No seafood in ABQ is going to be EXCEPTIONAL- and this place is no exception . It was okay! Not bad at all, the sauce was good. I wish they did a better job cleaning the shrimp and removing the poop vein on the back of the shrimp. Would go back only for crab!

We have been twice recently. The entire family went and we had the calamari appetizer and one of…read morethe boils that had crab, shrimp and scallops with potatoes and corn. 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.

Stopped by after work and didn't look over the menu beforehand. My mistake! It's extremely…read moreexpensive for what was served. I was hungry for crab legs. The legs served were not very well cleaned and seemed of a lower quality. I was also told it was 2lbs but it didn't seem that way. The staff was nice and friendly. The restaurant looks nice. However I think in Albuquerque Red Lobster is a much better deal for crab legs. Or make them at home. In Tucson AZ the asian buffets on weekends have all you can eat legs for 27 dollars. I do not plan to return here.

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

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. It was crazy do not come here the food is decent but they obviously do not care about customer satisfaction or food safety.

I always leave full and to be honest I didn't think the bill was too pricey for a seafood experience, like I said, in a land locked state. Service has always been very professional and prompt. This one is in the rotation. Also make no mistake bring your wallet game to this splurge but worth it type spot.

Overall: Seared does an excellent job cooking protein but their sides and appetizers could use some…read morerefinement. 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.

I started with a Thai iced tea, which was absolutely delicious--perfectly sweet and creamy, and very refreshing. For an appetizer we ordered the potstickers, which came out hot and crispy with a tasty dipping sauce that paired really well with them. For my entrée I had the fried rice with tofu, and it was excellent. The rice had great flavor and texture, and the tofu was cooked nicely with a good mix of vegetables. My husband ordered another noodle soup dish that looked amazing as well--it had a flavorful beef broth, noodles, and herbs that smelled incredible. Overall, the food was delicious and the experience was really enjoyable. If you're looking for Thai food in Albuquerque, Thai Spice is definitely worth a visit. Five stars all the way!

The food was phenomenal. There's really no words:. Wow, I thought I had my favorite Thai place…read morechosen before, I was wrong. Thai spice is everything nice, and then some! The pineapple fried rice was the perfect balance spicy, sweet and savory. The rice had the perfect texture and the perfect balance of flavors, I just don't think anyone could have made it any better. I'm absolutely addicted, I feel the exact same way about the pad Thai as I do the fried rice. It's hard to say which one is my favorite dish here. The pad Thai had a little sweet too but not too much, just enough to really make all the other flavors come home. I have very rarely had a better pad Thai than this anywhere. It is a contender for every some of LA's best Thai food. The drunken noodles / pad see ew. Is good, really good actually. Not quite the same sentiment as the other two but I thought it was great and I would definitely be willing to eat it again. The only criticism I have is I wish their phone customer service wasn't on the weird side. I called and the lady first told me they don't have delivery, I asked her directly and said "not even on Uber Eats or DoorDash? Then she said maybe our website might have an option, so I went on there, it was some unknown third party company I never heard of. I was a little hesitant to put my card on it but I really wanted to try Thai spice so I took the chance, Sure enough the driver arrived on time; food was hot, and I enjoyed my experience. Hopefully their employees learn what they are able to do so the next customer doesn't walk away.
