Best Seafood Restaurants in Los Ranchos

Awesome food, great service, and pleasant restaurant decor.

Boy, talk about a really unique experience!! At the front door, after we had our "password" validated, we were met by Micky with a baseball bat who made sure we knew what the houserules were. We were escorted to our table and prepared for a terrific dining experience. The food was expertly prepared and presented. It was a really enjoyable experience.

We dined here for my son’s 14th birthday. We were only in Albuquerque for the night and very happy with our choice. The service was great. Drinks were always full and dirty plates cleared quickly. The food was delicious. The zucchini was our favorite appetizer. We all agreed the best fried zucchini we’ve ever had. All steaks and prime rib were cooked well. The sides were the star of the show. The asparagus was very well cooked and seasoned so well. The Brussel sprouts were absolutely delicious. We were too full for dessert but we had plenty of options. We enjoyed every bite and will visit the next time we’re in Albuquerque!

Having been long-time fans of Market Steer Restaurant's old location, we approached their new spot with a mix of excitement and curiosity. Could it possibly recreate the magic of our cherished memories of dining just days before Christmas, gazing out the window as snow fell softly outside? Happily, the answer is a resounding yes. The new location is every bit as beautiful as the old, if not more so. The attention to detail in the finishes and the overall design of the space is remarkable. From the moment we stepped inside, the restaurant exuded sophistication and warmth, making it feel both familiar and refreshingly new. The service continues to be one of Market Steer's greatest strengths. Our server and busser were attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely welcoming. The server’s recommendations for both the food and the wine list were spot on, showcasing their expertise and passion for creating an exceptional dining experience. As for the food, it surpassed even our fondest memories. The subtle flavors in the salad and soup were perfectly balanced, and the bread—accompanied by a delectable butter—was irresistible. The star of the meal, however, was undoubtedly the steak. Cooked to perfection with seasoning that was flawless, it needed no embellishments, though the accompanying blue cheese butter and chimichurri were delicious options. The sides, too, were outstanding, with impeccable portion sizes and flavors that elevated the entire meal. From the restaurant’s exquisite design to the exceptional service and superb food, it’s clear that the owners have poured their hearts into every detail of their business. Their hard work and commitment to excellence are evident at every turn. The only tiny detail that could have elevated the experience even further would have been having our coats ready at the door as we left—an admittedly small and unimportant gesture, but one that would have added an extra touch of hospitality to an already unforgettable evening.

Soup wasn’t very good. But the crab legs were good! Will be back.
