    Unfortunate the outdoors patio was closed owing to whether. Still, the indoors experience was good. Service was excellent, liked our drinks, the Chili, salad, enchiladas and more. Decor is very nice (ceiling is cool). And they had live entertainment. Lots of free parking in front.

    The service was great but the restaurant was dirty. The drinks arrived quickly and weren't very strong. The food took a very long time and only 1 of our 3 dinners was satisfactory. Pricey for an old, dirty poor meal. Do not recommend.

    Unfortunately did not enjoy our meal although it was rated well. Food was lukewarm on arrival to table. Green Chilli soup was more of a hamburger soup. Red enchilada sauce was great. Overall was expecting more

    We used open table to make a reservation but the restaurant was not even open at the time of the reservation. The little fat waitress at the podium was rude when, not just myself, but others who also made reservations where shocked to find out they were closed. The option for 2pm was on the list all the way to even 730pm.

    My party arrived at 2 PM with a reservation. It was a birthday luncheon. The manager of the restaurant told us that she was closing at 2 PM and she could not see this. You guys need to get your act together I will never eat there or use this service again

    Unfortunately this Garduños location is very under staffed. We were greeted seated, and our drink order was taken. After that our server never came back, we waited patiently since we noticed they were understaffed. We asked a young man to send our server over. Our server came out and instead of coming to check on us she went to the older couple next to us and apologized for the wait…. we waited a long time sitting there to have our food order taken. Finally after 1.5 hours we decided to to leave.

    The restaurant itself was very nice. Staff was very friendly, and we enjoyed the music. The food was not at all warm when it was delivered to our table. Friend’s recommended Garduno’s because they have eaten in the other location and said the food was excellent. That was not our experience at all. Chicken tacos were very dry, Chilerelleno’s were tough and cold. The restaurant was not busy in a Friday night!

    Garduno's was a Albuquerque institution when I lived in the area years ago. I was glad to see that they are still around after some problems in the past. Still have some of their unique staples. And their margaritas are still tops. I had a great evening.

    Table next to us outside was large and the ladies were very very very loud. Killed the mood for my family and me trying to enjoy a nice dinner after a long day of work. All but 2 cooks walked out so the menu was less than half what it normally was, and there was no mention that this was the case until we asked. Overall, not the next experience.

    The setting of this Gardunos in the Hotel Albuquerque in Old Town is so sweet. We enjoyed dining here and there was a fantastic guitar player/singer serenading the room. Everything was "good" - but nothing really stood out as exceptional. Well, except maybe the margarita - it was delicious. We would definitely dine here again!

    Fourth of July and only two servers (one inside & one outside) on the schedule. Inside server had zero organizational skills. Order had to be corrected three times. Margarita ordered at first encounter and had to ask four times before delivered in the middle of the meal. Hostess had a pleasant voice but a nasty passive aggressive attitude. The restaurant was not packed. Maybe six tables outside and ten inside. Meals were blah. No flavor, no heat in the chile, just lackluster. Should have gone to Sadie’s.

    Service was the issue and the menu items were not explained especially to categories of spiciness of New Mexico cuisine. One of our friends was not happy as she specifically ask the waiter that hot spicy food was a problem and for direction of how to order. She had to pick things out of her food. The waiter was not experienced or did not care ( l lean to inexperienced) Anyway it could have been better and at least comp her the wine.
