We wish our visit to Bar Uno wasn't as brief; unfortunately we didn't have much time this evening to enjoy your ambiance. The time we were there was great, we decided the pit stop to your bar made our evening memorable. We had walked in earlier to Anodyne which was fun with pool tables and lots of laughter, however we wanted something just a bit more intimate. We chatted with some locals that we would love to socialize - they directed us to Bar Uno ensuring an intimate experience. Thank you for the welcome, the delicious Mezcal Paloma with Tahine and your authentic Old Fashioned, my husband loved it.

I enjoyed the cozy interior and the bartender was friendly and welcomed us as soon as we entered. We each had two drinks, which were unremarkable.

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.

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.

Upon entering, I was delighted by the marvelous decor and ambiance... terrific artwork and well appointed with tropics-themed cane furnishings. Very romantic and chic. Also, very dark. The lighting was so dim we had to illuminate the menu with the ol phone flashlight. How glamorous! Well, it was also nearly too dim to eat by. Admittedly, middle aged eyes are less keen than youthful ones, and yet... truly, I will go back in daylight hours next time, when the gorgeous skylights can compensate for the scanty lighting. The server was prompt and perfectly modest in zeal and conversation. He saw to it that we received our order in appropriate time. Now, this is a tequila and mescal place, but I ordered from the specialty Michelada list, a cucumber lime version that sounded divine. I do love a Michelada, but sadly, this one was so abundantly salted that I couldn't finish it. (And I'll finish most beverages.) Very big disappointment. I'm sure any number of drinks on the menu are fabulous, but I can't recommend this one. I ordered the tuna tostada, and my husband got the birra nachos. The tostada had fresh tomatoes and cilantro, and the fish was very good and fresh (poke style). The seasoning left something to be desired, though. It was spicy enough, but I do wish there'd been salt and pepper shakers on the table. My guacamole-averse husband gave me the spoonful from his nachos, so that livened it up. As for the nachos, he seemed to approve. It was mostly cheese and meat (minus the spoonful of guac), but he said more ample tomatoes and jalapeños would have overpowered it anyway. I'd describe my food as that sort of high-society modest flavor - minimalist seasonings in favor of purist flavor from the base ingredients. Indeed not comfort food, but great for a lighter mouth and tummy feel. All in all, the flavor experience was so-so. However, the atmosphere is super solid. For that, I'd go back and try something new. During daylight hours, that is.

The decor is absolutely beautiful, we spent a good amount of the time there discussing how cool the art was and how great the space looked overall. I tried two different drinks, first a mango michelada and then the pink man's last word (I think that was the name) and I enjoyed them both. The second was definitely more my preference because it was fruity and sweet but also had some smokiness from the Mezcal. The nachos were absolutely amazing. I will be back for those alone. We tried the Al Pastor and seriously they were the best nachos I've had in a long time. I do wish they would expand their cocktail menu just a little bit. I am a sweet drinker and would love to see a few more options. Service was great, I don't remember the name of our bartender, but he had longer hair and he was very attentive.

The establishment boasts a truly distinctive aesthetic recalling a refined Southern charm reminiscent of Georgia that immediately commands attention. The space is remarkably well-appointed, offering expansive outdoor seating alongside an interior that is pristine, polished, and spotlessly clean throughout. I settled into a lovely private nook, perfectly positioned to enjoy the welcoming, lively atmosphere around the bar. The hospitality was top-tier from the moment I arrived gracious, attentive, and effortlessly polished. To celebrate a midday Friday, I selected their House Paloma, which arrived artfully presented, wonderfully crisp, and expertly balanced. For my main course, I ordered the Korean Fried Chicken Bowl, which proved to be an absolute culinary triumph. The chicken was prepared to perfection, delivering a vibrant, fiery kick of spice that elevated the entire dish. Between the immaculate cleanliness, standout decor, magnificent cuisine, and stellar service, Sixty-Six Acres earns full marks from me. A marvelous discovery I shall most certainly be returning

I was immediately impressed by the staff. you couldn't ask for better care and warmth. we participated in any activities that were offered and made new and lasting friendships along the way. thru those years there were difficult times. I guess the most difficult was the pandemic when we were limited to movement within the building but you would be amazed attn lengths the staff went to to keep us happy. delicious meals were delivered to our door ( we ordered from our menu's ). Games were played at each door if you wanted to participate and there were fun prizes. The weekly wine socials were brought to your door. Meanwhile, all the necessary health precautions were taken. The apartments were thoroughly cleaned weekly. When necessary, immunization clinics were brought to each resident and if you wanted to participate, they made it easy. Eventually that passed and life got back to normal but it's hard not to recognize the professional handling of that difficult time. The building was renovated and mad lovely for us. If anything needed to be updated, it was life moved along smoothly and I must admit, to my surprise. There were many staff changes but amazingly, the staff remained warm and caring. Deep down, I can forget that they are dealing with many different personalities and sometimes elderly people can be a tad grumpy. The loving staff simply overlooks the bad days. Food is always an issue but the menu is large with choices for everyone. If that isn't enough, there's a really great Bistro you don't want to mis. The activities are numerous and year round. Entertainment is provided on a regular basis and outings take place twice a week. All you have to do is signup. I can't close this without mentioning that my husband passed away in 2022. it was a difficult time made easier by the Fairwinds staff and especially the management. Being100% deaf and disabled, my family wanted me to move to assisted living despite my reluctance. Doralei warmly helped me make that decision to move and very graciously helped me find a comfortable apartment. The move was smooth and the golden treatment given by the health and Wellness staff has been perfect so I have to admit that it was the proper move. When I need appointments, the transportation service is wonderful and I can't forget to mention the wonderful drivers. Do you see how fortunate I furl that all those years ago, we made the decision to move here it was the perfect one. You can't go wrong.
