The 23 Essential Restaurants in Santa Fe

"Chef Kewal Singh Dhindsa took his love of classic South Indian food from Los Angeles to New York to the Caribbean before settling in Santa Fe. At India House, where the dining room is expansive and the service immaculate, try anything from the tandoor oven, like the chicken wings broiled over mesquite and mixed with yogurt, garlic, and ginger. Don’t be shy if you like heat; ask for recommendations, or alter your favorite dishes with additional spice. India House will go above and beyond to make you sweat." - Willy Carleton, Justin De La Rosa, Karen Fischer
