I ordered a Michelada cocktail, which was equally delicious. The lobster deviled eggs were fantastic. My wife isn't really a seafood fan so she ordered a green chile smash burger.

The only needs improvement I see is I would've liked to have had a bloody Mary and that wasn't one of the listed items on the cocktail menu.

This place is a cute, little oyster bar located inside of the former Yanni's bar. I came here with…read morea friend and his family for a birthday dinner. Unfortunately, they didn't ask us if we had a special occasion we were celebrating, but overall the service was great. The ambiance was pretty nice and there is a back patio that has a few tables. They have a large array of oysters from the east coast and west coast. The oysters and the way they served and prepared were good. They do have raw clams also which I thought strange, but I'm probably just not fancy enough. We ordered a few appetizers including green chili hush puppies which seemed to need a little more Smokey green chili flavor and they were a bit dry. The lobster deviled eggs are sort of tart and flavorless and I didn't get any lobster on mine. My friend said the lobster rolls were good, and I had a salmon special that was out of this world delicious and cooked to perfection!! The red curry mussels were also outstanding!! Could use a bit more spice and salt, but really good. One of the kiddos didn't want raw food, but he also couldn't find much on the menu for kids. They were out of what he ordered and when they finally did get his order, his food came out about 15 minutes after the rest of the table. They did comp out appetizers so that was nice, but in my opinion they should have comped his meal since they didn't have what he wanted and then served him so much later. Their alcoholic fancy beverages were great. I had a glass of wine that was good. I would suggest offering more wines and meals from the adjacent wine bar and restaurant to Lure as well. They have a few kinks to work out, but I think they are on the right track. There is no phone so it's very difficult to make a reservation. I recommend visiting this place and trying some of their food during off hours. I'm not sure I'd recommend their appetizers yet, but with a few tweaks they will improve. Cheers!

I ordered the wild-caught grouper -- it was flaky, cooked well, and the seasoning was decent. My partner got the Salmon Alexander, which was also pretty good. My aunt ordered the oven-roasted sea bass, and we all agreed it was the best dish at the table. The fish was incredibly tender and the sauce complemented it perfectly. Just a heads up: it took about 20 minutes for our food to come out, so keep that in mind if you're in a rush. Is it the best seafood I've ever had? Honestly, no but for the price range and for a chain restaurant, I think they do a really solid job. Also, our server Monique was amazing! Great customer service

My son and I loved the scallops, most of us were turned off by the shrimp not being deveined before cooking and the crab was just not worth the work. The service for that visit was impressive, which really made the meal. 4 stars Last week, my son and I returned for another run at just scallops, calamari again, and Cajun fries. The restaurant was busier this time, but not packed and there was still no waiting, but the service was far less than what we had just a couple weeks earlier. The food was good, not great, again. At this price point, I expect better, and the difference in service showed me how much that can make the meal. This visit 2 stars.

Food: Appetizers: We got a variety including duck confit egg rolls, encrusted brie, fried asparagus, mussels, rattlesnake sausages and sopaipillas. The encrusted brie was a crowd favorite (who doesn't love fried cheese?) but I thought the addition of bread was unnecessary when the brie provided its own crispy texture. The mussels were good but a little spicy so beware! The sopaipilla was my least favorite dish. They served bite sized sopaipillas with cheese on top. A delicious idea but the sopaipilla was chewy and flat rather than fluffy. All entrees come with the option of a soup or salad. French Onion Soup: This was my side of choice and it was super salty. Norwegian Salmon: The salmon was perfectly cooked. It was flaky and moist but had crispy skin. The saffron tomato risotto that came with it was undercooked. The Farm: This comes with duck leg confit, lamb chop, and rotating protein (elk for our meal). Each meat was perfectly cooked. The duck meat fell off the bone easily and was succulent. The lamb chop and elk were tender and not overcooked. The green chile risotto that came with it was quite spicy! However, it does seem variable as others had the same side but it was less spicy. Lemon Leche Cake: True to its name, it was very lemony while keeping the tres leche cake flavor. It was quite cold. Service: 4 Our servers were very patient with our large group and did not make any mistakes with our orders. Ambiance: 4 Seared is a small restaurant with a southwest theme. It would be a nice restaurant for a casual date or dinner with friends. It has its own parking lot.

The place setting immediately stood out--clean, elegant, and it really elevated the overall aesthetic and intimate vibe of the restaurant. I ordered the Chicken Madagascar and it was seriously delicious. The chicken was tender and perfectly cooked, and the seasoned cream sauce with green peppercorns and mushrooms had so much flavor without being too heavy. Everything paired really well together and felt like a true comfort dish with a fine dining touch. The beer was also on point--cold, smooth, and a great complement to the meal. The atmosphere is what really makes this place special though. It has that cozy, romantic, old-school charm that makes it perfect for a date night or special occasion. Overall, great food, great drinks, and a beautiful setting. Definitely a spot I'd come back to.

Reservations were a little bit hard because it's not online but I finally got a phone reservation on my 5th day. Call them between 4-5 pm when I guess they're not busy with service. Sean was our server and he was very pleasant and professional. We have been here before so we declined for him to explain the menu. It was a candle lit dinner and very romantic. We had crab cakes that are the best in ABQ so far and chowder soup. For entrees, we had the jumbo scallops and Henry IV filet mignon wrapped in bacon with artichoke hearts. The food was exceptional but the sauces on the scallops and Filet mignon were a little bit on the salty side. Overall, we enjoyed our night at Antiquity!

We got the boil added clams and black mussels more then half the mussels were unopened which we saved let them know. "We can cook them more was the response we got" If you know anything about shellfish you should know If mussels don't open when you cook them, the usual rule is: don't eat them. * Most of the time: a mussel that stays closed after cooking was already dead before cooking, and that can make it unsafe to eat. * Food safety rule: toss any that don't open after being fully cooked. So absolutely not and risk getting sick I complained said I want them removed do you think they removed them NO they still charged us for half when I had 14 mussels sitting there unopened.
