Both the outstanding food and service in this restaurant make it a must place to try. The margaritas were excellent and all of our food was extremely well made and delicious! This is a don't miss restaurant for great New Mexican cuisine!

We ended up choosing Tomasita's because I thought I had seen it on tv once and the fact that we couldn't decide where else to go. Lucky us! There was a line already forming when we pulled up ( a good sign). The restaurant was quaint, nothing fancy, friendly atmosphere. We were seated right away with the option to sit... More

My wife Ibtake our three children to Tomasitas at least once a month. We drive from Albuquerque. I have lived in New Mexico my whole life and by far Tomasitas is my favorite New Mexican restaurant. The food is always cooked perfectly. One thing that is unusual is they don't serve you too much. They dont overburden you with sides.... More

Thomasita's is a great place for mexican food, and margaritas. We drive up there from Albuquerque at least once a month to indulge! Worth the trip.

The food was delicious and the margaritas, while seemingly on the small side, pack a real punch! The strawberry margaritas with sugared rims were yummy.

We were in town on a Saturday, so we decided to eat first and site see later, and were glad we did. We arrived around 5 and were seated immediately, the line was out the door when we left. We ordered the special of the day, carnitas (beef marinated in green chile sauce) and it was wonderfully tender and spicy.... More

My husband I have eaten here once without our children because we had heard how packed the restaurant always is. They were right, we waited to be seated, we waited to have our orders taken, we waited for the food, we waited for the bill. My little girl and boy would have been cranky. The food is average. There are... More

Tomasita's is a great place to eat, and the tourists know it. I love to eat here because the food is great. It does get crowded inside and there is not much room for tables.

A well known spot with locals - lively and delicious! The margs are okay - a bit watered down. I had the Monday Blue Plate Special - tamales - it was a bit on the small size but the Blue Plates are available any night of the week. Good sauces both red and green - this place is home to... More

For years I'd eaten at a small Mexican restaurant in Laramie WY - home-cooked food (family was from NM). But I never have found anything like that wonderful food, until eating at Tomasita's. My neighbor is from SF and told me to eat there...glad we did. I found my "Laramie Mexican cuisine". Very adequate but not overwhelming portion. Food was... More
