“There is nothing we don’t love about this restaurant. The food is “real” New Mexican with some excellent special touches by the chef. The ambiance is wonderful, and the decor is authentic. Even the music is well selected and at a volume that enables pleasant conversation during the meal. The staff is helpful, responsive and friendly. A special shout out to Daniel, who is appropriately attentive and professional, always with a smile. Already looking forward to our next visit!”
“This place is a must try for foodies. While my server didn't provide the level of wam hospitality that I'd expect from a restaurant of this caliber, he was quite attentive through my meal. I would be remiss if I did not say that the busboy and busgirl bringing out my plates were superb and much friendlier than the server. Their famous duck fat fries were spot on loved my lamb lollipop, too. The rabbit bolognese lasagna, not so much: I guess I didn't care too much for the texture and taste of it. Negroni cocktail was spot on and Cloud Cake, their Italian meringue cake, has to rank as not only the best dessert I had in Santa Fe, but the best dessert of 2024 period.”
“I had a nice lunch here. All servers are quite attentive and friendly: couldn't ask for better service. Butternut squash soup was pretty delish and I liked their stuffed phyllo app, too. For my combination platter, I chose lamb stew, chickpea stew and chicken curry. Flavoring was spot on but the meats weren't particular too fresh. Also their rose wine was more on the cheaper side of things. Coconut cardamom flan was a nice touch and a fitting way to end my meal.”
“I would give more than five stars if I could! This wonderful restaurant was recommended to us, and it did not disappoint. I had a fine glass of wine and a Caesar salad that was beyond belief. It was a work of art — filled with flavor, a touch more lemony than most, but it was perfection. I had the pork cheeks. First time ever for me, but my family has been suggesting it for a long time. So tender and so flavorful. My dessert was an espresso martini! The server was Edward, and the man responsible for the amazing drink was AJ. Edward was an extraordinary server. He made the whole experience memorable. This restaurant has the best reputation in all of Santa Fe. It could’ve been pretentious, but it was not. It was welcoming and fun. A definite highlight of our time and Santa Fe.”
Restaurants by Cuisine
“Quail... elk... sea bass – Friends Rita, Nathan and I went on a Monday night and were knocked out. Not only was the food hands-down better than anything we had during our visit; I'd say the meal was one of the more memorable in recent memory. Tremendous service and atmosphere. Not to be missed if you're anywhere close.”
“Amazing food, service and music! Venezuelan here living in NM and this is very close to Hispanic taste! We ordered Salvadorian Tostadas and Mojarra Frita as main dishes and nachos as appetizers! Everything was fresh and very good! The chip and salsa they serve is pretty good as well! If you are ever in Santa Fe and feel like eating Hispanic food, this is definitely the place to be!”

“If you are in Santa Fe you absolutely have to visit Tres Colores! We were up there with family and friends for my dad's internment in the national cemetery. There were 13 of us that showed up for lunch without calling ahead. The space is small but they didn't even bat an eye. They quickly slid tables and chairs together and seated us. Service was excellent and the food was some of the best I've ever had. The presentation was beautiful and flavor was phenomenal. I don't think I will ever be satisfied with nachos from anywhere else. It was so well balanced. I am grateful for the hospitality they provided and will always remember this experience.”
“I’m not a big fan of pasta but my husband is, we found this place while walking around downtown and exploring a bit, and we decided to tried. OMG this blow up my mind, mac&cheese here is DELICIOUS, if I wanna eat pasta I’m definitely coming back here, I don’t mind driving 4-5 hrs. Me and my husband ordered a size medium container of mac&cheese and it was super cheap and they give you A LOT. We were super full. Congrats to the owner.”
“I had the chicken fried steak breakfast special. $13.75 for the steak smothered in green, , hash browns, two eggs, and two biscuits with gravy. Half for brunch and half I took home for dinner. What a excellent value, plus it was super tasty and well- prepared. We love this place!”
“The food at La Choza is excellent. There are a ton of vegetarian options, and the green chiles and margaritas are delicious. We went to this restaurant 2 out of 3 days we were in Santa Fe, and if we were staying longer, we would go again. The server our second night was Luis. We had never met such an outstanding server. Luis made sure we had all the information to order something we would enjoy. He noticed that some crema was left off of my chile relleño before I even noticed, and he immediately sent some to the table. He was friendly, and when we mentioned what an excellent job he did, he said it was because he loves people. I hope you get to meet him while you are eating there!”
“such an amazing place. I was born and raised in Germany on the border, what was then Tchechoslovakia and actually have visited the area the owner and some of her staff are from. the food is amazing, great atmosphere and can't wait to see how she Integrates more of her farm items into her lovely cafe! thank you for chatting with us today we look forward to our next visit here in Santa Fe and your place!”
“Food is absolutely delicious!! True to Soul Food. I am visiting from Louisiana for work. I was afraid I wasn't going to find good Soul Food cooking here. Someone in my office recommended this place and they did not disappoint!! I got the catfish and fries. Everything was absolutely delicious! The service was amazing as well! I will definitely be back to try everything on their menu! I am one happy Country Girl!! Thank you!!”

“Service was on slower side of things throughout the meal, but all servers were pretty nice. All of my tapas were pretty delish, and I really liked their Spanish mushroom soup, papatas bravas and and mussels with coconut milk salsa verde: everything was spot on. Their Spanish negroni cocktail was lovely, too. The gateau basque dessert kinda ruined my meal: it seems to have been sitting in the fridge for the day but it was certainly not made fresh and I could hardly taste vanilla bean in it. A lady manager came by and was rather kind to comp it after I declined to try another dessert instead.”
“Each item we enjoyed on the lunch and dinner menu was A-amazing. The attentive and well orchestrated staff was a delightful aspect as well.”
“Why does the host ask me to sit outside when is 72 degrees and raining?1😒🙄🤔 Then the waiter completely ignored me, atleast the manager noticed and tried to make amends so I ordered bone in ribeye welldone, the chef decided to send well charred dried out bitter steak, it took me a while to figure out they are not used to having guests that look like me, I like my steak dinner every time I am on a work trip, I certainly won't be going back to Outback on Cerrillos Rd, Sante Fe NM, I hope the next time a guest that looks like me walk through your doors you will recieve them better than you did me...”

“Getting to AV was especially a vista pleasure yesterday: The mountains all around were wreathed in clouds and rain while puffy clouds in blue sky were overhead. Maybe Frederick Turner at work... The dinner was a pleasure, too: We didn't eat much, focusing on Shareables and Firsts. Two orders of the Spring Vegetable Tempura, which, as I have praised before, Chef prepared with Japanese skill--a light coating around super fresh asparagus, mushrooms, snap peas, torpedo onions, accompanied by meyer lemon aioli and furikake. We followed the tempura with Hamachi Tartare and Hand-Rolled Ricotta Cavatelli to complete the meal. An espresso tied the bow. BTW, I enjoyed a New Orleans cocktail new on the menu: à la Louisiane from the 1930s of the restaurant of the same name. (two of them!). Alia served us so sweetly and smoothly. One more thing: The artwork in the restaurant changed again recently. We sat beneath a piece that depicted 'primitive' art, assembled from cotton, acrylic, wood, metal, and thread. By Karen Hampton.”
“Soothing dining room experience and welcoming staff. Our meal started with Bao Buns which were delicious pillows of fluffiness. My beef short ribs dinner was tender meat. But as the bowl progressed the noodles at the bottom were clumped and quite gummy, almost raw tasting. Stuck to my teeth. Another person at our table agreed. Couldn’t finish it.
My husband had the street grilled pork bowl. Excellently prepared and presented with a broth on the side which the waitress immediately poured over the bowl of noodles, vegetables and grilled pork. Sadly the broth added a strange sour note that made the dish much less enjoyable. Broth should have been left on the side to use at the diners discretion.
We would have rated 5 stars but for those mistakes.”
“We were visiting Santa Fe and saw the ratings on The Flying Tortilla and stopped it for dinner. We shared a Burrito with carne abovada and Christmas chili. In a word Terrific. Our server was great and attentive as well. We are Veteran Hispanic foodies and Winter in The Rio Grande Valley so we have had lots... This was one of the best Burritos we have had period. Los Churros y helado para postre tambien muy Bueno.”
“We had not been to the Pink Adobe in decades. We were greeted by lovely people who showed us their new addition and we enjoyed the nostalgia of the Dragon lounge. The service and food were impeccable. What a delightful time we had with our Granddaughter and her husband sharing a favorite old haunt. Thanks so much”
“Visited last night for my parents anniversary what a wonderful culinary experience party of seven. The waitstaff really fabulous job of explaining all the different foods and sake that were Available. Everyone at our table was very intrigued about the different taste and. flavors of the food. The wait staff was very attentive patient and informative. Everyone enjoyed the experience very much and will be returning for round two thank you again for making my parents anniversary a memorable one.”

“This restaurant offers a familiar and convenient dining experience. The menu provides a wide variety of classic fast food options. Service is generally quick, making it a suitable choice when time is limited. While the food may not be gourmet, it satisfies a craving for something simple. The restaurant maintains a clean and brightly lit environment.”
“Gem restaurant just a short distance from the Santa Fe Plaza. The view from the place and the environment was special. Having come on a snowy day in April, the soups were delicious and warming. The fresh sourdough rolls were good as well.
Local artisans' work is featured on the bar area walls. Tribal clothing examples are also framed on the walls along with native pottery. It was eye candy to me.”

Takeout Restaurants
“We went for lunch today. Atmosphere is great, friendly staff and fun decorations.
Note, they should fix the toilet seat.
We ordered the salami and prosciutto baguette sandwich’s with soup and salad. The soup and salad were great and really enjoyed them. The sandwiches were bland and fine, way too much butter.
The pastries were all good and sweat.”
“We are always recommending this place to our guests so we decided to check it out for ourselves and we were not disappointed. Owner brought a grande margarita that was sooo tasty. We ordered the combo plates. Huge portions and so very tasty. Tina was such a gracious host, Sopapillas were huge and lots of honey. Oh, we will definitely be returning!!”

“Since they first opened a few years ago, this has been my go to lunch spot in downtown Santa Fe. I have not had a bad item yet. Some of my favorites include the Chinese chicken salad, the Buddha bowl, the blackened salmon bowl, the breakfast sandwich, the avocado toast with a fried egg added, their tuna melt sandwich, their excellent coffee, and their amazing and filling smoothies. Many days they even have delivery for the downtown area, which is such a lifesaver when I can’t get away from my desk. They are also great people and their staff seems so happy and well cared for. I don’t know what I would do without Henry and the Fish!”
“Each and every visit, we enjoy something "new" to us - and the passion the chef(s) put into each of their dishes is truly remarkable. Do not miss Cafe Pasqual's. They will accommodate you for breakfast/lunch, and the wait is worth it. They do accept reservations for their dinner service.”
“We had the beet salad and corn chowder as well as the trout (with the most amazing green chili corn bread I've ever had), and chicken and waffles. Everything was great including an excellent suggestion for a wine. My husband had a whiskey flight (Woodford Master's selection ?) and also really enjoyed. Well done, Radish & Rye!”
Drive-Thru Restaurants
“Stopped in during our travels around Santa Fe. The food is bomb! We had the carne asada fries 🤤🤤 and carne asada tostada. The fries were well seasoned and topped with the perfect amount of beans, cheese, meat and extras. The tostada had great flavor and the blue corn shell was crispy until the last bite! The Agua de Jamaica was sooo good! Definitely glad we stopped in for a quick bite!”

“Our first time at the Ranch House was less than an exceptional experience. Our waitress, Peggy Lee was the most professional, courteous and friendly person I have met at a resturante. She made us feel like we were old friends . The food was absolutely the best flavored I have experienced. The prime rib plate was to die for and I wouldnt have known it was being served except our waitress, Peggy recommended it. Very heads up resturante. I wish we had a Ranch House in Wichita Falls Tx.”
“We went in yesterday after a long flight back to Santa Fe. The food was so fabulous we ordered to-go plates for dinner. They have many gluten free options! They were kind and gracious to our fussy toddler. We plan to return regularly! This is a must visit in Santa Fe on par with other local gems like Jambo and Paper Dosa. Bravo Yamas!
Dietary restrictions: Gluten free options!!”
“Great experience at wecks! The food was wonderful, so tasty! Ordered the New Mexico Benedict and a plate of hash browns. The portion sizes were very generous. The server was so kind and welcoming without being overbearing which was so refreshing. Overall a great experience, would recommend to anyone.”
“My dear daughter in California sent me Mother’s Day Brunch from Tribes. A sweetyoung man came thru my front gate with a bag of unexpected goodies! I was so surprised I forgot to give him a tip, but I’ll come by the shop. The cinnamon roll was still warm and it brought tears to my eyes. Thank you so much! Jacqueline Lovell”

“Very nice place. The service was very nice. The food was really good and served hot or cold for cold items and served promptly. The price is a bit high, but you get what you pay for.”

“Lovely little cafe along the road of galleries! Wife and I stopped by for a little break and snack!
Delicious lemonade, delicious latte, —— and a nice tasty chicken salad sandwich + grilled cheese!
6/5 art connoisseurs would recommend this cute little cafe for a pitstop along your art walk!”
“I never leave reviews but felt I had to. This was the best meal ever!!!.. so we ate here two nights in a row!!!. The atmosphere is casual, so take it to go and create a beautiful place in your hotel room or home with a bottle of wine and a candle. The Carne Asada cannot be beat!!! With the Pico de Gallo and lime on top , it is amazing!! The homemade tortillas are incredible and my husband had the shrimp one night and chicken the other. Both were fabulous!! The staff are friendly and humble and this is the most authentic delicious meal you will ever get for the price!! If they were local for me, I would get the Carne Asada every Friday night for life!! Thank you for a great meal and memory!! ❤️”
“Always good burgers here. I've traveled around the country looking for the best burger and I can honestly say that Realburger is on my top 10 list. They used to have a condiment bar that went down right after covid. I wished they'd bring that back but I understand. For the price, you can't beat the quality, portion size, and variety.”
“I am a HUGE fan. Try the chile cheese fries. They're amazing. I prefer the green chile option. The fresh fruit smoothies are delicious and refreshing. The pricing, customer service, and atmosphere are excellent. Every time I'm in Santa Fe, I make a point to stop at Andale'.”
“I love love living by Posas. I've had just about everything on the menu and not one disappointment. Recently I ordered off their catering menu for a lil baby shower I was having, and everything was a hit, they loved the food. Even in bulk this place rocks. Can't go wrong here I've even gotten some of the frozen items they have and just as good as fresh stuff. I will forever be a fan n frequent customer. B”
“Can’t say enough about this local cafe. We are from Colorado and this cafe just so happened to be right next door to our Airbnb. They have a regular menu and a board with specials-so many fantastic options. The food was delicious and came out quickly, the ingredients were fresh, and the service was outstanding. In the 30 minutes we were outside eating we were checked on 4 times and the servers were constantly offering to refill our coffee. Such a great local place, we would for sure come back!”
“Excellent food and service, I had the banana bread french toast that was so flavorful no syrup needed. My husband had the burrito and loved it. The coffee was sourced from Kenya and was constantly refilled needless to say the service was suburb. Highly recommend”
“Lovely evening: delish cocktails, tasty appetizers, terrific dinner & dessert. Wonderful service -- attentive & friendly.”
“We've been coming here for years on our anniversaries especially. We just went for our 24yr anniversary and a waiter saw us and remembered us from a few years ago. Such great and kind staff.”
“Lovely modern Italian restaurant in Santa Fe. Food and wine are excellent. Everyone at our table thoroughly enjoyed their meal.”
“Possibly the best service I’ve had ever in a restaurant amazing food great for breakfast”
“Best Japanese in Santa Fe , no question about me. I am from Asia and I lived in Shanghai where many top Japanese restaurants reside; Su is the best in NM for sure.”
“We had the Continental Wine Flight, the Mistress, and the Brew'd Awakening. All were good but the Slow Roasted Duck stole the show and was absolutely delicious. Pommes Frites were crispy and delicious.”
“ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL!!! Chef Andrew, Chef Ruben and the entire kitchen staff are culinary geniuses!!! The waitstaff and bartenders are also amazing, second to none!!!”
“El Farol is my absolute favorite place to dine and visit in Santa Fe! The food and the drinks are perfection! Love this place! Must must visit! ♥️”
“Excellent food and comfortable atmosphere particularly if Chef Owner is in the house. 😋”
“The Omakase is great. Amazing saké selection. The staff is wonderful - very knowledgeable with good recommendations.”
“My fiancée and I stopped by the farmers and the cafe on the way out. We both got Mexican hot chocolates, and OMG!!! The absolute best Ive ever had. Service was amazing.”
“We love the tacos and we adore the staff! Every time, the service is friendly, prompt and exceptional. Love this place!”
“Drove all the way up from Albuquerque. Amazing food. The duck is to die for. Desserts blew our minds. Coconut ice cream and kiwi sorbet are on another level. Wine bottle prices are very reasonable. I was in St Helena last week. This place goes head to head with those restaurants. Props to Chef Jose. The man is a genius”
“Excelente servicio y fabulosa comida, una delicia de restaurante.”
“First time here. Service was not bad, and the food was good. The atmosphere is upscale and calm like an upscale location should be.
They have remodeled, so the pictures are not correct. It is white inside now. Piano music playing.”
“Very beautiful theme, great big drinks and the queso fundido is delicious.”
“just enjoyed the lunch buffet here, it was excellent and a great value for the quality of food.”
“Small place, food was excellent and service was friendly and helpful. The ravioli appetizer (would be better if the portion was larger) was really good with a sauce you will want bread to soak it up. The chile sauces are very good. The Chef came to the table talk with us. It's a little pricey, but comparable to other fine dining in Santa Fe. Maybe slightly less”
“aww man, so happy to have been turned on to this place!! their homemade meatballs and prepared marinara are absolutely LEGIT! have also had their homemade bolognese sauce and it is equally as wonderful. stop by this hidden gem (park in the back) and pick up some pasta, sauce, and meatballs, and be prepared to dive into some true italian food heaven! thank you santa fe!!!”
“We had an early birthday dinner and the restaurant was lovely. All the food was very flavorful and we really enjoyed everything we ordered but especially the cocktails! The staff was excellent ?! And they gave me a free desert with a candle for my birthday.”
“Very bad service!…Rude lady, no salsa with our orders and she was charging $12 extra…when my husband asked how much each order was (we bought 3 orders) her excuse was “oh didn’t you order “drinks” too?”…No we did not order drinks but she did not have the “drinks” there either way. So if my husband wouldn’t of asked for the prices individually she would of kept $12 more. I do NOT recommend this place!!! Muy mal servicio!…Señora nada amable, nos dio las órdenes sin salsa y todavía estaba cobrando $12 de más, cuando mi esposo pregunto cuánto costaba cada orden ( ordenamos 3 ordenes) salió con la excusa de “oh que no ordenó sodas?” No, no ordenamos sodas, pero tampoco las tenía listas ni dijo “y de que “sodas” va a llevar?…si mi esposo no le cuestiona los precios, se ubiera quedado con $12 de más. No recomiendo este lugar!!…Se apoya lo local y con lo que salen!!!”
“Last Saturday night we celebrated my husband's 80th birthday. I called and spoke with Ricardo Gutierrez about our wish to make this a memorable event. He could not have been more helpful and pleasant to deal with, sending me sample menus and tolerating my changes and many questions. He and the staff went out of their way to make the dinner party a success - providing several shiny balloons proclaiming happy 80th birthday and even making 2 birthday cakes, which were very good by the way, one to eat there and one to take home. The price fix menu provided great selections and the food was very good and reasonably priced. A good time was had by all.”
“2d time dining and never disappointed. All 3 of our differently cooked Wagyu steaks came out perfect both times! Definitely a must for anyone visiting Santa Fe, NM.”
“Had a family reunion in Santa Fe and we went here. The atmosphere was great. Service was awesome. Food was great, all the meals were very tasty and mild heat was mild and hot spice was not overly hot. Just a good amount of heat. Definitely would recommend and we will go again if we come back to Santa Fe.”
“Great meal- Friendly and Interactive Wait staff. Fresh salad, hand cut french fries, juicy and delicious burgers and a wonderful menu of available drinks! GF options ( including fresh hamburger buns) and the dog friendly patio were key! If you are near Santa Fe this is a MUST TRY! ( Oh and the prices were incredible)!!!”
“Everything was made with quality ingredients. Our side salad looked beautiful and tasted even better. Our pasta and sauce all tasted home-made. Mine was cooked al dente. Zero complaints here.”
“Have been here off and on since the 1980s … one of my all time favorites….”
“By far, my favorite restaurant in Santa Fe...for years I have been going there for lunch during work days & après-ski dinner...consistent quality, fresh ingredients & great cooks...because they do not pretend to be anything they are not, they blow all wanna-bes out of the water...”
“Awesome 👏🏼 😎 Timing, food was on point, customer service, and very professional- thanks for hosting”
“el mejor sabor y textura que hay aqui en Albuquerque ,buen servicio calidad precio todo 100% genial se los recomiendo”
“Probably the best sushi place in northern NM. Service has historically been uneven (better than a lot of places in NM still), but it seems to be getting much better. Sushi is consistently excellent and the fried rice is amazing.”
“Guys and Gals!!!!!...thank youcso much for our favorites!!! Best ever Thin Supreme!!! Best we ever had!!! Momma does the setting with meat sauce. Thank you!!! We're here to serve you and we want to keep your business OPEN!!!”
“Don’t let the strip mall location fool you, they have fantastic food and very good service. Their poke and sushi are great and their breakfast burritos are pretty good too.”
“Friendly bartender serving great local craft beer. The vibe is very low key on a weekday and you can order food from the pizza next door and take it here. Try the hazy IPA selection.”
“Really nice place attached to the Hotel Chimayo. Service was quick and friendly, the pizza was very very good, and we had a good time taking it easy. Was a bit overrun with a wedding party ordering a pile of crazy drinks, but Efren kept up with the crowd very well. During busy times it could be good to bring on another bartender, but we have no complaints and will be back next time we are in SF NM.”
“Had a wonderful leisurely late lunch of the lamb shank…it was absolutely delicious. Met Michael Linder, the owner, who was so incredibly friendly. A New Yorker transplanted to New Mexico.
A must visit for anyone who visits Santa Fe!”
“The fourth star was due to not having their arugula salad! We farm, the pizza was excellent, great crust, had a bottle beer cause dos Equis was out on the tap? Thank you for the hard work and nicely cooked pizza!”
“excellent experience. I highly recommend this restaurant. food and service is excellent!!!”
“fantastic high quality Mexican cuisine. cocktails and service are equally impressive. 😊”
“Hooked my 82 yr old mom up with Brit for Reflexology & O2 while my sisters and I cruised downtown Santa Fe. Win-win! Mom’s feeling great & we got some extra steps in. Life is good ���”
“Actually enjoy going to Boxcar now that it has private party dining room, large dining area that's not ovee crowded, patio area, and an entertainment room. All are welcome and like that they are not woke as to leave out Conservative or make us feel awkward to "new society ". Actually enjoy karaoke now there that negitive people who don't want to be "so called bothered by us having fun and singing" are in another area completely. Everyone even if just watching some really good singers like Bricey, gets into it mood with dancing, singing along, cheering for the brave singers. Shanny Soul gives a great vibe Wednesday nights always being fair in rotation allowing those who haven't sang get a chance to plus only sings when its a small crowd, did overhear 2 ladies if that's what you call them complaining about not having a second tern in over an hour but there were just so many singers to have first turn and were being rude to KJ, staff and other patrons. Dorian cool but you can tell when he's drinking or drunk. He shouldn't bump people down list when there name is already showing in next 2. He tends to put people for second before others who haven't gotten chance. He also sings too much when long list. Crash is great but does do as Dorian with rotation and singing but is super friendly and does not drink. There's also a lady singer who seem to work with them or goes KJ for Shanny breaks. Seen her Sunday too, is super helpful with App and supper friendly adding to welcoming us environment. Food more expensive no but still great and expected for downtown. Loving wait staff and secutiy.. not recommended for young child”
“A cool little dessert place near Canyon Road in Santa Fe. We shared the Chocolate Flight which was unusual and really great - plus their ice cream was amazing. Nice staff, cute place, do not miss!”
“Not being gamblers, we don’t normally dine at local Santa Fe casinos. But after hearing an ad on the local jazz station for Cottonwood Kitchen’s Wednesday night 6-9p special, we decided to give it a try. Sarah loves prime rib, which is $19 on Wednesday night, first come-first serve, no reservations, and when it’s gone it’s gone. We eat at 8p but we arrived around 7:15 to be assured some beef and we were not disappointed. We started with a tasty “Northern New Mexico” Caesar-ish salad (sorry, I’m a Caesar salad purist, but it WAS tasty). The prime rib was perfectly prepared and the mashed potatoes stayed warm throughout the meal, which never happens. The service was excellent. Two other BIG reasons to go on a Wednesday night are half-priced wine by the glass and live jazz. If you like sports, there is a wall of TVs in the bar. We sat at a table in the spacious dining room but would have also been very happy at the 360 degree bar looking out into the casino and its colorful slots. We will be back.”
“We are here at Vinaigrette in Albuquerque, NM. Fantastic place to eat!!! Our first time. We are from Sacramento, CA. We had the duck tacos, gumbo soup and the duck arugula with creamy goat cheese…super tasty!!! Love the decor, it was bright, relaxing and cheery at the same time. Our waiter, Christopher, was super!!! He was cheerful, polite, very interesting person to talk to, had some wonderful info about Old Town, and overall good guy!!! Thank you Christopher for making our dining experience lovely!!! Highly recommend this restaurant!!! Beth & Emre”
“One of our favorite places in Santa Fe. Had wonderful salmon on polenta the other night, but everything has been good. Favorites include the cioppino, the crispy chicken thighs, and the linguine with clams. And we always start with the fritto misto. We will miss this place when we move.”
“We had dinner tonight and had the worst service at Charlie's section. He was attentive to all the surrounding tables where patrons were drinking alcohol. He never came to our table with refills, no garlic bread. Out order was mixed up. Carolyn the manager was kind enough to give is a discount. if you visit this location please ask to sit at another servers section. very disappointed with Charlie. terrible service!”
“Looks like Marias is Back! Great margs....and great NEW MEXICAN food.. That's what I grew up with....in Santa Fe....”
“Everything is delicious and fresh! I love all of the special rolls! Sam is the best!”
“Fantastic service. There were nine of us and we called ahead to prepare them all of our food was fantastic, I had the lechon quesadilla and I'll be thinking about it for years to come. Definitely worth the visit!”
“We had a group of about a dozen and enjoyed excellent service and selection with many getting different dishes. Everyone enjoyed it all, including dessert. Staff was attentive and helped with wine selection. It was a great experience and one I certainly recommend.”
“Delicious Mexican food in nice surroundings. Friendly service.”
“Amazing stall and to Top it off gear beer! A must stop when in Santa Fe!”
“Excellent service and food in a lovely setting. Superb wine list too!”
“We met bartender Will at another bar in Santa Fe, or we'd never have known that Tonic exists. The drinks were excellent ( not inexpensive, but damned tasty). Will is a great barkeep and host. Funny thing is, a guy we met at Tonic, we just ran into at the same bar where we met Will....”
“An upscale, rustic decor with a relaxed, unfussy vibe, Anasazi has a new executive chef, Christian Pontiggia, at the helm.
The three of us shared an inventive Pear Carpaccio-Asian pears, pistachios, cheese, balsamic reduction and mysterious “beads of deliciousness,” which turned out to be encapsulated mango. The delightful Chef appeared at our table when we inquired about the beads and gave us each a condiment cup full of them to take home. They are addicting; such a great little flavor bomb. My friend ate three for dessert. They reminded me of the sensory sensations I experienced when I lunched at L’ Ambroisie in the Place Des Vosges in Paris.
We also shared two entrees: lamb loin and branzino. The best lamb that I have eaten in decades. Cooked to a real medium rare with a superb risotto, asparagus, and rich glaze, it is a substantial dish for one. The branzino was light, but meaty, with an unexpected, but welcome crisp to it, which was repeated in the accompanying crispy shallots, a top a flavorful, but delicate sauce.”
“Thank you so much for a wonderful Christmas Eve dinner! Your food and service were both excellent!! We were so pleased. We’ll be back!!”
“Alex is the best! He remembered my order from 3 months ago. The bacon bleu burger with onion cloud and sweet potato fries was delicious! Enjoyed an early NYE at happy hour...Y'all are awesome!”
“Food is great and the service on the phone for placing take out orders are the BEST”
“Crackin Crab has the BEST SEAFOOD in town!! I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for an amazing meal and service! You WILL leave here FULL AND HAPPY!!!!”
“I enjoyed my experience visiting the bar area for a light meal and coffee during a weekday afternoon.
The bar staff, server and the manager were friendly and engaging. I felt very welcomed.
The prices were reasonable considering it is the upscale restaurant at the casino facility with other options for sit down food and gift shop food.
The Charcuterie board had a decent quantity of meats.
The Lemon Blueberry Cheesecake was delicious and creamy.
The coffee was nice. It would have been more impressive if the coffee cream was served in a small creamer carafe rather than the individual tare open half-n-half cups.
The restaurant is nicely decorated and overlooks the outdoor patio and pool deck.
I will return to this restaurant.”
“My wife and I stayed here for two nights and had dinner and breakfast at the Blue Heron. It's a small, cute dining room with pretty views of the property, including the lake. If you're lucky and get a window table the view is especially pretty. There were also outdoor tables and we saw quite a few people enjoying breakfast out there, but we only ate inside.
We had the same server for dinner and breakfast and she was really nice. We came on weekdays so it was very quiet. Our server said that it can get quite busy on the weekends but we never experienced that.
For the dinner, I had the pork shank, AKA osso buco. It had a honey red chili sauce, plus candied yams and kale. The meat was cooked really well and very tender, and quite delicious inside. The sauce was okay, but it was a little too sweet for my liking. I would have rather it had more savory and red chili flavor, but it wasn't awful. The meat was really quite good. The candy yams were tasty but the portion was huge and there's no way I could ever finish it. It did make me a bit nostalgic for Thanksgiving, I hadn't had that in a while. The kale was lightly cooked and fairly fresh tasting but didn't have any other flavor. It should have used salt.
For breakfast I got huevos rancheros and this was actually a very nice plate. Here I got to taste the red chili on its own and it was excellent, some of the better red chili I've had. Well spiced and not bitter. The hash browns were again nicely cooked but very plain and I needed to add some salt.
That is a general theme, things tasted a bit undersalted and I wonder if that's because this is somewhat of a healthful place, ie the spa and mineral springs. At dinner, I resisted adding salt but wish I had. For breakfast I added salt to the hash browns and a little to the eggs and it fixed everything up. The rest of the flavored were great.
Overall, it's pretty pricey but you should be and to guess that going in. everyone is really nice and the dining room feels very nice to sit in. I be wish the food was better salted, but overall it's solid.”

“Actually enjoy going to Boxcar now that it has private party dining room, large dining area that's not ovee crowded, patio area, and an entertainment room. All are welcome and like that they are not woke as to leave out Conservative or make us feel awkward to "new society ". Actually enjoy karaoke now there that negitive people who don't want to be "so called bothered by us having fun and singing" are in another area completely. Everyone even if just watching some really good singers like Bricey, gets into it mood with dancing, singing along, cheering for the brave singers. Shanny Soul gives a great vibe Wednesday nights always being fair in rotation allowing those who haven't sang get a chance to plus only sings when its a small crowd, did overhear 2 ladies if that's what you call them complaining about not having a second tern in over an hour but there were just so many singers to have first turn and were being rude to KJ, staff and other patrons. Dorian cool but you can tell when he's drinking or drunk. He shouldn't bump people down list when there name is already showing in next 2. He tends to put people for second before others who haven't gotten chance. He also sings too much when long list. Crash is great but does do as Dorian with rotation and singing but is super friendly and does not drink. There's also a lady singer who seem to work with them or goes KJ for Shanny breaks.

“We had not been to the Pink Adobe in decades. We were greeted by lovely people who showed us their new addition and we enjoyed the nostalgia of the Dragon lounge. The service and food were impeccable. What a delightful time we had with our Granddaughter and her husband sharing a favorite old haunt. Thanks so much”
“I ate there for the first time last week everything about the restaurant was such great experience, the food was amazing. The staff was very friendly. I would definitely be going back. We bought a big bag of chips they had for sale I highly recommend... Very crunchy and Delicious.”
“Our first time at the Ranch House was less than an exceptional experience. Our waitress, Peggy Lee was the most professional, courteous and friendly person I have met at a resturante. She made us feel like we were old friends . The food was absolutely the best flavored I have experienced. The prime rib plate was to die for and I wouldnt have known it was being served except our waitress, Peggy recommended it. Very heads up resturante. I wish we had a Ranch House in Wichita Falls Tx.”

“I am a HUGE fan. Try the chile cheese fries. They're amazing. I prefer the green chile option. The fresh fruit smoothies are delicious and refreshing. The pricing, customer service, and atmosphere are excellent. Every time I'm in Santa Fe, I make a point to stop at Andale'.”
“Friendly and knowledgeable staff so a great job assisting with the many options the store provides. They appear to enjoy providing healthy options to our community and really go the distance to provide items from the menus you will taste good to you as well as meet your current physical needs. Highly recommended.”

“The food at La Choza is excellent. There are a ton of vegetarian options, and the green chiles and margaritas are delicious. We went to this restaurant 2 out of 3 days we were in Santa Fe, and if we were staying longer, we would go again. The server our second night was Luis. We had never met such an outstanding server. Luis made sure we had all the information to order something we would enjoy. He noticed that some crema was left off of my chile relleño before I even noticed, and he immediately sent some to the table. He was friendly, and when we mentioned what an excellent job he did, he said it was because he loves people. I hope you get to meet him while you are eating there!”

“Giddy up, cowboys and cowgirls! It’s time for some bucking good food!
Caleb had to work this day so Cassey took me downtown to show me some of the city that her and Caleb love. First thing was to find a place to eat and after throwing out a few different places, we landed on Cowgirl BBQ.
We rolled up after the lunch rush and quickly got seated. I almost got a buffalo burger at The Ranch House but didn’t feel like trying to customize it so I knew Cowgirl was the place to properly get one. I ordered a Santa Fe Brewing Social Hour beer and quickly fell in love with it. That ended up being my go-to beer during my stay in Santa Fe.
While sipping our beers and waiting for our food and with some liquid courage, I asked our waiter if they sold shirts and the manager came over and escorted me from my table back outside, to a side portion that seemed like private seating to a locked door with tubs and tubs of shirts inside. I got a Large since she said the shirts will shrink after a wash or two.
Back at my table, I was buzzing from the beer and getting a shirt from my travels. It’s been a recent thing of mine to get a shirt from places to help support them and to rep them while I am out and about during my non-traveling. Anyway, I was buzzing when our food was brought out. I don’t remember what Cassey got because I was enamored with the buffalo burger in front of me. Cooked to a medium rare, each bite was heavenly. Apparently buffalo is a big menu item in the southwest and reflecting back… I kinda wish I lived down there. It’s not much different tasting than a beef burger, to be honest, but it tasted hella good cooked to medium rare. It was nice and juicy and full of flavor. The fries were pretty decent but nothing to rave over. It also came with coleslaw and I got the green chile on the side since I wasn’t sure if I’d like it on my burger. Turns out, I forgot to put it on there but I did sample it and it was really good. As for the coleslaw, I don’t care for coleslaw personally but I did sample it and it was also decent.
It was around Cowgirl BBQ that I started to get the hint that I was in for a week of some of the most delicious food I ever had. Boy, how little I knew how true that would become.
If you find yourself in Santa Fe, do yourself a favor and wrangle up your friends/family and haul them in for a taste of how delicious the southwest is.
Giddy up, readers!”
“We were visiting Santa Fe and saw the ratings on The Flying Tortilla and stopped it for dinner. We shared a Burrito with carne abovada and Christmas chili. In a word Terrific. Our server was great and attentive as well. We are Veteran Hispanic foodies and Winter in The Rio Grande Valley so we have had lots... This was one of the best Burritos we have had period. Los Churros y helado para postre tambien muy Bueno.”
“If you are in Santa Fe you absolutely have to visit Tres Colores! We were up there with family and friends for my dad's internment in the national cemetery. There were 13 of us that showed up for lunch without calling ahead. The space is small but they didn't even bat an eye. They quickly slid tables and chairs together and seated us. Service was excellent and the food was some of the best I've ever had. The presentation was beautiful and flavor was phenomenal. I don't think I will ever be satisfied with nachos from anywhere else. It was so well balanced. I am grateful for the hospitality they provided and will always remember this experience.”
“Excellent food and atmosphere”
