Mexican food
A few Mexican food places that we like in northern New Mexico and southern Colorado:
New Mexico
Taos, NM: Orlando's....get there early. Not much seating space and it fills up quickly. Very authentic and spicey!
Taos, NM: Guadalajara Grill: Two locations in Taos. Excellent food. You order at the counter, so nothing fancy, but the food is great.
Santa Fe, NM: Los Potrillos (on Cerrillos Rd), in an old Pizza Hut, so nothing fancy, but great food.
Santa Fe, NM: Maria's....one of the old authentic restaurants, on most everyone's list for Santa Fe.
Colorado:
Pagosa Springs, CO: Kip's Grill & Cantina....can't beat it!
Alamosa, CO: Calvillo's Mexican Restaurant.....buffet or order off the menu.
Pueblo, CO: Tres Margaritas, just off I-25 at Hwy 50. Consistently good food and excellent service. There are a couple of more Tres Margaritas in Colorado Springs, too. Maybe a couple more further north on I-25.
Trinidad, CO: Tequila's Mexican Restaurant, just off I-25 on the south end of town. Must be associated with Tres Margaritas, menu and decor is very similar.
