    A very beach like atmosphere right in the middle of the NE heights where you can play volleyball in the sand pits! The food was pretty good and reasonably priced. A little on the salty side. Service was great though.

    We ate it all

    My GF and I had watched this spot get built out and finally open. We were looking for a lunch spot one day and decided to swing in. The cuban sandwich was delicious! Look for more to come from this great spot.

    ..Ex Novo mass ascension is tasty! #Duke City Beaches

    There's an awesome pirate ship for the kids to play on, and the art all around the place is awesome as well.

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.

    Great servers! Everyone was helpful and kind so front of house manager must be doing their job!…read moreFood was delicious. Crispy Brussels sprouts had great flavor but way too much cayenne pepper (which adds nothing but heat) my husband ate them but said he would prefer less heat. I had 2 bites and gave up. Baked brie was amazing I loved the granny Smith apples! My husband loved them too. We also got the hummus duo which has dates on it and I used a date in the brie that was fantastic! I'll ask for that next time! It was the bomb. Hummus duo was good the watermelon radish was beautiful on the plate but gave both hummus a bitter flavor. Shrimp and grits. We live in Alabama currently and this was our least favorite dish of the day. Shrimp were cooked well and so were the grits but there was just something else it needed. Parmesan cheese and some onions maybe. Greek salad delicious. The flash fried chick peas made it. We needed more dressing and the wait staff was prompt and sweet about it. Spicy Lime Ceasar was ok till he requested more dressing then it was amazing. I was afraid of ordering it but the dressing wasn't too spicy . White sangria I had was disappointing it was more of a 1995 wine spritzer than a wine infused with citrus which is the very essence of sangria. It was ok and had I ordered a wine spritzer I would say yummo but I ordered sangria. Pork Belly flat bread was the winner of the night the tomato jam made that dish. I would love more on it next time but we will definitely be ordering that dish again! Yes we had a lot of left over food! But I love sampling a menu and this menu has a lot to offer. We will be back to try 4 or five other things. I look forward to my return.

In a rare turn of events, both kids got the same thing, the Korean chicken bites with the sauce on the side, which was a great decision bc it did have a kick to it. The chicken itself was a bit dry. Both adults also got the pork belly flatbread. I found it a bit unbalanced with too much sauce and not enough other toppings, and the base wasn't as crispy as I prefer. Speaking of crispy, we opted for the appetizer brussel sprouts, and they were a bit chewy and on the not so super crispy side. Service was fine, and glad to have a little break from heavier New Mexican cuisine on this night. Lots of variety on the cocktail and adult beverage menu too.

The ambiance was exquisite despite the somewhat loud noise level. The decor and the service were both top notch. Our server Sergio went above and beyond the call of duty. He made our anniversary even more special with a free dessert, a coupon for a free wine flight on our next visit and a hand written list of recommended local attractions and eateries. And then there is the food. The potsticker appetizer was pleasing to both the eye and palate. I had the meatloaf entree which was delicious. And my husband loved the beef bourguignon. And the crème brûlée we had for dessert was delightfully creamy underneath a beautiful gold crust. We will definitely return and highly recommend DH Lescombes to anyone seeking fine but affordable dining in the Albuquerque area.

We also had the Brussel sprouts as an appetizer. The Brussels were very good. A little sticky because of the sweet glaze that was on it. So be careful if you have false teeth. My steak was ok , it didn't really have a lot of flavor and was a little fatty. My wife's schnitzel was very good tho. The service was top notch and I will definitely be going back here again. It's a great place for a date night or to just hang out with friends

    I love Artichoke Cafe. I've been here several times since 2013, but not in the last 6 years. The…read moreservice is friendly, the food amazing. Today, I came for an early lunch before heading back to MKE. I had the fried artichoke hearts, which i love, the steak fries with chimichurri was fantastic. I also had the creme brulee, great! I have had all of these dishes in the past. They were just as amazing as I remember. Initially, I was the only customer, so i spoke with the manager a bit. I was able to compliment the chef as I left. Was this a cheap lunch? No. But it was close my to my hotel, and the food was excellent. It was a treat to be back in ABQ.

Like not "room temperature" cold but "just came out of refrigerator" cold. Both my plate and my husband's dish had the same issue. We sent it back, asking for it to be warmed up, and somehow mine was STILL cold. My husband's was a little warmer so we swapped plates and he ate the cold ragú so I didn't have to. Which was a little sad given that it was his birthday... Also regret getting the bread appetizer...the focaccia was stale and so hard at the edges that we couldn't eat it. The cocktails and squash blossom app we got were very good so at least there's that. But for the price I think there are more consistent places out there.

    A bit of a hidden gem set back in the neighborhood, we had a fantastic meal here. The starters,…read moresoups, and salads appealed to me (and my girlfriend was minimally hungry), so we shared off that portion of the menu. The lamb tartare was expertly prepared, and perfectly complimented with housemade potato chips (seasoned, very crispy, and the right amount of vinegar). The ratatouille was phenomenal; very flavorful (both the veggies & sauce), perfectly cooked veggies, and some crispy kale. The steak tenderloin stew was excellent, and I appreciated that the Christmas chile sauce was on the side so you could add it to taste. The meat was tender, the stew had a good flavor to it, and the chile sauce brought it to another level. My girlfriend loved the green chile pineapple sorbet. It had a lite chile flavor, and wasn't too sweet. The orange blossom tres leche cake was outstanding, with the cake and meringue cooked to perfection (both with great consistency), and the lowkey orange blossom flavor complimenting things very nicely. We ate at the bar, Ben the bartender was a great server. His notes on the dishes were informative and accurate, and he also recommended some places in and around Santa Fe for us to checkout... Have dinner here. You'll be happy you did. And you might want to sit at the bar.

    They had me at the offer of a "purse hook"…read more That's right, our server Jeff (top notch professional) approached our table and asked if my friend & I would like purse hooks. (Yes, please.) I've been hearing about Joseph's for some time, and on my most recent visit to Santa Fe finally visited for dinner. It was the meal of the trip. The restaurant itself has a charming neighborhoody feel with several rooms, wood beams, local art, and adequate spacing between tables (one of my pet peeves is the lack of privacy caused by tables too close together.) The food. Oh my. Food should not bring me this much pleasure... It's an award winner, so call ahead.
