A good place to eat is Rancho de Chimayo outside of Santa Fe.
I agree, as a somewhat local resident to Santa Fe (about 45 mins for me), it is nothing special and basically tourist trap.

DW & I went thru Santa Fe on our way to Taos & Red River (family reunion) in July 2016; have been in this area several times over the years. I'd recommend/second the following:
- Acoma reservation; beautiful pottery (although delicate, ours has survived 30+ yrs & 15 moves )
- Tram to Sandia Peak in ABQ.
- Spend a few hours in Santa Fe's old square by the mission. Touristy, yes but, worthy of a few hours of your time.
- Eat lunch at Cafe Pasquale's in Old Town Santa Fe; great mole, wonderful mix of locals & tourists.
- Spend at least an afternoon in old town Taos; preferably an overnight (recommend 'The Historic Taos Inn' if you do stay overnight)
- Visit Rio Grande Gorge bridge
- If you're a fan of geography, want a pretty drive or, it's kind of on your way in/out of Taos, I'd recommend driving the Enchanted Circle as described in a post above.
Thanks Huston. Is the Enchanted Circle drive the Turquoise Trail?
Had forgotten that that's where we stayed so many years ago. Quite unique.Spent 3 nights at the La Posada in Santa Fe. It’s a great hotel. Very comfortable, unique setting, and nice amenities.
Heading home we stayed at a really nice B&B, the Violet Rose B&B in Winslow AZ. Excellent room and breakfast and a very comforable spot to stay. While we didn’t stay there, the renovated Las Posada hotel in town was a lot of fun to visit and have a couple of cocktails.
