The food and drinks here are really good. Service was really fast and the inside is all around just comfy. My husband and his friend ordered the beer. They really liked it. I ordered bees knees which is really good. I also ordered a blueberry type drink taste of kind of like tea. I didn't really care for that one too much but it was still okay. I would probably order the bees knees again. The tortilla burger super tasty green. Chile was good. Meat was cooked well. I'll definitely be coming back here again and try other items. read more

Terrible. I just can't believe how bad this place was in so many ways. Where should I start? We ordered and split one Caesar salad and an "Ojo Caliente" pizza with pineapple, chicken and barbecue sauce. The salad managed to be overly garlicky yet bland, the lettuce leaves largely spoiled and the croutons were straight off Albertsons' shelf. Meanwhile, the pizza sauce was horribly sweet, the toppings seemed old and of low quality, and though the pizza had a good cracker crust, I prefer a thin sourdough. The place itself is rather run down and dirty, with greasy carpets and scraped up walls in the dining room and restrooms to match. On the good side, the beer was great, and the service was good. Our server kindly fixed the music--the same song playing repeatedly since we walked in--and even asked what kind of music we'd like. But now every time I hear "My Best Friend's Girl" by the Cars, I'll be reminded of bad pizza. read more

Turtle Mountain Brewing - South - An unfair picture of the leftover pizza that our cat refused. - New American Near Me - Rio Rancho, New Mexico

This review is for the brand new Enchanted Hills, Rio Rancho location. My husband and wet and I went there for the first time on a Saturday night 01/08 there was a 45 minute wait so we found two seats at the bar. (The bar was packed!) We just love the fact that to have this new brewery so close to home, we love the original location on Southern. Last night there was only pizza, calzones and salad available, as well as limited beer options. We were a little bit bummed out since we wanted anything other than pizza/salad LOL. We managed. :) I opted for a glass of wine which also had "limited choice" by the glass. Suggestion: perhaps a ciders on tap? Brewlab 101 has a delicious one called "drought" it tastes just like champagne!! So my first impression walking in is that it's open and bright with lots of bar area which we love! We also like the decor with the stainless steel touches. One thing I can say that needs improvement is the beer menu on the back wall - you just can't read it. (See pic). What would be helpful is to know what you have available on a list at the bar or on a bar menu. Other than that, we had a great time, met new friends and will return. Thank you for coming into our community - we welcome you! read more

Well, we ordered salads as appetizers and watched the server pick them up, and put them back down under the heat lamps. Salads do not need to be kept warm. After seeing them sit there for 10 minutes, I flagged down our server and asked her to go get them. She said she was waiting for the rest of the order. Appetizers get served first, not with the entree. The kids side of French fries were served cold. I guess they did not sit under the heat lamps! Ugh! Get your act together! read more

Clean Not much atmosphere My personal gluten free pizza and an iced tea was $30 with tip. That's quite pricey - especially for not having a special environment. That would lead me not to go there since it is so expensive. read more

Great place and atmosphere ,used to be a place that had good beer and cheap food now has crappy beer and over priced food would recommend brew lab 101 right nextp door if you want real craft beer and good food experience !!! Once what tmbc was in 2001- 2010 was and should still be! read more

As we wait patiently for the new Turtle Mountain location near Hwy 550/528, I thought I'd update my two year old review with some new pics and new excitement! Through the pandemic, Turtle Mountain was able to maintain the same high level of service and quality in person or take out! The same great offerings are available, and the service is always spot on! I can't wait to have a location closer to me! For those of you from ABq, or anywhere outside the Rio area, get to Turtle Mountain! Flock! Hurry! read more

Not only was the food really bad, but the service we received was also less than acceptable.

March 15, 2023 This seems like that local neighborhood bar that all your friends come to :) I came alone after a crap day and got a 'ya look like you could use a drink vibe', which was great. I only tried the Pils beer and I really liked it. Had two pints. For dinner I had the Santa Rosa fish tacos, the habanero sauce was lovely. I always think habanero is more a flavor than a heat indicator and I think this was true here. Is was hot but mostly it added flavor. Cad was cooked well. On my next visit I hope to return in a better mood. And I think I should include that my aunt and uncle, whom live in Rio Rancho, also like and recommend it! read more

This place has been saved in my bookmarks forever and I finally got a chance to go and boy do I wish I ate here much earlier! It's delicious! I love the vibe of this place it's relaxed and cute look. The food was amazing! I ordered a calzone and salad and it was delicious! The hubs got the hot wings and was happy he didn't go hotter because they hot was just hot enough. Overall I really love this place and will be back. Service is friendly and food is great! read more

Ok, but nothing special. Decent "bar food". Good beer and good selection of beers. I had the fish and chips and was mildly disappointed. Just a bit too greasy for my taste. Cod is what you get here in New Mexico so that is certainly nothing special. Taste was ok and cooked well, and the sauce they serve with it was OK. Just had a bulky breading that held the grease. If they went to a corn meal based breading and drained it better it would be better. I ate it all so can't complain about the flavor or the portion at all. Service was just a little slow as well. I was by myself so sat at the bar. Waitstaff didn't seem too interested. So this place is probably a "one and done" for me. Very nice and thoughtful comments from the owner! Obviously they care and want it to be a great place. Nico, we'll give it another shot as there were some interesting things on the menu! Thanks for commenting! It shows a level of care and concern that a lot of places don't have. read more

Always a good experience, great food and great service. Been going here for years and it never disappoints!

Food and beer were good. Customer service was good. Enjoyed our meals, but nothing stood out to me. Average, but good.

Great food and beer! Good atmosphere! Only bad thing I'd have to say is it is always packed as hell! Sometimes service takes awhile to know of your existence. read more

They told us our table would be ready in 30. Over an hour later still no table. Sure it was Saturday night and yes we had 7 in our party. We watched everyone else get Dottie while we were completely ignored. They would not make eye contact with us. We hate you too! We left. The past time we were there, the service was also horrible. Since we use to be regulars I figured it was a fluke. This place use to be good. In their defense, all restaurants have gone down hill. Then they want more money. Turtle Mountain is off our restaurant list. From great to crap. read more

Daniel the bartender is second-to-none! He crafted one of the best Old Fashioned cocktails I've ever had and I've had them around the globe. He mentioned they are waiting on a special spirit that will make it even better! I often enjoy a Hopshell IPA or a stout, but I noticed he was sampling with a straw each cocktail he crafted and that's often a sign of someone who cares. And that's obviously the case! I ordered my pizza well-done and it looked like something Portnoy would be rating! It was packed on a Thursday and I'm hoping this is a sign of what's to come at Turtle Mountain Brewing Co.! read more

My husband and I went there for a midweek little anniversary celebration. We had a couple suggestions from people to try it out. My husband ordered the Tortilla burger smoothered Christmas and ordered it well done. It came out like a hockey puck. Barely any chile on the burger for it to even be considered smothered also. I ordered the sun mountain grinder and it tasted like someone poured an entire salt shaker on it. Not to mention I had to pull off half the bread because it was soggy. We also ordered the Mac & cheese and it was very dry. The server could have done a better job as well. When I was ordering she would only look at my husband. When my husband told her about the food she said. "Oh well it's our dinner rush." That should be an excuse dinner rushes happen every single day at any restaurant. The cooks should be prepared. I understand mistakes happens but when our entire meal was not good that's a problem. The server gave us 50% off my husband's tortilla burger. The atmosphere was okay I don't have any complaints there. read more

Says they close at 9 online, get there at 8:35 and they told me they were closed. I told them I just wanted a beer at the bar and the host said she would ask the bartender.. The guy said he couldn't help me out, with 6 other people sitting at the bar... Call ahead before wasting your time like I just did. Bar service never use to be like that when Andrew was running the show. read more

Wow, wow, wow! I'm told this was a hidden gem, but now everyone knows! What a great find! Carne asada tacos are the bomb! I was so happy with my choice and man did I want to order more, full well knowing I was already full! Beer selection is good, I had the American lager, which was good for me! There are a lot of IPAs on the menu, so if that's you, you'll be happy! I'm excited to visit this place again, I doubt I'll stray from the menu, as I have been dreaming about this tacos all day ! read more

Ordered the fish n chips. Delicious! Fish was crisp but not greasy and fries were good. Service fast great, fast even though it was super busy. Seating was comfortable and surprisingly not overly noisy. read more

Great beer , fun atmosphere food is good service is on point. Outdoor seating during warmer months.

TMB is a go to for a good listing of brews for sure. By far the fish and chips is a favorite. Nice tasty large pieces and of course the chips. Service is always excellent and the local sports pub atmosphere is cool. read more

I enjoy going to eat here. Food is usually good. I always tell my friends if they order the Nachos they are very hot!! Even without chili because they put chili in the nacho cheese. The waitress even said people send back the nachos several times a day. The owner knows but he won't change the way it's made. It makes the nachos very unenjoyable. read more

Green Chile Mac n cheese is to die for, the chicken Alfredo, salads, sandwiches, pizzas and calzones are all amazing. They also offer some great selections of beer and wine. Try it out you won't be disappointed. The only throng that might not be ideal are the wait times but the wait is worth it. read more

Food was good and service was awesome! Sat at the bar; Andrew was our bartender . Very nice and great sense of humor. He was attentive and fast! We got our drink and food order in less than 15 minutes! There were quite a few patrons but service was still speedy. It's very pretty inside ! Loved the decor! It's a new neighborhood gem. I gave them the standard 3 months of being open to work out the kinks. Covid didn't help as I heard they were understaffed . I couldn't tell by that ! Give them a try and tell Andrew hello! read more

My family of (7) seven ordered dinner from here for pick up. I had the patty melt with all the fixings and fries. It was FLIPPING delicious! Normally, I'm not a patty melt person but I wanted a burger. Not a blue cheese burger or other specialty burger but a good solid yummy burger. I got what I wanted! It was delicious. Grandkids had the burger kids meal and they were happy. Others had the salmon with cilantro lime rice (BOMB!) and ?? something else. Bottom line is that this place knows how to keep local folks happy with GREAT food. I didn't try the beer but I will!! Thanks mucho for being in RR - I appreciate you, your wonderful food and being so close to my house! :D Cheers! PS - I think we having dinner there tonight! lol read more

Hands down the best place for grub. Turtle throw down some righteous pizza along side some delectable pub style munchies but with that New Mexican spin. Hot!hot!hot!.. beers are as chill as the staff. read more

Good food and great atmosphere, the bartender was alert and attentive to our needs all night. Definitely coming back soon!

I like the food at Turtle Mountain, however, the sauces for wings are all hot and spicy. For people who cannot eat hot and spicy foods there should be other options. Example, for a dry rub, garlic parmesan or lemon pepper would be good options. Also have a regular BBQ sauce that is not spicy or has heat. I hope to see some new sauces in the near future. read more

Found this restaurant on Yelp, and so glad I did! Went for lunch so did not have any of their brew. They have a variety of sandwiches, burgers, taco, pasta and pizza. I will say the pizza was one of the best I have ever had! But everything coming out of the kitchen look very good! Our waiter was friendly and helpful. If we get back to ABQ we would definitely go back! read more

The wooden teeth and the Schwarzbier are my favs, hands down. There's a reason why they are taking home awards! I've had the chance to sample pizza here, nachos, fish n chips, and even pasta, everything serves up well, and the service is commendable. They are doing it right here in Rio Rancho, there really is a lot to offer on the menu, and they are happy to offer you a sample of any of the beers you're mulling over. If you haven't stopped in yet, make it a priority to make that happen in the new year! read more

Ok there are brew places you go because, well, beer.....but TMBC is the place you go to get FED, and oh yes, maybe have beer..... Tonight, for my birthday, our party of 6 went all over the menu, and all was delicious! Calzones as big as Popeye's forearm, (with no sacrifice on flavors). The Mimbres is my fav, with artichokes, spinach, roasted peppers and garlic, with yummy stringy mozz! Hubby tried the Bear Canyon Sammy, and totally appreciated the mega amount of meat! He stole some of my Dad's jalapeños from his mountain of cheesy, guacamole chicken nachos to put on his sandwich and was very happy. Out of town friends enjoyed Phil's Fish and Chips. For me, the birthday girl, I was served one delicious brownie, a la modey, and was thankful that our server brought out multiple spoons for the rich gooey chocolate, nutty bites. Thanks, Turtle Mountain, for a delicious birthday Celebration! read more
