Had pretzel bites and a chicken ceaser salad. To be blunt, I was shocked at how good the chicken ceaser was. Pretzel bites were fantastic as well. They've got a good amount of beer and cider options all are from New Mexico brewers. Nice decor as well. *see pics* I wouldn't have found the place without direction of a local, and I'm happy about the recommendation! Thanks for a great meal, some good convo and some great tips for brewers outside of my home state.

Even gave us tastes of the Sotol and we bought a bottle. I husband had the Prickly Pear Margarita and loved it I had their take on the Paloma. Amazing. We had two more cocktails one with honey and egg white and the other with gin that reminded me of a gimlet. Yummy pistachios as a little snack.

Last night I had a double shot of Blue Corn Bourbon neat, an Old Fashioned with Rye, and two Kentucky Mules, all while participating in Trivia Las Cruces with my two new friends, Paulina and Steve. (We finished second). The mixologists behind the bar were great. They got my drinks to me with grace and speed and every cocktail was perfection. I appreciate the both of you very much, Dry Point also carries a small number of New Mexico breweries products, which, based on the chalkboard they were listed on much change from time to time. If you are looking for a great place to hang out with your friends for drinks, I can think of no better place than Dry Point. Stone Crow Gourmet Stone Crow Gourmet, owned by Chef Gary is located inside Dry Point as an independent entity. Perhaps one of the best things to happen was the joining of these two business. Stone Crow Gourmet takes a great bar and turns it into a great gastro-pub. I had the Smoked Salmon Crostini and I had to get a box to take some home. For those of you familiar with Crostini they are typically sliced baguettes with a smattering of goodness. Not these Crostini, these were full side French bread slice on the diagonal with generous portions of flavorful joy. I ordered the full order which was six Crostini and that friends was too much. I was able to eat two of them there, I shared one each with the aforementioned mixologists and took two home, one of which now remains after a great midnight snack. The Crostini also came with a fresh salad with tomatoes, cucumbers marinaded in something, tasty greens, all drizzled with Gary's house made vinaigrette I also got a chance to taste Chef Gary's house made Barbeque sauce and it is sweet and spicy bit of liquid magic, Can't wait to try it on a pulled pork sandwich or the rib tips. If you have been to Dry Point then you probably know everything I just said, but if you haven't been, and you enjoy gastronomical delights and great cocktails, get thee to Dry Point and Stone Crow Gourmet

My husband and I were visiting family in the area and decided to try Dry Point Distillery. Overall,…read morewe had a mixed experience. The drinks, while nicely presented, felt overpriced for the quality and taste. However, the food was truly exceptional and quickly became the focal point of our entire experience. Every dish we tried was thoughtfully prepared, full of flavor, and honestly far exceeded what we expected from a distillery setting. The chef is incredibly talented, and it's very clear that the kitchen is carrying the experience here. I genuinely hope they are being recognized and compensated well, because the food alone is what makes this place worth visiting--and what brought us back a second time. That said, the overall atmosphere felt like it was missing something. There wasn't much going on in terms of entertainment--no music, open mic, or events--which made the space feel quieter than it has the potential to be. Compared to other distilleries in town, it lacks some energy and liveliness, which is a missed opportunity given the quality of the food. We truly enjoyed the food and can't say enough good things about the chef. We'll absolutely be back for that alone--my husband and I adored it.

I ordered the Grilled Buffalo Chicken Salad, and it hit all the right notes the chicken was grilled perfectly with just the right amount of buffalo heat, and the salad itself was fresh, crisp, and well-portioned. You could tell care went into the prep everything tasted clean and balanced, not just thrown together. Seth, our server, was excellent attentive, polite, and professional without being overbearing. He checked in at the right times and made sure we were taken care of throughout the meal. It's that kind of thoughtful service that makes a difference and keeps people coming back. The atmosphere was modern and relaxed clean tables, good lighting, and an overall comfortable vibe that made it easy to enjoy the meal.

This place popped up on the map nearby and was chosen by a family member. We went in for an early dinner around 5pm, with a reservation as other reviews said to reserve and we had 8 people. At that time, we didn't need to book anything, was plenty of space, but by the time we left it had filled up in the front bar and seating area near the fireplace and the dining room in the back where we had been. The food was solid. A couple people in our group ordered the ribeye which was good, a burger, and we had 2 servings of the green chile pork stew, that was my favorite thing. It had a really nice green chile flavor and some good heat to it. I liked the cheese, sour cream, and delicious tortillas served with it. I ordered a glass of wine but I didn't love it, it was a heavier red than I like, should have had a beer or iced tea. All in all, a unique restaurant to have a family dinner, with an old time ambiance and modern service & food. They have a door to the old opera house area that people can go check out, it was definitely run down and lackluster back there. Doesn't seem to be used at this time and smelled of fried food. Maybe kitchen smells waft back there. Not much of a draw, however the front entrance and saloon area was cool.
