a bit slower than ideal. Overall, a solid choice, and I was happy with my meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved the tacos at La Salita! My family and I tried a mix of dishes and were thrilled with how each dish was bursting with different flavors. The staff accommodated us very kindly, and we felt at home. The atmosphere is relaxed and family-friendly. I can't wait to come back and introduce my friends to this delicious spot! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited La Salita with high hopes based on previous experiences and reputation, but I was a bit disappointed this time. The food lacked the authenticity I was looking for, especially when it came to the green chili. It seemed more watered down than I remembered. On the upside, the service remained excellent with a friendly and welcoming staff. I might give it another chance, but my recent experience has me questioning some of their offerings.
