Chicken fajita

If they would have done the right thing and refunded the meal, I would not have written this review. No arguments, I let the restaurant decide what the right thing should be. I was the one who had to ask for a discount for this terrible meal. The chicken and the onions were raw for the fajitas and the beans and rice were terrible. No lettuce and barely any tomatoes in the pico. They charged me for the beans, rice and chips and salsa and took off for the chicken and onions only. The salsa and chips come with the meal so I don't know why they did this. They also charged me $1.85 for a side of sour cream I used to lessen the spice in the salsa which was way too much. It was after 2pm and I was starving otherwise I would have returned the entire meal. I also had a time crunch to get to another appointment. So disappointed. I rarely get to the East side and try to take advantage of authentic Mexican food. This is definitely not the place.

Ground beef burrito plate smothered w Green Chili (spicy)

My friend invited me to lunch at this restaurant that I usually pass by but she recommended it. She wasn't wrong. It was after the lunch rush hour so not crowded. We were greeted immediately and seated. Joseph took good care of us. The menu was extensive so I decided on the Fiesta Chalupa and my friend - a Burrito plate smothered w Green chili. Both were excellent and perfectly seasoned. I found the restaurant attractive and very clean. There is a separate bar room. The lunch specials end at 3 pm and the menu prices are fair. I'll be back for sure. ;))

I had the lunch special navajo burger with crispy fries. The green chili was good. The service was okay. The waitress with glasses took a while to come to my table. I will try the red chili and their breakfast and have a better waitress next time.

Green chile stew and michelada

The bartender was extremely nice and the group of folks at the bar were all locals and provided excellent recommendations on what to eat, where else in Albuquerque to go while I was not at the ANMTA conference for Telecom. Highly recommend checking this place out! Great food as well!

a sign for a mexican restaurant

Seemed like the whole restaurant scene in ABQ was closed on Sunday...I ended up here mainly because they had an "open" sign in the window. I got my first taste of Carne Adobada which they put inside a sopopia. Delicious ! Nice lounge area with lots of TVs. Kinda quiet in there. Get some volume on one of those games ... kinda felt like eating in a library, not a Fiesta. But food and service were great. Thanks for a good experience.

3. Ranchero Skillet and juevos 6. Huevos Rancheros
Carlos O.

Middle of the road for my wife and I. The food is decent, the service is decent and the restaurant itself is decent. We ordered the juevos rancheros and the ranchero skillet. The potatoes tasted like they were cooked the day before and warmed up for our meals. Kind of a strange texture to them, not sure why. The green chili was very tasty and had the perfect kick, the red was not so good. This place is one of those restaurants we may go to again if we happen to be in the area and there is no wait for a table, otherwise we probably won't be back. I'd say try it, it's worth a shot!

Food was terrible. Nothing authentic had the posole couldn't take the first bite. The pork smelled bad Pretty sure it was spoiled. I decided to try some tacos they were worse. I should've looked at the overall star rating 3 1/2 should've told me something but I always try to give restaurants a chance. I will not ever be going back and really think this place needs some food training regarding prep/ sit times. It's obvious they have been around for very long time just not sure how they have lasted. Now that I'm reading some of the reviews it's obvious it's hit or miss on food days. Seams like it's had problems on and off with food quality.

Fantastic burrito.

The cocktail menu was large onough, but they carry only 3 beers currently, and a very limited number of wines. We were a party of six and everyone found something to drink. The living room seating was comfy and we found the decor delightful and inviting. I asked if they could spin some albums for us and indeed they did. I am sorry I did not catch the bartender's name but he was very accommodating. We will return ... had a good time!

The menus are on a vinyl, to match their theme. And their drink menu is fun. What was disappointing was that 1. we had to wait 25 minutes for a bartender to show up and get our orders, then another long time to get the drinks. After the wait, a second drink was out of the question. 2. This is a vinyl lounge, and even though they had a setup for a DJ, there was no one playing but a speaker. 3. Some or our drinks did not come out with all the "frills" and effects as described on the menu, so we missed part of the experience. Not sure if it was an off night for them but my experience wasn't great.

Had the jungle bird, which was properly bitter if you're into that. The marikoriko was sweet and fruity, way easy to drink. The Saturn was also wonderfully fruity and easy to drink. I didn't bother with the mai tai because they use kraken instead of an actual funky Caribbean rum, which is wild because they carry Meyers. Probably my biggest critique is to funkify that Mai Tai yo! Float of kraken if you must, but use some Caribbean rum in there! Service was great, atmosphere left room for improvement. Great for a casual few drinks with your meal. Solid spot! Would return again.

Prices on the menu at Volare are a bit higher than they should be, though that's to be expected at…read morea hotel bar. Expect to pay maybe $10-$15 more than you would at a different location. Despite the higher prices, I'd rate this near the top in terms of hotel amenities, mainly due to good service and a fantastic, elevated, almost 360° view of Albuquerque. If you want to socialize a bit at the end of your day, you'll find 10-20 people enjoying dinner and drinks even on a random weekday. The music is tasteful, there's good ambience, but it's quiet enough to have a conversation without yelling if you'd like to. I ordered the peach mule and pepperoni flatbread (with green Chile added, of course). The mule was great, I had to order a second. It was just peachy enough to give character without being overwhelming. The flatbread was decent, though being served on a small charcuterie board let it cool off a bit faster than I'd have liked - this my reason for 4 stars rather than 5. All in all, if you want a fantastic view and a nice place to relax at the end of the day, try Volare. The views alone make it worthwhile.

This time was no different in terms of our server's attention, personality, efficiency, and overall demeanor. V ~ was great and thank you! I am personally giving 3 stars for this bar/restaurant for 2 reasons: 1) the online menu is not updated with prices - I will delve into this more in a minute, and 2) kitchen service was slower than expected. Here is a link to their menu online: https://drive.google.com/file/d/148CplSivVBTXmrWlSO46WytoWdpd0REA/view I got the hard seltzer which was supposed to be $7 but I ended up paying $10 for a can of seltzer. Got 2 and the total without tip with tax was over $21. Seriously! that is friggin outrageous. I would have gotten wine if I wanted to spend that much. TRULY HARD SELTZER | 7 Hard Seltzer | 5.0% ABV Secondly, 7 out of 8 of us ordered food and 1 person had to ask for her crostini 3 or 4 times. Our lovely server did take it off of her check but nontheless, we were all done eating by the time she got her food and she was so gracious about it. Another thing: why can't I make a reservation in advance for a group of more than 4 when the place was clearly not busy at 4 pm on a Tuesday? We make 3 separate reservations for 4 people. This is a social group, and we meetup via MEETUP weekly. People will RSVP and then cancel. We had 12 coming and then 8 showed up. I am not certain we will resturn.

Decent view of the Sandias with a Jack-in-the-Box the only obstruction. Bartender was attentive and took care of us, but it wasn't that busy. Plenty of parking, looks dog friendly, was relatively clean. Background music was a hip-hop mix with a lot of noticeable foul language (not that it bothers me, just was abundant). Interesting that they distill their own vodka, gin, & bourbon. Might have to go back with a designated driver and try some. Tried their Jest-a-Lager & Low-Rider lagers, with both getting more bitter towards the bottom of the pint. Tasted the grapefruit lager & the unfiltered pilsner, with the latter being the smoothest finish of everything I had. I did not sample the ales or rum cask porter, which are more inline with what I prefer because of my drive and empty stomach. My friend had the hazy, West Coast, New England & red rye IPAs (boo, don't get the fascination) and took home a 4-pack of their Off the Rails red rye IPA, his favorite of the bunch. They sell cans of most of their beers (sorry, not the 12% rum cask porter) and their hootch. They do fill growlers, but don't have any to fill/sell... too old school I guess. For Yelpers, their Yelp info isn't up to date with the hours of operation off in 2 places and the menu outdated. Their website is up to date.
