History
The restaurant was started as a small family-owned restaurant in 1969. Since then, it has expanded into a chain of restaurants.[5] The chain ran into financial trouble in 2011, filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy, then was purchased by Southwest Brands.[6] Afterward several of the locations closed, including the Las Vegas Valley location.[7][8] Garduño's has opened new locations in the Albuquerque area.[9]
Specialties
Garduño's is known for featuring large plates of Mexican and New Mexican foods, as well as large margaritas and various alcohols.[10][11]
