Nexus Brewery

It's been a while since I visited even though I have one of their membership cards. The place was extremely busy and I might have been overlooked in many other restaurants but the Nexus staff were on top of things. The host had me wait a few minutes but kept track and seated me promptly. The server was crazy busy (I don't even know how many tables he had but I would have been stressed out). He got right to me, put in my order and brought my beer and food in a flash. Amazingly efficient service. The food was the best I've had so far. Light crispy fries pickles, and super fresh, tender chicken. I do wish the NM hot was as spicy as the version I fell in love with a few years ago but it was still delicious and probably more to the taste of folks who aren't capsaicin junkies like me : )

We really liked this place! Maybe the first brewery I’ve been to that didn’t have your typical “brewery” food. Loved that it was all southern, and delicious. Menu isn’t huge but they do their items well. I also tried fried chicken, wings, and the Mac n cheese, and we loved them all. Beer was tasty too.

Wanted to check out this Black-owned brewery while in town. The beer flight was great while we waited at the bar for a table. I had the chicken and waffles NM style. The rest of my party has the Cat fish and swai NM style. They say it's spicy, but it's not. The plates are large, so you will definitely have leftovers. Our server, Cullen, was excellent and did a great job providing recommendations.

Fantastic experience here. We traveled to Albuquerque to eat green chile and to see the sights. We’ve eaten at all of the iconic places in town and this restaurant was our absolute FAVORITE. Reasonable prices. Excellent portions. Mike! Our server Mike was awesome!!!! We loved the NM Hot Catfish, my grilled chicken sandwich was excellent. My husband said the gumbo was some of the best he’s ever eaten! Save room for dessert and get the waffle batter fried bread pudding. Oh my. That was heaven in every bite. Beer was excellent also! This place is a bit challenging to find using google navigation - You have to drive through another business’s parking lot to get to theirs… so watch for the signs… ❤️

We sat at the bar. There is a welcoming vibe at Nexus. The service was excellent. Their catfish is fried to perfection. I didn't realize it was a soul food place until I saw the catfish. The hazy IPA I had was good. It would be nice if they had a juicy double IPA. We highly recommend eating here and having a beer.

The food was great! They have a lot of food so we kind of over ordered as it was our first time there. If you are going to do take out, order online before you get there. I waited about 30 minutes. There is a comfortable spot to wait. I will say the service was great! Oh yeah! The bread pudding is awesome! You can even get it deep fried!!
