"If you’re planning a weekend in Los Alamos or anywhere close to Los Alamos, there’s a high probability this cute little French bistro is on your must-eat list. And we don’t blame you—Bell’s monthly reservation drops sell out within days. So set an alarm and make it happen, because this place exceeds expectations. They offer a three-course tasting menu for $110, which includes a choice of appetizer, entree, and dessert, plus an uni and caviar starter, bread and salad for the table, and a glass of champagne when you sit down (it’s a good deal). Coupled with a dining room that looks like a Provence farmhouse straight out of a 90s rom-com, it’s no wonder half the weekenders eating here are simultaneously scrolling Zillow for nearby open houses.
