Artichoke Cafe is one of Albuquerque’s finest restaurants. The food is fresh and artfully presented. The ambience is warm and cozy and the staff is friendly and unpretentious. It’s a lively place, but the noise level doesn’t suppress conversation. Excellent cocktails, adequate wine list

We made reservations. We were seated quickly. The place was completely booked. Our server was lovely. Answered all our menu questions. Dinner didn't take as long as I expected, with the crowd. Pleasant surprised. The food was fabulous!

Ordered the green chili cheeseburger from the very limited lunch menu. Fries were burnt, the chili had no heat and the hamburger meat was tasteless. The potato bun was not toasted so it all fell apart. Bartender was great and the drink was good. For $18, I would expect a better burger though.

Driven by this place dozens of times & have no clue why I haven’t stopped in. Our daughter & her friends recommended it. 10/10 would recommend! It was DELIGHTFUL! Started with a lavender margarita & fried artichoke. For the main, I got the pork chop served over peaches & cabbage. (I haven’t stopped thinking about that chop since … 😋) My sister got the sea bass, also scrumptious. We ended the meal splitting a chocolate torte. Can’t wait to come back & dive a little deeper into the menu.

Good food. Pricey. Wait staff very nice/attentive. Male manager did not acknowledge nor approach our table. Watched him mingle with other guests.

We were passing through town. Stopped for dinner. Great service. They had a parking lot so parking was easy. Didn't have a reservation and we were seated at the bar without any wait. Noemi served us. She was great help, had good recommendations and was still able to keep up with all her orders. I highly recommend eating here. Atmosphere is good. I would come again.

The Artichoke Café has the formula. A highly desirable venue for creative, fresh, trendy food selections worthy of a James Beard nomination. The service is friendly, knowledgeable and dedicated to making your experience a pleasant one. This very clean restaurant has a Las Vegas vibe providing “just the right” level of volume to of music to allow for good conversation. The highly skilled bartender will expertly provide you with original house -inspired cocktials. A great choice for a dating couple or visiting with a number of friends. The entrees are pace-setting, service is happily provided, pricing is reasonable, all the checkboxes are checked…a real gem of a find !
Good food good experience
