So far I have only ordered take out for lunch. I had the Spaniard with fries. They are definitely serving up some fuego. I will for sure be returning for a signature drink and dinner.

I came here for brunch and what a great find this was! I had the avocado toast, Spanish style mussels and an Italian sandwich (this was to go for later). I've never had an avocado toast before so I don't have anything to compare it to, but it was light, flavorful and decadent at the same time. My friends ordered a side of crispy bacon to top the toasts with and it made it even better. Everything is better with bacon! The Spanish style mussels were cooked perfectly with a very flavorful broth and some warm bread to dip into. I was afraid of rubbery overcooked mussels, but they were the perfect texture. The Italian sandwich I ordered to go so I could have it later that day. The sandwich was filled with very high quality meats, but there was no sauce. It needed something to make it less dry. None the less, it was still very tasty. Since I was home, I added some mayo and pesto and it was perfect. Cole was our server. He was gracious, polite, friendly and accommodating. It was a pleasure dining here. I will definitely be back again!

This is already one of my favorite restaurants! The food is fantastic, I love the ambiance and the service is amazing. I also highly recommend sitting at the bar for dinner and letting Ian order for you!

Beautiful drinks and wonderful food. The bar tender upstairs, Ian, kills it! Definitely worth checking out.

Central Bodega quickly became our refuge while in town to visit family members who had been in a serious accident. Not only was every dish we ordered cooked to perfection, but the staff was so friendly and welcoming. Many thanks to Sydney, Arnaldo, and Dominick and all of the others whose names we didn't catch. Go and enjoy - you won't be disappointed!

This place was on our list for a long time and finally we went there. It has beautiful ambiance that impressed me. Our host was so nice and knowledgeable. We ordered three different appetizers but none of them impressed me. While waiting for our dinner we got our cocktails and really liked them , delicious and we'll made. I heard that their steak is really good so me and my friend ordered one medium-rare and one medium-well, but both were below expectations , it was tasty but hard to chew. We had Lobster too and it was delicious. In general I was expecting more but unfortunately need more work to get that level so for now I give them 4 ⭐️

Came here for a date night, and everything was *perfect*. It was great having such a good, local spot to go to on a Monday night (so rare!), and Bodega knocked it out of the park on all counts. Grace was warm and welcoming and our server Sydney was very attentive (without being overly-so). We started off with the hericot verts appetizer, which was perfect to share with two people and very tasty. The entrees came out expeditiously - I got the steak frites with a side of demi glace and it was immaculate. Rich, indulgent, and comforting. My date got the duck entree, and loved every bit of it. Very affordable for what we got, too, which was an added bonus. And the ambience of the place is lovely - it definitely made for an upscale, but not overly-intense/pretentious, backdrop that we both enjoyed immensely. 10/10, can't recommend this spot enough.

Great cocktails and lovely atmosphere. Food is OK (tried the Alfredo), charcuterie board is sub par for price, I swear I saw some bologna on the board. I’m sure it was something I don’t know, but it looked and tasted like bologna.

Exactly the meal we hoped for at Central Bodega. We both ordered steak & frites which were wonderful! The Brazilian Lemonade was so refreshing and I truly enjoyed it. Simple yet refined atmosphere downstairs and more upscale upstairs. Appreciated both spaces being casual dress.

Had a GREAT experience at Central Bodega tonight. The Carajillo cocktail was fantastic and all of the food we tried was top notch. Best in class service - we were pampered. Loved they are serving local NM wines too. Seth and staff knocked it out of the park! We will all be back to try more……

Group of nine. Excellent service. Excellent food. Excellent drinks, but…..Came for the mussels. Told they were out. Understand there might be supply chain issues etc…but. Saw several other parties that were seated well after us having mussels? Be truthful . Not enough for our party or? Disappointing experience in what otherwise would have been a five star experience.

First time at Bodega and man, it was amazing. The upstairs restaurant/lounge is just probably one of the best places to go for an intimate quiet vibe, incredible cocktails, and even more amazing service. Our bartender and server, Arnaldo, was superb. He was extremely knowledgeable about everything and was very attentive and excellent to talk to. The space was amazing, view was great, really immediately one of my favorites. Appetizers are killer, though the entrees could use some ingenuity!

I mostly enjoyed my brunch, but I have to deduct points for the “baguette” which cost $6 and seemed like 2-day-old supermarket bread. It was stale, cold and not at all crusty or fresh. We also were seated at the bar and wanted to move to a table. There were two 2-person tables they could’ve put together that were available most of the time and they didn’t.

4 friends for a birthday brunch. Service was outstanding!! Thank you Catherine (Cat). Kind, laid back and welcoming!! We had a couple of the wonderful original cocktails, coffee and tea. All very good. We had the chicken and waffles (oh my!!) huge serving and DELISH!! The croque madame! Yumm…great fries!! And a couple varieties of Eggs Benedict!! Super yummm. Well prepared and generous portions! What sealed the deal was the Vanilla Bean Gelato with Churros and Red Chile Caramel Sauce!! So original! So we’ll prepared and SO DELICIOUS!! Save room!! Thanks for a delightful experience!!

drinks and appetizers were fantastic, entrees were okay and while the waiters were friendly, service was really slow

I came here on a recommendation of a friend. Being new here love discovering food in Albuquerque- loved my brunch, which was The Whipped feta. However, the bartender could’ve been a lot more friendly and more attentive. I only ordered the feta and tea, but he seemed to cater those who ordered drinks unfortunately, someone else had to help me, and he seemed to be very unfriendly and disassociating at the end of my meal. He had my ticket ready and almost held onto on purpose until I asked for it —- —-interesting because I was nothing but friendly throughout the whole meal. He was the only main server. There was a beautiful nice young lady helping him -/ if I see him when I dine with friends I may avoid this place.
