Tripadvisor/Gary B.
Facebook/Alicia’s Tortilleria The tortillas here are freshly made each day. Try them in a burrito – there’s a wide selection available including chicharron, chile rellenos, and chicken mole. Alicia’s is a bit of a diamond in the rough and it’s located at 1314 Rufina Circle, Suite A in Santa Fe.
- Duran Central Pharmacy (Albuquerque)

- Dona Maria (Farmington)
