What is New Mexican Soul Food? It’s the fusion of spicy New Mexican cuisine and to create one unbelievable flavor experience only available at our two locations in Albuquerque. Cajun chicken chicharrones are one of our most popular appetizers, made with hand-cut boneless chicken thighs, breaded or gluten-free, seasoned with cajun spices and fresh cilantro. Each crisp bite will make your tastebuds sing and make our diners say “wow!” Our massive nachos are piled high with house-made red or green chile, crisp lettuce, spicy pico de gallo and a dollop of sour cream and turn heads at every table when they’re delivered. And if you’re craving Mama’s beans and rice, you’ll love our fiery version made with Andouille sausage and spices.
Our second location, Nexus Blue Smokehouse, is for those who crave barbecue and perfectly smoked meats. Nexus Blue Smokehouse is the best restaurant in Albuquerque for brisket that is fall-apart tender, burnt ends that pair perfectly with our craft beer, for a big, old-fashioned barbecue spread, or that perfect pulled pork sandwich.
