Visit Albuquerque: Frontier Restaurant

Our first meal in New Mexico was at the very popular, very busy Frontier Restaurant in Albuquerque.

This fast casual restaurant serves everything from breakfast and burgers to salads and New Mexican food.

Chicken Strips

Cheeseburger

Taco

Green Chile Stew

Onion Rings

Frontier Burrito

I decided to get the Green Chile Stew (since I read that when in New Mexico you should try green chile everything).  It was very flavorful!

The Frontier Burrito was stuffed with beef, beans, and green chile, and topped with a green chile stew and cheese.   

I loved the Fries that came with the Chicken Strips.

Frontier Sweet Roll

We decided to order a couple of Frontier Sweet Rolls for dessert to go.  They were yummy - if you love cinnamon rolls definitely order these!

Around the restaurant there are signs for 45 minutes of free parking ($5/per hour charge thereafter), and when we first arrived we were wondering if 45 minutes would be enough time.

It wasn't.

By the time we got our food we only had 19 minutes to eat!  The huge restaurant was very, very crowded.

As soon as my husband finished eating, we had a couple minutes to spare, so he waited in the car while everyone else finished up eating, just in case. 

The food was good, prices were reasonable, and the service was okay.  Frontier Restaurant is definitely worth a visit at least once if you're in Albuquerque.
