A very special birthday, for a very special person deserved a reservation at Farm & Table. With its nice location in Los Ranchos, you can expect an older southwest architecture with naked beams, adobe, rustic, and cozy style. The patio is inviting with hanging lights, a water fountain in the middle, and plenty of shade. The farm is open and gorgeous for a cool evening stroll or just sitting down to enjoy the view.
The service is consistent with fine dining. Our server was friendly, taking her time to describe the specials and the dishes. The descriptions were rich with detail and engaged our senses and attention quickly. Our server was very friendly and helpful with our questions.
And after some tough decisions to make, we landed on the mezze for our appetizer; a Mediterranean dish with greens, hummus, olives, and feta cheese. This dish is good enough for an entree. The flavors were amazing, with a rich hummus and mild olives. For our entrees, we had the bison short ribs and the Buffalo Creek Ranch beef New York strip. Even though the New York strip was supposed to be medium, instead of medium well, the flavor and tenderness were scrumptious. The short rib fell off the bone like it never belonged there, and the bacon and onion flavors on the sauce were a perfect match with the small potatoes. And, because there was a birthday involved, our third course was the decadent but mildly dry German chocolate cake with dried and roaster coconut shavings.
Overall, this was truly a special place for a special birthday. It is on the very pricey side, but worth the cost. From the location to the service, and the flavors in our food, everything was well rounded with just a couple of things that could be a bit different to make the experience truly perfect.
