3128 Social House

We walked in not expecting much. But as I left, it reminded me of what good food and service was about. We lost that with the Pandemic, but this spot is making it happen. Best place to drink and eat on Knob Hill. Our server, Natahlie and the entire crew was the best! We told her how much we enjoyed the experience. You really can’t find that kind of service in NM. We will be back again and again. Ask for Tiger Lily.

This is one of our new fav places. Kelly was already our favorite bartender, plus the food and vibe are great! The brunches on Easter and Mother’s day were awesome, the dinner menu is amazing, and it’s also perfect to hit for a cocktail and dessert. Service is perfect, food is divine, and the atmosphere is great.

This has now become my favorite dining experience in ABQ! The whole staff was intuitive, and we never wanted for anything - great service! Christian, our server, navigated us through an excellent dining experience, and everything was so good! Best charcuterie board I’ve had. Best short rib too! And the rye old fashioned? So good I had 2! To end the meal, the panna cotta was unique and tasty- honeycomb?! What?! Loved it. I will definitely be back and bringing people to share this dining experience. Also loved the ambiance. Overall- what a great night out!

This place was such a vibe! I loved the set up which was elegant but not overly pretentious like other restaurants. My husband and I booked reservations online and we were immediately seated. I had the scallops and paloma and my husband had the burger and a beer which was amazing!! Then finished it off with the poached pear which was to die for. I can’t wait to come back with family and friends. Also our waiter was super cool and knowledgeable of all the food and drink choices.
