About

We didn't put New Mexico on the map, but we've been helping people find it for over 52 years.

Story

El Pinto started as a seven table restaurant over 50 years ago, in 1962. "The Salsa Twins" John and Jim Thomas took over the restaurant from their parents in the 80's and today it is a New Mexico icon. From the famous margaritas enjoyed on beautiful patios to the green chile and red chile enjoyed on each entree this is a true taste of New Mexico cuisine. El Pinto salsa, red chile, and green chile is distributed in local grocery stores nationwide.

From what I was told, the restaurant occupies the entirety of an 1800s Hacienda. It's large and sprawling and beautiful! This was my first time - went with a large group for celebratory dinner. Service and food we're good! Will definitely go back.

This is an absolutely beautiful restaurant and is great for parties, weddings, business meetings, etc. Be aware, some of their food is extremely spicy. They offer a buffet for lunch though I have not liked the food offered at the buffet. I would suggest sticking with the menu. It offers indoor and outdoor seating. It is an experience you will never forget.

Very friendly wait staff. Clean place. The food is very delicious! Loved the avocado dip! It will be best to make reservations, because it does get a bit busy.

Great food and atmosphere. Sometimes it can get expensive but the ambiance is worth it. They also offer some Gluten Free options but you have to ask for the separate menu. They have a great green chili burger on a gluten free bun!

I had been here before and gave them a bad review, but came again for my husband's company dinner after the holiday season. They saved our group one of the first rooms to the right when walking back towards the dining area. They took our orders as soon as everyone had arrived, our drinks stayed full throughout the evening and everyones food was incredible. I was highly impressed this time around. Definitely try and eat inside and not in the heated/covered patio in the winter.
