Some of the best New Mexican food you can eat! I highly recommend the green chile chicken enchiladas and the veggie burrito with either red or green-it's all about the avacados y'all! When the weather is good you can sit outside.

If you are wanting a very special meal this is the place to go! The views of the Sandia Mountains are spectacular seen over the fields of lavendar. The food is wonderful.

Really good Thai food at an exceptional price. This is one of our go to places! Take out or eat in-the place is small, usually efficient, and delicious! I recommend the thai basil fried rice, the papaya salad, and any of their curries, just to start.

These folks serve stellar pizza, but I go there for the huge chopped salad (I add grilled chicken). It is usually packed,so especially on the weekend, you may need to wait a few minutes. There is outdoor seating and they have a full bar, which includes some very nice Italian wines. I must warn you that it can be loud.....

In my way of thinking, this is the best growers market and local craft scene in town! From early spring to late fall, on Saturday mornings from 7am until noon, people show up very early to set up their tents and bring out their beautiful just picked fruits/veggies and their hand made wares. There is always music as well as children and dogs! Oh and don't miss a breakfast burrito from Java Joe's!
