Mikuna Grill

My favorite restaurant in Angel Fire! We ate at every restaurant here in AF and this one we ate on our last night here and wow was the best saved for last because we really enjoyed the food, the atmosphere and the service, so amazing! I had a lime pineapple margarita and the Tallarines Verdes con Ribeye, (pictured), other dishes we had were the Creamy Shrimp Scampi, the Lomo Saltado and the Aji de Gallina!! My family sampled each others plate picks because they all looked so amazing and we recommend all these dishes! Portions were also very generous, I saw other reviews complaining about the portion sizes but they are wrong because we're from Houston, Texas a place of fine dining and huge portions so when I say the portions are generous, they are. My one negative and I can't even take a star away for it was that the dessert selection wasn't very much, however it is a busy time of year but better preparation for that would be nice, overall A+++

We decided to eat dinner here after a long day on the slopes and it was everything we were looking for! The service was fast and the servers were excellent. My husband had the elk, I had the grilled chicken salad and our son got a cheeseburger! Something for everyone! The food was great! Definitely recommend.

This place has ridiculous prices and is definitely NOT kid friendly. We got two of the kids meals, cheeseburgers with fries, they were the size of my kids heads! I got the fish and chips they were bland with no flavor. When we arrived,there was only one other table, we were seated quickly, and then.we waited for at least 10 minutes before our waitress came over to our table. We were rushed to order. Then had to wait an hour for our food! My kids were begging to leave. When we finally did.get our food it was disappointing, giant burgers and bland food. Our drinks were never refilled. When we were about to leave a belly dancer started. The music was way too loud, and she got so close to us with her dancing and sword. It was too much. This is a slow paced, bland food, belly dancer kind of place that is definitely not kid friendly.

Very nice atmosphere and very friendly wait staff! Parking is somewhat limited. The food, unfortunately, was not as flavorful or as appetizing as we'd hoped for, or maybe we just got the wrong items.. The yellow dish (Aji De Gallina) was pasty and bland and had relatively little chicken; it was better when mixed with rice for a little more solidity. The soup was decent, the yuca was good, and the lava cake was alright.. Eitger way, we could hear several other folks really enjoying their dishes, so we would definitely consider returning in the future!

Fantastic experience: While staying in NM we had two visits at this restaurant. First visit we had the Fried Chicken Steak and it was amazing with the green chili grave. This picture it is also from fried chicken steak, but with pasta. The pozole soup was tasty. They give you a free calamari entry on your first visit. Nice atmosphere with and outside patio. For drinks: I had a nice strawberry margarita.

Excellent service, the food was awesome, especially after a long day on the slopes. The location is very unassuming..once you get inside, it's very elegant! But the staff is down to earth and professional. I highly recommend.

Got the fish and chips and they were very mushy and had little flavor. It seems that they can't salt their fries either, everything tasted so bland. We waited around 30 minutes for our food, and then another 20 minutes for our checks. Really loved how our waitress lurks on your shoulder to see how much you tip. Should have tipped 0. Horrible place will never be back.

This place was ridiculous the prices on the menu were outrageous. We waited 2 hours for our food. Everyone around us got their food and we stayed waiting. When our food finally got to our table the fries were cold the chicken was dry and it wasn’t ribeye steak that my husband ordered it was just plane meat. The Cole slaw was nasty. The other plates coming out of the kitchen were big and full of food. This place was nasty. 🤮 McDonald’s is better then this place.

In town for Christmas with the family and this jewel was probably the best spot in Angel Fire. Some people would be skeptical about Peruvian food around here, but make no mistake, the food is fantastic!! We had various versions of pastas, empanadas, yuca, wings, shrimp scampi, etc. We were all very satisfied and happy we came to eat here. This place is a must!! We're planning on going back tonight!!

My wife and I are on our honeymoon. We decided to stop here after a day of snowboarding. The service was great and pretty fast for a light crowd. She got a Marg, which didn't have much alcohol, but that's hit and miss depending on the day. We got some calamari which was okay, but we both ordered the Creamy Shrimp Scampi (spicy) and it had amazing flavor!!! I asked her if we could come back here tomorrow and order the same thing lol. Great atmosphere with classical music playing, so it gave it that fancy feel. I'm sure the other food is good too. I would recommend if you're in the area.

We got 4 different dishes and they were all great! Was way surprised by quality of food. We legit had a 5 min argument if the scampi pasta was better than the pesto. Highly recommend!

Started with the yucca fries and I had the aji de gallina and wig had tallarines verdes con ribeye. Food was excellent and staff were great. Definitely would recommended.

The only place in Angel Fire area who honors reservations/times- we got seated early and were waited on promptly. Food was phenomenal and piping hot/fresh! We had a small snafu with them bringing the wrong dinner to one of our guests, he didn't mind and just started eating anyway. Manager came over, apologized, and then still brought his correct dish letting him have 2 dishes and only charging for the one. They also comped my boyfriend's steak as "the cut isn't up to our normal standards in terms of size so we aren't charging for it." We'd told them numerous times that it was ok, and to not worry about anything! The food was good so we really didn't mind any of the mixups. Service was great, the entertainment was awesome, and the food was delicious and good sized portions! We will absolutely be back to this restaurant when we come back to Angel Fire.

This was a pretty good meal. Surprising based on the location. We had calamari for the app and it was probably some of the best calamari that I've ever had. It was tender and the amount of breading was perfect and it didn't taste greasy at all. We had the chicken (can't recall the name) and opted for it grilled. I didn't like the flavor of one of the herbs on it. My husband did though. I also thought the accompanying potatoes were just okay. I would return here again, if in the area. The service was a little slow but they were pretty busy.

First of, a 4-star anywhere in Angel Fire is generous. Mikuna grill has great Peruvian Asian fusion food. Me and my son had the Arroz con Mariscos and we both loved it. Amazing flavor and good size portion. My four star is because they didn't have bread to serve. Service was good. The place could use a remake, but ok for the location.

I personally loved this restaurant and I will state why in chronological order. When we got there even though they were full they gave my family a table because there was only one chair, after we ordered we got the food quickly considering it was full, the food was not only quick but it was AMAZING way better than I expected, then we got entertainment which we didn't even know was coming. This simply was a great restaurant and I can see why it had great ratings. By far the best restaurant in Angel Fire.

Best food in Angel Fire (so far). It is hard to find decent food in this wonderful little mountain town we call (2nd) home. The food was delicious and filling. Wine selection was decent. It was over priced, but what isn't in a ski town. We are adventuring to try out (and review) every place in town. So far this place has the best food. The service was fantastic. Server was so attentive and full of recommendations. I would say it's kid friendly, we brought both of ours (8yo & 4yo). Our 4yo is quite loud, and the restaurant is fairly quiet, so we were nervous. But it was totally fine. Make a reservation!!!!!

Needs better signage, but food and atmosphere was awesome. We tried several dishes and it all was fantastic.

The ate lunch on the patio, with our two dogs accompanying us. The menu is very diverse; I had the Reuben Sandwich and my husband had the California Sandwich. Both were delicious! The service was great...each dog got their own bowl of water. Will definitely return.

Can't say enough good things about the food here - do not skip out on the items with the yellow sauce, it's addictive. The server recommended a pasta dish: which I normally don't go for but it was absolutely divine. Word of warning; the margaritas are made with vodka which I was not prepared for.

Excellent high quality food. The Mac and cheese for my kid was absolutely amazing , tasted of very good Parmesan

I have nothing nice to say about this experience. My food made me gag. The waitress was lovely. It wasn't her fault, it was just disgusting.

The food was amazing. Common beer choices plus local/state made beers. Liquor is wine based but we were fine with that because we came for the food. Service might be slightly slower than some but the unique food options made it worth it. Our waiter also offered to take our picture and wanted to make sure the food was good. We also had fresh salads (no awful iceburg). The yucca fries and calamari with unique dips were also amazing. Definitely recommend. Only thing I will note is the cost is a little higher buuuut I believe it's worth it for unique food choices and atmosphere.

So wonderful to find a restaurant like this. Lots of original options as well standard fare like salads and steaks. My waiter Camilo and waitress Makenzie were exceptionally professional and friendly. These meals really made my Angel Fire experience!

After a long day fishing Mikuna was near our condo and lured us in with the aromatic smells. Melissa was wonderful and was helpful with the choices we made. Spicy shrimp scampi and chile rellenos with Christmas sauce. Paired with a nice Pinot and local ipa. Dinner was great and we enjoyed our time together.

Great food and service. A hidden gem in Angel Fire. We had the fish and chips and fried Ribeye. Both were excellent. And you can't eat in a Peruvian restaurant and not have something they specialize in so we had the stew. It was full of flavor and interesting spices. Well worth it. Loved it so much that may be our go to for dinners while in town.

Great calamari, great lamb shank, just a tad bit under on the broccoli, good wine selections, & a little too spicy on the non spicy Arroz con Mariscos. Great service! We will be back tomorrow. It's the best place to eat for us & the locals at Angel Fire!

This place was fantastic. Service, food, ambiance. Only negative is they need a sign out front that reads Molina Grill instead of an old sign that says restaurant.

The seafood and rice was delicious. The service was excellent! We got there just after 4 and no one was there, but by 5:30 the place was packed with a wait for any party bigger than 2.

Couple things were off the night we dined. The lights were not working in the restrooms, the Aji de Gallina came out lukewarm (flavor was decent), steak in the Lomo Soltado was dry although my son inhaled it. The Arroz con Mariscos was good. Service was good.

Great service the server was efficient, pleasant and funny. Very good drinks and food. We enjoyed ourselves.

This place is a hidden gem in Angel Fire! They take reservations, which is really appreciated by out-of-town guests! The atmosphere was festive and cozy during the holiday weekend. The food was phenomenal; we loved every dish!! Our meal at this restaurant was one of the highlights on our ski trip to Angel Fire.

Fantastic food, excellent drinks I loved the lavender lush. Excellent service great attention to our party . The ambiance was cozy and comforting as well.

Everything was wonderful, the drinks, the service and the food. The food came out a little later than expected, but it wasn't a big deal being that we had no where to go after. We brought our son in with us and they can accommodate to smaller children which was a bonus for us. We will definitely be back to try a few more things off the menu on our next family trip.

Who ever would have thought there'd be a Peruvian food restaurant in Angel Fire? We were surprised. So the Peruvian and I made sure to give this spot a try. The food and service were very good. I'd be happy to eat here again. Pollo a La Brasa is a whole roasted chicken. We really wanted to try that, but missed the note about ordering it a day ahead, but next time for sure. The ceviche and papa a la Huancaina were both legit tasty. The papa a la Huancaina is a boiled potatoes dish with a spicy yellow sauce over the top, usually a side dish. We missed the traditional kalamata olives that usually accompany this dish, and they didn't have any, only the standard USA black olives (yuck), when we asked if we could get a side of olives. The Huancaina sauce was very good. The ceviche surprised me. There's no ocean near Angel Fire, but the fish was delicious. My Peruvian dining partner ordered the obligatory Inca Cola. If you are dining with kids I'd definitely recommend sharing an Inca Cola. It looks like Mountain Dew, but doesn't taste like it. It has a sweet fruity flavor. I've grown fond of it over the years, kids will love it. The service was a little bit rocky at the start as a couple of items we wanted to order weren't available. We went early around 4pm or so the kitchen hadn't fully prepared for the dinner service. The waitress was very nice, though, and we understood. They have a few dining in options: an indoor dining room, indoor patio and an outdoor patio dining. Both the indoor patio and outdoor patio have a great view. It's super easy to miss this little spot. It's tucked in behind a ski rental store. Look for the "WINE & DINE" sign to find the restaurant entrance. October 2020

Probably our best meal of the trip. The service was top notch & the food tasted fresh. We had the Chicken Fried Ribeye, Shrimp Scampi, Fish & Chips, kids Mac and Cheese & kids hamburgers. All great. The kids Mac and Cheese is money. All was delicious. If you're looking for a date night with the spouse, this is a good spot. It seemed a little more upscale than everything in the area, but they sat us with all of us being "under dressed".

We had a wonderful evening with Maria waiting on us. Despite the overwhelming crowds, she maintained a smile, and politeness. The food is always worth waiting for. You definitely can't go there expecting a quick meal. Very nice to seat and dine. Can't wait to go back. Thank you Maria

Excellent food for our entire family. Empanadas, Arroz con Mariscos, and the chicken fried ribeye were favorites. Beautiful setting for a lovely summer meal on the patio.

Best place to eat in Angel Fire! Wonderful Gem of a restaurant with great food across the board, attentive service, and exceptional atmosphere to enjoy dinner with your family and friends. Thank you for a great evening!

I had a great time at this restaurant. Our waitress was very friendly and chatty, and the food was delicious. There was even a performer that came out for entertainment! I ordered the arroz con mariscos, which my fiancé and I thought was the best dish. The rice was so flavorful and creamy, and complimented the seafood perfectly. I absolutely recommend it to any seafood lover. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because of my fiancé's dish. He ordered the bowl of beef stew; he didn't find it very flavorful. Everything else was great!

The staff was very friendly! The reviews had my hopes up that this food was going to be amazing; it was not. It was ok, nothing to write home about. We had the chicken fried sirloin, lomo saltado, burgers and shrimp scampi. I would eat here again if I really didn't want to cook. Also the prices are pretty high for the quality of food. When I ordered, I was ok paying almost $180 for our meal with the high reviews, but not with what we got...way overpriced. Again the staff was nice, polite, attentive and very friendly!

Good food and service, with live entertainment. Folks eat early here...most tables where empty by 8pm

I love this place. Up here for the fire repair on Calf Canyon and I eat here almost every night. Not a bad dish on their menu and the chicken fried ribeye is amazing

My wife and I went here for an anniversary dinner. The staff was awesome, very friendly and attentive. I had the Chupe de camarones plate which was absolutely amazing. It was very rich and the peppers had an amazing flavor. Highly recommend.

Fantastic food and service! Even comes with an entertaining belly dancer! The ambiance was great.

Food was absolutely amazing at this place. I got the ribeye and my boyfriend got the elk tenderloin, we both loved our meals. Our waiter however... Our waiter came to our table a total of four times, the first time was to take our order, the second time was to pick up an empty appetizer plate, the third time was to collect the money, and the fourth time was to bring our change back. Not once was he actually checking on us and we were there for over an hour and a half. My boyfriend and I both got a fountain drink and he finished his drink before the food even came out and when our server came to pick up our appetizer plate, he looked at my boyfriends glass and completely ignored it. He also kept looking over at our empty drinks, ignored them and continued to talk to other waiters. We eventually also ran out of water so I asked to ask a different server to refill our drinks who stopped what he was doing and got us another drink. Everyone else around us had a waiter or waitress who seemed great and attentive.

Truly enjoyed our time at Mikuna and we're so glad we tried it. We went very early evening (before 5) on our last night in Angel Fire. I had shrimp scampi pasta which was delicious and huge portions. She had the ribeye chicken fried steak and again huge plate of food. We're going to share a plate next time lol.

Cannot comment on the food. Waiting about 15 mins, two people serving in the front saw me but didn't check me in. Eventually I just left. The fact that you can't even greet customers to tell them you're busy I wouldn't even want to deal with the possibility of a horrible service. Small town , small minds.

Ate here last night with a party of four. We had the Calamari as an appetizer and it was wonderful. Crispy, flavorful and not greasy at all. Probably the best I've had in a while. I had the Shrimp Scampi and it was creamy and wonderful. My table mates had the following: Chili Rellenos (2) "they were great!", Lomo Saltado which was also reported as being great!, and the Tuscan Kale Ceasar salad with chicken (it was served with a grilled chicken breast) and I heard it was wonderful as well. The service was perfect. The atmosphere is very nice. The little village of Angel Fire is lucky to have this wonderful place to get a nice meal.

The Peruvian food here is special and unexpected! I had the Chupe de Camarones with a lovely pinot. Absolutely delicious!! Dining on the patio next to the water makes for extra special family times. The waitstaff are detail oriented and attentive. The icing on the cake had to be the acceptance of our pups are on the patio. This was a memorable evening for sure.

Great food I totally recommend this place!!! Elk was awesome, Lomo was really good as well.. every thing was delicious and the service was great..

I love Peruvian Food and had to stop by while in town. Hands down the best place to eat in Angel Fire! Food was so flavorful and fresh with good quality food! I want to come back here for breakfast lunch and dinner. Server Camilo was so friendly 1000* recommend !

Had a great dinner last evening at Mikuna. Everything (including attentive service) was excellent! Can't beat the chicken-fried ribeye...very tender and flavorful with that amazing green chile gravy!

Honestly one of the best meals I've had in a long time. Our Server Maria was kind and genuinely concerned about our dining experience. She made suggestions and recommendations and was spot on! The food.... OMG!!! We ordered calamari, and wings as an appetizer. Both were great but the wings were light and crispy and perfectly cooked. For the Newark was the Chicken fried ribeye. Absolutely the most tender piece of meat and perfectly seasoned. Obviously the gravy was homemade and made with pride. Can't wait to come back tomorrow for a second round. Very grateful for the chance to enjoy this place and the staff with friends.

This is Angel Fire's hidden gem. It is operated by a Peruvian family serving a mix of ethnic and American cuisine Although it lacks any curb appeal to draw you in, once inside you will experience the finest of AF's dining. Like Anna O., my wife and I had the Elk and the Aji de Gallina and her review is spot on except we liked them both equally. The elk was perfectly cooked and almost fork tender. It was served on a bed of mashed potatoes with broccolini. The aji spice was subtle but present and a great compliment to the rice and boiled potato. Definitely not New Mexico chile spice. Give this place a try, especially if you like adventure eating.

The food was very good, and fairly priced. Service was good, the only knock, was it was cold in the dining room for a dining experience.

Authentic Peruvian food with good wine list and eclectic playlist, friendly service. Shared ceviche - good! I had limo Saltado - really good! Hubby had chicken fried ribeye - wouldn't order again. But clearly a qual choice and will come back for sure!!!
