Absolutely gorgeous food. Couldn't fault it! A must for any Breaking Bad fans. Plenty of photo opportunities
Wow, this place is so clean! I don't know what's in that chicken, but it always makes me wired after. It tastes so good! I saw my neighbor there the other day. He is bald but wears a black hat. He always seems a bit paranoid and stressed. Gus makes everyone feel at home, and he is so polite, but there is something wrong with half his face. At least that guy in the wheelchair stopped coming here. That old geezer wouldn't stop ringing the bell on his chair. Eat here! Enjoy everything they have on and off the menu.
On the one hand, I have never been to a twisters even though I moved to this state 4 years ago. On the other hand, I am a Breaking Bad fan and figured if I was going to try them, I had to go to the one from the show. Yes, it still looks like it did on TV (mostly) , although it has some added spots for fans- such as a corner with a guest book and large photos on the wall and a cutout where you can be Walt or Jesse on the couch in a the hazmat suit (while eating twisters) if you stick your head in. Overall, it felt a little surreal to be there as it was dead empty other than an employee eatting before leaving and someone else who left a (small) mess at the table that's under a piece of paper calling it Walt's booth. Place was clean, music was annoying and loud and coming from only 1 speaker, and the food... I got their chicken sandwich, whatever it's called, and it was hot, freshly made, and actually looked better than the picture on the menu. While this location is a little out of the way, I can only hope that other Twisters locations are just as good.
Gus Fring, the owner and on duty manager, constantly provides the utmost quality food to his customers; that and meth but the food is great and he treats his staff with respect. I believe Lyle has upper management written all over his face....
It looks like a ordinary chicken restaurant at first But inside is better then Chick FL A Popeyes or KFC, The spices the spice the sauce everything is perfect I once Met the owner in 1997 the actual owner Gustavo Abogado Fring he taught me how chicken is made so precise and not so cripsy but not to crunchy i worked for him since 2001 and lyle the manager was no social butterfly But still not mean Sadly i had to leave in 2008 my cousin had got sick and you know what gus paid for my cousins medical treatment he just amazed me how considerate of other people he was 10/10 5/5* sorry KFC you are going out of business
Aw man, this place is the BOMB! Best place to get fried chicken and fries in ABQ. Period. Get anything on the menu. Seriously, anything. Their secret ingredient must be meth or something, it's so ADDICTIVE. I would eat here every day if I didn't have to watch my waistline. I have seen everyone here: grandmothers, dog trainers, athletes, seriously, anyone and everyone. Even ran into my high school chemistry teacher here once. Tried to say hi to him but he looked sickly, agitated, and blew me off; looked like he was waiting pretty intently for something or someone. Maybe they were taking a long time to make his food. I haven't had that problem of waiting a long time for food, even when they're busy. I had to dock a star because there was an incident when I was here a few weeks ago in which two thugs came in looking for Gus Fring, the owner. Must've been something really personal because they took to intimidating me and the rest of the customers and staff. It was a scary, almost hostage situation, but thank God the customers were eventually allowed to leave. Mr. Fring personally contacted me, and I'm sure the other customers, with a sincere apology, offer to pay for PTSD counseling if I want to talk to someone about it, and vouchers for free food for a year. Goodbye, waistline! I thought he handled the situation so professionally, but shame on those men for disrupting his business! Plus he is a huge sponsor of local charitable organizations, like programs to keep kids off drugs. I really like this man's spirit of generosity and his business model! Hey, this is the one thing that even APD and local criminals can come together to agree on: KILLER fried chicken and fries TO DIE FOR!
Walter White's favorite joint. RIP Sr. Gustavo Fring. God bless the chicken game. "Better call Saul."
Gus Fring was a dear friend who worked behind the counter at Los Pollos Hermanos. There was a time I stopped by with my buddy Jesse Pinkman and we ordered the regular double breast, double mash. The three of us got to talking about things going on in our lives. Gus was calm, cool and collected and seemed to know the answer to everything. Jesse on the other hand was a little more intense and was trying to convince me that I was a blowfish or something. I was bitching and complaining about how hard we work for those we love but they don't seem to appreciate all those hours we spend cooking in the lab. Gus gave me some very sage advice: "When you have children, you always have family. They will always be your priority, your responsibility. And a man, a man provides. And he does it even when he's not appreciated or respected or even loved. He simply bears up and he does it. Because he's a man." I was waiting to hear more but Jesse got a call from some guy named Walter that seemed to agitate him so we had to bounce. That was the last time I saw Gus. Sadly he was a victim of terrorism during a visit to his friend Tio Salamanca at the old folks home. I don't believe all those stories about him being a crystal methamphetamine distributor. Los Pollos Hermanos - come for the chicken, stay for the company!
