    Such a vibe! This chic little speak easy with a tap tap tap on a banana was everything. The drinks were delicious, beautiful, and fun! Everyone that works here really cares about the place and was incredibly attentive. The music was also so on point - a great mix... made me want to stay and hang out to my fave jams. It was so convenient and fun to pop in here while staying at the very artsy and fun Hotel Zazz! Highly recommend. And the following morning I came in here for coffee and it was such a delight! So much craft and care put into it all. Definitely stop by here for drinks coffee vibes and of course all the very instagramable spots ! You can check out my Instagram this week for a full reel of this place (was a big fan of my whole experience here the hotel the bar and the spa!) @crystalrosereynolds

    Zéma Vinyl Lounge (Inside Hotel Zazz) Absolutely loved this hidden speakeasy! Located inside Hotel Zazz, Zéma Vinyl Lounge feels like a secret. To enter, you tap a banana sculpture three times in the hotel lobby and a hidden door opens -- such a fun and unique way to start the night. Inside, the vibe is intimate and stylish, with high-end vintage audio gear Macintosh receivers and vinyl playing moody lighting, and a super clean art deco-inspired restroom. The bartender was friendly, the drink I ordered was fantastic, and the whole experience felt like stepping into a curated piece of the past. It's cozy, creative, and executed with care. Hotel Zazz (Same Property) Unfortunately, the hotel experience didn't live up to the lounge. The room had issues: the fridge didn't work, the sink was clogged with hair and candy, and I had to unclog it myself. Cleanliness was below even basic motel standards -- not what I expected given the boutique vibe they're going for. The staff were polite but clearly not trained properly, especially around handling payments. When I checked in, they charged me $12.92 for parking. At checkout, a different staff member realized the lot was empty and tried to refund it, saying I shouldn't have been charged at all -- but instead, they charged me again. Now I've been charged twice, and despite calling twice and leaving messages, no manager has returned my call. It's a shame -- the hotel has so much creative potential, but it's not being managed properly. Zéma Vinyl Lounge: 5 stars. Hotel Zazz: 1 stars. Needs serious attention to staff training, guest communication, and basic cleanliness.

    When checking out other speakeasies many of the bartenders at those bars highly recommend…read morerecommended that Frank's. It's hidden inside another hotdog shop. You go downstairs into the basement through the kitchen and into the speakeasy environment. We lucked out and they had started their restaurant week menu a couple days early. We went with the hot dog tower. The food here is delicious. I love all the different varieties of hotdog dogs. They had I wanted to try them all I also appreciate that they had a decent mocktail menu. The service was great. The food was delicious. The drinks were excellent and it was an overall good value. If you're in the area checking out speakeasies don't pass this one up.

    Great service and fun ambiance make Fat Franks a good time. To get in, you schedule a "delivery"…read moreand come to the back door in the alley. The "delivery" is a donation to a non-profit organization. This month it's children's books. I enjoyed my daiquiri with the Duck Hunt - smoked duck sausage, grilled onions, mustard, bourbon BBQ sauce, red chile raspberry jam, bacon bits, and cilantro. The sausage was juicy and flavorful. My husband tried the Korean corn dog and liked it, though he thought the batter closest to the dog was a bit doughy. Eating good food while doing something good for our community - I love it!

    Believe it or not, after more than 10 years living in Albuquerque, I really haven't been to many of…read morethe finer dining establishments. I recently visited zinc for the first time for a birthday celebration. Overall, I was very impressed with everything. I enjoyed my salad, which at the time was the seasonal special and had pears in it. I also really enjoyed the lobster ravioli. I didn't try and cocktails because I wasn't drinking at the time but their cocktail menu was interesting. Overall, I would totally come back, I'd like to check out their more casual bar menu.

    WOW -- extraordinary service, food, ambiance --- the WHOLE PACKAGE…read more I came for the first time with 7 friends. It was a Wednesday @ 5 pm when they opened. The hostess was kind in allowing this senior group to sit upstairs while having happy hour items from the *cellar menu. Our gracious server was Menomonee. She took our drink orders and everyone was happy with the festive well-prepared cocktails. Then we ordered our appetizers, entrees, and desserts. Everything was right on point. I even took a few photos - which I rarely ever remember to do. (I will post them after this review is online.) [*While the cellar seems very intimate, one person in our party was with a cane and has trouble with stairs, and another person has vision issues in the dark, so we could not handle that environment.] So, well done Zinc staffers and kitchen! You have won new customers' hearts and well will be back again and again!!!
