I have visited my sister in Albuquerque many times in past years. We’ve eaten at many restaurants, but this was our first time... at La Fonda del Bosque. What an incredible treat! It was my sister’s anniversary, but we didn’t say anything about it. Youwould have thought we did by our service and outstanding lunch! Located on the grounds of the Hispanic Cultural Center, theparking lot and courtyard were filled with pretty flowering trees. The large dining room had a tall ceiling and windows thatflooded it with natural light. There was a beautiful kiva fireplace with candles and orchids. Soft, relaxing music played. Weordered the warm chips and four salsas (all homemade). I took a chance on the chili relleno (in the past restaurants served themsmothered in chili sauce). It was crispy and filled with wild mushrooms, caramelized onions and cheese. It was crunchy (notgreasy) and served on a bed of corn and red peppers. A fresh side salad with homemade dressing was also included. My sister hadchicken tacos, and her husband had a green chili cheeseburger. We all said these were the best local dishes we’ve ever had! Wehad food from all the dishes to take home. We had to order the dessert to take home. The brownie was moist, and the churros werethe best I’ve ever had - a soft puffy inside, cinnamon sugar on the outside, and served with a fluffy chocolate dip. Bothhomemade. We didn’t order cocktails because we wanted to try the fresh lemonade and lavender tea. Both luscious. While wewaited for dessert, our delightful server Josiah brought us each a taste of a chili margarita. The taste of spice was light anddidn’t overwhelm the drink. So we got to toast their anniversary! Truly gourmet lovely lunch for a very reasonable price.Only wish I could go more often!!!! Read more
We had the Chinese BBQ duck quesadilla (an appetizer, $8) and the Mesquite steak taco plate (entree. $12). The latter was very... good and good quantity. The former barely had duck - about 4 small slices. See the photos. An added bonus is that they hadtheir monthly art exhibit- interesting art and some very good hors d'oeuvres.. Cost was $20 plus tip.

My first chicken-wild mushroom crepe! Plus, one can explore theNational Hispanic Cultural Center after dining! Read more
I ordered the chipotle tomato bisque which was really good. Side of homemade bread that was amazing. My fiancé ordered the... Dagwood sandwich but they accidentally brought us the daily special sandwich. We didn’t say anything because he was stillreally pleased with the sandwich. You can tell the food is fresh and made to order. Read more
