During your Albuquerque vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Sweet Peppers Grill
This downtown grill has developed quite a following among the local businessmen and women. This is due in part to the owner Frank, who greets customers at the door with a handshake for some and a hug for others. Try one of the Italian submarine sandwiches like the meatball or Italian sausage. The Italian Beef Sub with thin sliced meat and au jus is fantastic. All of the subs come with sautéed sweet peppers and chips, and you can add grilled onions or cheese if you want. Pasta meals with your choice of meat and Frank's special marinara sauce are also available.
Brio Grille
You will not have any trouble finding this grill located in the heart of Albuquerque. Take heart, as visitors to the Radisson Conference Center and Hotel are immediately treated to luxurious and cushy surroundings. Decorated in a distinctively southwest theme, this dining room is cheery and contemporary. Enjoy a margarita while you decide what to order. The menu features, fancy New Mexican fare in addition to steak, seafood, soup, salads and hearty sandwiches. Enjoy lavish breakfast and lunch buffets that include dozens of meats and side dishes along with fresh fruit, pies and cakes.
Lagniappe
Cajun food, which originated in the bayous of Louisiana, is famous for its spicy flavor. The owner of this restaurant comes from that region and brings his expertise with him. The menu has a large variety of choices from full dinners to sandwiches. The dinners are almost artistic in their arrangement and come with a vegetable and bread choice. The southern catfish is heavenly and so is the jambalaya. For people who do not like Cajun food, the Philly Cheesesteak is among the best in town.
