Profile

The low-ceilinged, stucco-walled room evokes Arizona 206, but the wine list, full of interesting New World selections, is a happy surprise in a place that visually prepares you for a margarita onslaught. The whimsical menu, too, breaks the mold with unexpected combinations like mole-braised short ribs with jalapeño gnocchi and “Santa Fe shepherd’s pie of chili mac and Iggy’s jack.” — Rob Patronite and Robin Raisfeld

Brunch

Sat.—Sun., 11:30 a.m.—4 p.m., a la carte or $13.95 prix-fixe

Happy Hour
Daily, 4 p.m.—7 p.m.; half-priced frozen margaritas, draft beers and house wine

Prix-Fixe Lunch

Note

Started with Hatch green chile corn chowder w/chicken, very hearty and extremely well balanced dish. A hint of chile, tomatoes offered a sweetness, wonderful choice when very cold, very hungry, or both. Chile crusted seared Ahi tuna was cooked perfectly...Read More
