The 22 Best Restaurants in Santa Fe, New Mexico
"Open for: Lunch, dinner Price range: $$ Both a local bar grub staple and a biker outpost, the Mineshaft Tavern and Cantina gives visitors a taste of the Wild West, with wood-paneled walls and live music. Menu highlights include the mad chile burger, which consists of your choice of meat — including New Mexico-raised Wagyu beef — topped with both fried and chopped hatch chiles, aged cheddar, and chipotle dijonnaise. Appetizers are solid with other Southwestern goodies like tempura-battered fried green chiles, but skip the nachos. Vibe check: Half of the fun of visiting on the weekends is sitting outside overlooking the main Madrid road, watching the leather-clad biker gangs travel in packs." - Karen Fischer
