Here's an underdog

I didn't physically visit this restaurant; my father brought back dinner. I actually really loved the fettuccine Alfredo. It was very creamy, very buttery, and the chicken was cooked well. I didn't have any of the pizza, but the pasta made this restaurant grow on me. Next time I'm in Albuquerque, I'll check the place out myself.

Oooh, boy. Here comes the storm:

We ate here on the way to Albuquerque, and it took them an hour to get our food out, which is not acceptable on a road trip. The food was also overcooked and dry too. Go to the BBQ joint across the street.

Yeah, in the words of Gordon Ramsay, for my pork sandwich, all I can say is, "It's drrrryyyyy."

Having to wait an hour for our food when we are on a 10 to 12 hour drive and then getting mediocre food is unacceptable. Even Whataburger is better because it's more convenient.

My Tripadvisor review for Antiquity Restaurant in Albuquerque, NM.

I ate here again last night, and it's still good. I like their warm bread and the warm hospitality, and their soup.

I got a Chateaubriand to split with one of my friends, and it was very good. Nice and tender, with a good au jus. I also liked the potatoes that came with it.

I said it before, I'll say it again, this is not a restaurant to miss in Albuquerque.

My Tripadvisor review for Padilla's Mexican Kitchen in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

This joint is absolutely delicious. There's not much in the decor, but there really doesn't need to be. If I had to advise a dish to go with, get one of the sopapilla dishes with the chiles. You can use honey to cut down on the spice, thankfully.

And on that note, the sopapillas here are the best. Just keep in mind, there can be a long line for lunch. When I came here on my last visit, the line was almost out the door. A few minutes in, and we get some mighty-fine New Mexican food. 

Tip: For chile dishes, order "Christmas" to get both red and green. Hard for me to figure out which one's my favorite.

This is one of those places you need to eat at when you make it to New Mexico.
