Frommer's Review

Plan a sunset dinner at this restaurant at the Hyatt Tamaya, north of town. You'll feast not only on delicious innovative cuisine, but also on one of the best views in New Mexico. Set in the Rio Grande valley, with banks of windows looking out on the Sandia Mountains, this restaurant has a comfortably subdued decor wrapped around an open kitchen. The menu changes seasonally, and the offerings will likely please conventional as well as adventurous palates. Served with your bread is a tasty Southwestern tapenade made with napolito cactus. For an appetizer, you might try the seared blue lump crab cake. For an entree, the big favorite is the rotisserie -- an interesting combination of meats and seafood. You'll also find an excellent lobster-stuffed buffalo tenderloin served with potatoes and braised endive. Dessert brings a dazzling display of confections as lively to look at as to taste. Wine lovers have their pick of a broad range of labels.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
