The food and service were excellent. The Sandia room had live music which made the evening even better! Thank you.

Do not understand why they charge convenience fee when they have already increased prices over the last 2 years. More work for staff to deal with cash then credit cards. Love the food but hate the convenience fee charges. I carry very little cash so must get cash before going there because I will nit post extra fee.

We usually dine on the patio at El Pinto, as it is one of the most beautiful patios in the city! The food was good, but be careful, as El Pinto doesn't seem to update their menu prices, so you may not pay what you think you are going to pay!

Food - there was plenty of it, but unfortunately it just wasn't good. With the exception of the sopapillas, those were delicious. Service was slow and once he dropped off the check, he was non-existent. He was polite and knew the menu well, perhaps he just had too many tables.

Father's day, shift change so we exercised patience. We had reservations and were seated within 5 minutes, but 40 minutes before our order was taken.

The food at El Pinto was amazing. I had family visit from NC and SC. This was their first trip to NM. They enjoyed their food and loved the vibe at El Pinto. 💜

absolutely great New Mexican food, choice of hot or mild red or green, we had Tony as our server he was very prompt to fill my iced tea and very helpful. A really great place to go.

It was date night and we had a wonderful time! I was able to be a Mai Tai and truly enjoyed every last sip. The guac and chips was excellent as were our red chile ribs and loaded potato dinners. What a lovely, smooth evening! We even had two sightings are a cute, grey cat. We highly recommend El Pinto!

El Pinto was very busy Saturday during a time of proms in Albuquerque. Despite the nonstop pace, our server, Michael did an amazing job! I want to commend his attitude and kindness despite his stressful work pace. He also was meticulous to all the details of our dining orders. Five stars :)!

Every aspect of the experience was excellent except the reception area which is unwelcoming and completely disorganized. Once you are past the reception area it is great.

For a change, I dined at El Pinto during the week for a lunch out with my mom. The weather was ideal out on their patio. Our server, Claudia helped me practice my Spanish and she did a perfect job supporting our dining experience :-).

The food the service in the atmosphere are unmatched. Wonderful place to eat while visiting Albuquerque. We will definitely make plans to come back next time we're in this area.

I ate here and there was a cockroach in my posóle! Food was terrible and they tried to charge me $8 more than they should have and didn't even apologize when I corrected them, seemed mad that I'd caught them trying to rip me off! I'll never go there again and you shouldn't either!

We were here with family from out of town and we had a great time. The service was excellent, the food ( I had the red chile ribs) was amazing, and the margaritas were very smooth. It has been a while since we'd been here because its a bit far from my house but we had a great experience and we will be back!
