    Lovely spot! I came on a Friday ~5pm with my husband and kids. The toddlers shared a cheese pizza slice. They had a special where you got 4 pieces for $25. That was more than enough food for my husband and I. Gelato was great. When we had arrived there as only 1 group in line. It seemed like immediately after we ordered there was a solid line the remainder of our time there- but it moved quickly. Bathroom had a changing table. There were 4 high seats available. Overall it was a good spot for kids!

    Corner location across from Uptown shopping center and close to the mall. Slices are large with a thin crust. You can a slice flight. Gelato. Wine. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating available. Staff is friendly and food is brought out quickly. Perfect for a post shopping bite to eat.

    Chop salad
    Melissa N.

    Perfect slice of pizza. I got the Angry, crunchy on the bottom and held up well when picked up without being burnt. And the crust was amazing, chewy and soft in the center and just slightly sweet. Can tell it was fresh and kneaded well. It actually had a decent kick to it. That plus a chop salad stuffed me beyond full. Next time I'll have to bring someone else to split the salad with. Line order at the front and sit down. They brought out my food in less than a minute. Casual spot and a nice patio outside.

    Handcrafted white lemon pizza

    I thoroughly enjoyed my experience at Gimani. The restaurant blends an industrial aesthetic with an upscale vibe that fits perfectly into Uptown Albuquerque. The wait staff was professional, attentive, and delivered genuinely excellent service. And the food--oh, the food--was outstanding. I highly recommend the white lemon pizza, a bright and flavorful combination of lemon, fresh mozzarella, fontina, and whipped ricotta. Bonus points: you can pair your pizza with a great glass of wine. Gimani is a fantastic spot to meet up with friends or enjoy a date night. Just a fair warning--the slices are so generous they're practically the size of your head.

    I went inside and it was very packed but it was a good flow were your able to still get a table by the time you place your order, there is a patio seating as well, same with "bar" high top chairs as well. The food came out hot , it's a large slice for one person . i got a side of Caesar dressing (i'm a ranch girl but they don't serve ranch) it wasn't bad not very fishy or anything very traditional in way, i got my pep slice with the additives , i would say personally i wouldn't get it with burrata as the cheese was cold and made the pizza cold, and it was overpowering to the point i wasn't able to really taste the pizza , but that is my personal preference's. overall would def go back again and recommend !

    Per a locals recc, I grabbed pizza from this spot prior to hitting up a hot yoga session before my flight back home the next day. This was by far probably the best food I came across this weekend with the perfectly cheesy freshly made pizza out the box. I ordered the pepp with hot honey which was MAGICAL. And the special slice was quite good the next morning as well. Big fan

    I had some time to check out Gimani when I was around Coronado Mall area, so I decided to stop by to check this place out since it's been on my list for so long. The place was hopping! There were lines of customers (lunch crowds!) even during weekdays. What I thought was amazing was...I felt this establishment had completely turned around the business location from when it was another pizza brand before Gimani took over for sure! The crowd and good, lively music was there...and it vibe was clean, modern and bright! I tried the White Lemon pizza, fountain drink and the gelato...and to be honest, the White Lemon pizza was just ok. I thought it looked better than it tasted (probably because it was a little too cheeesy/plain tasting to me vs. normal pizza with some proper sauce!). That said, the ice cream and the choice of fountain drink was great! They had your typical sodas and a couple of tea/fruit-based refreshment to try as well. Overall, the taste was find..it wasn't anything way too outstanding. However, the combination of the location, business vibe and the price point...along with the value of the food that they offer, Gimani is a very solid lunch option for sure...especially if you are a pizza lover!

    Pizza flight 25$

    We visited this location while passing through Albuquerque on our way to Durango, CO. I was super excited to have the pizza flight as it was excellently priced and my partner accidentally ordered two. We were so stocked with pizza it was kind of hilarious. The lemon pizza was quite interesting in the best way possible. I definitely have a sweet tooth and enjoyed the flavor profile of that one. Honestly every pizza we had here was excellent with clearly defined flavors and ingredients that properly complimented one another. Our dogs were allowed to hang out with us on the outside patio which is something I appreciated:). Honestly I'd come back in a heartbeat (and order less pizza). The vibe is cool and all the employees are knowledgeable and friendly. Thanks y'all!

    Cool spot. Definitely noticed that people were enjoying the patio area. Friends told me I needed to check this place out. I being a HUGE pizza fan was excited to go. I have to admit I was not impressed. I am a self proclaimed pizza snob and this was not my favorite pizza. From the crust to the toppings I was disappointed from first bite.

    Caesar Salad & Pizza Flight
    Corinna P.

    We had been wanting to come here for awhile so we had the pizza flight that has 4 pizza slices of your choice. We ordered 1 Margh Slice, 2 Pepp Slices & 1 Angry Slice. We also ordered a Caesar Salad to share. Service was super fast and friendly. All the employees work very hard and are all very nice. Restaurant was clean and comfortable. On to the food - our Caesar salad was average - nothing really spectacular about it. Couldn't even distinguish a taste of a Caesar dressing at all. The best thing about the salad were the croutons but I am still glad we tried it. All the portions are really big so just ordering the pizza flight for 2 people was way too much food. The salad was definitely not needed. The pizza was good but I wouldn't take a special trip down there to have it again. I'm glad I got to taste it and see what all the hype is about but for me personally it just didn't hit the spot. I like the mom and pop pizza places just a little more but Definitely worth checking it out for yourself. Nice walkable area.

    I tried this place with a friend and my kids. You order at the front then take a number, and they bring to you. The menu is small and to the point, which I appreciate. I had the spicy pepperoni (I can't recall the name) and added the hot honey drizzle on it. The kids had the Margherita pizza. For young kids, you only need one slice which you can cut in half. I also ordered the gelato for the kids. For the price it's a little small, but they enjoyed it. The salads are also very big, and could be shared within a group. It does pick up around 6p, so I would suggest getting there early!

The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, with a really cool art-gallery vibe throughout the space. It's the kind of place where you can easily lose track of time sipping wine and browsing the local artwork. The wine selection was impressive--lots of unique New Mexico wines to choose from, and the tasting flights are a great way to try several different varieties. The staff was super friendly and knowledgeable, offering recommendations based on what we liked and explaining the wines without making it feel intimidating. We also tried a cheese board which paired perfectly with the wine and made the whole experience feel a little extra special. Whether you're a serious wine enthusiast or just looking for a fun stop while exploring Old Town, this place is definitely worth checking out. Great wine, great vibe, and great service.

    Review for D.H. Lescombes Winery & Bistro…read more We came here to celebrate our 3rd wedding anniversary and overall had a great experience. We were seated immediately and the service was phenomenal from start to finish. We started with the meatball appetizer with pesto sauce. While it tasted good, the meatballs seemed like frozen/pre-made rather than scratch-made, which was a little disappointing considering the price point. That said, we were brought bread and butter beforehand which was a nice touch. For entrées, my husband ordered the New Mexico pasta and he enjoyed it. I ordered the ribeye with a loaded baked potato and a salad with bleu cheese vinaigrette. My steak was initially overcooked, but they handled it perfectly -- they boxed up the original steak to take home AND cooked me a brand new one to medium rare (absolute perfection). That level of service really stood out. The wine tasting was phenomenal -- we tried a sweet rosé that was absolutely delicious (I wish I remembered the name!). We also ordered dessert and tried the chocolate torte, which was just okay -- not bad, but nothing memorable. Our server went above and beyond, checking on us frequently and even discounting our ticket for our anniversary, which made the night feel extra special. The ambiance inside was quiet, romantic, and business-casual, with beautiful warm décor. The restaurant was very clean and well kept. We would definitely return and recommend this spot for date nights, anniversaries, and wine lovers. Great service, solid food, and an inviting atmosphere.

We had a reservation for 11:30am and arrived on time, but ended up waiting outside for about 10 minutes with no staff in sight. We called multiple times for assistance before anyone came out. To make matters worse, the friend who made the reservation was never informed that brunch is held in the private club and not the e restaurant, which caused unnecessary confusion right from the start. Once a waiter finally found us, we were taken to the private club where we were told they only had three brunch menu items available that day. We ordered immediately, along with waters and mimosas. Keep in mind, there were only two tables total--our group of three and another group of seven--so it wasn't busy. Despite that, service was extremely slow. It took 20 minutes just to get our mimosas, and our waters were forgotten and didn't come out until another 10 minutes later. Our food took about 40 minutes, which felt excessive given how few people were there. Even more frustrating, my friends' meals came out about 10 minutes before mine. There's really no reason meals at the same table shouldn't be served together. The food itself was just okay. The only standout was the French toast, which was actually really good--and honestly the only reason this review isn't one star. I also ordered coffee and was told they don't carry creamer, which is surprising for a place offering brunch. Our waitress rarely checked on us throughout the meal, which added to the overall lack of service. Between the confusion, long wait times, and lack of attention, this experience didn't meet expectations. I won't be returning.

Our reservation was on time and people were quite attentive, assuring us it would be (we got there early). The ambiance was relaxed and quiet, but it got noisier as the night crowd joined. Service was attentive and also slow at times. I am unsure if the slow service was as we were enjoying our company or if this is the norm. As friendly as the service was, there were some significant mistakes. One order was not put with the others, delaying the dish even more. Having a party of six, I would expect the server to ask how to split the check before giving it. That delayed things even more at the end. To correct this mistake, he offered a drink on the house. And the last one, they charged me for drinks we didn't drink. We found this after we left. In terms of drinks, they were fantastic and long-named! My bartender's choice was absolutely in point. Even though the dishes came late, we were excited when they arrived. Visually, they were pretty. I can only describe our dishes and not that of our friends, as we didn't try them. For appetizers, we got the crudo. This was quite refreshing and bright ahi tuna with lots of citrus helped by pieces of creamy avocado. The hubs got the steak frites. Visually appealing, but the flavors did not match my eyes. The meat was cooked perfectly but was missing flavor and seasoning. The fries were also bland. I got the seared duck breast. This dish was visually stunning. However, it also did not meet the expectations set by the visuals. The vegetables and balsamic sauce were the heroes, while the duck breast was small and a third was just fat.

Food: 3 There weren't many appetizers to choose from, so we chose deviled eggs and bread. The deviled eggs were good, but they were just deviled eggs. The bread was startling small (but made sense with the low price). Ribeye Steak with Shiitake Mushrooms: The ribeye steak was cooked medium rare as requested, but I would have preferred a thicker cut. Although it tasted fine, it was literally just a piece of meat with some mushrooms on a plate. Most places with simple entrees like this have side options, but there weren't really any besides mac & cheese or fries. Tuna Salad Nicoise: This was probably the best savory dish of the night. It had a good balance of texture and flavor. This is what I expected Frenchish to be like - simple traditional dishes done well to make for a balanced and interesting dish. Saint Sebastian Burnt Cheesecake was excellent. It was not too sweet and had the right amount of tang. The burnt top added a nice texture change and charred flavor to a light dessert. Chocolate Burrito: If you want a rich and decadent dessert, look no further. This is a crepe wrapped around vanilla bean ice cream and covered in chocolate and caramel. It is fairly sweet but the peanuts add a crunchy texture and saltiness to balance it out. Service: 3.5 The host and waitstaff were excellent. The low score is for the timing of the food. We got appetizers and the salad for the table to share, but we finished all of those long before our entrees came out. I expect restaurants like this to have better timing, particularly since it wasn't super busy that night, with entrees coming out maybe 5-10 mins after appetizers are done. Ambiance: 4 The restaurant is nice. It has lots of seating but does not feel overcrowded, and it is fairly quiet. The biggest problem is that it is hard to find parking in Nob Hill.
