I may have eaten here once, but I'm not positive. Glad I came in to see campus again and grab a bite. I got the Putting Green Burger with green chile. It was pretty tasty. The fries are fresh fried potatoes. They were well done, but I should've asked for double fried because fresh potato fries tend to have more water and aren't as crispy. The service was fast and friendly. I thought the place was cool with the open kitchen layout. Its neighbor is the pro shop which has a lot of cool gear.

It is difficult to find restaurants open on Sunday in Socorro so I searched Yelp and found M…read moreMountain Grill. There weren't many reviews but I decided to give it a try. First off, forget the Yelp map because you will never find it where it is shown. It is actually in the University golf course club house off Olive Drive. The ladies working there were very pleasant and gave good service. The Grill has a nice ambiance. There were quite a few people in there that were not golfers. I had their green chili cheeseburger which was as good as I have had in Socorro. To my pleasant surprise, they actually made freshly cut french fries....a favorite of mine. In my book they deserve a fourth star for that alone. Give them a try.

While driving back to Santa Fe from southern New Mexico, we happened upon a listing for a wine…read moretasting room in Belen. This was a worthy stop. It was Sunday evening and we rolled in about an hour before closing. There was a small group of locals hanging out. We ordered our tasting flights and were advised to grab some snacks from the table nearby. There were some fruits, veg, crackers, cheese and the most wonderful bread. The bread, we later found out, was made by one of the farmers who was hanging out for the evening with his wife. We complimented his bread making skills. The wines were delicious! I tried the 2023 Riesling, Petit Verdot Rosé, Desert Rose, Rio Abajo Red and the 2021 Norton. I am not normally a sweet wine person, but the Riesling and Desert Rose were delicious. We ended up purchasing a bottle of the Norton to take home and glasses were included with the tasting. We felt welcomed and enjoyed our conversation with the folks that were there.

She was very helpful and I greatly appreciate how she handled the situation. I'm not much of a wine drinker myself but would definitely highly consider returning to enjoy a glass at some point.

Heart of the Desert Pistachios & Wine - Came for Pistachios, Left with Wine…read more We stopped here with a simple mission: grab a few bags of pistachios as gifts for friends back home. Easy, right? Well... not quite. The store itself is quaint and charming, filled with all kinds of temptations. Pistachios in every form, chocolates, wines, and gift options that make you rethink your original plan. You can taste a little of everything, which is both delightful and dangerous. Then we stepped out onto the patio with our pistachio ice cream, and wow... completely unexpected. The space is gorgeous. Calm, open, and the kind of place that makes you slow down without even trying. Honestly, if I lived nearby, I'd be planning celebrations here without a second thought. Somewhere between the views and the tasting, I tried their pistachio rosé. And yes, I had the same reaction, "wait... what?" But it worked. Different, pleasant, and surprisingly good. Good enough that I completely abandoned my pistachio gift plan and walked out with several bottles instead. A much more unique surprise. The staff were warm and welcoming, adding to the whole experience. No rush, no pressure, just genuine friendliness. We didn't have as much time as I would have liked, and that's probably the only downside. This is the kind of place where you want to linger longer, taste more, and just enjoy the moment. Came for pistachios. Left with wine and zero regrets.

How about those shiny floors everywhere! It's not just about amazing pistachios (though they're so good )--it's about the passion and purpose that go into everything you do. It's rare to see that level of care, and it made the visit truly special. The inviting patio to sip on wine amongst the carefully pruned trees was a bonus Grateful for such an inspiring experience, especially Melissia and Sabrine. #SupportLocal #SustainableFarming #Gratitude

When I went on a Friday, they did have a bouncer checking IDs. The inside of the bar gave me house party vibes. The inside looks like a home with a bar that serves beer and not a big selection of it. The dance floor is big enough to accommodate several people with no problem. The ambiance was fun but chill. The DJ that was playing knew how to keep the dance floor packed. The music was great! All in all, if you feel like dancing, this place is a good option as long as you're not a picky drinker because there wasn't a big selection of drinks here. If you just want to hangout with some friends, the patio is a good option. It's chill and with plenty of seating.

As a traveler from out of state accompanied by two trained service dogs, I was shocked by the…read moretreatment we received at Winary Bistro. The manager incorrectly stated that service dogs must wear a vest to be recognized as service animals and demanded that we provide a "service animal certificate." We were then told that such certificates were not valid and that service animals must be registered in New Mexico before being allowed into the restaurant. None of these statements are consistent with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Service dogs are not required to wear vests, carry certificates, or be registered with any state in order to access public accommodations. It is deeply concerning that a manager responsible for serving the public appears to have such a poor understanding of federal disability law. The experience was embarrassing, discriminatory, and completely unnecessary. I have traveled extensively throughout the United States with my service dogs and have never been treated this way. I strongly encourage management to educate staff on ADA requirements before another customer is subjected to the same treatment. Until then, I cannot recommend this establishment to anyone who relies on a service animal.
