“Good food, decent atmosphere, the staff are friendly and attentive. Be cautious in the bathroom. My daughter walked into the bathroom to find a half naked lady looking at herself in the mirrors. Not sure what the policy is with keeping your pants on in this establishment.“

“We have been dining here for breakfast for as long as they have served breakfast. Today I realized I had not done a review - which was a mistake. Now open at 8:30 AM seven days a week, you are really missing something by not watching for their specials. The initial specials were free breakfasts for the first fifty patrons. That lasted a month and they were the same breakfasts as on the standard menu. This past month, they have offered BOGO - again the same standard menu. The first few weeks of December (2025), we were told they will offer half-price breakfasts. We're coming back even after the specials are done with. Friendly service from a delightful staff. Some folks are put off by the sports bar ambiance for breakfast, but we don't mind since we arrive when they open and just ignore the numerous TV screens and music. Great place to enjoy a surprisingly good dining experience. I favor the Crab Cake Benedicts with beans instead of the papitas. My wife really likes the Avcado Toast but with two eggs. Highly recommended.“

“This must be a hidden gem in Albuquerque-great food and atmosphere. You don’t have to be a golfer to enjoy this place!“

“The venue claims to be accommodating for ADA requirements. And while they may be, it truly is not accommodating. I contacted the venue months in advance to our concert to confirm the accommodations. I was told that we would be upstairs on the balcony, that this was the designated area for ADA. But upon arriving to the venue. We were advised otherwise. The seats were set up under the balcony, nearly midway to the back of the venue. Tucked in a small corner. There was no way we would be able to see over the people standing infront of us. The "landlord" was incredibly rude and told multiple people that he was "sorry his employees don't know everything " yet multiple people were told the same information we were. He told multiple people if they weren't happy with how they could "cater" to us, that they could get a refund and leave. he even said that my mother, in a wheelchair could sit against the barricade and that he didnt care. while other venues advised this was not legally safe. The band was incredible. The venue staff and the landlord had zero disregard for their disabled guests. Very disappointed in the venue and lack of proper accommodations. I will never be returning“

“Greg was incredibly attentive and welcoming, even though we only ordered water and fries since we planned to eat elsewhere after our session. He never made us feel rushed or unwelcome — instead, he remained genuinely hospitable and accommodating the entire time.“

“I have wanted to give this place a try for years. My fiancée and I like to go around town to different bars on the weekends. So far this has been our favorite place. The live music and the energy of the crowd was awesome! Definitely going t0 be back. Great service as well!“

“Was a little frustrated at first when we walked in and weren’t greeted and had to wait about five minutes to be helped/seated. our server turned our experience around with The energy and kindness from Nevaeh! She brings positive attitude! Hearing her talk to other customers around us, her customer service really stands out! Thank you Nevaeha!!!“

“Desiree is incredible and she makes sure we always have what we need!!“

“Bartenders here are always on top of their work and very attentive. I've been coming here since it opened and this is my number one spot to go to in Bernalillo!!! Love the staff!! Lisa is the best!! I also wanted to add Angie she is a very good server along with bartending,very attentive and doesn't make the customer wait.“

“The host with blonde hair & glasses was amazing. She was kind and at first she sat us in a spot where i couldn't really see the game ( i had my sport shirt on) and she came back around and found us an amazing spot without us asking. our server was also very kind and we didnt feel rushed at all. A good first time experience! (the nachos are huge)“

“I tried the new Sesame Salmon bowl. It was delicious! I dine at this Applebee's at Coors & Quail a couple times a month. Joey is the best server at this restaurant, hands down. Friendly, professional and knowledgeable. She always suggests different entrees and drink specials and knows the menu well.“

“Stopped by Hooter for the first time on February 4th at about 7 PM. The environment was lively, the food was enjoyable, and the music was great. Shoutout to Selena for her wonderful service and for patiently explaining the menu items and deals.“

“Great spot in Albuquerque for a night out! The arcade has a massive selection of games, and we had a blast taking advantage of the half-price Wednesday deal. The wings were hot and fresh, and our server Kasmira was incredibly attentive even though it was busy. No drink was empty and no plate left unattended! The manager Nader leads by example going above and beyond in customer service and keeping his location spotless by helping his team on the floor! Overall, a fantastic place to eat, drink, and play! Bet… I’ll be back!“

“First time here, Marcos the manger on shift was extra patient with us while we played the bar games. Audrey made some great drinks. The drinks were amazing and very reasonably price. Also had the World Cup going. Definitely wasn’t expecting anything special when we walked in but the staff and the prices were more than a reason to return.“

“Clean, great service, and nice pool tables!“

“Bonito lugar para comer 🍽️ en familia lo recomiendo 💯 por ciento 🤗🍕🍻“
