Fodor's Expert Review Joseph's Culinary Pub
$$$
Railyard District
Modern American
Chef-restauranteur Joseph Wrede has garnered countless accolades since the 1990s at various restaurants in Taos and then Santa Fe, and his current eatery—a stylish gastropub set in a vintage adobe with low beamed ceilings, slate floors, and a cozy patio—continues to showcase his considerable talents, featuring a menu of deliciously updated comfort fare. Dishes you're already familiar with receive novel twists, including caviar-topped duck fat-fried potato chips with crème fraîche, pickled onion, and cured egg yolk; and posole verde with chicken, a farm egg, tomatillos, and avocado. The steak au poivre is one of the best in town, and Joseph's doesn't skimp on the desserts either—save some space or you may miss out on a very sweet ending.
