Restaurant Description
Double Eagle Restaurant's name was derived from a United States gold piece minted in the 1850's. The Ten Dollar coin was known as the "Eagle" and the Twenty Dollar coin as the "Double Eagle." The antiques found throughout the building have been painstakingly collected over several years. The post-Civil War cast-iron entry gates each weigh 1,000 pounds. The back lights in the Imperial Bar are French "Corones" with Lalique shades dating from the 1890's. Highlighting the decor of the Maximilian Room are the classic French baccarat chandeliers measuring seven feet by three feet, each containing more than 1,000 hand-cut glass crystals. The solid gold ceiling was hand-gilded with 18- and 24-karat gold leaf. The 20 gold leafed French mirrors are ornately carved in Greek Revival style. The only dedicated beef ageing room in New Mexico provides aged steaks we cook to your preference on a specially built 1500 degree grill. Winner of the 2007-2008 Wine Spectator Award of Excellence for the Wine List. Winner 2007-2008 Grand Champion Margarita for the Southwest Margarita Festival. Margarita Menu includes a award winning recipes and a special Turquoise Margarita with a real Turquoise stone used as the garnish! In addition, a romantic legend is part of the history of this 156-year-old adobe home. This legend tells of the tragic deaths of two young lovers with their eternal ties to each other and The Double Eagle. We believe that the friendly spirits of Armando and Inez walk with us to this day...ask about the ghost stories! Recent changes in New Mexico laws allow a customer to take home a partially consumed bottle of wine when purchased with a meal. Ask your server for details.
