We had to extract information from the micromanager, like what the specials were for the night. It's reasonably nice and there are a lot of TVs. There can be a lot of smoke at the bar, so be prepared. There is a jukebox so music is at the choice of anyone with a few bucks. The Council Room at Sandia is better. But Joe and Harry are very good bartenders, ask for them by name. Also ask for a Tennessee Sour, Eagle Margarita, and the Vesper martini. All are quite good.

This was my first time coming to Ibiza. It was a great way to end First Friday, much calmer than the rest of downtown. It was honestly kind of fun, being up on the patio while the rest of downtown was chaos with all the people enjoying art walk and cars driving by. So you can't go to a Spanish bar and not order a Sangria. So I ordered the sangria with sparkling wine because that just sounded refreshing after the walk over. It was fabulous, I'd happily go back and try all the variations. Augie is super great and I appreciate his willingness to drum up a mocktail for a friend who doesn't drink alcohol but should also get to enjoy something fun! I wish more places would accommodate that.

The Copper Lounge had incredibly unique cocktails and the service was unmatched. We sat at the bar and were so impressed by the cocktail menu - what a creative concept!

Not only did they work hard but they were very friendly and extremely knowledgeable of the spirits they were serving. We didn't try to food here, but several excellent cocktails that didn't disappoint! I hope for another trip back to ABQ so I can stop in and check out the latest inventive cocktails. Very much worth a visit!

We had been few years back for our anniversary and ever since then we had wanted to go back. The waiter did his best to gather extra chairs and we were able to all fit at the round table. To my amazement, we had found a spot for the night to celebrate my birthday. The waiter asked what we had wanted to start with besides water for everyone. We got a bottle of red wine started and some margaritas along with a manhattan. Then afterwards couple of fish tacos and some carne asada arrived. We had great drinks and tasty food. Everything is delicious and so much great fun vibes. A definite memorable birthday to remember at this small but fantastic bar. Here's to coming back to the Dragon Room bar sooner.

Charming Patio, Decent Food, Better for Drinks Than Dinner…read more The patio is lovely. Cool, shaded, and surrounded by greenery. It feels tucked away and cozy, with heaters for chillier evenings. This is definitely a mezcal focused bar, so keep that in mind. Margaritas lean smoky thanks to the mezcal preference, which might be unexpected if you're used to a more traditional flavor... The chips and guacamole were just okay. The guac was overly whipped, and the salsa lacked spice. I had the asada tacos. good, though a bit dry. Service was a bit hit or miss, took some effort to get the waitstaff's attention. If I came back, it would probably be for happy hour rather than a full dinner. The vibe is great for drinks and a light bite, but not a must-visit for the food.

Next time I would do only chili strips, the pickles weren't really working for me but that's a personal preference. The chicken wings were out of this world delicious. I would come back for those alone!!! They were tiny but OMGosh, so delicious. Juicy. Flavorful. Perfectly cooked. I also tried the baklava cheesecake which had a tremendous amount of coconut flavor from somewhere I could not identify and did not like at all. Bartender was gracious enough to take it off my tab and I tried the lava chocolate cake. It did not lava and I was very disappointed. Next time I will stick with cocktails, chili strips, & chicken wings. I didn't get to enjoy the rooftop patio but that was only because Mother Nature had plans to open up the sky and boy did she ever!! This place is definitely a vibe & would totally recommend it.

I ordered the Niko Gyro and honestly wasn't quite sure what to expect. It definitely wasn't what I…read morewould consider a traditional gyro, but that ended up being part of the experience. The dish had a creative twist, with great flavors and textures that worked surprisingly well together. The crispy potato strings, pickled onions, and tender meat made for a unique and enjoyable meal. The atmosphere was welcoming and lively, which added to the overall experience. The restaurant had a great energy, and it was clear that people were enjoying themselves. It was a little noisy for my personal preference, but that's more about me than the restaurant itself. Overall, I enjoyed both the food and the ambiance. If you're looking for something a little different and are open to a fresh take on a gyro, the Niko Gyro is definitely worth trying. I'll be back to explore more of the menu.

Dorothea's is a nice white table cloth restaurant that feels upscale but still homey enough to bring our soon to be 2 yo grandson. We had: Steamed clams 5/5: The clams were prepared, presented and flavored well. There were 2 clams that didn't open so it would have been nice if they just removed them instead of tempting us to pry them open (which would be bad clams) but the other clams were so good we wanted to open them! The sauce was a little too wine-y for me but I can see how some people would enjoy dipping the bread they give you into it. Crab mac and cheese 5/5: Wow. The bechamel sauce was so rich and creamy! Good chunks of crab made this mac and cheese so decadent! Greek salad 4/5: This was fresh and tasty but I was a little surprised by how small the salad was considering all the other dishes have such an amazing price point! It would serve once person well. Lobster pasta 5/5: Nice spicy kick that hits you later. Good chunks of lobster and the pasta was so light! I forgot to ask if it was fresh pasta or not. Maybe a question for our next visit! Niko gyro 5/5: the meat was good but what made it amazing was all those nice shoestring fries on top! The fries also had some kind of spicy pepper on top that gives it the extra kick! Traditional gyro 4/5: This was just your traditional gyro with fries. It's good but it doesn't seem fancy! Overall I love this place! The price point is amazing and if we have the time I would definitely like to come again with the family. The service was great with our waiter David filling our water glasses without us having to ask. He also cleared the table and was easy to talk to. Love this place!

Place signs around outdoor seating area notifying guests to place drink orders at the bar. 2. Designate at least one person to take orders at tables indoors. This should be easy to track based on who has menus and who doesn't. 3. Set up an online ordering system and place QR codes on tables for easy ordering. Give option to place orders at right or left side of bar. My aunt, mother and I were ignored multiple times by multiple staff after we asked at bar if we should order there and were told to take a seat and someone would be with us shortly. Two other tables that came in after us were served. I then had to go up to the bar to ask to pay as no one came by again even after all our drinks were empty for at least 10 minutes. Again multiple staff walked by us multiple times. Hard not to read into the reasons we were ignored specifically when several groups were being tended to.

The massive mirror behind the bar makes you feel like you've stepped into a classic Western movie, adding to the unique charm of the space. Their signature Sage Margarita is a must-try. The bar is filled with the subtle aroma of burning sage, which creates a memorable experience before you even take your first sip. The cocktail itself was delicious and unlike anything I've had before. My personal favorite, however, was the Mezcal Paloma. Our bartender, TJ, crafted it to perfection. Watching him work was like watching a magician at his craft, every drink was made with skill, attention to detail, and genuine passion. Between the beautiful setting, creative cocktails, and exceptional service, Secreto is a place I would gladly return to on my next trip to Santa Fe.
