    The food was mixed. The Caesar salad dressing tasted like it was out of a bottle. The posole was good, however. Beautiful view from the restaurant, but the temperature was cold inside--too much A/C. I figured it was turned up so high to keep the smoke out. I didn't like having to walk through the tobacco smoke of the casino to reach the restaurant. Have they thought of a tobacco-free casino?

    PRIME RIB. So good. We went for restaurant week and everyone was happy with their choices. Crab-tini salad, prime rib, shrimp and risotto, hot chocolate creme brulee. The stars were the prime rib and the brulee. Would absolutely go back, especially for the happy hour. And our one year old loved the mac n cheese!

    Disappointed. Just ok at best, food quality seems to be declining, unfortunately.

    First time visit. We went for Santa Fe restaurant week and it was wonderful. The special was an appetizer, a main entree, and dessert for $35. We both had the prime rib and it was incredible. We definitely want to go back and try other menu items.

    Another wonderful meal with incredible service. Prime rib was cooked to perfection with four of us requesting different temperatures. Perfect meal, very responsive server. Ambience was terrific and a nice sound coming from the bar area with live entertainment. Very busy place, but noise levels were fine and restaurant was exceptionally clean. All of the staff were very pleasant and accommodating. Great place.

    The crab on Fridays is always good and the service is wonderful and prompt. During the warm season, the patio offers breathtaking views of the mountains. Highly recommended.
