I have eaten here many times with many people, and it's always been great. There is a reason you'll see a long line, and you will be happy you joined that line and waited just a little bit to have an excellent lunch.

This is by far the hidden gem of Reno. My husband brought me to this fantastic place when I moved out here 9 years ago. And it's won my heart ever since. I recommend it to everyone I know. It's must go to when family comes into town. Hands down recommend this establishment! The quality of food is absolutely delicious. Staff is friendly and the place is very clean. Steak burrito is a favorite. As well as the chips and salsa

This was my first time visiting Albitas and the food was amazing! I had Grilled tacos with Chile Verde, and Rice and beans on the side. The staff was very kind, helpful and professional. The price was very reasonable, and the tacos were overflowing with delicious meat sauce and all the other fixings you want. The atmosphere is very casual, you order at the counter from a hand written menu. Then around the corner to pay for your meal and get drinks. Your meal is ready and on the table when you get there. Great place for a quick lunch. I will be back to Albitas! Edit- forgot to mention Albitas is only open for lunch, M-Sat.

I have to say I am super impressed! I’ve lived in Reno 30 years and never knew about this restaurant until the other day. They have the best burritos in town hands down. First time I went in I got the Al Pastor & it was delicious, second time I went in (the next day) got the Asada and very delicious. I’m so happy I found this restaurant this is definitely the best in Reno! Thank you Albitas. Not to mention the service is great I will be back time and time again. Can’t wait to try more things.

This is an authentic Mexican family restaurant. I enjoyed a savory Chile Verde burrito, covered with salsa Verde, pico de gallo, and sour cream. It's simply excellent. I took several pictures including one showing the contents. There is ample meat. This is the type of business I want to support. The food and service are both excellent. Their 4.7 Google score is evidence enough.

Great, friendly staff and great food! They're amazing! I had a burrito and the chips and salsa. If you don't do spicy, don't try the salsa.

Great little place close to the Reno airport. They are hidden in a strip mall off the road. The food was good and the service was friendly. Better than most upscale eateries that I’ve been to. Similar to a Mexican grill type restaurant.
