Paradise Restaurants

Our first return to Vernon's in over 20 years did not disappoint! The service was "plenty" and Staff were very pleasant and knowledgeable. The food was absolutely delicious and was plentiful. And, the bottle of Mimbres Red Wine greatly complemented our Stuffed Quail (1st time) and Prime Rib. We had a 4:30 Res. which might have accounted for the multitude of friendly Staff catering to us, but I suspect their great serice was provided equally to later arrivals. My wife and I are very grateful to a Client for the Gift Certificate that got us here. We'll be using our own funds to return!

The food was excellent and well presented on the plates. The salads were beautiful and delicious, we had the beet salad, grilled Romain and wedge. All three could be split between 2 people. We ordered the lamb, lobster ravioli and the halibut. All delicious and creativity prepared. There was no room for dessert! Our waiter was accommodating and professional. Overall a wonderful experience.

We used the BOGO Free email for our dinner. I had the salmon with baked potato and calabacitas while my partner had enchiladas with a relleno and fried egg. We shared the guac. He enjoyed his margarita while I sipped my delicious Sauvignon Blanc. The room was lovely and warm by the fire. Our waiter was very attentive which made our dinner and time at El Pinto all the nicer! Thank you for hiring such great staff. It's one reason we continue to go to El Pinto coupon or not. We highly recommend.

We three friends came for dinner before a concert. The seasonal decorations were lovely and the booth by the window had a beautiful view of the Sandias and the city lights. Our server was very good even though he seemed so young. The price of the wine by the glass is pretty high. I would recommend just buying a bottle. My beet salad was excellent as was the bruschetta. The portions are large and reasonably priced. My mussels were very salty but the chef graciously redid my order with less seasoning. My friends had chicken Parmesan and the Dijon chicken. The Parmesan version seemed to be the better choice. Can’t wait to bring my husband.

Service and food were great. Little disappointed that despite having a reservation we still had to wait 30 minutes.
