| Customer Reviews: Restaurant reviews were right on February 11, 2008 Allegra Valentine (Macungie, PA USA) 5 out of 6 found this review helpful
We were staying with a local in Taos whose restaurant reviews for the area echoed the ones in the book. One of the restaurant listings even mentioned the exact dish she always get at that locale (Tres Colores).
One addition - try to make happy hour at The Alley (the oldest building in town, used to be a trading post) which is just steps off the plaza (where they have free concerts on Thursday nights in the summer) for some really incredible (and cheap) margaritas.
We didn't go wrong with the restaurant or tourist attraction recommendations in Albuquerque either. I thought this was a GREAT guide!

We were heading to Northern New Mexico for the first time and this book helped us plan our trip for maximum enjoyment. What an amazing area!
