Fodor's Expert Review Metate Room Restaurant

$$$ Far View American

The park's rugged terrain contrasts with this relaxing space just off the lobby of the Far View Lodge. The well-regarded dining room is upscale, but the atmosphere remains casual. A wall of windows affords wonderful Mesa Verde vistas. The menu varies from cedar-brined pork chop to Korean barbecue New York strip steak, which you can enjoy with an array of local wines (try Cortez's own Guy Drew).
