What People Are Saying
from Google & Yelp"Not impressed. We got the breakfast burrito with bacon, the rise and shine breakfast sandwich on a biscuit, and a blueberry pancake. The scrambled eggs here are unlike any form of scrambled eggs I've had outside of a quiche. I'm not sure if they whip them extensively first or what but they have a very airy, foamy texture which is off-putting. For the burrito, it was filled with these weird eggs and just a long slice of bacon. The flavors were ok but we couldn't finish it due to the eggs. The breakfast sandwich that was served to us was crumbled. The biscuit has fallen all apart and there was a tiny hint of egg and bacon and cheese in the middle. Very dry, underwhelming and sad presentation for my first impression here. The pancake tasted the best but the batter was over mixed which caused it to be tough and dry. The prices for their baked goods is ridiculous with $8.50-$9 for a slice of cake or pie. Overall, I wouldn't recommend."
"We have not lived in NM for over 20 years now, but you can’t take the NM out of us. Every time we come to ABQ, we eat breakfast at one of two Flying Stars. Nowhere is better. Green and red chile are both great, the pastries are perfect and coffees are as good as anywhere. Just come, stand in line if you need to, it’s always an enjoyable experience for us! The faces change, but the joy is consistent!"
"My go to place for doing some remote work and getting a great authentic New Mexican breakfast. Plenty of seating and outlets to plug in the laptop. My chai was elevating and paired with my benedict perfectly. The yolks on the benedict were runny and seasoned, and the sausage added a perfect hint of spice to the already accentuated green chile in the gravy."
"I used to love this place but it’s really gone downhill. Got rid of a lot of my favorite stuff. Spent 20$ on a sandwhich that had a small piece of meat, bad green chile, made with cheap bread, and bad fries. The cakes aren’t too bad i guess."
"Flying Star continues to be a neighborhood staple, and experiences like this are exactly why. Chrisoula was an absolute delight—kind, attentive, and genuinely invested in making sure I enjoyed my time there. She went above and beyond in every way, was incredibly knowledgeable about the menu, and even shared details about their upcoming seasonal desserts, which made the visit feel thoughtful and personal. Chrisoula is truly a gem to both the neighborhood and the Flying Star team. Service like hers makes all the difference. A complimentary letter will be sent to management and ownership. Bravo!"
"Great place for breakfast! I like their salads especially the Asian salad, which can be ordered at breakfast time. My husband loves the egg dishes and we..."
