"Vernons Steak House, a resturant with a VIBE! - World class"
By:  claytonk

"By far the best dining experience my husband and I had since moving to NM from Scottsdale, AZ. Vernons had a good vibe and the speak-easy setting was unique! EXCELLENT wine list. Our steaks were cooked perfectly. A restuarant we would definitely return to!"

"Best Steak in Albuquerque! - World class"
By Devdan

---- CALICO31 (large)"I have had the opportunity to eat at Vernon's Hidden Valley Steaks on numerous occasions. Each visit is more pleasurable than the previous! Hands down Vernon's has the best steak in Albuquerque. Also, the atmosphere makes your dining experience fabulous. It is fashioned like an old speakeasy of the Prohibition Era. The door to enter Vernon's is hidden in the back of a liquor store. You have to say, "Joe sent me" to get in! I love the coziness with the fire place and live piano.

My favorite menu item is the filet mignon - it melts in my mouth! I always get the 6 oz so that I have room for the bruschetta (love it!) and chop salad. My husband loves the prime rib. He also starts with the shrimp cocktail, skips the salad, and finishes with an amazing creme brulee. The food is superb and the atmosphere makes the evening even more special.

I recommend Vernon's to anyone who is looking for a great meal! You will enjoy a true "big city" dining experience in little old Albuquerque - you will think that you are in Chicago or New York. It is a perfect place for a romantic date or to take someone that you really want to impress!"

Pros: ambiance, service, Food
Cons: none!

"My wife and I both really enjoyed our time at Vernons. It was so fun to have the speakeasy environment with the live music. Everyone was very nice, and the food was delicious (my wife says it's the best she's ever had). Not to mention how easy it was to make reservations on opentable.com. The only downside is how much it cost. Because of the price we won't be able to be frequent guests, but will certainly be coming back again on occasions. All in all a wonderful experience, and if you haven't been, you really should.....You'll love it."

"Reservations were made for us by Hacienda Vargas Bed and Breakfast as a romantic dinner for us as part of a get-a-way weekend. It was perfect! The excitement of the "speakeasy" entry, the food, the music - we can't wait to go again."

"This was one of the best places I could have taken my husband for his birthday. The novelty of needing a password to even enter set the tone for the evening.
The food was prepared to perfection and the service was outstanding without the staff "hovering". We will definetly return for other special occasions--we may even have to make one up just to go!"

"Over all Vernon's is top notch. The food was prepared to perfection and the wait staff was attentive while not being an annoyance. There was a group of diners nearby that tended to get loud and obnoxious at times. I will and have already recommended this hidden steakhouse to coworkers and friends. The speakeasy ambiance was an awsome added touch."
