    Loved this place! The atmosphere was fantastic, the service was awesome, and the food was terrific!! Upscale fusion restaurant with lots of menu and drink choices. If you can't decide on just one thing they have tapas (or little plates) so you try a couple of different things. We got the chips and salsa with guacamole and queso. I got two tapas. The green chile Mac and cheese with steak, and the shishito peppers. The peppers were my favorite. We also got a desert. The gooey butter cake. I am not a big cake fan, but this was delicious 😋 I would definitely recommend and go back. They have a nice outdoor patio. They also sell things like jarred olives, and there is also a little shop attached to the restaurant. If you are looking for something different this is the place to try.

    This is my first visit here, but it won't be me last. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting Las Cruces. The waitress Sam (female) was amazing. She was very knowledgeable of the wines available and the food menu. The building is clean and well maintained. The Pasta Margherita was delicious, and we added chicken to this meal. It became even more amazing.

    Expensive but delicious. Great service. Patio chairs were VERY uncomfortable. Dog friendly patio, which was great. Butter cake is amazing.

    During Covid time, they only have outdoor seating. Their patio is really nice. We went on a Sunday and there was live music! It was perfect! Definitely call for reservation, they were pretty busy. The staff was very lovely.

    Service is fair, I ordered the heart to hear salad, im kinda disappointed as a salad the Romaine lettuce is cooked, not fully, the outer layer, which is a NO to me. The fried calamari is soft and flavorless. That's why I give 3 stars only.

    I ordered the Green Chile Smothered Steak (chicken fried steak), and I was impressed how good it was!! The service was great, and the atmosphere had a relaxing vibe.

    Love love love! It has everything for your casual dining experience. They have 2 outdoor dining patios with chilling fans. The lighting and decor are mystical. The best part is the food. I’ve had a sampling of at least half of the menu and everything has been delicious. Service is also wonderful. Last visit I had the Gambas shrimp, Brie wontons, and a pickled pear mimosa. Rating 5s across the board.

    Went here after Church and honestly not impressed with the service or the food. Does not match the quaility with the prices. I paid less for an Arrachera tacos at Corralitos (in Canuntillo, TX) than the small portion of over cooked (bland) steak that is not true Arrachera. Waitress was not very attentive and we had to ask for everything. explained to her how the bill was to be split and I still ended up paying for stuff I shouldn't have. I will admit there was a decent atmosphere but the wait and taste of the food was not worth the trip. Had a gift card for this place and it's safe to say, won't be back any time soon.

    I was passing through and ordered a carryout. I went in for the Brie Wonton that sounded delicious and then the manager who assisted me described some other yummy sounding food so I ended up with Gambas and the Creamy Poblano Corn Soup too. The wonton were ok. I think if they were fried a couple minutes less they would be great. Little too crisp and I think the cheese came out of some. Maybe order them lightly fried. But the Gambas wow!!! That's a craveable dish that you'll be dreaming of. I know I will. The spices they use for that; I believe Za'atar, and with the pico de gallo, butter and the naan make it one of the best shrimp dishes I've ever had. I would get that every time. The soup was good too but the Gambas; outstanding. Great atmosphere inside as well. I would highly recommend if in the area.

    I absolutely enjoyed my visit to this restaurant! I brought my adult children and my nephew to dinner and had fabulous service, absolutely delicious food, and fresh beverages. If you have a hankering for green chili, this is the spot. Our waitress, Alyssa, efficient, courteous, and knowledgeable. She also made us smile. I highly recommend the burgers, I had the Islander and it was cooked to perfection.

  • 2/5 Jim D. 11 months ago on Google
    I didn't eat because the waitress didn't ask to take my order for almost an hour. A friend and I were seated at 7:05. We got chips and dip and drinks within 10 minutes. When the waitress brought that out, I informed her we had another person coming , my wife. My friend already ordered a salad. I'm certain I told the waitress that my wife would not be ordering, but I would. She did not return to the table to take my order until 8 o'clock. I was a bit angry so I declined to order at that time. I prefer not eating late. My friend said the salmon on his salad was way overcooked.

    I have been here a couple of times. The first time was last November and then again in February. I loved the food and the service. I have been back the past two months and the food is no longer the same unfortunately. The artichoke chicken was over cooked both times. The pastas are flavorless, like they don’t add enough sauce. I’m not sure if they have switched kitchen staff but the food quality is noticeably worse. The last time there we waited for over an hour for our food. The service is very good but I don’t think I will be going back.

    I think I just had one of the best restaurant experiences I've ever had. Me and my friends are tourists here, and we were sent to come here by a local. We couldn't be more excited after looking at the menu before coming. After arriving, I had what I would consider an outer body experience. I couldn't believe this restaurant, how gorgeous it was, and most of all, how first class the servers were. Our server went by Sam, and she kept us happy the entire time. I've never had such above and beyond service as a matter of fact. The food was the best I've had since maybe being a child 43 years ago when my mom would make her favorite chicken. And I don't use that lightly. If you're looking for the best spot in Mesilla, you can thank me later!

    This place is better than 4.5 stars for sure. It's adorable and has a HUGE menu of interesting dishes. Tapas list is fun and was great; slads; wraps... all good. Reasonable booze and wine list... and the atmosphere is fun. We'll be back!

    Amazing food and service, they were well staffed and the staff was very friendly and nice to each other as well as guests. The house marg was a little sweet for me, but great selection of beer. Update: Still amazing, brunch enchiladas are stacked green chili enchiladas with 2 eggs on top; 100% NM, 100% delicious! Great staff too.

    We wanted a quiet dining experience and they had a sponsored Drag Show. Our table was right next to it. So, don't go on Saturday. Food w as good.

    Initially, the only reason I cycled to this eatery was to meet & greet the KRWG radio personalities. It was such a delight to finally be able to attach faces to the golden-throated voices I regularly listen to. I thoroughly enjoy the high quality/valid/factual information disseminated over the air by NPR, of which three stations (KRWG/KTEP/KUT) I always listen to and strongly support as a sustaining member. Beyond that, my evening was multiplied because of the fantastic ¡SALUD! De Mesilla staff. All were extremely pleasant and, fortunately, very busy—definitely a welcome change from the nearly ruinous pandemic lockdown. Also pleasing was that the meet & greet was held in one of their (non-smoking) patios; IAW CDC guidelines, it was nice to not wear a mask. I thoroughly enjoyed this event; excellent/fast service, delicious food, and overall very satisfying. This fine restaurant certainly has my coveted “iWheel of Approval!”

    Food was delicious. Wine selection was on point. Bartender was new and very, very slow! They do have weekly drink specials. So Yummy! Waitstaff was so great. We had a big party and the were attentive and patient with us all. We will be back.

  • 5/5 Shelly B. 6 months ago on Google
    Such a good hidden gem. 25% off wine bottles on Fri night. I had the tilapia, hubby had the half rack of ribs. Both were delish and actual human portion sizes. A must go! Matt the bartender was awesome!

  • 5/5 Cassidy Z. 5 months ago on Google
    Our food was amazing, and our server Alyssa was absolutely incredible. She had amazing recommendations and was so warm and friendly. We ordered fish and chips, lemon herb chicken, a burger, the pretzel, and pesto pasta. Kudos to the kitchen staff!! Everything was a 10/10!

    I just had the best fish sandwich ever, here! I have had plenty of Mexican style food while here and was looking for something else and I am glad I chose this. My husband had the blueberry salad and really enjoyed that as well. We had the duck confit tacos too, and they were good enough. The fish was cooked to perfection (not over done or dry) and crispy on the outside, delicate and moist on the inside, and the pickled veggies and microgreens gave such a nice flavor.
