Apothecary Lounge

Not one complaint about this super chill restaurant/bar. The rooftop area offers views to the horizon. Everything we ordered was amazing. Their bourbon selection allowed me to try all kinds of tasty bottles. Quinn is the coolest person we met in Albuquerque...Hands down. He knows his shit & has mad people skills. That's hard to come by anymore these days. Thanks, bud! I highly recommend this place. It was also so conveniently located one floor above our room at Hotel Parq😎🤜🏼🤛🏼

What a beautiful development of a property! Hotel is Immaculate not a spec or spot of dust. The Lounge is wonderfully designed inside area has private booth. Outside rooftop is Gorgeously Designed 20 tables with room . Views are spectacular , good music, polite staff that is quick to the table . Night becomes even more Uplifted with the outside lighted trees, gorgeous endless views, and nice enough you could relax for hours if you wanted. Menu is defined and distinct with fun quirks. Try it its wonderful.

5 stars all the way around! It was Beautiful, comfortable and the staff was incredible! Front desk/person who met us at the front door of the hotel was kind and informative. Everyone working last night (11/08/25) was top notch! Alyssa was Super Awesome. We were celebrating mine and my mothers birthdays. It was a first time kind of experience for the 3 of us. Food: YES!! SO GOOD and worth every penny spent. The bacon wrapped dates?*chef's kiss*! The prickly pear margaritas?...we might be back just for those. The view? Stunning. We are So very thankful for the amazing experience.

Perfect spot for date night , no matter your age, whether you're new or seasoned couple. The cocktails are actually delicious and flavorful they didn't disappoint. P.S. there's a little wait if u want to access the rooftop.

Great views and delicious drinks! Food was a little pricey for what you got, but it was a date night for us so no biggie. Staff were very friendly but busy, probably understaffed like many other places.

We were staying at the hotel and knew we wanted to make a point to have a drink and see the sunset after our early dinner elsewhere. The atmosphere was stunning, intimate, relaxed, and with wonderful views. Being seated toward the back gave us an uninterrupted view of the setting sun, which made the whole experience feel memorable. Since we had already eaten dinner, we kept it light and ordered the mezze charcuterie board along with a few drinks. Both alcoholic and non, the drinks were well made! The food was also just right for our appetite, a few dips, some veggies, and a little spanakopita. They may rotate some of the selections seasonally, so it may be different in the future. Service was wonderful, and we never felt rushed in our time there. The designed was beautiful and they let the scenery do a lot of the talking. It's definitely intentionally designed for hanging out. Most of the food menu is little bites, and they do have mocktails for those who don't drink much. It was a beautiful experience and I would absolutely come here again if we lived in the area!

Apothecary Lounge is all about the view and it really is gorgeous. Perfect spot for open-air seating, beautiful sunsets, and a relaxed atmosphere. The food and drinks are pretty basic, but that’s not why you come here. It’s the kind of place to unwind, chat, and enjoy the scenery with good company.

This is by far my favorite spot for drinks and bites! The food is always fresh, the drinks are on point, and the vibe is perfect whether you’re with friends or just unwinding after a long day. Nora is my absolute favorite!!! ❤️ she’s so sweet, always has a smile, and remembers my order every single time! Makes me feel like VIP!!! Her service truly makes the experience even better. Highly recommend this place! 🍸

Goodness. This place is amazing! Hard to believe i was in ABQ. We arrived around 6ish and stayed inside till it cooled off a bit. We played cards and had a cocktail then headed out to watch the most spectacular sunset and city lights after. The service was outstanding! The food is mainly appetizers which was fine with me and all shareable! I highly recommend this place especially for out of town visitors The views were unparalleled. I was so impressed and happy. They have great cocktails too!

Attentive service, creative and peppy drinks, and an amazing view. These three ingredients plus you and your group equal a fun experience!!

I recommend checking out their happy hour! Prices are reasonable for a couple of drink options and snacks. I enjoyed my prickly pear margarita, and the red chile chips were a great little side. I went with friends on a weekday, and the weather was great with minimal crowding. Service was attentive, and the patio has the best views on these warm summer nights.

Wow! The view is great! Staff was friendly and seemed to want to look out for us. The girls are cute here, view of the city is great. Food was good and different. You can sit outside or inside. Try some signature margaritas while you are here.

Great service. I didn't try the food. The ambiance and views are the best in Albuquerque! The cocktails were delicious and unique but my only critique is that the drinks weren't very strong. It wasn't only me but my entire party noticed that. This is a great place to visit and one of my favorite spots now

I was there during a solo business trip, so I was dining alone. It was trivia night and I sat at the bar. The trivia made it easy for me to interact with other patrons and the atmosphere was fun. The food was mid - I had sliders and guacamole with corn that was more like corn with guacamole. They have several specialty drinks and mine was delicious. The other people at the bar tried a couple other drinks and everyone was raving about them so they must have been great. The service was quick and being at the bar reasonably attentive.

Great location. The outdoor rooftop deck has fabulous ambiance and prime view of sunsets and nighttime view of downtown and beyond. The menu is reasonable and has an array of offerings but the indoor bar and lounge layout is so confusing. It looks like part storage space and old 90s furniture for an office. It hints at ambiance and delivers something else. Needs an upgrade, even in the lobby on the way up. Strange tile covering the walls that isn't unified with the space. I wasn't there long enough to comment on service but it was adequate. It has potential, though.

You could not ask for a better view! The couches are super comfy and it really adds to the experience. There is a 1.5hr time limit, to make sure they can keep the flow going, so plan appropriately. The specialty cocktail menu is great and I'm ready to get there during happy hour! They have a tapas menu, unfortunately, I wasn't able to try it, but will next time. Superb date night location (men take note)!

I love this spot because of the amazing view of the city and the colorful beauty of the New Mexico skies! Which is why, I decided to propose to my fiancé on this rooftop. The manager was easy to get ahold of and was a pleasure to work with. I reserved a big spot on the balcony, for 18 people! The waitress was lovely! We were all very thirsty, she remained pleasant and attentive of all of us. This place will hold a special place in my heart forever.... If you happen to come by around sunset, you'll see why! Amazing cocktails, attentive service and the best ambiance!

This is not a place to go if you have more than 2 people total. I have been to this place a couple of times. I took a group of 10 here to enjoy the rooftop view of the sunset. Our plan was cocktails and snacks. The hostess sat all couples as they entered, but not us. She placed us in a nook off to the side. She kept telling me that she had a spot saved for us that would be available after one hour. We waited 2 hours with no results. The hostess said she allowed a couple to sit in the spot reserved for 10. The bar allegedly follows seating rules for the outside. I can tell you the "rules" are not enforced. Do not buy into their schtick. One rule is seating outside is limited to 1.5 hours. Bull! They do not enforce this. I complained to the manager, who said "So what ..." Clearly, the place is focused on couples only. Management knows they have a valuable view and does not care how guests are treated. We left and moved to the pizza place down the street where they welcomed my party even though the place was packed. Food was great. Service excellent. I will not return to Apothecary.

My best friend and I meet every year before Christmas at the apothecary. Our jobs bring us here often. All I'm going to say is Nora is the most amazing host if you are into the world of bourbon connoisseur. She is the best by far. From Pappy to Basil to Weller she knows her bourbon. Always a great host. Thank you Nora for three years of a great tradition! Can't wait for year 4. You always send us to a Merry Christmas. Ryan and Derek.

OK so the music is a little disco for me and the drinks are pricey. But the fact is, the landscape view and sunset sun on my face cannot be matched. I don't mind paying $15 for a cocktail if it's actually worth it, and every time I've been here they are. Tasty and well put together. Also try the curried green chili soup - It's out of this world!

Ugh where do I begin.... I've been coming here since it opened. I really really want to like it but it's just horrible. Bad service. Bad food. Overpriced drinks. So bougee it stinks.

3.5 rounding up to a 4. Sunsets are a big deal in ABQ, at least that's what comes up when you Google things to do in Albuquerque. Apothecary comes up when you do the obvious follow up search of 'places to see the sunset in Albuquerque.' Cocktails-cool Rooftop-cool Indoor/outdoor seating-cool Hotel bar- um... So, don't let it give you pause, you don't need to be a guest and it's a place that locals also come. The indoor space is smaller compared to the outdoor space, which would have been great but it was very windy the day of my visit so it kept people indoors. However, it was on a Sunday and it was all day Happy Hour, double great because it meant cheap drinks and bites until the sunset. I tried some of the local beers they had available here which were pretty good. Our bartender was a returned local who gave us some tips on things and places to see and do. The Prickly Pear margarita was tasty, according to my friend who tried that drink special out. Food wise we split the elote guacamole which was small but good, it's one of those things where it's an obvious but not done mash up. The chiles were ok, but after having tried some elsewhere maybe I just don't get the whole chiles thing. I didn't get it but they have a Paper Plane on their cocktail menu! Special props for having a pretty deep cut Pre-prohibition cocktail as a feature.

We ventured over to this roof top bar around 6:30 pm & waited inside as it was to hot on the roof top. The only negative is there is no shade We had some good drinks & ate from their small plate menu. The sliders & brussel sprouts were fantastic. Nora was our server and she was great We moved outside about 30 min before sunset. Sunset was fantastic see pics

I love this lovation. the Brussels sprouts were delicious. almost everything is delicious and the view is one of the best in the city!

I took my friend for a girl's evening out. And we got this place up first. We had so much fun with the food, drinks and ambiance. We tried 3 cocktails each, and each one was delicious and unique. We also tried about 4 of their small dishes, and they were delicious. We went early, so it was not crowded at all. Overall, a fun little bar to visit. my favorite drink was the French 75c which is a signature drink. I'm was very refreshing. my friend enjoyed their Primm Pouch, which is given like an adult Capri Sun. The Elote guacamole is Devine, so spring for the 8 oz size. The waitress was fun and bubbly as well.

I think the best part of the lounge is the outdoor area, which overlooks downtown ABQ. The bar itself is at the top of the hotel underneath. This service is stellar and the drinks were unique, although I found myself preferring the traditional ones like an old fashioned. Definitely come near sunset If you can and grab a seat outside. A great spot and would recommend to locals and visitors alike.

Saw this place down the street from my hotel and decided to stop in for a cocktail. It's located on the rooftop of another hotel with access through the lobby. First off the scenery is beautiful with downtown Albuquerque dominating your view. I had already eaten so I decided to try some of their signature cocktails and dessert. I tried the Watermelon Mejito (spelled just like this) which was not too sweet and delicious! The blueberry and lemon cake was very good. Will definitely come back when I visit again!

Love the views from the outdoor lounge. The service is super nice and are always willing to work with you! We thought we lost a wallet and even after hours called and they tried to look and contacted us early before they opened to let us know they looked. (We did find it elsewhere) Not to mention the food and drinks are super good! I enjoy my drinks and they're just the right size or portions when you just want small but fulfilling plate of food!

Service was great. Everyone is very friendly. View is pretty. Food and drinks were ok. 3/5

I'm impressed by the crafted cocktails, amazing atmosphere and fresh homemade ingredients in the food and drinks! Not to mention the excellent service and attentive staff!

Need a place to decompress after walking around downtown? As soon as you walk in the big glass doors you are filled with the aroma of essential oils and peace. Went during the afternoon and wasn't crowded. Ordered a kombucha (recommend by wait staff + CBD) berry, was fantastic! Clean, crisp flavor and not too sour. Order the yellow curry, very cute and plated, good size portion - and I'm a good eater! Will have to go back and try the CBD oxygen. Until next time!

I've been wanting to go to this place since I moved to Albuquerque so I came with high expectations. The best part of Apothecary is the view, it's definitely one of the best in the city. But if you're looking for great food and a view I'd recommend going to Brixens or Ten7. First off, the service was incredibly slow which was a pity because had it not been, my party would have probably ordered twice the drinks and small plates. And it wasn't busy when we arrived, there were three other tables occupied. The drinks were also a little disappointing and overpriced after all the hype. The prickly pear margarita is not only small but also bland. The Manhattan wasn't anything to rave about either. I did try some pretty stellar drinks though. Try the metamorphosis, you'll get a drink and a show. The pre-prohibition old fashion was also excellent. And their liquor and wine selection overall is really good. Food was good but not great. I recommend the bacon wrapped dates but they're basically $2 a bite. I also enjoyed the flat bread but one of the garlic cloves wasn't cooked which took me by surprise. Overall I think this place is good for tourism but locals can do better.

Waitstaff needs to learn customer service. Rudest staff I have ever encountered. They all seemed miserable and like they didn't want to be there. We had a large party so they figured their tip was included with gratuity and could care less about providing good service. The food was good and so were the drinks.

Don't waste your time/money!!! Pretentious roof bar...guests are left pretty much begging for a cocktail. Forget getting a seat on the open air roof deck-those are for the 12 year olds who don't have money. I tried two different appetizers, guacamole & chips and chicken skewers. The food was good, NOT great, good. Strangely, the bathroom in this "upscale joint" had no toilet paper. Bring your own I guess... Anyhoo, for beautiful sunset photos, I'd recommend the Sandia Peak tramway..the price is right, the views are to die for, and the restaurant can't be beat! Don't waste your time/money here.

One of my favorite "hidden" happy hour spots. Has one of the most gorgeous roof top bars to see all of beautiful Albuquerque. The bartender I had was amazing and was more of a mixologist and made beautiful, aromatic drinks, that were smooth.

One of the most beautiful views in Albuquerque! We arrived around 8 pm, which turned out to be perfect for the gorgeous sunset. We were sat immediately and our server came over 2 minutes later. The drink menu is fun and innovative. I got two drinks (the metamorphosis and bodhisattva) from the seasonal menu and they were both tasty! I didn't taste much alcohol but it seemed on par for a $12 specialty drink. We also got the mezze board, which was an assortment of Mediterranean dips, veggies, and pita bread. There were things on there to please everyone, but I wasn't necessarily a fan of every single thing. My friend got the carne tacos and let me try one- I thought it was delicious! Our waitress was great too. She was always refilling our waters and checking on us. Overall I think this is a great place! I would love to come again for happy hour to check out more of their food and I look forward to more seasonal menus!

The Apothecary Lounge is a happy hour no matter when you arrive. Especially, when Lauren is tending bar. Lauren is a master mixologist, who creates the most delicious elixirs right before your eyes. Recently, Lauren knowing my tequila inclination, created a drink that makes all my previous tequila drinks cry with envy..:) My fav lounge hands down. Thanks for reading. Avram

Great location Samuel was incredible staff friendly but the the manager jake made everyone uncomfortable we had to leave half way through are drinks because he was extremely rude. Felt like we were targeted by him because we have money. Will never come back

Everything was great but Jake was extremely rude literally swore at my gf I will not be back

Love this place. Very friendly staff. They have a really cool drink menu. Good food and awesome views of the city.

I had high hopes for this place and they didn't happen. My brother was visiting from out of town and near the airport so I wanted to check this late night lounge off of my to do list. We went upstairs on the fourth floor to the lounge to check in. The hostess were very nice and explained there was an extended wait for the patio (esp due to Covid) and a 15 -20 minute wait for in door. We got our name placed on the list and they told us they would text when ready. When we got our text we headed back up stairs (we had to wait in the hotel lobby on the first floor because of covid and they were at capacity). When we chose our table, everything went down hill from there. Our waitress came over and was really short with us- she seemed to have an attitude--I wanted to have the benefit of a doubt but it was confirmed before the night was over . We had waters and I asked for straws for my brother and I. She came back with one straw-- I said excuse me can we both have straws. Confused why any place isn't offering straws during covid, esp. if your asking us to wait in lobby due to covid. She seemed annoyed to walk two feet away and grab straws. I ordered the prickly pear because it seemed to be a favorite from other yelpers and my brother order a drink. I asked for sugar on my rim not salt. When my drink came out she realized she put salt on the rim and said she would remake it . She brought the drink back out and I asked for another straw and seemed annoyed by me asking for this for my drink. One my prickle pear looked nothing like the beautiful pink prickle pear drinks other Yelpers took pictures of --it was hardly pink and did not come garnished with the pretty flower. Also, remaking meant just pouring it in another cup. It was apparent due to the strong salt taste left in the margarita. Needless to say she thought I wouldn't notice-- I asked did you just re pour this? And she said yes but I can make you a new one now. I said no thanks I'll just take a regular margarita. She made the regular margarita and then came to the table rudely stating "hope you like this one" . She left and did not check on us anymore . The last straw was my brother ordered food and when part of his order came out the fries were cold. By then we were just ready to go. We canceled the food and ran out of there as quick as we could. This place is a no go!

This was the first place we found which was truly outdoors where we could enjoy the sun. There's no top to the outside area and they have happy hour from 3-6 daily. The wines are good for happy hour prices. The service isn't the best- it's slow and I think they might need to hire people with more experience. The food is just ok, we tried the appetizers. Come here to lie in the sun.

I've been wanting to go to this rooftop bar for the longest time! Honestly, I think what stopped me was that I was feeling a little intimidated! The bar is located in a cool-looking, boutique hotel with a history. I thought it used to be a mental hospital, but maybe it was a regular hospital? Not sure. Anyway, I thought the bar was going to be dressy and/or trendy and filled with 20-somethings. Now granted, we were there on a Monday, at 7pm, but the place was cute, comfortable, welcoming, and had a killer view! What was I thinking? This is New Mexico and one of the things I love about this state is that there are not a lot of pretentious people or businesses! Seemed like about half the people were hotel guests. There were 4 in our group and two actually were 20 years old. The menu had drinks and appetizers. No full meals and no desserts. Note to management: you really should at least offer dessert. It's a perfect venue to visit for late-night dessert and a night cap! I was the only one who didn't order the prickly pear drink. (Two were ''virgin'' style! ) They all liked the drinks and I have to say that they were very pretty! I can't remember what my drink was called but the main ingredient was Champagne and a secondary ingredient was some type of pear liqueur. All I tasted was the Champagne so that was a little disappointing. I'll try something different next time! Many of the drinks had ''bitters'' in them. I don't know what that is but it didn't sound like something I'd like. Our group had already had dinner so I can't speak to the food but it looked good! Clearly I'm going to have to go back and update this review! Oh, one more tip for management (that I know will never happen! ). There's a big double-billboard that is smack-dab in the middle of the photos of the views facing west. They're most visible at night, which is when many of your customers take their shots. I think you should rent the billboards and put up an ad for your hotel...with a black background! Win-win, right?

My husband and I tried this rooftop patio for the first time for date night. The view is gorgeous and the staff were attentive and engaged with everyone! I never had to ask once for a refill! The manager was seen the whole night asking if we needed anything. They have a pretty good happy hour (the prickly pear cocktail was refreshing). The reason they did not receive 5 stars is that there was a small portion in shade at 4pm (it was so hot!) more shaded areas would be nice, without blocking the view of course! And the food was mediocre... we had the cheese plate, sliders, salad, and chip plate. The queso and French fries were delicious, but the sliders were ok along with the cheesy bread. All in all... we will be back!

I booked this lounge for our company happy hour, and our server Norah KILLED IT. The happy hour is reasonable, the food is delicious, the drinks are great, and the service is incredible. Norah when above and beyond for us. You cannot beat the views here. It got a little chilly, and Norah moved us inside so we were more comfortable. I will definitely be back for date night!!

Nice 4th floor rooftop patio to enjoy Happy Hour (4-6) with panoramic view of Albuquerque. The HH snacks were limited so we enjoy some fries, sliders and Brussels Sprouts from the lighter fare menu. Service was spot on. The $8 fries duo was amazing! Sliders included 3 good sized and tasty ones. The Brussels Sprouts, however, were breaded/panko-ed and I wasn't crazy about that aspect. The included bacon bits appeared to have been tossed in the same coating. Personal preference on the BS , so I'm still going with 5* overall. PS. there were some comments about people hanging around the parking lot but we found no such thing at 5pm

Smart location, premium city views, it cannot get better than this! Seating is first come, first served. This was the perfect location for summer solstice - there were even ballpark fireworks off in the distance. I knocked a star because the service could have been a smidge better. If we're going to pay $10+ per beverage at least remember our drinks and us! She seemed young, maybe inexperienced, so that didn't all hinder a night at Apothecary Lounge. We're very interested in their small plates. The seasonal drinks are fantastic.

Great views from the outside seating, awesome food/drinks and good vibes. Went on a weekday and was seated immediately. Bartender was phenomenal and even recommended other places to check out since we aren't from here. Go check this place out.

We have been to Apothecary 3x since COVID-19....each experience was the exact same. The food and views are great, as I'm sure other reviews will describe so I will cut to the chase and the reason I'm giving 1 star after giving this place three attempts at redemption. The servers could not be more rude. When we first arrived we were told that the wait was an hour and a half, and before we could respond the host (Brian) added, "you could always go somewhere else". We waited (25 min) because we had friends meeting us there. We asked what was in the "house Old Fashioned", to which our server replied "a house blend and house whiskey ". Wow. Thanks for the useful information. Our server brought out waters and slammed them each on the table - after holding them by the rims. Each time we asked for something he wouldn't even respond and seemed annoyed at our very presence. While still eating our check was brought out. My boyfriend extended his hand for him to place it in, and instead the server slammed it on the table next to him. At 11:55pm someone else came around to announce they were closing and locking the doors in 5 min. Not a "hey guys, we will be closing in 5, please finish your food and cocktails".... Literally a "we close and lock the doors in 5 minutes". Not a single soul working on that rooftop has customer service skills, etiquette, or any idea how to just be polite. So if you like being treated like a nuisance, this place is for you! Have super low expectations and you will still be disappointed- guaranteed!! The food and views are great, it's a shame the hideous service ruins it all.

Apothecary lounge is a super happy hour stop with a beautiful sunset. I've had a wonderful experience each visit!

The list of house drinks is amazing. There are combinations I have never thought of when making drinks. They also have some local liquors to add to the choices. The view from the roof is amazing at sunset and the view of the city is one of the best I have seen in the downtown area. You also get a view of the mountains. Price wise the drinks are a little more than most places but well worth the visit with friends on occasion.

I've here twice and thought I would come back. Maybe should have stayed in. Not many people there mainly groups and couples. I had ordered the sparkling French drink which is made of vodka, chambord, lime, and champagne. I had that drink somewhere else which became my favorite. Thought I would compare taste and craft. I was hoping for awsome, instead not so much. The drink is to be lightly put together in a class, then champagne poured right on top. Sadly, the drink was shaken which makes carbon takes over the flavor and does the opposite actually makes it watered down. It's like when you shake a soda it goes flat. Hence my drink went flat. Service was meh. Mainly the girls were in back talking and in front talking about thier Bfs. Please save it for when others do not have to know about it. All I'm stating is could have been better especially being upscale or having the presence.

After being warned from other restaurant owners & other locals about not going to this place we still wanted to experience it on our. How unfortunate they were right... Very sad that the service staff have an opportunity to work at a beautiful roof top location and ruin it being unhappy and rude. From the short male manager, female server with dark hair, & female bartender with dark hair was just so rude from the beginning. No hello, no hi from all the staff.. they speak about guests rudely right at the POS, standing around with all just mad faces on, including the manager. I spoke to some other people there and they agreed the same & definitely don't want to come back because of it. Only plus was the female blonde host on crutches that was kind. Very unfortunate because we were looking to host a post wedding there but we knew our family & friends from out of town would not be treated well & local friends and business owners kept saying to not even go there. Should of listened.

It's really all about the view. I'm in town for the Balloon Festival and wanted a spot with a magnificent view and this is it! Servers were friendly and efficient. I had the prickly pear margarita and that was tasty. Also tried the guacamole (fresh and yummy) and the chicken skewers (cooked well but skimpy on the meat, sauce was ok). All and all a great experience!

We had an amazing evening here. Our server Gabrielle was very attentive...the small plates were amazing (get the Brussels sprouts!) and the atmosphere was perfect! Did I forget to mention the awesome cocktails??!!

I stopped by because of the pictures and the rooftop. From the moment I exited the elevator, through drinks and bites, my experience has been tops. I love gins and I like Plymouth eat of all and Apothecary has it. The Arsenic & Old Lace with Plymouth. Totally magnificent. Then the Fried Pickles with Cajun dipping sauce. OMGYum. Next up was waffle batter dipped chicken tenders. Delish. Finished up with a Bronx made with Plymouth. April was attentive and knowledgeable. And totally nice. I highly recommend a stop in. Or three.

This is a challenging review - on the one hand, the view was incredible. On the other hand, this building will forever be known as the old mental hospital that used to be a tuberculosis hospital. My fav things beyond the view (and the gratitude for revitalized city infrastructure) - parking is easy and the service was great. My not so fav things - the drinks were just fine but still surprisingly high for happy hour in Albuquerque (no dis, Burque) - about $9/drink. There weren't any umbrellas to shield my eyeballs or skin from the sun (although, it was windy so maybe they were hidden) and the decor was...como se dice...cheap looking. I don't know why the furniture bothered me so much but it seems crazy (to me) to charge a premium for drinks and then want me to sit in an aluminum chair. The fries were decent but the plating was questionable - they fanned out 3 leaves of spinach under the fry holder. I'm sure there is some marketing science behind adding greenery but it just looked kinda sad. However, I'm giving it four stars because the view during the sunset of our beautiful New Mexico skies overlooking our adorable little downtown is reason enough to go.
