Reviews for Flying Star Cafe in Albuquerque, NM
I had a Buddha Bowl and it was a fabulous mélange of beautifully cooked rice topped with chopped chicken pieces that were juicy... and tender on the inside and crispy crunchy on the outside, along with gorgeous veg and crispy strips. The sauce was subtle butdelicious. The ONLY complaints I have is that they don't take the spines out of the pea pods AND the pieces of veg are way wayway too big. I'll ask for a sharp knife the next time, so I can cut those pieces down to bite size. My friend and I brought ourdogs and we sat outside under the trees. Even though it was a hot day, the shade provided by trees was plenty to take the tempsdown quite a bit. I just love this restaurant. Read more
When we arrived there was a line waiting to order. You have to seat yourself at the cafe. The seating outside if you want to... bring your dog. Our visit started out on a negative note. A woman come to our table who I can only assume is the manager as shedid not identify herself. Asked if I was videotaping "her employees". I answered no and then in a even Sterner voice she askedme the same question again, to which I answered no again. Service was horrible! Rather loud inside the restaurant. There was awoman next to us who completely exposed herself I thought she was going to feed her child, but never did and finally put itaway. Then the next thing I saw her do was sniff her child's rear end and then put her hand in that area smelled it and thenactually stuck her tongue to the fingers she used. Never saw the manager visit her table! Food was good, however I will never goin there again! Read more

Really good place and have a variety of choices. There was a hair in my pie and was just asking for another one but instead they... comped my pie and gave me a new piece. The food is good and the service is great Read more
Not a lot of vegan options. No tofu scramble anymore. We ordered Vegan Street Tacos, but they were not available. The server... suggested a Buddha bowl with tofu, which was filling (brown rice, veggies, edamame, and tofu) but lacked real taste (mostly soysauce). Nice to sit on the patio on a Sunday morning though. Read more
I stopped for food around 5 pm Sunday night, never having been here or done curbside pickup. The ordering on my phone went... easily, food time was 30 minutes. Only confusion was not knowing I had to call since I told them I was there?! Got a freedessert- delicious turtle cheesecake! No mistakes in a larger order. Food was really good, packaged well. I would ( and will) goagain! My cod sandwich was really good! Onion rings are amazing! Read more
