I was in town on business and told I had to try this restaurant before leaving town. It absolutely did not disappoint. The food and service were both fantastic but the atmosphere was the icing on the cake. I will definitely be back next time I’m in town.
El Pinto Restaurant impressed with its generous portions and top-notch service. The poke ribs were a standout, earning it a solid four-star rating.
The experience at the El Pinto Restaurant was great! Their stuffed sopapilla was great. I loved their nacho&salsa. They give regular sopapilla and you put some honey oh it was amazing dessert. Their green chile is spicy but I loved them. Loved this place!
One of the most beautiful Mexican restaurant ambiance you’ll ever experience! The staff was very friendly and attentive despite how busy they were. The food is alright and slightly overpriced but the dining experience is definitely worth the visit especially for large groups!
Came to ---- all the way from a very comfortable and intimate AirBnB, on good word from a local friend that its one of the best places in ABQ for authentic Mexican, and some signature New Mexico specialties,such as the reknowned crispy and spicy delicacy known as "Green Chili" (they eat it straight
A gem. The good is always good. We opted for steaks this trip. GREAT ambiance.
Love this place, it's the absolutely the best food!! Staying a week in ALB, I ate a lot of good food, this was the best and I went back almost daily! Just a wonderful experience. Read the back of the menu, it's a great story!
Get here early even on a Monday-Tuesday, due the hype being real. The gauc was legit but the fried Hatch strips were a must! Got combo number 3, it was delicious.
When you come to Albuquerque, you want to plan to eat at El Pinto! Their Mexican food is filled with New Mexican flavors and atmosphere is top notch. Despite a very busy restaurant the food was piping hot and staff were courteous.
My tacos fell apart after one bite, so I had to use silverware to eat the insides. Husband loved his Green Chile Chicken Enchilada.
Fantastic food, service and atmosphere. Our server was very kind and knew how to make conversation with her customers. Food portions are huge and drinks are strong. You get a lot for your money here.
Their salsa is delicious! And you buy some jars to take home! The venue is absolutely beautiful. We ate outdoors and very much enjoyed the shady patio.
We've been celebrating Christmas Eve with our family at El Pinto for years and we cherish this special restaurant. The atmosphere is unique and charming. The restaurant is large and the perfect venue for large gatherings. The service has always been wonderful, especially for larger parties. The food
Visiting from Texas while contemplating moving to Santa Fe area and stumbled upon this gem of a place! There was snow on the ground and we had our dogs so we were looking for a place to get food that had a patio with heaters. Not only did they have heaters and a fireplace but the little patio area w
Highly recommend EL Pinto. Food was delicious -- had the red rib appetizer and the green chili burger. Tried the green chili stew -- all were tasty. Service was great. And the atmosphere was very nice. A must go!
I took my family to eat at El Pinto after piquing their interest with the mention of their green chile fritters. I won praises at the first bite of those sweet, spicy and lightly breaded nuggets of deep fried perfection. I decided to get the red chile rubbed ribs and they were better than I remember
Chips were great and the Salsa was to die for. Had the stuffed sopapillas along with the Chilè rellenos. If you want to know it was Christmas style on both plates. Entrees come with a sopapilla but I feel like it was prepped about an hour ago. I will definitely return for some piping hot sopapillas
