Prairie Star Restaurant and Wine Bar at Santa Ana Golf Club has offered an unforgettable dining experience since 1986. Housed in a renovated 100 year-old adobe ranch house, the warmth and intimacy of Prairie Star is intoxicating. You may absorb the NM Territorial atmosphere of handmade adobe walls, kiva fireplaces and full viga and latilla ceilings while enjoying awe-inspiring and sweeping views of the golf course and the Sandia Mountains.

Our culinary team masterfully creates stunning Contemporary New American cuisine with global influences and Executive Chef Myles Lucero changes our menu seasonally to reflect the time and freshest ingredients at hand. Each dish is carefully crafted from the finest ingredients, locally sourced when possible, and organic, sustainable and fair trade items preferred.

Prairie Star serves prix fixe menus on major holidays, and you can find details at prairiestarrestaurant.com. We are closed Christmas Day and New Years Day.

My wife cherished every moment of her birthday dinner, enjoying the delicious array of dishes around her. The highlight of the evening was the warm apple pie, bursting with flavor and topped with a scoop of creamy ice cream—just the way she loves it! The celebration was filled with laughter and joy, creating memories that will last a lifetime.

As usual, Chef Myles lived up to our expectations. We brought friends with us to dinner and they were effusive in their comments on the food and ambiance. So much so that they want to come back next week, menu dependent. That is certainly alright with me!

We love that you shared Prairie Star with friends! I'm grateful to know our staff extended a great experience, and hope you all visit again soon! Thank you for the great recommendation.
