Had an amazing #GreenChiliCheeseburger, served fresh, hot, and with a smile - during the height of lunch rush. Staff is beyond accommodating and truly shows interest in making every customer happy. Busy as it was, I didn't have to "ask for a refill". It's not 5 Star cuisine*, but if you rather have a great burger and a smile (*instead of $100 for scallops) - Duran's Station IS the spot! PS, couldn't resist a sopapilla too!

Very nice authentic New Mexican food. Fritto pie for $11?! It's good food and very nice staff and owner they assemble plates right in front of you very clean amd tasty. Portions are not a two pounds of rice and beans ! But priced reasonably, good quality amd atmosphere. I enjoyed going there and will go again. You see a picture with empty seat? Yeah good luck with that ! It's always packed and better catch it a bit off rush hours. Hope you enjoy it.

We had the blue corn flat enchiladas with beef. Extra red chili. It was quite enjoyable!

I really liked the chile relleno and the beef enchilada. I had the red and green chili sauce and they were mild. The place was busy but service was efficient.

I like simple when it comes to nachos… and the nachos at Duran’s Station were perfect! The nachos come with melted shredded cheese, pinto beans, and jalapeños. I also tried their hamburger steak plate with fried potatoes. I’m not a fan of steam potatoes so I’m glad they have options. And their red chile is so tasty! Some of the best I’ve had in town. I know Duran’s Central Pharmacy is talked about more, but in my opinion, Duran’s Station better.

We really enjoyed our dinner here! It was our first time in ABQ and we knew we had to try New Mexican food right away. I got a cheese enchilada and chile relleno, both of which were delicious. The red sauce has just the right amount of spice. Our waitress was also very kind and the service was quick, which was nice because we were in a rush to get to an event, otherwise we would have stayed and enjoyed longer!
