we ate Christmas eve dinner there and our enchilada plates were served barely warm...as close to cold as it comes. We both spent our Christmas with severe diarrhea. To think we had to pay to have our holiday ruined. Never again. the ambiance was worth the star.

A visit to Albuquerque's Old Town Plaza isn't complete without lunch or dinner at La Placita. Located in an old hacienda right on the square, La Placita offers traditional New Mexican food and good service at a reasonable price. And the large dining rooms means customers rarely have to wait for a table. My favorite is the stuffed sopapilla with green chile sauce.
