Executive Chef John Haas and his staff deftly prepared culinary masterpieces delivered efficiently and with alacrity by one of the best wait staffs in Albuquerque.  Our hosts, owners Katie Gardner and husband Jeff Spiegel outdid themselves with their hospitality.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small; font-family: Verdana;\">Dinner was held on the restaurant&#8217;s grotto.

Exclamations of &#8220;ooh&#8221; and &#8220;ah&#8221; were uttered as generously portioned and artfully plated dishes were delivered to our tables.
