Salud de Mesilla

One of the best places for apps and drinks I've ever been to. Order the antipasto plate and the octopus tacos.

I cannot say enough good things about this place! I don't live in town but this place was recommended by my family years ago and it's one of my absolute favorite spots! We used Salud for my mom's surprise 60th and now my grandmother's passing. They are super easy to work with and the food is phenomenal!

We came on a Friday evening around 5pm. It wasn't busy at all which was quite surprising. We sat at a high top table in the bar area where the bartender Onola "Ohn-a-lay" served us. She ran this area like a Boss! She was very attentive and checked on us several times throughout our dining experience. She also very friendly and suggested items on the menu that were her favorite as well as those that were very tasty. The bar area was dim and cozy. There was upbeat music playing but not too loud. I had the fish n chips which was cooked perfectly. Crispy on the outside and light and tender on the inside. It came with a jalapeño aioli which was quite tasty but very spicy. I love hot--but this one kicked me in the back of the throat. Jalapeños lovers will appreciate this one. I also ordered an Old Fashioned which she finished with a maraschino dark cherry and a blood orange slice. It was made so perfectly that I had to order a second one to sip on while my husband finished off our creme brûlée. It was truly one of the best old fashioned Ive had as traveler for the last 4 years all across America. My husband had the Classic Burger. It was juicy and had that char grill flavor and seasoned with salt and pepper just as a good quality beef should only need. The French fries were seasoned battered fries and quite delicious. The creme brûlée may not look as present g as most because of the red sauce on top--but it's a strawberry sauce that complimented very well. If you are passing through and want a good place to eat with many varieties as well as their own uniqueness that you'll never find anywhere else try Salud!It's a family owned establishment with a jewelry and accessory store beside it. Unfortunately I was unable to browse because it closed at 6pm. We'd definitely come back if we ever come back west.

We got a perfect morning to sit on the patio. Our server, Jazz, was just a delight! Had good suggestions, noticed water glasses and checked in enough without being overwhelming. Now let's talk about what fun the Bloody Mary and mimosa bar can be! I had a peach mimosa, but not the bar, and it was delicious. My friend made her own Bloody Mary and said the only thing missing was celery stalks. They had celery salt, but that's not crunchy! Salad in a glass with a generous pour on the vodka side. Sunday also had prime rib tacos for $1.50, so we started with those. Very fresh, pretty ample amount of prime rib, flavorful sauce, tomatoes and lettuce. We would do those again. Next we did their nachos, which are discounted on Sunday. We added grilled chicken and that was a great addition. 3 of us had more than enough to eat with a taco each and shared nachos. Incredibly affordable, drinks and splitting the meal came to about $15 each. I should have taken a picture of the nachos, but we dove right in!

This is one of my favorite spots in Las Cruces. I originally discovered it as a poor, sleep deprived student who just needed a place to study. However, it has kept me coming back for several years.The staff is incredibly friendly. I've had the chance to talk with the owner a couple of times, what a gem! They are one of the many highlights of this place. The space is comforting. Great bar seating, great patio, and different dining rooms with lovely tables. The food is always excellent. From brunch to dinner to drinks, I am never disappointed. Sometimes they rotate out menu items and have new things featured.

After a day of hiking White Sands, we headed to Salud de Mesilla. We had our dog, luckily he was allowed on their outdoor patio. We had margaritas and the Brie wontons And the Festival Flamed quesadilla with chicken . Delicious. We did find it silly for them to charge us $1.50 for a small container of salsa. Especially when sour cream and guacamole were included. * hilarious that they have STL toasted ravioli on the menu! We lived there for 17 years. Found out one of the owners is from there.

The burger had a decent size and those fries went along perfectly with it. The bread was probably the factor that made it more unique. The presentation matches the ambiance that made me forget about time and enjoy the conversation.The service is good and helpful. The server recommended some items and even explained some of the process to us which made us trust and crave the food even more.I can't wait to return and see what else I can get from their delicious menu. Provecho!

Best service and food! Def a staple in our household to go to every couple months. The Serrano aioli with the fish is soooo tasty. Nice outdoor seating too when it's nice out

My wife, Laura, loves this place for the food, service and ambience. I have also had very good luck here. And we take some treasured friends here when they visit which speaks volumes. Tom S

We went for the Scotch Tasting. The options were good and the ribs were sweet, according to my son.
