It was packed at 11am when we came for breakfast rush and the line was 20+ min long. Absolutely worth it. Great food made fast and cozy hometown ambiance. Really liked the eclectic decor and artwork that helps give Frontier an iconic and unique local character. The restaurant was much larger than I expected, felt like they just kept expanding into the buildings next door. So many spaces for seating that were full of people. Buttery cinnamon rolls were to die for. If I was a local I could see myself coming here all the time.
Fabulous home style authentic New Mexican family owned restaurant. Enjoy the local art, sculptures, paintings while you dine on great homestyle cooking, friendly fast service. FIVE STARS!!!
Tasty food that was ready quickly. Fun, relaxed vibe with tons of tables. Seems like they get pretty busy but they've got a good system down. We were there around 9:30pm when it wasn't busy and our order was ready in under 5 minutes. Order at a counter and they have order number screens around the restaurant so you know when yours is ready. Kind of a sit-down style meal with fast good speed and ordering. Lots of locals and very inexpensive
This is a pretty iconic Albuquerque eatery from what I’m told. It has a unique atmosphere and the building has a lot of character and history. The food is solid. I want to come back and try some more items. Loved the green Chile stew. The hard taco uses a shell similar to Taco Bell, but better. If the ground beef tacos at Taco Bell or as good as they are at frontier, people would be lining up out the window all day long to get them. I want to come back and try the chicken taco. Huevos rancheros were solid. I had them with green and red chili, one each, Christmas style. The green chili cheeseburger was also good and the fries were crispy and delicious.

This is a causal spot if you're looking for a quick meal and to try New Mexico food like us. We thought the food was tasty, but it was our first time having New Mexico food so we had nothing to compare it to. The atmosphere was fun with great artwork/photos all over. If you are looking for something more high end this is not your spot!
This place is such a trip! We enjoyed the burritos and breakfast plates. Warm and cold salsas and self-serve coffee make the dining fun and the decor is mind-blowing
Walk up counter service Mexican food joint. Food is good. There is a ton of southwest art work. Dominated by John Wayne. Plenty of seating to handle even large crowds.
Good comfort food at a good price. Mocha coffee and cinnamon rolls are a must.
Literally flew back from PA just to have a Frontier Burrito! I got it to go because I knew I wouldn't finish it right away haha
I lived in Abq my whole life and recently moved away, the food just doesn't compare anywhere else. If you're looking for comfort food this is your spot. Don't forget to grab a Frontier roll for the road!
Grateful for this late night place in ABQ. My husband and I had green chile burgers and a Mexican combo. Also had a frontier roll for dessert. Loved most everything, the beans a little on the dry side for my taste.
