Best restaurants near me in Española, NM

There were 4 of us…we enjoyed mushrooms, eggplant, black noodles, apple Kimchi salad, a tempura/spicy crab maki roll, crunchy tuna and sea bass. Every dish was well prepared and timely served. Neo (Daniel) our server, was charming, knowledgeable, and very helpful. It was a great dinner celebrated with friends.

Great meal, wonderful service, attentive staff. We celebrated a birthday with 8 of us. I had requested a quiet area and they delivered! The waitstaff serenaded our birthday guest and provided flan with a candle and a hat! The seafood fajitas were outstanding as were the beef, every dish was presented perfectly. We especially enjoyed the prickly pear margaritas. Sopapillas are not to be missed for dessert. None of us had dined here in the past, but this will be our new tradition! Don't miss the tableside Guacamole, the best I have had yet in New Mexico.

As always, an exemplary dining experience. Delicious appetizers and main dishes: roasted beet salad, mushroom bisque, pork shank, and rack of lamb. Ambience and service were top-notch. Servers were friendly and professional. I have two very minor complaints, and both involve the bread. Geronimo’s used to deliver an impressive bucket of bread with long pieces of lavage oriented vertically, creating an impressive architectural display! Now, it appears they have shifted to more of a standard issue bread basket, which included two types of bread and several pieces of delicious lavash. While eating our main dish, we requested some additional lavash and butter. I expected that we’d get a fresh bowl of lavash and butter. Instead, the server put a couple of pieces of lavash in our existing bread basket and didn’t bring any butter. Not a big deal, but what could have been an absolutely perfect meal was slightly marred by the disappointing bread issues and somewhat stingy refill. Bring back your beautiful bread buckets!!!

Our board loves coming here for the holiday lunch. Nice private room and waitstaff. We started with the great dumplings and calamari. The feature pasta was popular! Steak frites and tacos were delicious as well. We will be back soon.

Thanksgiving feast was awesome. Turkey and sides were delicious. Gabriel was our server. He was attentive and fun to converse with. He spoiled us! Starters, main course, and desert were the best. I walked by the kitchen and applauded them for the great job. Every restaurant should require their STAFF'S to watch "The Bear" on HULU. It is raising the populations expectations of fine dining and may certainly help establishments raise their own bars. Stay ahead of the curve. LOL
