This was our first time here. Food and peach cobbler were good. Service from Demond was excellent. He was very helpful and so nice. We did not feel rushed to order. We will be back.

The chicken here is excellent. I had the three piece with two sides. The sides were a little pedestrian/green beans were over cooked and mashed potatoes were ok. But if you are hungry for chicken you can't beat this place. It won't be my last stop here.

Let's see now - I'll list the things that were good: the chicken, the catfish, the chicken-fried steak and the sides. The bad? Wait, there wasn't ANYTHING bad in the four meals we got! The portions were good for the price paid (this from someone who remembers 22 cents hamburgers). There was no error in our order and the woman at the checkout was friendly. We WILL return to Ms. Gennie's.

Very nicely prepared Catfish Dinner.

Great customer service from everyone including the kind owner. The FOH was knowledgeable about the menu and an asset to the business from our experience. The chicken was seasoned , not juicy and not special. Cold beer in a frosted mug a plus. Chips and salsa was nice while waiting for our dinner.

Delicious chicken! Best fried chicken in Albuquerque in my opinion, heck best in all of New Mexico. The coleslaw is a cilantro lime flavor, and very good. Ms. Gennie's beans have chucks of sausage and tomatoes- sooooo yummy! Simple great lunch spot!

Ms. Gennie knows fried chicken! We we craving some comfort food, so we placed an order for a 2 piece dark meal and a chicken tender plate. We had ALL the fixins! Mashed potatoes, Gennies beans, green beans, cornbread, biscuits, sweet tea and peach cobbler. Everything was fantastic. I told my friends, next time I’m bringing all y’all to Ms. Gennies! *sorry for the lack of photos, we were hungry!

Everything was wonderful. Chicken, sides, cobbler. All were delicious. Had fried and Southern Roasted. Both were excellent. Will be returning on a regular basis. Thanks Gennie for a great lunch.

The best in the city. Country Fried Steak, mashed potatoes and white gravy, everything is spectacular. I love this place
I came to this spot back in July and placed an order for take out for myself and Thing One. We shared a meal and some sides. No fancy intro... let's get to it! Four Piece meal- Fried chicken may be the quintessential and beloved of all comfort foods. At Ms. Gennie's, it's prepared in a pressure fryer which seals in moistness beneath a hot golden breading with a delightful crunch. Fun fact: The sound of biting into crispy fried chicken, by the way, has been scientifically proven to be an under-appreciated reason we find the experience of eating fried chicken so comforting. The chicken for this meal was tender and left nothing to be desired. Green Beans- These green beans were a little on the bland side. These could have used a dash of this or that. Garlic Mashed Potatoes- These potatoes were good as can be describes as creamy, buttery, rich in taste and nicely textured. #supportlocal

We had a delicious dinner here last night. Everyone was super friendly. They even have the old fashioned Dr. Pepper in glass bottles from back when I was a kid. Bonus for me. Cobbler was AMAZING!! Sorry I didn't get photos. But it is definitely worth it.

Just GREAT! I've been here twice and can't wait to return. I had lunch here today, and would go back for dinner. The chicken is fantastic, all the sides are amazing, and the folks are just lovely. If you haven't tried them yet, do yourself a favor.

Craving my new favorite meal at Ms. Gennies: Little Chicks Plate with a twist: 3 chicken tenders, garlic mashed potatoes w/ white gravy and topped w/ red chile (up charge for extra pour over but so worth it!) plus a fluffy biscuit. Yum!!

Wonderful place, service was excellent, chicken was blow your mind good... Cornbread was sweet which I prefer! Plus if you're feeling fancy get yourself their famous snow cones, you won't regret it ... Like they say, best chicken made fresh with family recipes...
