Hurricane's Restaurant & Drive, Albuquerque

Hurricane's is a great all-purpose family greasy spoon. Standard American fare (including a good breakfast menu) with New Mexican food to boot. I'd actually eat NM over American there (waffles are good, pancakes so-so). The enchiladas are very good, as are the tacos. My wife had a so-so experience with a breakfast burrito recently, but overall they are very reliable when it comes to NM cuisine. Don't go for the interior design; food and service are what you will get here. And if the kids insist on chicken strips, you can bring them here and still have a worthy adult meal.
