Previously known as ABQ Brew Pub, this establishment puts a laser focus on quality brews and makes sure every customer has a truly out-of-this-world experience.

B2B2 Barrio Uptown
B2B2 makes some bomb street-style tacos. From the handmade tortillas to the specialty sauces, everything is prepared in-house. Each taco is paired with a complementary sauce that creates a mouthwatering savory treat. The tacos arrive at your table on a variety of house made tortillas of the day selection from lime, cilantro, saffron, chipotle spinach and blue corn with garnish of pickled carrots and onions, along with julenne sliced radishes, and jicama. All of these components deliberately put together create a burst of different flavors and textures in your mouth. What about drinks? Dont sweat it. B2B2 has 60 award winning local craft beers on tap at one place with 6 different margaritas. Happy hour is Monday-Friday 3-6pm, when drinks start at $3. Each Saturday there’s live music on the patio.

Elephant Bar Restaurant
Sun-Thu: 11am-10pm, Fri-Sat: 11am-11pm (hours can change without notice)
Happy Hour!: 3:00pm - 7:00pmIf you’re in the Uptown Mall and in need of a bite to eat, and perhaps an elephant safari, Elephant Bar might be your ticket. OK, so the elephants aren’t real, and you can’t ride on them, but the large dining room is full of carvings and sculptures of them, even more than palm trees. The food is Americanized Asian mishmash, with good salads and seafood. An organic green salad with walnuts and creamy gorgonzola is large, tasty and simple in a good way. The wood grilled trout with lobster sauce is pure joy to eat. Even better is the ahi tuna salad, available as both entrée and appetizer sized, which consists of slices of seared fish atop a pile of seaweed and salad greens, with pickled ginger, wasabi and green sesame seeds.

A long standing New Mexican fixture, Garduño’s knows how to put the real meaning in “happy hour” with their expansive Margarita menu and Margarita flights. Try their Santa Fe blue enchiladas and treat yourself to fried ice cream, served in a sugar tostada bowl and drizzled with honey, the real New Mexican way!
