Marcello’s Chophouse Albuquerque Restaurant Spotlight

Marcello's Chophouse Albuquerque NMFrank Marcello opened his latest restaurant in November of 2006.  Marcello’s Chophouse is an upscale restaurant in the ABQ Uptown Mall. I finally had the opportunity to have lunch at Marcello’s this week. It was a pleasant experience. We had a late lunch so it was fairly empty and by the time we left, I think we were the only patrons since meals aren’t served during 3pm-5pm.
 

Marcello's Chophouse Albuquerque NMJason, our server, was attentive and very familiar with the menu. I ordered Frank’s Healthy Chicken Platter. I must say that the oven-dried tomatoes were delicious!  My lunch companion ordered the Chilled “Really Big” Shrimp. Jason was accommodating in her request for cocktail sauce without the green and red chili normally served.
 

Marcello's Chophouse Albuquerque NMThe atmosphere was relaxing with small dining areas separated by partial walls. Adorning the walls were black and white photos of Dean Martin, Sammy Davis, and my favorite, Frank Sinatra, as well as numerous other actors and actresses of that era. The music was also fun, which included selections such as the theme from “Batman” and “Octopus’s Garden”.
   

Marcello's Chophouse Albuquerque NMDessert was decadent. My companion ordered Frank’s favorite “Bananas for Sundae” and I had the truly sinful “Hot Chocolate”-CAKE THAT IS! Lunch for two with dessert, iced tea, and a glass of wine, was $53.00.

    Ashley, I might just get in the car right now and drive to Albuquerque, NM to go out to lunch or dinner with you. You are such a great recourse for Albuquerque, NM.

  2. Ashley, You know all the great places! You’ve got some great photos here, just reading this made me hungry. You sure know ABQ, easy to see why you’re the top REALTOR in town.

  3. Mana hop in that car and we can “do lunch”. Though CA might be a long drive for a lunch!

  4. Lynda at least it wasn’t crowded when I was eating and I didn’t draw attention to myself taking the photos! Now I have an excuse to eat out…I have to tell everyone about them!
