    Tully's Italian Deli - The Carmela - really drippy

    You know, when a deli that serves sandwiches has a line clear outside the door by 11:15 AM, there…read moreis probably a good reason. That is why we always arrive by 10:30. Seriously, Tully's is a great place to get lunch, pick up ready-made meals to take home, indulge in sweets, or listen to opera (did he just say opera?). Yes, opera with real Italian dinners ... stay tuned to their social media for the dates. We love coming here for all of the above. Great food, counter service, and sufficient tchotchkes to keep you entertained. Our highest possible recommendation. Come on down; we promise you'll like it. P.S. Try the Joe DiMaggio - it's terrific, and we're comin' back. Click the YouTube link below to see what we ate. https://youtu.be/4LotIHxltYo?si=e7Pz1JCTQ8iOpZQK

    I've been going here for almost 40 years - not sure what it's going to take to get it through my…read morehead that Tully's just isn't to my taste. Over the years I keep going back, about once a year: I've had their sandwiches, their pastries, their pies . . . all kinda "meh" and all priced pretty reasonably but not inexpensively. Sandwiches give you a lot of everything . . . except flavor. Pastries are . . . fine. Pies are . . . fine, and kinda small (and not inexpensive, maybe reaching towards pricey); it's the kinda thing you are willing to pay for in order to bring it to a gathering, only to find almost no one bothers to eat it. And so you don't bother. The cookies are pretty good, actually. (And, yes, I know Italian delis - my Italian grandparents brought me to them in New York when I was a child. However, I'm not judging Tully's against these (as in "it's not as good as Back East"), I'm just saying it never really turns my crank.) Today I had a hot chicken, cheese,onion and pepper sandwich, the Carmela. It was a lot of food. But . . . not a lot of flavor. A whole lot of drippy mess in the bottom of my basket, though: water absolutely sopped through the (completely unmemorable tasting) bread loaf and pooled at the bottom of my basket as I ate in. The potato salad served alongside was fine - like what you'd get at Albertson's. The chicken was tender and . . . essentially without flavor, not even salt. There had clearly been a little marinade (I could sense some oregano and maybe garlic in there) but man could this thing have used about five times as much seasoning and then a healthy dose of a vinegar/garlic/oregano dressing on top of it. Bland. Lots of food in that $17 (almost $25 with tip) sandwich, but not a lot of enjoyment. I've had other Tully's sandwiches (both for here and to-go) that were better, but I can't really recall any of them . . . and I _never_ rush back. Like I said, this is a place I think about ("Hey, I'm right nearby; I should try Tully's again!") about once a year . . . and then, meh. To be fair - I believe that I am pretty out in left field on this take: Tully's is popular and always hopping. Get here early unless you want to stand in line. I only had to wait about three minutes to order, but by the time I left at noon this Friday there was a line to order all the way from the counter to the door. In terms of the room, it's a deli. Reasonably well set out with a decent amount of seating set out well, as well as some outside seating that you might want to try when it's not in the nineties. You order at the counter, pay, go get your own fountain drink (they also have some beer and wine, which they will serve you), find a seat and they'll bring it to you. When you're done, you bus it yourself. Pleasant staff - I don't regret tipping, although they don't do much. (As others have mentioned, if you get a cup of water, Tully's generously gives you a decent sized Solo cup - another plus.) It's fine. If you go, at least get yourself some cookies - they're pretty good.

    Antiquity Restaurant - Special Salad

    For our 20th anniversary, we were looking for more than just a great steak dinner, we wanted an…read moreexperience. After several locals recommended Antiquity, we quickly learned why reservations are so hard to come by. We couldn't secure a table on our actual anniversary, but managed to get one a couple of nights later, and it was well worth the wait. From the outside, Antiquity is understated. Step inside, however, and you're immediately welcomed into a warm, intimate atmosphere that feels like a hidden gem tucked away in Old Town Albuquerque. Owner Steve, who has been running the restaurant for nearly three decades, greeted us personally. His passion for hospitality was evident from the moment we arrived. While we waited briefly for our table, he took time to learn about us, ask what types of food we enjoy, and offer thoughtful menu recommendations. The restaurant itself is charming and authentic, with an old-world steakhouse feel that perfectly complements the historic New Mexico setting. Many of the tables and booths are arranged to create private, intimate dining spaces, making it an ideal choice for special occasions. We were touched when Steve seated us at what he called the "anniversary table," complete with a small scattering of heart confetti, despite our celebration having technically passed. Service throughout the evening was exceptional. Rather than relying on a single server, the entire staff worked seamlessly together. Water glasses were never less than half full, empty plates disappeared almost instantly, and every member of the team seemed genuinely invested in ensuring guests had a memorable experience. Even the kitchen staff engaged warmly with diners, adding to the welcoming atmosphere. As for the food, it exceeded every expectation. We started with oysters on the half shell, which my husband thoroughly enjoyed. I upgraded to the special salad, a beautiful combination of greens, apples, strawberries, mandarin oranges, walnuts, bacon, and a creamy mini brie, all brought together with a delicious pear vinaigrette. For our entrée, we chose the Châteaubriand for two. It was expertly prepared, carved tableside, and cooked perfectly. Every recommendation we received was spot-on, and the meal was so impressive that before leaving, I made another reservation for later that week just so I could return and try more of the menu before our trip ended. Antiquity offers beer and wine rather than a full bar, which was perfectly fine for us and fit the restaurant's classic, understated character. This is not an inexpensive dinner, nor should it be. What you're paying for is exceptional food, genuine hospitality, flawless service, and an atmosphere that is increasingly difficult to find. Antiquity doesn't simply serve dinner, it creates an experience. If you're visiting Albuquerque and looking for a memorable meal, especially for a special occasion, this restaurant deserves a spot at the very top of your list.

Really excellent food, everyone enjoyed their dishes immensely. The Not so Great: They were out of the wines we tried to order - all 3 that we tried to order off the menu, none of which were crossed off (dozens were already blacked out). We finally stopped trying to pick what we wanted and just asked for a suggestion out of what they actually had in-stock, that was similar to what we asked for off the menu that they didn't have. We wound up spending more than what we had originally selected, but the wine was good. It's unclear why they're out of 60% or more of the wines on their menu. They said something about "switching over", whatever that means (from what to what?). They should just print a new menu with what they actually have, not play this game where you try to guess what they might not be out of, that's dumb. Even if it's just a couple of pages of wines that they really have, that's better than 6 pages of stuff that isn't avaialable. Service was mixed, our waiter Shawn was great, but there were other issues, below. The building has some deferred maintenance issues, the bench seat at our booth fell apart when we got up, stuff like that. The entry wasn't very welcoming, but the food was so good, it would make up for everything, except for this.... Now for the Really Bad: We told them about allergies at the table, but when I ordered the dessert crepe with cherries jubilee, I was instead served a crepe chock full of walnuts. Wrong dish, and I'm allergic to walnuts. It was rolled up and filled, so I thought maybe the cherries were inside. I took a bite and has an immediate effect. I spit out the bite (which is embarrassing to have to do at a restaurant with guests), but it was too late. It's not life threatening or anything, but I spent a very miserable night, as a result. I barely got an apology 'sorry they delivered the wrong dish', but no serious concern, and not a single penny off the bill. They didn't even take the charge off for the dessert that I didn't get the first time, and was unable to eat once they gave it to me, because my mouth was on fire. Our table of 4 spent about $400, so it seems like they could have done a little something for us. At least sincere concern, but it it existed, it was never expressed to me. On the way out, I spoke to the owner, who was standing out front (yelling at wait staff about when tables were clearing), and told him the situation. He literally said "what do you want me to do about it?" Well, Dude, something. But no, nothing. He said he will train the staff to be more careful. That seems like something that should have been done already, so this didn't happen to begin with. He said "I owe you one", but didn't take my name or any information for this future unnamed favor, didn't offer a gift certificate, or even a dessert to take home. It seems serving food the customer is allergic to should warrant some kind of acknowledgement. At least a free dessert, or a gift certificate to enjoy a future meal - one without an allergic reaction. Not sure if I'm going back. The food was so excellent, I may go back, but the other experience was very unhappy.
