Restaurants near Pilar Historical Marker

Almost every dish we ordered was great. This is a restaurant we go back to for special occasions and have been doing so for years. We love Japanese food and the sashimi, Spicy tuna on crispy rice were first rate. The Japanese eggplant with miso is another of our favorites. The crab hand roll was ok. We would choose the fried oysters instead. We shared the short rib dish. It was delicious. The vanilla infused fennel and parsnip/pear purée amazing with the richness of the wagyu short ribs. Our dessert of the pear tart with vanilla ice cream was heavenly. And the birthday yuzu creamsicle with a cheese cake like filling was delicious. As always the service and ambiance perfect. A perfect evening of celebration.

It was a beautiful visit, the only complaint I have is people talking so loud that I can hear every detail of the conversation. I go to relax and enjoy the quiet time, some people are just inconsiderate.

Aceq is my favorite restaurant in the area and I never pass up an excuse to have a special night out to dinner there.

Food was all good. However I ordered the bison ribs for $43, which should have been called bison rib- singular, because it was a very small plate with the equivalent of one rib. It was good but really guys?!? Everything else was good and reasonable sized portions. Just kind of steamed about paying that much for one rib!

Beautiful restaurant with excellent food. Pricey but less pricey than other restaurants we’ve been to in Santa Fe.
