“Good service, the food is delicious, the ceviche is very fresh and has good flavor! The people are very friendly and with a good attitude and attention to the tables. The place looks clean and they have very good music! Excellent service from Miss Zoila!!“

“Seyant been to Seasons 52 before. It was really excellent fresh food. The salads are large and sharable. The potato leek soup was fabulous. The scallops were plentiful (6) but could have used a touch more seasoning. The server, Chris was attentive and excellent.“

“I deliver GrubHub for this restaurant and i love coming here everytime. The servers and managers are always polite & have a great attitude when servicing their customers AND drivers! Always a pleasure to be here!!! Highly recommend the food!!“

“Great experience, the food was outstanding, i tried the culantro and the poke restaurants, 100%recommendedDietary restrictions: They have gluten free food, people very helpful when u ask for specific itemsParking: Be ready to walk a little bit, i was surprised how many people lov this place. At first, i couldn't find a spot. I didn't wait any longer than 5 to find a spot“

“The food is amazing! It’s really authentic and just good clean eating. The food comes out a little slow and the service counter gets kind of backed up because of all of the to go orders waiting to be picked up, but they’re always friendly! The Baba ghanoush and the shawarma plate is to die for, also make sure you get some baklava after your meal! I would definitely recommend!“

“I love going to pf Chang's with my family, we always have a great time especially with the signature drinks. Our bartender Ian was very charismatic and made us the best cosmopolitan I've ever had. If you have a free weekend night you should absolutely grab some drinks with your friends!“

“Really wanted to love this place since we’ve been pescatarian since January but it was just OK. We went on Sunday for breakfast. At a bit after 9:00 there was a person wearing headphones setting up the outdoor tables. We went inside and looked at the menu while standing at the counter.Turns out the headphone-wearing person was also the one who would take our order. She asked if we were dining in. We said yes. She said there were outdoor tables but the inside tables weren’t ready. We said we’d wait for one of the 3 or 4 inside tables because they just needed to take the chairs down and wipe them off. She didn’t make haste to ready the table.I had the blue corn waffle (I love the blue corn waffles across the street at the IPCC’s restaurant). This waffle was much denser than I expected — it was difficult to cut with a fork. The flavor was good.My wife had the avocado toast. She said the bread was very tasty.A little better hospitality would help a lot. The prices run on the high side. We’re OK with that and pay that frequently when we go out. It’s usually accompanied by friendly attentive service though.We’ll try again. Hoping that this is just a new venture working out the kinks of starting up.“

“We are a family of two grandparents, one grandson and his two 8 year old twin (fraternal) boys and six yo. girl. we go there often and enjoy the food greatly! Great food and great friendly service! Very clean restaurant! It is usually packed with returning people and working class people. They are never without customers as people know a good place to eat and sometimes you may have a wait! But it is worth the wait! Vic is in and out but greeting his people! God has blessed this man and his business! Tom & Sue Ralston“

“This is fast becoming my favorite hangout! The food is amazing, you can borrow and play games or bring your own to play, and the staff is super friendly! It's like hanging out at a friend's house with lots of like-minded people. ?“

“WOW!!! This place is amazing!!! My husband is what I call a “food snob”, and he absolutely loved this place!! He got the Chicken Breast Mole and he said, “Wow! It’s like I’m eating this in someone’s kitchen”. Meaning, It’s authentic, flavorful and oh so DELICIOUS!!!! I ordered the Pizzabirirria and it was INCREDIBLE!! Such a large portion, so filling and the dipping broth that comes with is divine! You can easily share a pizzabirirria between two people. I had to take half of it with me.We were just passing through on our way to Texas and my husband wanted authentic Mexican food and so I turned to Google. After reading so many 5 star review for this restaurant, we decided to give it a try. And this place did not disappoint!!! We are so glad we stopped here! The waiter was very very friendly, the food came out pretty quickly and the horchata was delicious. It tasted like honey milk. You can tell it is a favorite place of the locals because there was a huge line for take out, along with a full restaurant. I highly recommend this place if you’re looking for authentic and delicious Mexican food!“

“In the mood for plantains, @google AI led us to Havana Restaurant, a highly savory restaurant located in a very unassuming strip mall. Hubby got chicken, and I pork platters with plantains (my soul food) and rice and beans. Everything was so flavorful. Also, we tasted "Ironbeer" a nonalcoholic soda that reminded me of Sicilian Chinotto. The dining room and bathroom were immaculate and the waitress was sweet as a button (I got my meal based on her recommendation). Definitely a 5/5! We will return at some point #gourmetrecovery #saturday #albuquerquerestaurant“

“Happy Songkran Festival here at Thai Vegan! Shrimp Spinach Noodle (2 orders), Oad Thai (2), House Salad, Spicy Eggplant, 4 Thai Iced Tea, 1 Chrysanthemum Tea, was exquisite, pretty display, ample portions, very good-tasting. I loved the flavors of lemongrass, ginger, sauces, most excellent. May the Kingdom of Siam be blessed. Much blessings to Thai Vegan! My friends were very very happy during three (3) hour lunch. It was most relaxing, great conversation. I want to move to Bangkok, Thailand but this food changes my mind! We have the best Thai food in America!“

“Stopped at La Reforma during a business trip and came away very impressed. Great food, drinks and vibes. Service was also outstanding. Even during peak hours my waitress was very attentive. The food was perfect. Had the carne asada torta and it was probably one of the best ones I’ve ever had (I’ve had many). Perfectly cooked and very filling. Those chefs know what they’re doing. Topped it off with a Golden West IPA - delicious. Can’t wait to be return!“

“This place is hella good! I ordered the steak sandwich, and it was real slices of steak and the perfect amount of saltiness. My friends ordered the cheeseburger and the fried chicken sandwich, all super tastey!!! I ordered a margarita and it was also really good! Our server, Albert, was really nice too. I will be back! Only in town for a month lol.“

“Unassuming gem in the southeast near the Air Force Base and VA hospital. The flavor and spice combinations are like nothing you've ever had and they are amazing! You MUST try it to experience what my words defy. You must get there early because a line forms at lunch time. You will thank me later.“

“Pleasantly surprised by how good this place was. The service was probably the best I’ve had at any restaurant here in America. The place is family run with everything made from scratch. The staff is ridiculously friendly and made it a point to make us feel welcome. The food tastes really good as well. We had the chicken kolhapuri, chicken biriyani and the vada pav. This’d be the first place I visit the next time I’m in Abq“

“It's an old, local eatery. The service was great. We enjoyed the food. You're going to get honest, simple, unpretentious fare. Don't expect a Michelin star or silver service. This is the place locals go for an easy meal.Parking: There is free parking at the restaurant. There may be additional street parking nearby.“

“There are a lot of craft breweries in Albuquerque, enough to call this the Asheville of the west. And of these, there are some amazing exemplars of how beer should be brewed. But it is a select few that I consider my go-to breweries, places I return to over and over because their beer is so good, their atmosphere and vibe so attractive, their mission so compelling.Bombs Away Beer Company is one of those select few. Located on the City’s east side and a couple of blocks off Route 66, it is veteran-owned, which automatically earns my high respect. The name and theme are derivative of that fact, and played well.My most recent visit was for a breweriana swap meet one Saturday, which was held outdoors in the beer garden. Naturally, we all had to come inside to grab a few. My two pints were the BABC IPA (6.1% ABV; 91 IBU) and Operation Single Hop Pale Ale (5.3% ABV; 55 IBU). Both were very approachable, even the BABC with its high IBU.There’s no reason for that twisted beer face you sometimes give when the hops are overpowering. These were both pleasing the palate, and easy to drink. The mid-range ABV is also laudable, because too many IPAs seem to be duking it out for which one can get people tipsy the fasted.On other visits I have had their Actuator IPA (6.4% ABV; 100 IBU), Hazy Chain DIPA (8% ABV; 76 IBU), MK2 Pale Ale (5.9% ABV; 55 IBU), and Anniversary IPA (7% ABV; 87 IBU). I can vouch for each of these as well. And for fans keeping score at home, that’s four IPAs and two Pale Ales, which should pigeon-hole me on the beer fan scale.Given the theme, Bombs Away attracts veterans and a primarily blue-collar clientele, not the hipsters and YUPPIES you would find at other craft breweries. Each has their place, but I am a fan of all breweries, comfortable in any environment as long as the beer is good.And it is damn good at Bombs Away. I salute you.“

“I love coming to this every time my husband and I are in Albuquerque. We live in Belen. This place is always clean and the servers are always welcoming and friendly. You don’t have to wait long for your food. You will not be disappointed.Wheelchair accessibility: Very accessible“

“Very nice place! Good food, good quantity for the price and lots to look at! There was a line but it moves fast. So fast I didn't get to read everything before it was our turn. Parking lot and street parking ok but had to look for a few minutes. Will go again.“

“My first time I enjoyed it so much that I brought my husband tonight and he loved it so much that we are giving it five ⭐'s all the way around. Thank you. It's so hard to find a place with delicious, tasty food and amazing service nowadays. Keep doing what you're doing.“

“I've been eating at padillas for decades and we'll have to say that the food has been very consistent over that time and it's always delicious. If you're not a fan of onions then my suggestion is your tell your waiter or waitress to hold the onions because they're very liberal and the amount of onion they put on your food, I don't like onion. The tamales are very good probably the best in Albuquerque and the blue corn chicken enchiladas are also just very delicious.“

“Superb service. Food that looked as good as it tasted. A full breakfast menu. There was one gluten free item: a large oatmeal pancake with fruit on the top, a blueberry sauce and maple syrup on the side. There was a long wait to get in, but you can check in online to reserve a spot in line. The app will tell you what the wait is and message you when the time is up.“

“I stopped in to try this out because I've been trying to explore the non hill area more, they have a great selection of food and everything tasted great! The front of house service was alright, nothing crazy but the people that run it seem to be there every single day so no negative points for grinding it out like that. When I was sitting at the table enjoying my food the ambiance kind of made me feel like I was in a modern painting of a man enjoying food and the view of the city at night lol overall great experience will be back to try more“

“Dine in | Breakfast | $10–20 Cafe Lush is a gem of a restaurant. The menu is full of interesting twists on foodie favorites, and many dishes can be made gluten-free and/or vegan. We are vegan and came for breakfast. Even though we didn’t see mention of vegan cheese on the menu, they have it - along with well prepared tofu - and were very accommodating to our dietary restrictions. Our dishes were so delicious as were the Lush Lattes, which are a work of art. Amy and Rebecca are great! They are personable and fun, and made our dining experience pleasurable. We come to Albuquerque from Santa Fe periodically and will be looking forward to many more wonderful meals at Cafe Lush.“

“Excellent experience! We'd been once before, and we chose them for our anniversary dinner. There was a small problem with the dinner, but the owner immediately addressed the issue and the meal and wine were wonderful. Very happy with the experience. Prime rib was superb, cobbler delicious. The staff was exactly right level of attention... every need met, but not intrusive at all. Will dine here again, 10/10.“

“We live 5 minutes from this place and just barely are trying it. It easily has become our new favorite. The food is delicious - literally everything. The wings are some of the best I've ever had. And the pizza is amazing. Such a cute vibe as well and also a great place to watch a baseball game. The staff is also so so friendly and attentive. We really love it here and plan to be back regularly.“

“Stopped in today with one of my suppliers. He frequents the restaurant though it was my first time. Menu had a lot of gems on it but when I saw the Monte Cristo I was done debating on what to eat. Food came out pretty quickly, and the service was fair. It was after the rush so I expected a bit better service since it wasn't busy. The food was pretty good. 3/5 on Monte Cristos I have eaten before. I think the big thing it lacked was the powdered sugar on the toast and real jam. It hand some weird fruit flavored syrup. Certainly worth the try but short from a traditional. With try something different next time I am in.“

“HUGE breakfast burritos! Great options for them and very tasty. Jerky is also top tier. Highly recommended anything here. Staff you order with could be more friendly but the Owner/Manager is always there and always willing to go the extra mile for his customers. Super friendly and great with kids as well!“

“I went here for an event and was not sure what to expect. I found it to be welcoming, non judgmental, and I felt at home. I stayed longer than I intended because they had such a good vibe going on there. I loved seeing dogs sitting around. There was a band casually playing Irish music. The staff was approachable and friendly. I will be going back. I might make this my spot.“

“I've been visiting this restaurant for quite some time. The food is always good but the service has been hit or miss. My server Jayme set a new standard. She did an amazing job of taking care of our party. Her attention to detail and positive attitude is second to none. I'm looking forward to sitting in her section on my next visit!“

“Really nice ambience and excellent service. Food is great, serving sizes are very generous, really good selection of wines and cocktails for everyone's taste. Chicken and beef dishes were enjoyed by everyone. Sides were fine week and the presentation was good, would definitely recommend, not everyday as it is pricey but well worth the trip!“

“It was such a beautiful restaurant, I loved the atmosphere. The Family Pack is a great group meal, it's perfectly packed up with toppings and salsa options. The Chile Relleno Barbacoa burrito was delicious and the Agua Frescas were so good. Overall, great food at a good price; it's well worth it.“

“Great service and really good food. The only gripe I had was they need to toast their garlic bread a bit more.Wheelchair accessibility: My companion uses a wheelchair and could not use the disability stall because the door goes in, not out.“

“At a conference and looking for a steak dinner. I saw a photo online of High Noon’s food and decided to try it. The filet and veggie enchiladas that I saw online were of the highest quality, as was Chantel’s service. 5 star food and service without 5 star prices!“

“Let me put y’all on FAM when I say this place is a 10 out of 10 it is a 10 out of 10 food made fresh 10 out of 10 price of food 10 out of 10 atmosphere, 10 out of 10 customer service 10 out of 10 shout out to Sarah Ruthie, and oriah best customer experience I’ve had in a while. I cannot say enough about this place. It was amazing. I had the Por Vida burrito which has ground beef with potato beans wrapped in a homemade tortilla top that with fries, chili con, queso, red and green chili OMG, the best thing ever my buddy had the burrito plate with chicken and let me tell you the chicken was well seasoned and very juicy not dry at all, the salsa was absolutely amazing fresh cut ingredients chunky not blended exactly the kind of salsa I like with the little bit of heat just all around this place is amazing. Shout out to y’all for the great experience. This is one of my favorite places highly recommend. I will be back again and again and again. Oh don’t forget about all the fresh tortillas made fresh daily fresh made corn tortillas fresh chips, Chicharrón taco shells. I did buy me some taco shells to make tacos for dinner. They also hook me up with some extra salsa for my tacos and hook me up with some guacamole oh, and the guacamole is amazing, they have so much stuff. I’m telling y’all check it out for yourself FAM. You will not be disappointed.“

“Food was great, I got stared at by a homeless guy while I ate through the glass windows and the staff didn’t do anything and actually one of the restaurant patrons went to chase him off. My mom thanked the lady taking plates away and the lady never said anything back. One of the weirdest dining experiences of my life but the lamb was amazing, would recommend to anyone.“

“It's time for another Albuquerque restaurant review ... and the biggest takeaway from today's experience is "unexpected at every turn." This cute little restaurant is located in a "hip" area, and is bigger inside than it looks outside. Mazaya Cafe #mazayacafealbuquerque was recommended by google after looking up "Falafel." This place advertises itself as "Mediterranean Fusion"... so it begs to question: Fused with what? Mark and I spent the meal trying to figure that out ! (Turns out it's a blend of cuisines including Greek, Lebanese, and others!). The owners are from Nepal. I've eaten plenty of falafel in my days, so when I go to a new restaurant, I always make it a habit to order them ;-). These were nice and crispy on the outside but remained tender on the inside. Shawarma (chicken) was where we experienced the "Fusion" part. This one had raisins and other complementary spices (I believe I tasted cinnamon and coriander but ... please, please don't hold me to that!). The decor was also blended. The waiter was attentive and our experience was absolute delightful! Definitely a 5/5 in my book ;-). Bonus game: does anyone want to hazard a guess at what the pink thing is? #gourmetrecovery #abqrestaurant #foodreviews“

“This was an absolutely perfect new mexican food experience.Everything was delicious, large servings. Get the churro fries!I knew we were in for a good time when the line was out the door. Our pickup order took a little longer and the staff were super attentive making sure i was ok, got me a beer on the house while I waited.All around a must visit for anyone wanting a NM food experience in ABQ.“

“We eat breakfast here on a busy Saturday morning after walking out of Millys for no service. The food was fantastic as well as the server. We told her about our experience at Milly's and she was apologetic for something not in her control. She made up with a great attitude and service. More important was the smile on her face.We had breakfast enchiladas. They were so yummy!“

“Breakfast was really yummy at this place. Lots of costumers but the servers were really fast and welcoming. My daughter and I ordered the Grandma's biscuits and it was really good. Their food is very authentic. Love the southwest decors.“

“Very easy to place an order by phone and order was done fast. We ordered various of stuff to go. Two pho, rare steak and beef ball slice; combination Fried Rice w/ chicken, cilantro, green onions, shrimp and pork sausage) and Jasmine Rice with Grilled Pork Chop, Sliced Pork Skin, and Fried Egg. The portions are good. Great taste, everything is well-seasoned. Combination fried rice comes with tons of meat. Pho soup is very soothing.“

“Wonderful taste of Costa Rica. If you want to try something new and unique to NM, this will not disappoint. We had some petacones as appetizers and it was so good. Service is better than amazing. And the atmosphere is what makes this place more than pleasant. Highly recommend!“

“The food was delicious and the selection was great. It's a beautiful establishment - so much greenery! The service was awesome, very fast. We were having a business birthday party, so it was around 11:45 when we got there. Very loud if there's things to be discussed but for something less business forward, the atmosphere is great. My only complaint is that just about every dish has some spice. I like spicy, but not necessarily on everything.Vegetarian options: Virtually non-existent vegetarian options.“

“I got a chicharron burrito (lunch style- meat, beans, onion and green chile). The other reviews that say they have big burritos are correct! This thing was ginormous! (Like the same size as a chipotle burrito!!).The burrito was great! Chile had perfect heat for this white boy ☺️ they give salsa too but I didn’t try it.Speedy service and lots of smiles. Great place to eat“

“Perfect! I have been New Mexican cuisine elsewhere. NOW, I am going to frequent this place where I can eat authentic Mexican cuisine. The other place I visited for years never claimed to be a Mexican restaurant. It is simply that Mexican is better than New Mexican. The food was delicious.“

“This is our new favorite spot! We have been here several times now and every time, the food is delicious, the staff is speedy and kind, and the restaurant is ambient and spotless. The lunch and dinner bento boxes are our favorite; we love the tempura and ginger salad that come with the choice of entree and rice, not to mention the choice of soup at the beginning- you really get a lot for what you pay! We also tried some sushi today for the first time and loved it, despite us both being a lil picky about sushi. Would highly recommend this spot for both casual and upscale occasions! We can’t wait to try more off the menu :)“

“The absolute best New Mexican & Mexican restaurant!! I used to live in Albuquerque and I would get the chicken Gorditas once a week. My family loves the enchiladas and burritos. Now that I live in the PNW I miss it so much. Whenever I travel to NM this is always a stop for me.“

“We hadn't been here in a while but were in the area killing time before another business opened. This was a Sunday morning around 11:15. It was fairly busy. Everything was excellent! We haven't been to a restaurant with service this good in a very long time. Our meals were very good and came quicker than expected. At almost every restaurant we frequent the service has greatly declined and we all seem to have become accustomed to that new normal. However on this day at this location it was exceptional. We will definitely make an effort to return again soon.“

“Was on the way back from a VA hospital appointment before lunch and stopped by with my wife at this small but authentic Mexican Food restaurant to dine in. I had the Machaca with eggs and she the stuffed sopapillia and both were delicious! There were a couple of folks dining in when we arrived and our food order came out quickly. By the time we were finished there were more folks trickling in. Overall a nice place to eat lunch, with good Mexican food at a reasonable price!“
