We have had an amazing cultural experience here. Food was good, nothing special, but the interior was a real fun.
La Posta de Mesilla Restaurant originated in the northwest corner of the building in 1939 by Katy Griggs Camunez. The business has grown to become one of the most famous restaurants in the Southwest, occupying 10,000 square feet of the La Posta Compound which now included several shops.
After Katy passed away, the property and business was acquired by a great niece, Jerean Camunez Hutchinson and her husband Tom, a.k.a. “Hutch”, who continue to offer the same quality Mexican food and great service in the unique dining environment Katy created. The restaurant offers many fine traditional “New Mexico” Mexican dishes make from century-old recipes handed down over the years from the Fountain, Chavez and Griggs families.
