   | Albuquerque Restaurants near Century Rio Albuquerque - North ValleyBest of Burque 2009 (Best Lesbian Bar):
Exhale has live entertainment, a smokin' dance floor, naughty drinks and jalapeño poppers. Outside of a planet with pink clouds and rivers of chocolate, populated solely by lovely lesbian ladies, what more could a girl ask for?

You have enough to worry about without the stress of not knowing where your next baked good is going to come from. Have a buttery fruit pastry, a slice of pie or buy a loaf of that nice, spongy white bread to take home and tear off chunks to stuff in your mouth in a secret corner of the kitchen. We won’t tell. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010) Add a Review If it’s salt-of-the-earth, tried-and-true New Mexican favorites you’re after, hit up a Garcia’s in your area. It’s got daily specials, breakfast anytime and even a "gringo menu" that’ll fill you up without depleting your wallet. The huevos rancheros with green chile will leave you licking the plate and contemplating seconds. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010) View/Add Reviews [ 1 ] Mario’s is great in the afternoon after the lunch crowds and before dinner for any size of meal. The sandwiches, calzones and pizzas are far more substantial. You and the guys just come in from a rousing game of golf? Stop in the afternoon and share Mario’s mega meat pizza or the
gumba
nachos. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010) Add a Review Thick slices of beef, tender barbecued chicken and unbeatable cornmeal-dusted catfish are just a few of the items that make this a premier restaurant to blow your diet sky-high. But what really pushes this place over the edge are the fantastic side dishes: like addictive fried okra; smoky, salty greens; and tender black-eyed peas, which are prepared with the same reverence and care as the main attractions. We forbid you from leaving without first ordering a slice of superb sweet potato pie or a piping-hot bowl of cherry cobbler à la mode. Aw, what the hell—just get both and die happy. If you’re in a hurry, you can order to-go items from a side pickup area. Closed Mondays. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010) Add a Review  Paddy Rawal's OM: Fine Indian DiningMon-Sat Lunch 11 am-2:30 pm

Paddy Rawal's OM: Fine Indian Dining has just moved into the space vacated by Annapurna. Their menu features primarily Northern Indian fare with touches of the Southwest, such as in their chipotle-spiked grilled shrimp. This should add some new spice for North Valley diners.

Sun: 10am-9pm (subject to change) Cuisine: New Mexican
Walking into Sadie's is like walking into your rich old New Mexican aunt’s house. The food smells good, the atmosphere is comfortable and it's OK if you get a little loud. Sadie's has a very friendly and casual (yet still professional) staff and huge portions of food. We like to go for dinner with a big group and drink Margaritas. And salsa. (Yes, we drink the salsa. It’s that good here.) (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010) View/Add Reviews [ 12 ] Albuquerque - Northeast Heights Annapurna’s World Vegetarian CaféMon-Sat 9 am-9 pm
Sun 10 am-8 pm (subject to change)
Ayurvedic cuisine works with your body’s natural energies and constitution to create “soul” food that’s on a whole new plane. Winners of Best Vegetarian in our poll several years running, Annapurna is the devoted to vegan and vegetarian cuisine. The food is satisfying but never heavy and, well, you just feel better after you eat there. Try Sunday brunch from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. with spiced gluten-free, vegan pancakes and breakfast quinoa. Annapurna has moved their award-winning menu to the new 4th St location south of Osuna. Check out the Chi Happy hour for 50% off a cup of chai from 3-5 pm daily.

Besides having the Best Pizza, according to past Best of Burque Restaurants polls, Dion's also has a wonderful selection of salads (particularly the Greek or any of the “gourmet” salads with microgreens) and sandwiches (the pastrami is especially good). The pizza is made fresh and you can see them rolling and tossing the dough. Dine in or order takeout. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010) Add a Review One of the South Valley’s longstanding treasures tries its hand at a Northeast Heights location. On the menu are all of your traditional New Mexican favorites (
adovada
, menudo, posole) plus a sizeable list of real Mexican food, like tacos
al pastor
,
desebrada
burritos and
bistec a la Mexicana
. There’s no lard in the beans, and the chips and salsa are especially good. (Alibi Staff, April 14, 2011) Add a Review
