Dining in New Mexico means so much more than partaking of outstanding chile and incomparable New Mexican food. Many restaurants in several genres throughout the land of enchantment have received national acclaim. We’ve been fortunate to have visited many of those and while some didn’t make much of an impression, other nondescript restaurants with little acclaim blew us away. On the list below, I rank (by rating then alphabetical order) my very favorite restaurants in New Mexico. For a review of my rating system, please click here<\/a><\/strong>. By clicking on the name of the restaurant for which you wish to know my opinion, you will be magically transported directly to my review of that restaurant. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
