Reviews for The Elephant Bar in Albuquerque, NM
Navigating the Uptown Shopping Center can be a challenge at certain times of the day. Once you're parked, the Elephant bar has... always provided a seemless and enjoyable pan-asian-fusion-plus dining experience. All staff were very friendly, communicative,and attentive. House cocktails are yummy, especially the raspberry lavender, if you enjoy such things. Some local beer wasavailable, which is always good to see in a chain. The food was perfectly prepared to order, including the requested burger cooktemp, which somehow seems to be a challenge elsewhere. Food presentation and plating was spot-on across the board, as you cansee in the image. All-in-all, it's a solid choice. Read more
Haven’t been since the pandemic and I am super disappointed. They cut their menu to the point that it’s no longer a... vegetarian-friendly restaurant and they were so haphazard on how they used their self-proclaimed vegetarian symbol. Apparentlysautéed spinach isn’t vegetarian? Such a shame, this restaurant used to be a family staple since everyone could getsomething they liked. We won’t be going back unless they re-expand their menu to at least partially their pre-pandemicoptions. Read more
Friendly bartenders. Lovely looking bar and restaurant with palm trees inside. We didn't eat but saw some delicious food being... served. Great drinks! Read more
Place was great. Wonderful staff, nice people that are willing to help with everything. The refills are free and most thing are... 12 to 18 dollars but the food is worth it. For a cheaper meal I recommend the coconut shrimp and if you want bigger meals Iwould get fish or a burger, the burgers are pretty big so if you have an empty stomach it's perfect. The dessert was also prettybig. Read more
Happy hour from 3 to 6, great draft beer. The signature burger was delicious and I asked if I could put raw red onion on it and... they happily said yes. The mustard they have is absolutely delicious. The service was really good too. Read more

I've been coming here for years but today was definitely the last time. Their food tastes great but the kids meals were so... disappointing. It was just so little food for the price that it was insulting. The kids burgers were literally bread and meat,nothing else. The patties are like half the size of the bread. I wanted to take a picture but didn't want to be rude to ourwaitress who was very nice. McDonald's would've been a much better choice though. I bought the exact same meal here last summerand it was a ton of food and a great value. Not sure what changed but it's really sad to see this place go downhill. My meal wasyummy and plenty of food but still more money than a lot of similar restaurants. I wanted a drink too but $12 for a cocktail?Eh. This trip was around $20-25 more than we normally pay at other places and the kids got hungry soon after. Read more
