The 22 Best Restaurants in Santa Fe, New Mexico
"Open for: Weekend breakfast, lunch, dinner Price range: $$$ This large, hacienda-style New Mexican restaurant, a maze of adobe-walled rooms and tiled patios, makes for a perfect stop after you’ve checked out the nearby Santuario de Chimayó, or while you’re en route to other attractions along the High Road to Taos. For a taste of local history, try the Chimayó cocktail, a cider-and-tequila creation developed by the founder during the area’s apple boom more than a half century ago. It’s perfectly refreshing alongside a bowl of the heady green chile stew. All in all, if you’re craving a drive out of town for lunch to get some fresh air, this is a classic spot. Vibe check: The restaurant is only two minutes from the Santuario, so you’ll be rubbing elbows with visitors shuttled in on tour buses if you visit on the weekend." - Karen Fischer
