We go to Albuquerque once a year for a sporting tournament. We always have lunch at The Owl. Sadies is good food.

I was thinking of El Pinto. It finally came to me. I have not eaten there in 10 years but it appears to still be open.

Yes, El Pinto's is still alive and very well. In fact, filming will start soon on a reality TV show about El Pinto's by one of the cable networks.

If you're looking for a good steak and if you are in the mood for a time warp to the 70s decor-wise, Paul's Monterey Inn meets both requirements.
