My wife and I have been on a Ramen kick here recently, and this place is good, with vegetarian and vegan options, as well. Fairly priced for the quantity, it's been on our A-list for a while now.

Thai Express is a real hole-in-the-wall, and it doesn't look like much from the outside, but their Pad Thai is a hearty dinner choice that we enjoy relatively often, and it's perfect for takeout.

Some of the best authentic New Mexican food you'll find in the city. An all time favorite of my in-laws (they're "Garcia's" for what that's worth). Cash only, though, so go prepared!

Looking for big portions? Sadie's is your spot. I'd recommend the stuffed sopapilla with red chile, or the chile relleno. They have other locations listed as "Sadies of New Mexico" if you're Googling.

Il Vicino is, personally, one of our favorite restaurants. Affordable, with a brewery of their own (get the Slow Down Brown or the IPA), this Wood Oven Pizza & Italian offering is superb!

Drinks & Nightlife
Not so much a "bar" as a brewery, La Cumbre has been a local favorite of ours, four years strong. Hopped-up and Gold-Medaled beer brewing champions... if you're one for craft brew, give it a try.
