     Sadie's is one of the most popular New Mexican restaurants in Albuquerque: big portions, very reasonable prices, and tasty food. Since it is New Mexican food, you can expect a heaping plate full of Southwestern fare, sometimes smothered with chili and cheese. If a bang for your buck is what you're looking for, Sadie's is definitely the place to go.


       Almost all the New Mexican restaurants in New Mexico offer free chips and salsa, and Sadie's is no exception. Sadie's salsa is famous for being fiery hot. You can see the jalapeños and green chili melding in their salsa. Chili lovers can get a warm-up round just from this free appetizer.


Red chili ristras can be spotted often in New Mexico. I wonder if it represents New Mexican's attitude towards life: Sometimes hot and spicy, and sometimes just hangin' around.

  This is the weekend special  Breakfast Burrito: A tortilla wrapped with fried potato dices (or papitas), bacon, eggs and chili (red, green, or "Christmas"), sprinkled with pinto beans, tomatoes and lettuce, finished with an utter-full of cheese. The price is $7.35, big enough for 2 adults to share.
