Tasty Vegan food!
Posted on 10 / 27 / 2012I have been looking for an Vegan restaurant that make tasty food for sometime now. I have eaten at every Vegan restaurant in ABQ leaving all of them dissatisfied. Well today was my first trip to Mint Tulips wow was I surprised when I took a bite of my Sausage Cheese Biscuit! It was large delicious and filling the biscuit was soft and the sausage was moist, tasty and flavorful. I also order the chicken wings for later on today, taste great. I plan on becoming a regular.
Pros: Tasty, Delicious, Organic
LOVED IT!
Posted on 10 / 24 / 2012I am in Albuquerque for one day and found this place through Happy Cow. I am so glad I did. It's a really cute place with delicious food. It's a no frills storefront on a main street. You order your food at the counter (big, versatile menu), and then they bring it to your table (outside or inside seating).
I had the BLT. It was delicious. It had the fake bacon, spinich, tomato and veganese. It came with a side of fantastic potato salad (you get a choice of sides).
It was plenty of food, and very reasonable prices (my meal and a green iced tea was only $11). I will definitely be back when I find myself in Albuquerque again.
Pros: Great Food, Cool Place, Good Prices
Nice surprise for a visitor
Posted on 07 / 22 / 2012I found this restaurant through the Happy Cow list. I had a breakfast of carrot-ginger juice and a "sausage" biscuit. Great comfort food.
LOVE Mint Tulip!
Posted on 06 / 16 / 2012I don't live in Albuquerque, but we eat here when ever we are in town. I love the Ruben Sandwich, the Chicago Soy Dairy (Chi. Vegan Foods now) soft serve is so good too.
Pros: Yummy, great location, friendly staffCons: A little pricey
I'm in love with this spot
Posted on 03 / 08 / 2012This place is the best thing that's ever happened to ABQ. Try the strawberry smoothy....Mmm! Literally everything on the menu is delicious!
Pros: Adorable place, Great location, Delicious food
Tasty vegan burger!
Posted on 12 / 09 / 2011Great tasty vegan burger! Definitely add avocado:). Potato salad was a little raw, but edible. Quirky place, nice friendly staff. Takes a little extra time to make the food but well worth the wait.
Pros: Tasty, Good price, CleanCons: Long prep time
Love these girls~
Posted on 10 / 29 / 2011Great prices, great food, cruelty free & compassionate. "What's not to love"?
A super fun stop in Albequerque
Posted on 10 / 19 / 2011I remember for years I'd drive through Alb on my way to California and WISH for a vegan restaurant to stop at to refuel my belly. Mint Tulip finally fulfills that need in a super cute and hip cafe bursting with color and cheery attitude. We both dined on the Top notch salade niçoise! Its adorned with colorful blue/purple potatoes and garden fresh veggies. They also serve Chicago Soy Dairy soft serve. Parking is easy out front, but don't forget to pay the meter and put the ticket on your dash!
Pros: nicoise salad, soft serve
Great Vegan Food!
Posted on 10 / 11 / 2011Great little vegan restaurant near the university. I had a superb Rubin sandwich and my wife loved her salad. Take the time to dine here, you won't be disappointed.
Pros: great food, good value, friendly peoplenot impressed
Posted on 09 / 16 / 2011I think the best way to describe this restaurant is funky and that their standards are too low for themselves. Everyone was helpful and friendly but there is the impression that they just don't want to be anymore than they are, that is a hole in the wall place that's fun for themselves and their friends. The food was OK but the presentation was really poor served on metal pans. The mint lemonade was marginal at best. Sorry guys but I probably won't be back.
Pros: location, happy employeesCons: not much imagination, presentation
Mint Tulip in Albuquerque
Posted on 06 / 19 / 2011Hard to say what's my favorite menu item at Mint Tulip. The summer salad is just lovely. I also enjoy the bagel without lox and the reuben. I eat there several times a month and I'm never disappointed. Love the iced coffee, too!!
Pros: friendly staff, excellent food, great atmosphereyummy and pretty
Posted on 03 / 31 / 2011Good variety and taste. We ate the Buffalo ranch wrap, BBQ sandwich, and Reuben sandwich. All very tasty! A little pricy and the juicer was loud but the staff was very friendly. Will definitely eat here again.
Pros: fresh, good sized portions, good varietyCons: a little pricey , loud juicer behind the counter, no whole grain breads
nice little place
Posted on 07 / 09 / 2010i went there today. the host was really sweet and her son was there too and helped her with some stuff. i got a smoothie with blueberries, banana and rasberries and it tasted really great. i injoyed it! then i got a avokado and tofu salad with tahin-dressing. it was nice, tasted good. the tofu wasnt roasted og anything as i had expected, but it was a great meel! and at the end, i eat a vegan cookie with chocolatecips. it was so great!
is you have in mind that it is just a little cafe, its a good place!
i would drop by if i'll ever come to albuquerque again.

There is nothing funky about this place. They have fresh flowers at every table and real cloth napkins!
The food was served on metal pans, but there is a piece of cooking paper on top of the pan where the sandwich sits. The actual arrangement of food is elegant and artistic like you would find in a much fancier restaurant.
I found the standards to be uniformly high. Much higher than "hole in the wall" restaurants. I don't fault them for making the restaurant a fun place to be.
The food I had was absolutely delicious. There were a few items I had that were not quite as delicious as other items, but across the board it was heads and tails above their competition.
