    Normally fantastic, but the outdoor patio is under construction - looks like it may take a while

Food: 3 Beef Carpaccio: Although there wasn't much acidity to balance the creamy and decadent taste, it somehow worked for this dish without making it too heavy. Piñon Crusted Sea Bass: The fish was perfectly cooked with a crispy top and flaky moist meat. The quinoa was unremarkable. Pan Seared Scallops: The dish comes with 3 well cooked scallops. The risotto was not very good. Bison Lasagna: This was a warm comfort dish but wasn't anything special. Braised Lamb Shank: Our friend got this dish and it was served cold. The flavor was good though. Fig & Honey Cheesecake was what we ordered but we got a standard cheesecake with pomegranate sprinkled on top. Although tasty, we weren't told that the cheesecake would be a different flavor. Service: 4 Our waitress was very nice and attentive but a little awkward. Ambiance: 3 We were in a private dining room so it's hard to judge for the rest of the restaurant, but it sounded quite loud whenever the door opened up for the servers to come in. The bar area by the hostess stand seemed like a nice place to get a drink and chat though.

One is the darker bar area but we were seated in a room full of full length windows that opened. I had a flight of their beers and enjoyed them all. For lunch I had their red chile bbq pork sandwich while my wife had the enchiladas. The food is a mix of Southern soul food and New Mexican standards. My wife actually preferred her food here over the well regarded New Mexican restaurant we went the previous day. I really liked my sandwich with its kiss of heat.

Only the other one in the South Valley (where we never go) has them. The tv commercials didn't say that. I did let the servers know this bc I felt it was false advertising. We got a Flight of 4 different beers and "settled" on a fried fish w salad which was ok and their grilled catfish tacos which you had to eat w a fork bc they were too messy to pick up w your fingers.. They tasted ok but the salsa and a pink sauce (?) helped to give them more flavor. The atmosphere was ok and the Friday evening crowd was arriving. We ate inside and our server, Sophia, was very good. It didn't take long to get our dinners except my partner's salad took forever! The salads are included w the meals. My salad was different and good which was a Blackeye pea, corn, & more ingredients. My experience there was disappointing since I wanted ribs and not "soggy" fish tacos. I might go back for the beer only.

    THE biggest hidden gem in Albuquerque. Get a reservation, go with the family, and enjoy yourself…read more The food is fresh, and the menu even tells you where it is sourced from. To take it one step farther, you can even walk in the gardens and see where some of your food is grown. Importantly, the food is insanely tasty. I split the salmon and barramundi, both of which were cooked to perfection and paired with FRESH sides. I could eat here every day of my life. The place is cute, mostly outdoor seating with a great view for sunset. Lots of fairy lights, adobe infrastructure - very ABQ. The menu rotates seasonally, but I am confident there is never a bad dish. Notably, they only serve beer and wine, no cocktails. Still, a great place for a night out, if a bit expensive.

    While in Albuquerque I cane to Farm & Table for an elegant dinner date. The experience was less…read morethan stellar. The weather permitted use to sit outside in the comforting blanket of mild sun shine. Service was slow and it took some time for someone to initially come to our table. I heard a few tables being offered to tour the area where some of the plants were being grown which was nice. That option was not extended to our table. The menu had a few vegetarian options that looked promising. I ordered barramundi and my wife ordered cavatelli which is a type of pasta. Complementary bread was brought out that tasted good but had too much salt on the crust. I didn't know but eventually found out that barramundi is a type of Asian sea bass. It was plated with a good amount of vegetables, but I found it to be bot a flavorful as I would have liked. I tasted the cavatelli and was not impressed either by the flavors. The drink section of the menu is a little confusing and we ended up with a grapefruit rosemary kombucha. The atmosphere was very nice and relaxing but I think the entrees were a bit over priced for what we received.

The soup was tasty, and the sandwich was pretty good- a little too much turkey for my taste. My husband had the mushroom peppercorn steak. It was cooked well, and he enjoyed the peppercorn sauce. One person had the steak salad. She said it was good, not great. The salad was served with large leaves of lettuce (she had to cut them up) and steak. She mentioned that she wished there was a little more to the salad- it was just the lettuce and steak. The last person in our party had the green chile chicken pasta. She liked it. Overall, our experience was good. I would say Tula's is fair. It's nothing to write home about, but it wasn't bad.

They do have a very nice patio but I was eating inside in lieu of out in the 95 degree heat and flies. I mentioned it to my very sweet server and she got me a battery fan to put on my table to shoo flies! (See pic) I ordered their wonderful Reuben w Caesar side and ate it with the fan shooing the flies while I ate inside. Seriously!! I did let her know the homemade croutons were stale and tough and not very edible. Service, food and drinks here are always very good and polite. I'll be back but not when the outside summer flies are taking over.

    We returned to Vintage after several years, expecting a solid experience, but left disappointed…read more The beet salad was particularly underwhelming. The portion of beets was minimal, cut into very small pieces, and lacked any noticeable seasoning or marinade. The dish was dominated by large, bitter arugula leaves rather than a balanced mix, with very little cheese and no nuts as expected. The overall flavor was flat, with an odd emphasis on dried fruit that didn't help the dish. The quinoa salad was similarly unbalanced, consisting mostly of plain, unseasoned quinoa with very little else. Adding chicken helped slightly, and it was at least moist, but it had very little flavor. Table service in the bar area appeared stretched thin. We had to flag down our server to clear the table and request the check. After receiving the bill, we waited about 15 minutes before ultimately getting up to find her. The ambiance was very nice, which brings this to 2 stars. If not for that and the clean bathrooms, this would have been a 1-star experience.
