Sawmill Market is a fantastic, vibrant culinary destination that offers an incredible variety of…read moreethnic cuisines in Albuquerque's historic Sawmill District just north of Old Town. Located in what was once a working lumber yard dating back to the turn of the 20th century, the striking industrial-yet-modern design brilliantly pays homage to the property's rich history with high ceilings, open structures, and authentic architectural touches. Inside, you'll find choices from more than 25 local vendors -- Vietnamese, Japanese/sushi, Thai, New Mexican, Mediterranean, artisan burgers, salads, sandwiches, fish & chips, local craft beers, wines, and specialty cocktails. There is truly something for every preference and the options can accommodate almost any dietary restriction imaginable. The layout features plenty of comfortable indoor seating, plus a fantastic outdoor space (called "The Yard") that offers extra seating, a lawn area, and a stage for live events. Finding a parking spot in the two off-street lots adjacent to the building can be difficult during peak hours, but with a little patience, you can usually find a spot in one of the lots or on the street.

Was in Albuquerque for a bit and this was the most recommended spot to show up on TikTok, so I…read moredecided to give it a go. Upon arrival it wasn't that busy since I went in the middle of a weekday. Wait times weren't bad at all. The first place I knew I wanted to try was Tulipani Pasta, everyone was raving about the place. I got the green chile chicken pasta. I paid $18. It took about a good 15 minutes for my pasta to be cooked. When I went to pick it up, my pasta was just sitting there in the open. No lid or anything- even though there was a stack of lids right there. This particularly made me uncomfortable because this place has so many horse flies it's unreal. It's almost like an infestation they're everywhere. Doesn't matter if you eat inside or outside, they will be there. I don't even want to think about how many flies touched my food. With that being said- the pasta was good, like really good. Definitely a 9/10. It was hot, it has spices, I never had a pasta like it, I can see why it was so recommended. Next I went to crème de la crème to try their cannoli's everyone raved about. The cannoli was good, a solid 7/10. I got a box of 4 for $20. Overall Sawmill is very cute, it's a great place for photo-ops but it's also a bit overpriced. The prices being charged at the market are not the same prices these restaurants show on their websites. For example for Tulipani I paid $18, but the website shows $13.95 for the same pasta. I believe the up charge may be due to this being a tourist spot. Even though it's not cheap, the food is good. Again just be weary of all the horseflies.

I'll be honest. This place was really cool the first time I visited it but this time around you…read moreknow I'm a bit a disappointed. The vendors I stopped at during my stay were not very friendly. I asked for the code to the restroom and the staff was asking me to show them a receipt and telling me the restrooms were for paying customers only. I understood but when I tried explaining that I was a customer because I ate at the stackers they demanded I show them a receipt. Had I known I was going to need proof I wouldn't have thrown my receipt. I told both the vendors I spoke with I'm not digging in the trash to find my receipt. I got so frustrated after the second vendor that I just gave up and left. I don't think I'll be returning here for a while.

The place was nearly empty, which made it easy for everyone to quickly get what they wanted to eat, and we found a table that accommodated our large group. There was some initial confusion for those who had never been here before, but everyone figured it out quickly. I did receive some incorrect information about where to find a glass of water. One of the food vendors pointed me to the bar, but no one was working, so I ended up going without water. I'd recommend adding some water fill stations throughout the space so guests can stay hydrated without having to hunt down a glass of water.

Nevertheless, that didn't dampen the experience. I got to see what the food park is all about when I walked up to Stackers Burger Company food truck to place an order. The park is part drive-thru, part grassy picnics, and picnic tables. Cuisines PRF Park offers are Japanese by Mobiyaki, Paraguayan and New Mexican by La Cocina de Ana, smashed burgers by Stackers Burger Co., coffee and espresso by Dawn Patrol Coffee, and Viet Flavor. Pacific Rim also hosts lots of events there. This coming Thursday (June 1), they will have live music by Andy Mason from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. PRF Park is family-friendly offering several family events like their Family Fun Day, 4-8 p.m., Sun., June 4. Check out their Father's Day Eat and Shop! 10 a.m. - 4 p.m., Sat., June 17. Sixty-plus vendors will be there. If you want to have a picnic but don't want to cook, head over there. The park is open 11 a.m. to 8 p.m., Tuesday through Sunday. Though Dawn Patrol Coffee is open from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. They take drive-thru and walk-up orders.

My husband and I finally decided to try this place since the owner of Sushi Xuan recommended it…read more Boy, what a disappointment! First off, we ordered the vegetable egg rolls for an appetizer, I do not recommend them since they are frozen ones. They were tasteless while the interior of these rolls were mushy, though the duck sauce was quite tasty it could not overcome these appetizers. Our entrees came next, my husband asked about the serving size and he was told a plate only fed one person, not true. The plate serves two. Anyway, the Kung Pao Chicken has really good flavor, was spicy and served with a side of steamed white rice. My husband's entree was Orange Chicken and nothing spectacular about it. But what will keep us from ever going back was that as we sat in the restaurant eating I started to smell cigarette smoke. It became more pronounced and I realized they were smoking in the kitchen and had the door open to where we were sitting. With that revelation my husband quickly got us out of there...the cigarette smoking inside the kitchen is a total dealbreaker.

5 stars for Chef Nath's food, 3 for Chomp Chef Nath's been…read morearound Santa Fe in differing modes for years. Her food is superb and it is great she has a full time location for us to savor it. We went on New Year's Eve, and she had a special fried rice with huge shrimp and crab meat that was to die for. Yeah, $40 for one plate but it was huge and super delicious. We also had her Turmeric noodles with chicken, also outstanding. While very busy, Chef Nath came by our table to make sure we were happy; such a lovely person. Thai food in Santa Fe is hit or miss, usually miss. Not with Chef Nath; she is fantastic, and we look forward to coming back. Maybe we can sample her amazing soup at the next "Souper Bowl." Now, in terms of the rest of Chomp, it has almost as many 'misses' as hits. I tried a slice of pizza a co-diner offered me, which was very good. But the wait time for a pizza was 40 minutes! This illustrates with Chomp, and you'll hear this from many other reviewers: it takes far, far too long to get your food than you might expect. If you are OK at the bar (we are not drinkers, so no), you may not mind waiting a long time to eat. But expect this to be the case. Early (5PM), not many people, but we were still told a pizza would take 40 minutes. Chef Nath's food took about that long, but it was worth the wait. The issue is, unlike a restaurant where the timing of ordering is under control, at Chomp, someone may have placed an order for a lot of pizza or Thai, and you're going to wait, wait, and wait. The BBQ place was dead; I don't think I saw one person order from that station. The reviews I read may be the clue, but I would expect they would be able to serve food quickly IF it is good; I don't know, didn't try, and never will. I doubt we will go back to Chomp, other than take out of Chef Nath's food again. It's a nice venue, but you can call it a food hall and food court (which you can find at the Mall); I'm not that impressed with the concept. I am an old fart, so maybe for the younger crowd, this is 'cool'. However, the fact that Chef Nath offers her outstanding food is a reason to go there.

There was no bok Choi, as I would have expected. Before they remodeled I would have given this food orders preparation out of the kitchen a 3 or 4. Now is is a 2 minus! Now when I come back again, I will try a different variety of food, like a burger and fries, because this was a stone cold loser.
