    Don't let the construction scare you. I can't wait to see it looks like when it's done. I got the Kosmo Burger with cheese and green chili (it was extra hot this time). Garrett recommended "smashed" and I do too. Their version of the In&Out Burger is highly recommended as well.

    Great dining experience! I ordered the roasted butternut squash salad with lemon thyme dressing and the guava margarita and both items were delicious. Our server, Savannah, was especially friendly and kind. The environment inside is very interesting and it’s a great place to meet with friends. It’s on the pricier side but worth it in my opinion :)

    Reaaly cool place. Had the Kosmo burger, smash style with bacon and cheddar. Shared the spiral fries and fried pickles basket and those pickles were awesome, especially with the green chile dip. Savannah did a great job serving us.

    As others have said...ignore the parking lot! Cool vibe, delicious fresh food, beautiful and delicious drinks!! Garrett was awesome with kind service and great recommendations. The view of the sunset was gorgeous! And the hip music set the mood. Great date night spot and we can't wait to go back!!!

    We are in town for a car show and found this amazing gem near by. A rustic feel when walking in with a touch of modern goodness. The goods are in the form of the drinks and food. They have a great list of craft beers on tap that will not disappoint. I personally ordered the steak sandwich. Added an egg and bacon to it for the win! I highly recommend this place as a laid back eatery that offers amazing customer service and quality in their goods. This will be a must go to spot for us when in town moving forward.

    Decided to go to a new burger place based off of reviews and saw this place was raving about the meat and spud fries. Ate here for the first time with my friend and was BLOWN away. The spud fries are out of this world! It’s the perfect mix of having the crunch of shoe string fries and the nice fluffy inside of a steak fry. The meat is absolutely delicious! On the second time I ate here I took my mom, she absolutely loved everything I mentioned! Found out the meat was bought locally from native tribes from NM. Absolutely love that everything from here is local. If you’re looking for a new place to try and have a brew, definitely stop by this hidden gem! ❤️❤️❤️

    What a great find. It's tucked away in a construction area but don't let that deter you. The food was truly amazing. The spudnik fries were incredible. The burger was cooked perfectly and a great selection of beers awaited us. Would go back there just for the fries and pickles!!!

    Look, I know what it looks like pulling into this place. Seriously, the place is so worth it! The ambiance was awesome - pieces of art everywhere - and the food was delicious! The battered fish was the perfect amount of flakey and crisp, it was just divine. The staff was very nice and our waitress was lovely!

    Albuquerque's best kept secret! I stumbled upon this place and was absolutely blown away by the delicious food! What a great find for some terrific greasy spoon hangover food. After struggling briefly to find the joint, once inside I enjoyed some great food. I started with the Spudnik fries and fried pickles, both excellent. The Spudnik fries however, are completely unique and so tasty. They are wide spiral cut, seasoned, with a crispy exterior and a soft, fluffy interior. This is served with ranch and a green chile dip that is dangerously addictive. For my entrée, I ordered the fish & chips with a side of mac n cheese and coleslaw. This came out hot and crispy. Two, huge pieces of beer battered cod and a heaping service of homecare creamy, rich, macaroni and cheese. Both were delicious but the mac n cheese might be one of the best I've had in NM. Finding a hidden gem like this is always a great experience. I highly recommend you try them out. I can't wait to go back!

    We randomly found this place on Google! First off the building itself is cool looking..inside the atmosphere and design was even cooler. Very relaxed, welcoming and original. The service was amazing, and the food just made it even better. We all had different items... the steak sandwich is a 10/10-- the steak was soo tender and cooked to perfection. The fish & chips was massive and so good, very crispy, and seasoned well. The macaroni & cheese was yummy and perfect cheesiness.. and last but not least the chicken sandwich was juicy, crisp and delicious. We would all go back again!

    Being hungry late on a Friday can lead you to search deep in and around your area. And luckily we found this spot that we had never tried. It had a great atmosphere there was live music and the food was great. The grass fed burger was cooked to order and the fish and chips had a nice seasoning with tartar sauce. I suggest giving this pub a try.

    Little hidden gem on ABQ, flank steak dinner cooked (medium) and seasoned to perfection. Mushrooms that come with it were superb. In house made veggie burger hit the ballpark, made with real ingredients not meat substitutes. Something on the menu for all dietary choices. Great draft beer. Highly recommend. Our server super friendly, likeable and attentive, missed the name but he is from San Antonio TX.

    Somewhere between Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory and Star Trek atmosphere. It's a different/cool setting to eat no doubt. The food was great. Recommend the steak sandwich. It's actually thick steak slices for the meat.... AWESOME! The art and good are both good quality.

    A definite must try! Was driving through NM and decided to stop in from all the great reviews and did not disappoint. Very cool inside & out along with friendly, attentive team members. Drinks were delicious and spud fries were tasty.

    I cannot begin to recommend Kosmos enough. I had seen posts of theirs for years and have always wanted to try and finally got the chance and let me tell you was I blown away! They had a mock In-N-Out burger on special that was to die for. Their mac and cheese was heavenly and the fried pickles and Sputnik fry basket was a perfect addition! On top of amazing food our waiter was so nice and the decir in the restaurant can keep your attention for the duration of your stay. Whether you're a local or visiting from out of town I would rate Kosmos 10/10 and I definitely would recommend that you stop by here.

    As we traveled along the 40 we decided that we wanted to go to a restaurant for dinner. As we made our search we found this newer restaurant named “The Kosmos” after looking at a couple of reviews and pictures we decided to give it a shot though the current satellite image on google made it look a little sketchy. With one way streets it made it a bit confusing at first but we made it there. We orders several things from the menu but hands down the Kosmo burger won us over! Kudos to the chef it was cooked to perfection. We ended arriving around 8Pm and the atmosphere (vibe) was chill. Not that many people maybe 3 other parties. The only negative thing I will say about this place is that being attended to at first did take quite bit. Being 1st timers we didn’t know how it worked if we sat ourselves we noticed a group of employees hanging around the bar. After one of the gentleman attends to us he got the ball rolling I will say both the salad and rice were very good and different we would definitely eat here again if we were locals. It’s a must try.

    Hands down the absolute best fried chicken sandwich we have ever had. I don't say that lightly and was shocked the first time we visited this restaurant because everything was so good. The cocktails are delicious as is pretty much any item you pick off the menu. The staff is excellent. Again, the chicken sandwich is an absolute must!

  • 5/5 kelly H. 5 months ago on Google
    Everything was absolutely perfect and delicious! Rustic, comfortable, and inviting! Prices are competitive with today’s economy. And the food was absolutely delicious! Everything came out hot. Nothing was held at lower temperatures. The fish was hot and crispy in the fries were hot and crispy. The chicken sandwiches were hot and crispy. The drinks were absolutely delicious! if you’re going to call us a five star restaurant, I will give it a 10!
