Ten 3

This is an incredible destination restaurant. World renown views and a James Bond worthy trip to the top. This is an upscale restaurant, so be sure to dress up a bit and leave your ball caps at home. Use your best Gramma's house manners and keep it classy. This is a great gem of a place that deserves respect and your best behavior, so be cool, and enjoy yourself. The excellent professional staff will ensure you have a grand and unforgettable experience.

An amazing elevated experience. The staff was amazing and the food was phenomenal. All the produce gets delivered on the tram, so the prices feel justified. I went for lunch during the Balloon Fiesta and I was served fairly quick. The drinks were delicious and beautiful! I can't wait to go for the dinner service. You also can't beat the view

I looked at the reviews before we took the Tram up to Sandia Crest and after we got there, i was very confused. We went for lunch, and yes, there is a fine dining restaurant in which we were seated, but after discovering their was a full bar and casual dining… we moved to that area. The menu for lunch was the same in both areas. The view from the bar/casual dining side is spectacular. The place is called 10-3 because it’s 10,300 feet in altitude. For us, the highest point we have been to on solid ground in our lives. The food was fine, and yes of course, airport level pricing - my roommate had the brisket sandwich [see pic] and i just had the queso fries. We started with the fried pickles which were wonderful. A great craft beer selection but i had the draft watermelon cider which was lovely. The bartender was delightful and funny. Authentic and open. People really do make a big difference. Speaking of which, a group of 3 ending up sitting next to us at the bar and after a single specialty cocktail, one of them said “Jim - text the rest of the group and tell them to go ahead and hike up to the stone cabin without us, i am not feeling well, maybe its altitude sickness”… then they all laughed loud. We were there about an hour and many times heard peeps say, “OMG i had no idea this was here - everything said it was fine dining only”. The casual area and bar is the ski lodge vibe - simply fun. For lunch, you don’t come for the food, you come for the experience. But like i said, the food was fine. The experience was wonderful! val

What a fabulous place to have lunch. You can hike to the top or you can take the world’s highest tram- but definitely worth the visit. We had excellent service from CJ. We absolutely loved the Kentucky Vanilla Barrel Cream and La Cumbre “A Slice of Hefen” on tap. Be prepared for the temperature change and obviously the elevation. Make sure you hydrate you are over 10,000 feet. Enjoy!!

Special note of thanks to the staff at Ten3 for making our wedding anniversary so memorable. We were warmly greeted by everyone at the host station and seated in one of the loveliest locations in the entire restaurant. Our server, Nick, was exactly what we would have hoped for: Friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. He paced the meal so we never felt rushed, yet he was always available to us whenever we needed anything. Nick had such a relaxed, easy-going manner about him that put us at ease. The jumbo crab cake appetizer we ordered was delicious. The halibut was cooked perfectly. And the shrimp entrée was both super flavorful and popping with color. Of course, the sunset photos taken right from our table brought the evening to a perfect close. What a wonderful experience this was for us. We highly recommend Ten3 to others and will happily return whenever we make our way back to Albuquerque.

This restaurant is at the top of Sandia Peak mountains located north of Albuquerque, New Mexico. You must take the cable tram to the top if the mountain. There is a cost associated with the tram ride. When we arrived at the tram platform we went downstairs and saw the entrance to the restaurant. We noticed there were several people waiting outside. We went inside and put our name on the list about 15 minute wait . This was for a lunch and was first come first serve. Reservations are required for dinner. The area for the dinner is facing the Albuquerque view and city lights. We had lunch at about a third of the price and I enjoyed the food very much. The brisket sandwich and hamburger were very good. The service was excellent. The beer was excellent. The lunch area faces another view looking towards Santa Fe and Algodones. I highly recommend this restaurant.

The elk carpaccio was very good, and very clean tasting. The substitution of the traditional lemon juice for pickled onions and snow peas was an interesting take that did not disappoint. I commend the grill chef who perfectly toasted the toastinis. Absolutely nailed it and the maillard reaction flavor was a lovely touch with the appetizer of the raw meat. I ordered the ribeye rare plus and it came out medium, but that's forgivable. It was still a delicious steak and I ate the whole thing. I would revisit this mountainous peak just to have a plate of the duck fat potatoes honestly. The whole menu is over priced but its to be expected when dining with such a great view. This restaurant and harbor house in san Francisco are the best dining views I have ever seen. I highly recommend eating here but be ready to drop $100-150 per person. 84/100
