Mexican Cuisine
If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.
Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.
Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.

This is your basic, run-of-the-mill diner. It just so happens to be in New Mexico and decorated appropriately. The green chiles were pretty good but aside from that, this place didn't make much of an impression on me. I had the canyon burger with an egg on it. It was a decent burger but service was slow for the amount of people in the diner. If you like the diner feel and are in the area, this place beats fast food.

Meh? I figured it would be exactly what it was... Just meh. Our serve seemed a little overwhelmed by our group of six, but who knows what she had to deal with before us, so I can't say too much. The food was not great but not awful. It's great if you like that "this is the only diner our small town has" feel/taste, then this is your jam. I, however, have checked this off my list, and will be visiting other establishments for my lunch hour.

So I've been here twice for breakfast and my honest review of the place is: meh. That's being completely honest. The decor and ambiance feels stuffy at best with muted pinks and greens. The menu I received this time was falling apart at one seem (I know my two whole readers of my reviews are like get of the menu rampage already!). But I dunno a menu says a lot about a place. The real testament of any restaurant is the food and it's here that I have no issue. The food is just what you'd get at any other diner. Just regular. Nothing special. That's not a bad thing if you're looking for a cheap easy meal. I had scrambled eggs, a slice of french toast, hash browns, and bacon ('merica!). None of it was greasy which is nice, but I did ask for my bacon ('merica!) crispy and it wasn't as done as I like it. No wiggle in that bacon ('merica!) and then its crispy enough. I digress. I mean you really can't screw up breakfast, but you can certainly make it a bit more exciting.

We loved our fish meal. The wait staff was excellent . We were first seated in a booth and could feel the bottom frame. We complained and we're seated at a table. Simple atmosphere and clean setting. Get The Booths fixed

Alright, after spending 5 days at Kirtland AFB we ended up going to the Copper Canyon almost everyday, mostly for breakfast. In addition to my last review I ordered the breakfast burrito, the Ranchero Canyon omelette and the veggie omelette. All were large and quite tasty. Their staff continued to be friendly and attentive, the meals were served promptly and each time we were there they had a steady number of tables filled. Very pleased with this consistent restaurant.

Chose the green enchilada plate. Very good. Fresh-cooked beans. Daughter had giant sausage patty and scrambled eggs. Great value for only $2.50. Green chile good. About a 5 on scale of 1 to 10. Red chile on the other hand tasted better today. About a 6 on heat scale. Overall, we left full, happy and looking forward to our next visit.

Stopped in for breakfast this morning since we were across the street at the VA hospital. Nice clean, country-like atmosphere and we were greeted by the smell of bacon...yep, it was divine...and may have actually lured us from the hospital parking lot! The waitress must have seen us coming in from the outside, she politely showed us to the table where she had already placed two menu's for us, took our drink order and returned very quickly. The breakfast selection is great. Eggs, biscuits & gravy, pancakes, waffles, oatmeal..etc. For a southern boy like my husband...the biscuits and gravy were the obvious choice. I stayed true to my roots and had the Huevos Rancheros. After ordering our food, our meal was at our table within 10 minutes. I was impressed. My huevos came with whole pinto beans and a choice of either papitas or hash browns, I went with the hash browns. My eggs were cooked perfectly, I like mine over medium and the egg white has to be cooked! The beans were delicious...tasted home made and not from a can, seasoned very well. Green chile had grade flavor. I usually like my huevos on a corn tortilla, but at Copper Canyon they use flour (I'm sure you could substitute if you wanted too) and it was just as good. My hubby's biscuits and gravy meal was demolished in a matter of minutes...eggs scrambled and with that amazing bacon...I'd have to say this thick, crispy bacon was some of the best bacon I've ever had. And I love bacon. The gravy was southern-style...white gravy with pepper and the biscuits were a good size and fresh. Absolutely a great way to start the day...if you're over on Gibson west of the base...stop in and have a bite. You won't be disappointed! (they have free wi-fi too!)

This was the first place that I ate at when I was in ABQ. I ordered an Enchilada and I thought it was ok. There was nothing really special about it. I asked the waitress some simple questions about the menu and she had no idea how to answer me. Instead, she told me to ask one of my co-workers to answer for me since they were ordering the dish that I had a question about.

Located conveniently for KAFB workers, this is a popular spot. The food is OK and the wait staff always attentive and pleasant. The omelets are good, and I've enjoyed their breakfast burritos. It is an inexpensive and inoffensive place for lunch.

Was looking forward to a big breakfast due to not having any supper the night before. Atmosphere does not make the food but could use some updating. If I had to do over I would go elsewhere for my biggest meal of the day.

I haven't been to Copper Canyon for many years. Unfortunately, I've been back to ABQ twice in less than a month for the funerals for my grandparents. One of my cousins flew in for the funeral, so he and I decided to get breakfast, on our way to the airport. We had gone to Seferino's a few days before, so we wanted something different. I remembered going to Copper Canyon a few years ago, so I decided to give it a try. (My parents and I used to go quite often, but the manager left for another restaurant, so my parents followed her and stopped going to Copper Canyon.) Damián ordered the breakfast burrito with red chile. He devoured it, so I'm assuming that he liked it. Given the fact that he is usually talking and not eating, that speaks for the quality of the food. I ordered the enchiladas and eggs. I got the eggs scrambled, didn't want the potatoes or flour tortilla (gotta watch the carbs!). The enchiladas I got with green chile. I forgot how tasty their green chile was! I ate the enchiladas and the two eggs and I was done! I didn't even really touch the beans. I'm a beaner! So for me not to eat the beans was amazing. I was so full. The restaurant was an old IHOP, I think. There is a room in the back that can be shut off from the main part of the restaurant. Decor isn't anything special, but it is clean and not run down. I will have to visit again, when I return. I want to have the chicken fried steak with green chile again. Superb! Oh, and they gave us a discount since Damián is in the military.

Really good albeit greasy food (it is a lovely non-corporate greasy spoon with a family-owned atmosphere). Waitstaff is very nice and attentive. Customers tend to be mainly military folks, the elderly, and often folks visiting their loved ones at the hospitals across the street.

I've been here a couple of times for lunch, and have ordered breakfast and lunch items from the menu. The portions are massive and the prices are reasonable; the service staff is friendly and attentive. The sides of rice and beans were ok, nothing special, but overall the meals have been solid.

this place is a hit or miss for every time i go there. I got a chicken southwestern salad. Amazing, but i had this burger that used chuck meat... which was REALLY gross and greasy (all their burgers do) But then today i had the BEST chicken fried steak in Alb. Their food is for old people.... so everything tastes either way plain or way salty... but i keep coming back..

This place is great if you like breakfast burritos and are hungry. If you are in a hurry I recommend calling in a take out order of a "handheld" burrito. This thing can come with eggs, bacon, sausage, ham, hashbrowns, green chile, cheese, whatever you feel like. The contents are cooked (with butter I think) and placed in a huge tortilla. Its the best breakfast burrito around (even better than dos hermanos, the frontier, or golden pride). Not something you want to do everyday as I imagine each one of these is around 1000 calories. I forgot to mention the best part last time I got one they were still under $5. This place also has good food if you want to sit down for breakfast, but if you are hungry and you don't have much time the handheld to go a must.
