It's one of the best place to get authentic New Mexican food! Everything tested fresh, homemade and authentic New Mexican flavor. The price was very reasonable and servers were very friendly. We will definitely be coming back!

Tried this place for the first time today- as we got out of the car- it smelled SOOOO good, we couldn't wait to go in. The staff was awesome! Our server was one of the best we have had in a long time! I ordered the parea burger with green Chile and my wife got the cheese enchiladas with green. They were both soooo good! Definitely some of the best enchiladas I've had! Everything tasted homemade. It truly tasted like we were eating at someone's home. I HIGHLY recommend stopping in and getting a bite to eat here! Save room for their sopapillas!!!!

Efficient and superior service throughout our time there - with 14 people in our group! Food was excellent too. Definitely worth the trip. Staff worked well together to make for a memorable experience. Thanks.

Moved from Alb over 27 years ago but always come back to Perea’s for the absolute best chorizo and potato burrito with Green on the planet!! Bar none! You must try it at least once! Small restaurant but definitely worth the wait. Also tried the carne adovada with red which was also very tasty. But the burrito…WOW! So glad to come visit family regularly just to visit Perea’s too.

Perea’s was AMAZING. The staff was so kind - as someone who’s never been to New Mexico, our server gave great recommendations of some of the classics we needed to try. The food was incredibly flavorful and thoughtful across the board - easily the best sopas my friend and I have ever had. Portions were generous and the space is very warm and cozy. We would never stop coming here if we lived more close by!

Always great place to eat. Was packed and people waiting out the door but was delicious and worth the wait. We had Frontier the day before and this was 1000000 times better, no comparison. Frontier was overhyped and bland and stale.

I really have only been here twice and both have been for takeout burritos. The first time I got the chicharrone and bean burrito everything was delicious and wonderful...especially it was a fantastic size for the price. This most recent time that I ordered the same burrito, it was almost half the size and the chicharrone was not as fresh tasting. They are still an amazing restaurant to visit and I hope that this review helps them to do a little bit more quality control.

Little place, no parking on the front but enough on the back and side. Flour tortillas are thick and taste good, that way you know these are made on site and not store-bought, I got a Christmas lunch ground beef burrito, green Chile felt like medium hot, it was good enough for me to go back and try something else. The cost are average on new mexican food,
