    This was our first time dinning at Collette’s. The food was delicious. We had the scallops and the steelhead trout. All the food tasted wonderfully fresh and was creatively prepared. Annie and all the staff were attentive and pleasant.

    Upon moving to Albuquerque in 1980 I discovered and enjoyed what was Stuart Anderson's Black Angus a lot. Flash forward these years and several corporate owners (and bankruptcies) and while I've probably changed and aged a bit (sarcasm intended) happy to say that Black Angus is still very good and terrific value-for-money. I haven't lived in one of the areas where they have locations for years so this was almost nostalgic and happy to say that the new look was pleasant and needed and that service, food choices, plating, taste and pricing were all very good. Were I living in the area again, I'm certain that the loyalty program and promotions would make it even better but on a pure a la carte basis, it was a great steak, salad and potato feast.

    Service was friendly and not rushed. They use a team approach, which provides complete coverage of your needs. The food was excellence and the portions were generous, especially the excellent desserts. The remainders were taken from the table, package up, bagged, and returned to the table, ready to travel home. An excellent lunch dinning experience! Very rare nowadays.
