Love El Modelo Food!!

by Whiteline at Citysearch

I always make sure to eat at El Modelo on my trips through Albuquerque. From my many years of eating Mexican food in Albuq., I can tell you that they have the best authentic food in town! They have to die for carne and tamales. This place is a no fuss fancy restaurant and is carry out (you can eat at picnic tables or take with you). By the way, the sopapillas are so wonderful.

  • Pros: Authentic Food
5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended
