Northwest Heights Restaurants

We visited Vernon’s on Friday and our dinner experience was amazing. My husband always enjoys the lamb chops with the Demi glaze. I had the  filet mignon and it was well seasoned and cooked to perfection! My daughter had the shrimp scampi and she enjoyed it so much. Our server was very attentive and recommended the bread pudding for dessert and I’m glad he did it was delicious. We will definitely be revisiting soon.

NM pasta was definitely not something we'd order again. The chicken tasted canned and had no heat at all. But the wine and fish and chips were good!

Our first time in Albuquerque and our second time at Lescombes. The food, wine, and service were all great.

Marty is a fantastic waiter! I noticed all of the staff were really on top of things and friendly, on one of the craziest nights of the year no less. Season’s has really come a long way and is one of my favorite restaurants now. The chef and cooks are knocking it out of the park. Their ice cream is homemade and some of the best you’ll have.

We had eaten at 2 other M'Tucci restaurants and this was our first time at the one closest to us (Coors and Montano, NW). We decided to try their Wed. night special at the bargain price of $30/person. We made a reservation about an hour ahead and were glad that we had. The restaurant was quite full. There were no choices on the special and no substitutions. I probably would not have ordered any of the dishes on the special but we were pleasantly surprised and pleased. The appetizer was a bruschetta topped with mussels. My husband adored this. I thought it was very good. It came with a small glass of a pleasant chardonnay. The main course was hangar steak with roast potatoes. I asked for mine to be cooked medium rare, I was told, you couldn't specify how you wanted it cooked, on the special. Our steaks came out medium rare and were exceptionally tender and flavorful. This was served with a small glass of Cabernet. Dessert was a pumpkin swirl cheesecake. This was the weakest of the courses but we still ate every bite. It was served with a moscato dessert wine. All the portions were small but we didn't leave hungry. Service was excellent in spite of how busy it was. We definitely will return for the Wed. special and will try other things as well. This may become our go to local restaurant.
