On our first foray into old town Bernalillo we stumbled upon The Range Cafe. Click here to go to their website.
What a nice surprise!
First, the decor was clever with lots of stoves (range...get it?) in all colors and sizes, but mostly the food and service were outstanding.
Chris had one of his favorites: huevos rancheros. According to the menu it's two eggs, blue corn tortilla, choice of red or green chili, cheddar, range fries and pinto beans.
His review: "Top notch"
I sampled the range fries and they were quite tasty.
I had a caprese sandwich: grilled rye bread, mozzarella cheese, tomato, and pesto with a side of tossed salad and home made blue cheese dressing.
My review: Yum! The blue cheese dressing was particularly fresh and de-lish.
They had a beautiful dessert case that included individual creme brulee and other treats. I seem to recall some softball sized cinnamon rolls. We didn't have dessert but that might be an outing in our near future.
They also have a very nice high end gift shop. We didn't spend too much time there but there were many temptations, especially the jewelry.
When customers at the campground ask for a restaurant recommendation we always tell them about The Range Cafe. It's a place where we'll be sure to take our guests (hint...hint...).
yum, yum! Can't wait to try it when I am there in a month... :)
