Red Enchilada is one of those places that locals know about but is a bit off the radar. It's also off the beaten path in a small strip mall off Cerrillos Road. The interior is downright casual but the food, a mix of northern New Mexican and Salvadoran cuisine, is good. Santa Fe has a number of cooks from El Salvador and a few have opened their own eateries. The menu offers a few Salvadoran dishes such as papusas as well New Mexican-inspired ones including tacos, enchiladas and burritos. Prices are the same at lunch and dinner. There's a great selection of entrees priced at around $7. The highest price on the menu is $10.95 for a steak. Portions are ample. If you still have room, try their house-made tres leche cake or flan for dessert.

EXPERT TIPS BY:

Santa Fe Local Expert
- Best Value: "Start your meal at the Red Enchilada with papusas, a traditional Salvadoran dish made with a corn tortilla and filling. They're served with a jar of pickled cabbage to put on top of these small corn cakes."
- Recommended as Best Value Because: Two can have dinner at the Red Enchilada without drinks for under $20. It doesn't get much cheaper than this.
