The Compound was awarded the James Beard Best Outstanding Restaurant Finalist in 2024, the DiRona Award of Excellence Distinguished Restaurants of North America in 2024, the AAA Four Diamond Award in 2024, and the Wine Spectator Award of Excellence for the 4th year in a row in 2024. The New York Times, Gourmet magazine, and The Wall Street Journal selected the Compound as Santa Fe's favorite.
