Based on previous reviews, I requested table 4 and it did provide a very enjoyable setting for our anniversary dinner. We arrived earlier than our reservation but were seated immediately. Our server was friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. The menu has numerous tempting choices, but we decided on the Chateaubriand for Two. It was perfectly cooked to our liking and was well complemented by the Caymus Cabernet, which was fairly priced. The staff was very attentive and we were asked by 3 different people if everything was to our liking. We had the dessert sampler plate and the chocolate mousse, key lime pie and creme brulee managed to disappear although neither of us had room for them. Our only quibble is that we felt somewhat rushed.
Pros: excellent beef
Cons: felt rushed

How many great things can be said about this restaurant? It glows in romantic light, the food is expertly prepared, the service goes above and beyond great expectations. If ever there is a place in Albuquerque that is truly remarkable in all categories, this is the one. The whole experience will live in my mind forever. Waitstaff is usually a reclection of management, so whatever is going on here is coming from the top down. Beautiful, romantic, excellence. Try the Louis IV and someone very special to enjoy the elegance of an evening.... you will talk about it for a very long time.
Pros: Thumbs up all the way
Cons: none

An exceptional Bistro...not a restaurant...a place to enjoy the atmosphere, the dinning...consistent and above the bar service, individual attention....great bargain for the price and it has been consistent for years under Steve's nurturing hand....simple menu, and great daily specials....tables 4 for 2 and 5 for 4 are special...the wish is for there to be no change...just continued quality and experience.....can be crowded so pick your time...a magic experience............an admirerer
Pros: atmosphere, value, service...
Cons: none.....pick your time carefully as it can be crowded...

If I were proposing to my wife, and I lived in Albuquerque, I'd go here! Table 4 is your table, for a romantic birthday, anniversary or for propsing. You can't SEE another table in the entire restaurant from there. Table 5 in almost as good; I may not want to sit in some of the other tables that are centrally located in the restaurant for an ultra romantic date, as the restaurant is small and people will likely walk right past you. EVERYTHING we had was spectacular.
Pros: romantic x7, intimate, A+ food & wine
Cons: , start saving $ now

While the setting is cute and the service first-rate, the steaks are tiny and the salad gritty. We found the menu overpriced for what you get. Great wine list.
Pros: Cute, Attentive staff, Wine list
Cons: Food just ok, Overpriced

This restaurant really is the best! I have eaten in fine dining establishments in cities such as Austin, Detroit, and NYC, and this is was the best meal my husband and I have ever enjoyed outside our home. The food is wonderful, service is superb, and price is very reasonable. The Oysters Rockefeller are to die for, and the Henry IV is so delectible it is almost sinful. We will definitely be back when we are in NM again. I stronly recommend Antiqity for a fabulous dining experience.
Pros: great food, great service, good value

The food was amazing and the service was beyond compare. The small, cozy 200 year old hacienda provides for the most romantic dinner by candlelight possible.
Pros: Ambience, Service, Food

This restaurant is very quaint and romantic. I loved the atmosphere and the food. The price is a little high and the selection small but it's beautiful place for a romantic dinner with someone you love.
Pros: excellent food, romantic, nice place
Cons: price, parking, selection

REstaurant Antiquity will always be special to us. My husband proposed to me 9 years ago in their most private romantic booth. The poor waiter kept coming over to take our order and having to walk away because I was crying like a baby. The atmosphere is perfect, the food excellent, the wine selection is wonderful and the staff is just the best. We just had to return for our 2nd anniversary--pregnant with our oldest daughter--another magical night. Nothing about this place is hokey or commercial--it is just lovely. Have the King Henry Filet--divine.
Pros: Superb food, Romantic, Quiet, Excellent service
