Don’t forget the great food and views at the Museum Hill Café, or the elevated dining experience at SkyFire at Bishop’s Lodge. If it’s Italian you’re looking for, there’s Andiamo!, Piccolino, and Rustica. How about BBQ? There’s the Ranch House, Cowgirl BBQ, or try the spare ribs at Maria’s. Many of the participating restaurants feature fine New Mexican cuisine, such as Atrisco’s Café & Bar, Blue Corn Café, Café Castro, and Café Fina.
Try the Green Bourbon Burger at Bourbon Grill, Leo’s Smackdown Burger at Horno, a Buffalo or Lamb Burger at Tune Up Café, or the delicious Green Chile Cheeseburger at Santa Fe Bite. There’s the Flat Iron Steak at Rio Chama or the choice cuts of beef at Palace Prime. Paloma has a mouth-watering Sea Bass Veracruz, or try the amazing caldos (soups) at Mariscos Costa Azul.
Second Street Brewery Rufina Taproom has some great brews and pub food and you can’t beat the Pecos Trail Café for a laid-back lunch or dinner. Of course, you can always count on Joe’s Dining for a great lunch. TerraCotta Wine Bistro features some creative cuisine combinations and Paper Dosa has a classic masala. Sometimes nothing will do but a waffle from High Desert.
Is your mouth watering yet?
Wait, there’s more . . . there’s Café Pasqual’s Grilled Double Lamb Chops, the Argentine, Italian, and Armenian flavors of Cafecito, or the Redbird Chicken Paillard at Estevan Restaurante. For some sizzling fajitas, check out the Flying Tortilla. India House has irresistible Indian fare, and Izanami is known for its upscale izakaya-style food. The Jerk Chicken at Jambo Bobcat Bite and the Ethiopian Chickpea Barbeque Stew at Jambo Café are amazing dishes.
Looking for some history with your meal? The historic Legal Tender in Lamy will participate in Angels Dine Out on Sunday, April 21 with Lunch and Dinner. Reservations are required.
