Spectators Sports Bar & Grill

This is a very nice corner sports bar.I had a sweet and spicy chicken sandwich with few drinks. The food was really good and drinks are reasonably priced. Elena and Lia are always helpful from the bar , smiling and calling your name as soon as you enter ! In general, it is a hidden gem in Albuquerque that you should try. Fridays afternoon, may be very crowded with locals that new customers may not be able to find a seat or get a service ( believe me! it is packed all the way), but other times, all goes smoothly.

Service is awful. Very specific rules that I have never heard of at any other bar. You can’t be served more than one drink at a time and I need to have 30 minutes between any shot I drink? Very strange and impossible to catch a buzz. Oh and I couldn’t do 2 separate drinks but I could make it a double no problem? I’m confused by the rules. And with how slow and incompetent the servers are, it’s very inconvenient to only get one drink at a time. Only good thing is the karaoke minus how ridiculously loud the room is

Went at 8pm because they said Karaoke started then but they didn't start till 930pm and that's the only reason we went so my kids can sing for an hour for karaoke while we had a drink but they still kicked us out at 10pm even though they started late... horrible on times...

My family and I have been coming here for YEARS, but service and quality of food has gone down. This isn’t just the first occur of poor service. I was happy to see the server in training use pen and paper to take orders, the server training didn’t and messed up serval orders. Worst of all the channel was changed during the last few minutes of the game we were watching. No employee was around to change the channel, I believe a friend of a server tried helping to change the channel but still we missed the ending of our game.

Fun place for karaoke on Fridays and Saturdays, Love Kammo Karaoke (**Live Mic Karaoke*** MY BAD!)

Great drinks, Creamy green Chili chicken enchiladas are delicious, you won't be disappointed. See any game you want to. Homey feeling.

I was very disappointed. I looked forward to the big Lobos basketball game (Utah State at UNM) for weeks. But apparently Spectators doesn’t consider themselves a sports bar – because they wouldn’t turn the volume on. They just left the music radio on. They didn’t even appear to know that it was a huge game for first place in The Mountain West – or just didn’t care. The Manager told me it was on in “the other room.” But when I checked, it wasn’t on there either. I’m betting they had the volume on for the Super Bowl (or maybe not). I won’t be going back there in the future.

Still one of the best places to hang and catch your favorite games.$4 Beer. Food was delish! Loved the Fried Ice Cream too. Service impeccable! Will be back!

The best boneless wings in town! They're like mini chicken tenders. I recommend the habanero ranch dry rub. We've also had the sliders & the green Chile chicken soup. Everything has been good so far!

Worst place ever and they say eat local and shop local places sucked no staff rude and lazy!!!!

Sorry guys I'm a total foody!!!

RIBS 1 word says it all!!!!

!!!!!! RIBS !!!!!!!!

FALL OFF THE BONE YUMMNESS!!!!

BEWARE! The woman bartenders are beyond rude if you are a pretty female. Im African American and they 86’d me 2 yrs ago and it’s definitely giving “we don’t serve your kind” type of energy… and if you know albuquerque and this bar specifically than you’d know its literally impossible to get 86d from anywhere much less for 2yrs with no explanation… again i’m African American and female… has anyone experienced subtle or outright discrimination or racism at this place??? Id love to hear your story bc Im feeling very confused and saddened by this whole experience.
