Nothing sounds better after a long day of bargain hunting than a relaxing meal in a great restaurant.  Las Cruces has a wide range of restaurants to choose from, featuring everything from national chains and family style eateries, to popular local spots.  And if you are up to it, Las Cruces has some of the best and hottest red and green chile around!  Smack-dab in the middle of the Mesilla Valley – the chile capital of the world – the question you will hear most often is red or green, referring to whether you want red or green chile with your meal!

So, take a page from the locals, and plan you next shopping adventure to the Mesilla Valley Mall, the Old Mesilla Plaza or the Outlet Shoppes, around a great lunch and relaxing dinner – that way you can try both red and green!
