    Santa Fe Skillet

    The portion was a good size. The favors were all so good together. Would definitely recommend

    Supposed to be over medium.  Not even close. - A breakfast plate with eggs and fried potatoes is on a wooden table, accompanied by a coffee mug and a glass of water.

    The green chili is hot and good, but the biscuit was dry and the over medium eggs were runny. A typical "greasy spoon" and I know something is good here. I just didn't get it today.

    Navajo Huevos Rancheros - A serving of Navajo Huevos Rancheros on a white oval plate, topped with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, and a fried egg, with fried bread on the side.

    First this place has the propensity for a Five Star review. I got breakfast enchiladas and my wife Navajo huevos. The portions were huge and flavor fantastic. The food was served quickly but otherwise the server really didn't check on us very often. I'll definitely be back, but hopefully next time with a more proactive server.

    A nice restaurant with a good menu selection, reasonable prices and friendly service. I was in the mood for a Belgium Waffle so I decided to try this restaurant. I got there about a half an hour before closing and go seated immediately. Waffle was good and I got it topped with blueberries and whipped cream. I did notice they had a pumpkin pie in the dessert cabinet which is nice to see outside of the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays. I definitely will try this restaurant again.

    Copper Omelet - A breakfast plate featuring an omelet with bell peppers, tomatoes, and ham, alongside crispy hash browns and a lemon wedge, served on a ceramic plate.

    Solid cafe for breakfast with all the usual options and good prices for the amount of food you get. I had the Copper omelet with hash browns. Wait staff was very friendly and managed our large group very well. The dining room is spacious and has a back room for larger parties.

    Median age is probably 70. Menu is basic. The soup special was green Chile chicken soup, it was terrible, inedible. I won't be back.

It's difficult to find good restaurants that can cater to young adults and have REALLY good food and service. We came first on Sunday for brunch. The food was very good. It was a bit small on the portions though. We had breakfast enchiladas and omelet and blue corn pancakes. Then we came back for dinner. The chicken mole was divine, tacos, sea bass, pork steak etc. absolutely perfect. Good portions. Food tastes like it was homemade. The cuisine is Mexican...not New Mexican. The server was great about answering any questions and willing to omit something if possible. Our server was attentive and so gracious. The wine list was surprisingly good. We had a French Viognier for less than $50. Finally the owner came out to talk to us and thanks us for coming. I'm in the business and haven't had this kind of service for a long time. Our son with Celiac was very satisfied, but also we all were. I would absolutely come back regardless of food restrictions. Please go!!

The property seems massive and it's really beautiful with all the cottonwood trees. When you get into the restaurant, there are just tons of combinations of these cozy little nooks, long dining tables, separated rooms, patio seating, and event spaces. There is something to see everywhere you look; fountains, fireplaces, and plants, hanging chiles, and more. They even raise cattle and chickens on property and source from their own greenhouse for their menu items. The ambience was just really cool and even though the winds were blowing like crazy, we were totally comfortable out in the patio section with the screens up. The food is authentic New Mexican cuisine. They brought out delicious tortilla chips for us to snack on while we decided on what to order. It really felt like there was no wrong choice to make. They were very accommodating for food allergies and restrictions. There was great flavor in everything our group tried. I split the half order of chicken nachos and it was a hefty half order! I was so stuffed, but then, hot sopapillas appeared and I couldn't say no to those! Especially not since the tables had their own sourced honey. There is also a full tequila bar, but since we were traveling with kids, didn't get to take too much advantage of that as an option. I wish we would've had more to explore the property but if I end up back in the Albuquerque area, I'll stop by again.

The good: The red chile rubbed ribs are phenomenal, but 1/2 rack for $44?! It's not a lobster tail. Beans and guac-excellent, calabacitas-very good. The chicken enchiladas-delicious with tender chicken. The bad: 2 Grand Gold margaritas at $15 each that were neither grand or gold. I've had better house margaritas at Applebees, lol. Their red chile was sparse, but that actually turned out in my favor because it was on the edge of burnt. A bit acrid. The sopas were dense, flat, chewy, and overcooked. The salsa-underwhelming. If you want excellent Grand Gold margaritas, the best salsa in New Mexico, and excellent portion sizes- SADIE'S ALL THE WAY!!!
