Gabriel’s
It’s worth the 12-mile drive north of Santa Fe to eat at Gabriel’s. The scenic patio and beautiful interior, hung with Miguel Martinez’s art, are fabulous spots to enjoy fresh guacamole, made to order at your table, excellent New Mexican cuisine and even better ribs. Plan to drop by if you’re headed to the flea market or points north.

Plaza Café
Serving hearty meals since before the roads were paved, this Formica-furnished 1918 establishment still makes one of the best breakfasts around and offers great New Mexican food. (The café's 'not responsible for chile that is too hot.') It prides itself on a varied menu, welcomes kids and offers an unusual perk - a list of New Mexico politicians' phone numbers. Give someone a ring and let them know what you think.

Santa Fe Bar & Grill
OK, so it's not in a historic adobe, but it is located at the convenient DeVargas Center . The patio, which overlooks a parking lot, and the sleek interior are packed with folks grooving on live acoustic guitar on weekends and grubbing on Southwestern-style salads, piles of nachos with home-made chorizo and big plates of ribs.

Maria's New Mexican Kitchen
Huge portions of New Mexico standards, like the steak and chile rellenos combo topped with green chile, would make this 1952 Santa Fe standby a winner anyway. But with more than 100 margaritas (around US$6-around US$46it's a must.
