Blades' Bistro

Eat ANYTHING from this place, and you're sure to return! 5 star dining, hidden in the Sandia Foothills of Placitas, this will become a favorite spot you'll recommend to all!

Really great service with admirable (yet still sincere) social distancing procedures, and we really enjoyed the food!

Food was outstanding, and the chef made a dish to accommodate dietary restrictions. Definatly going back.

Wait Staff: Tony was our waiter. He was great. Very professional and very amiable. You could tell he takes pride in his job and in the food served.
Kitchen: The food was very good. Tasty and well presented. The portions were a little smaller than I would have preferred. They also mixed up one of our orders, but that turned out OK.
Price: Higher than comparable restaurants in Albuquerque but lower than those in Santa Fe.
Ambience: The interior of the restaurant was cozy. It was a little dark, making it hard to read the menu (for my old eyes). The live music on the patio was nice and was not a distraction to those dining inside.
Finally, they made you feel welcome. I've eaten at many a high end restaurant where you become a cog in the machine, but we were well treated. The personal touch was nice.

My wife took me here for my birthday and it was one of the best places to dine. I couldn't remember in recent memory having such a wonderful experience. The food, wait staff, ambiance and the owners especially were awesome. Highly recommended.
