  1. Frontier

    American

    Eat 74

    Across from UNM and open from 5 a.m. to midnight, this sprawling New Mexican diner has been feeding students and everyone else for what feels like several generations. The house-made tortillas are the reason to go, wrapped around breakfast burritos stuffed with hash browns, eggs, and carne adovada or green chile stew. The cinnamon rolls, heated to order and frosted generously, have their own devoted following. A Michelin Bib Gourmand, and the coffee is bottomless.

    One honor, in evidence:

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. Most of it is the record: the scored places within reach, weighed by distance, so more good stuff nearby means a higher score. The rest is how life is in that country: how people there rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are, and what they breathe. If it looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
