    Service was slow but our server was very pleasant. Probably a kitchen issue. Excellent preparation.

    Food is always good but they definitely need more servers. Luckily the bartender jumped in to help.

    If it was not for the absolute complete lack of service from the bar, before we got seated, this review would have been 5 stars. My brother, visiting from out of town, and I tried to get drinks at the bar before our reservation. So we grabbed two seats at the bar and then got ignored by 2 bartenders for 10 minutes before we got up and left the bar, opting to just go ahead and get seated for dinner. The kicker to this is one of the bartenders asked and served the gentleman sitting right next to me but never asked my brother or myself if we wanted to order drinks, just completely ignored. Not acceptable. From there, once we were seated for dinner, all good from our server and as usual, since I use to frequent this restaurant, great food!

    As soon as we walked in to the restaurant we felt this was a special place. We were quickly greeted. Our server had a great personality and was attentive and made some recommendations which turned out be be spot on! Food was delicious. Our friends who are from New Mexico-said the food was true New Mexico cuisine. We enjoyed the ambiance and everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves.

    The food was outstanding but something really off with gentleman seating guests. We had a booth reservation for two weeks, yet he just left us standing by the door for 15 minutes. He would say “they’re preparing your table” when we could see it was already ready. Then he would disappear and come back and take some calls and get on the computer. We just stood there. It was super weird and other guests were complaining of the same treatment!
