The meal was more than delicious. It was a true sample of New Mexico flavor. Our server, Diego, was engaging and very helpful. The jewelry and art were stunning. It is well worth the visit. More...

This is a must do stop for culture in Albuquerque. Well-done, unique, and beautiful. Wonderful authentic native American pieces in gift shop. Cafe is fabulous- try the 'feast' but beware it feeds kire than two people! More...

We had a very good visit at the cultural center. Started with lunch at the restaurant. Ordered salad and corned bison sandwich. Both were tasty and everything is made with locally sourced ingredients. The 'musuem' part is very reasonably priced and takes a couple of hours to go through thoughtfully. The explanations for the displays are pretty basic, but several displays have recordings with more commentary. Do see the changing exhibit area, too. We saw some really interesting things there from the permanent collection. More...

I went to the restaurant Pueblo Harvest in the cultural center. The menu had both unique and familiar items which was a nice treat. The service was perfect as well, very friendly. I would give 5 stars if the atmosphere was unique. It looked like the same builder for the state's casinos built the property up as well as the decor. It would have been nice to see their specific viewpoint instead, it felt like a hotel. More...

This is an outstanding museum. Open, well laid out. Good representation of the various pueblos, not only in pottery, but also housing, religion, glyphs, language. The staff is unfailingly courteous. They host Native dances on the weekend - a good opportunity to see and photograph something that is otherwise somewhat difficult to access. More...

The displays are beautiful, informative, and exhibits are respectfully done. Anyone interested in Native American heritage and culture should go. The gift shop has local artists' work for sale as well as the typical tourist type fare. I highly recommend going on a weekend and catching one of the dances- noon on weekends. I also recommend eating at the restaurant. Delicious regional fare with traditional roots. More...

Loved my time here. Plan at least a couple of hours if you want to experience all the museum offers. While I was there I had the opportunity to see the family below. The personalized dances, understanding the meaning and purpose behind them moved more than a few there. The short video clips doesn’t do them justice. I also came on a day where Native Americans were selling their own jewelry, artwork, etc. There’s a Native American restaurant there as well. More...

Beautiful architecture and interior. Very professionally designed exhibits, graphics, display cases and other methods of displaying pots, fetishes, artifacts, etc. Great gallery in front for changing art exhibits (saw Felix Vigil exhibit yesterday (Sept 2017). A very high quality native art and museum experience. The frequently presented pueblo and other tribes (such as Apache) dances are amazing and worth the price of admission alone. I need to join since it's cheaper than paying for admission each time I want to go, which is often. More...

We were there to eat dinner at the cafe. We had an awesome waiter, Bryan, that made some great recommendations. One of the best waiters we've ever had! The food was delicious and he wrapped our desert up to take with us as we were too full to finish. Next time we come through town we will try to go through the center. More...

I had visited some years ago, remembered it as interesting. Yesterday I came to Albuquerque to visit my daughter, told her we should see it.
I was amazed at how it had changed. Lovely examples of art, artifacts to look at. Educational and interesting displays and a very knowledgeable docent answering questions.
We also had a wonderful lunch in the cafe. Anyone visiting the area should definitely see this center.

Awesome prices on tobacco products. Best in town. Always packed with people but line moves fast. If you want the best bang for your buck when it comes to smoking or liquor this is your new primary vendor. Employees are nice and efficient. Also sell lottery and fuel. Most popular convenience store in town. Right next to Indian cultural center so if you're from out of town you could do both. Enjoy!!! More...

We came during happy hour and waited to be seated for 15 minutes. There was no one else waiting but it did look like they were understaffed. When we were seated the service was on point and the food was amazing. All in all the way we were treated made up for the neglect we felt as we were waiting. More...

Interesting place to visit supported by the eight northern pueblos. Contains artifact samples from each of the pueblos, but not a museum. There are handmade items for sale, and a good in-house restaurant serving up authentic native food. Live native dances in the summer by members of any of the featured pueblos. Check the way site for info or call them. More...

Helpful staff, educational materials abundant, lovely exhibits. My favourite was the one about Trump. Who would have thought our Dear Leader isn't a fan of the native folks
I learned a lot, the exhibits are interactive and the Native American dancing (pueblo communities) was very interesting/educational. I was told this is the only place you could see Indigenous dancing that's not on a reservation.

My sister and I visited Indian Pueblo Cultural Center in Albuquerque, NM. A while back I received a FB invitation to follow the Indian Pueblo Cultural Center. I did and discovered it's a wonderful place with a museum, a restaurant, an outdoor arena for cultural dancing, and cultural exhibits. It was a really great place to visit and to learn a bit of the history of the Pueblos in New Mexico. More...

There were very interesting exhibits as well as fascinating artwork. Although some of it, strangely, seemed a bit "white-washed" I and my boyfriend still thoroughly enjoyed our visit.
We will return soon, even if only for some of the stuff in the gift shop which was well stocked with a very friendly staff.

We really liked this museum. Their have self guided tours which tell you lots of stories about the pueblo people, their culture, cultivation.
They have a one hour traditional dance of the pueblo natives - neatly explaining about what they are doing.
Few stall selling their jewelry and pots.
There is a cafe too. Spend some time here.

Service was fantastic during our last visit. Super busy, but great. The food was very good as well.
Been there 4 more times since my first review.
I’m upgrading from 4 stars to 5. The service has been excellent! The food fantastic the last 2 visits. Fresh and unique local/native flare on traditional fare. I’m impressed! And, I’m not easily impressed...lol. We have added it to our must visit at least once or twice per month! Good job folks!
