Franks Famous Chicken & Waffles has been serving up some of Albuquerques only true soul food for about a year and a half. Franks has won numerous Albuquerque culinary awards including Best Soul Food in the City in Albuquerque the Mags 2014 Best of the City. A meal at Franks is like sitting down in someones actual living room, surrounded by their personal collection of paintings and memorabilia, old LPs and CDs, and just getting down with this grub, like, Barry White style. The catfish, waffles, okra, mac n cheese, shrimp n grits, hot wings, everything coming out of the kitchen is meant to fatten you up and make you smile, add a glass of kool aid to that. My heart aches for my hometown every time I get a glimpse of that Prince portrait on the wall. This is the real thing, folks. Good luck finding this anywhere else in New Mexico.
