The 9 Best Hotel Restaurants in Santa Fe
One of the top culinary destinations in the Southwest, Santa Fe is home to a slew of James Beard–nominated chefs, with some of the most renowned kitchen talents overseeing restaurants in local hotels. Several other properties in and around Santa Fe are known for their hearty and affordable New Mexican fare.
Inn at Vanessie
Why it made the list
It's just a short walk across the parking lot to reach this tony inn's steakhouse, Vanessie, which in addition to serving tasty chops and other contemporary American fare also presents enjoyable cabaret entertainment each evening.
Pecos Trail Inn
Why it made the list
The inexpensive and cheerful restaurant at this budget-oriented property on the southeast side of town flies a bit under the rader, but its Pecos Trail Cafe serves excellent and filling Northern New Mexican fare.
Sunrise Springs Spa Resort
Why it made the list
Overlooking the resort's pretty pond and verdant grounds, Blue Heron Restaurant serves a seasonally changing menu that's focused on healthful and fresh local ingredients. It's open for three meals a day, and the brunch is especially popular (try the banana pancakes with local honey).
Garrett's Desert Inn
Why it made the list
Although this budget '50s-style motor lodge in the heart of the Downtown historic district has only so-so accommodations, it's home to a legit restaurant, Santa Fe Bite, whose green-chile cheeseburgers rank among the best in all of New Mexico. This quirky and casual diiner-style eatery also serves up great steaks and Northern New Mexican specialties, too.
Rosewood Inn of the Anasazi
Why it made the list
Restaurant Anasazi is a stylish, sophisticated 38-seat dining room that features some of the most deftly executed contemporary cuisine in Santa Fe. There's an extensive wine list, and service is top-notch. The prix-fixe lunches are one of the better deals in town among upscale restaurants.
