“This was our first visit to Santa Fe and the Coyote Cafe was a stand out for us. So much so that we dined twice at this establishment. The food was excellent. We tried the elk, mussels posole, and the Elote ravioli. The service was outstanding on both visits. We would highly recommend the Coyote Cafe to anyone looking for a fine dining experience.”

“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!”

“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!”

“I recently planned a private dinner for 25 executives at Restaurant Martin, and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The private room beautifully blends indoor and outdoor elements, featuring garage doors that open to create a lovely, airy atmosphere. The lighting adds a sophisticated touch, setting the perfect mood for our gathering.
The food was nothing short of delightful. Each dish showcased sophisticated flavors and expert presentation, making it a culinary highlight for all our guests. The menu offered a range of delicious options that pleased even the most discerning palates.
What truly set the evening apart was the knowledgeable service. The owners and staff were attentive and well-informed, guiding us through the menu and ensuring that every detail was perfect.
If you're looking for an upscale dining experience in a stunning setting, Restaurant Martin is the place to go. Highly recommend!”

“Friendly and delicious Family owned business. The constant line of customers waiting for a table or picking up orders from the window at the parking are an accurate indicator of the quality of their food. Everything our group tasted was fresh and delicious. Ample wine pairing. Attentive and friendly service. Strongly recommend.”

“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.”

“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.”

“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!”

Cafe • $
“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!”

“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!”

“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.”

“My friend and I had birthday lunch today at Izanami... We are long time residents of Santa Fe and already love this restaurant for its style and reliable commitment to excellence.... We had to let you know that today we had THE BEST celebratory meal ever! My friend says it was "better than sex" and we will be back again soon...
The food was fresh, delicious and superbly prepared... and the service was personal and impeccable. We particularly want to mention Neo, who was attentive, friendly and knowledgeable.
Izanami served an exquisite yuzu birthday treat that neither of us had ever had before ... and Neo's sweetness and sense of humor made this an even more wonderful day! We are so grateful that we have this amazing place in Santa Fe and that it still reigns as one of the best, year after year. Can't wait to return!!”

“Found Baked and Brew through their Instagram account and couldn't wait to stop in for pastries and a drink. I ended up with the seasonal Ghost Latte at the recommendation of the employee running the register, and I'm so glad I did. It was one of the best iced lattes I've had in a long time! Drawing the ghosts onto the cup was a cute touch, but I couldn't get over how well-balanced the drink was. It was the perfect ratio of marshmallow sweetness to espresso. I also enjoyed their Pain Au Chocolat and Lemon Cream Cheese Danish. Can't wait to go back!”

“Some of the very best tacos I’ve ever had. I’ve been here three times and the food and service is excellent. Very friendly staff and great prices. You can get two full meals out of 1 breakfast burrito here, they are giant. The tacos are a must try, very authentic and delicious.”

Sandwich Shop • $
“The subs are legendary - but the absolute best part of going to Firehouse Subs is the hot-sauce selection. It makes going there just fun and of course, I have my favorites. Alas, the sandwiches are still great, but increasingly, the best hot sauces (Bee Sting) are always out. The last six times I've been they have been completely out of all the best ones. It's heart-breaking, really. Takes half the fun out of going :(”

“The food at El Parasol is renowned the service is always stellar I’ve been eating here since before it was El Parasol and it was El Paragua and I’ve gone to the locations in Española, Pojojuaque and Santa Fe and the food is always wonderful. I live in Albuquerque and I drive all the way to the Dinosaur trail location when I am really craving the food. I have to say El Parasol if you opened one in Albuquerque it would be so popular and customers would flock in masses”

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!!

La Plazula is the perfect place to celebrate your life in America's most exotic city. These people who love art and beauty all around them, in turn, style themselves in the unique environment that they live in. You can even feel the art-loving vibe they make.
I am charmed along with them.

“Cool tapas restaurant on Canyon Rd in the heart of Santa Fe.
Easy to make reservations via Resy. We had a table in the main dining room.
The food was very good. Had the cauliflower, the serrano ham, the polenta and the El Farol Paella. The serrano ham was the highlight of the meal, it was excellent. Fresh and full of flavor. The Paella was also excellent - it was smaller than expected but that was totally fine for us as we were only two.
The service was good also, polite and friendly. My biggest criticism was the speed of service. Traditional Spanish restaurants would space out your tapas and give you time to savor and enjoy each dish. Here they brought all of our tapas at the same time and then brought the Paella while we were really just starting the tapas. We were done in less than an hour which is very strange.
All in all I would go again, but definitely ask for the plates to be spaced out.
Also they had a good wine list. Some excellent Riojas.”

Spotless tableware and glasses ~ everything was beautifully maintained. Wonderful waiter and tasteful guitar music. We ate great crab cakes, beet and burrata salad ~ delicious stuffed squash blossoms and the poblano chilies with duck confit. We left feeling very satisfied, and wish this new enterprise much success. Thumbs up!”

“Stopped in to kill some time before a movie to try their Santa Fe Margarita Trail offering, The Jalapeno Margarita. Normally, I don't care for the chile infused spirits, but the Tanteo jalapeno infused tequila used in this one is really well done. Smooth and tasty with a nice spicy finish from the slice of jalapeno when you're done. Service was friendly in this quiet, intimate setting inside Hotel Santa Fe.
Parking: Parking located right outside of the hotel.”

“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”

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.”

The soft craft was better, the Seattle was fell apart as soon as one touches it. The rice was super overcooked and smushy. Udon noodles soup was pretty ok.”

“Stopped in for a quick bite. New remodel is nice. Yummy dinner..Red on red roll was excellent, Shrimp tempura (with the best tempura onion ring ever tasted) and sunomono salad. Service was friendly and efficient!! I will be back!!”
Tacos • $$
“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!!!”

“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.”

“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!”

“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.”
Mexican • $$
“I tried the tofu vegan tacos and was left a bit disappointed. They didn’t come with guac or beans, but that might be because I ordered two tacos. Happy with the vegan options and will definitely try their other options! They were super quick and efficient; food was ready in 10 minutes.”
Brewery • $$
“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.”
Mexican • $$
“Who would have thought that a small, very unassuming and out of the way Mexican restaurant would be thriving? This small gem is simple in decor, yet feels homey. Food is delicious and service equally good. It is one of those hidden places that surprise you even after many years of living here in Santa Fe. It was packed with people when we arrived, but we did not have to wait for a table. I took the pictures after the crowds were gone. Check it out.”
Salad • $$
“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.”

“The service was excellent, the ambiance beautifully bohemian-boutique, and the food was delightfully healthy in all of the right ways (in other words, righteous). I have been a trained and certified professional chef in industry and the experience at Apothecary was epic. The owner, Kadimah, was very professional and friendly. Kadimah, along with her staff, made us feel right at home with a hot and lovingly cooked meal. I highly recommend the Apothecary experience!!”

“Julia, the restaurant inside La Posada Hotel in Santa Fe, NM, offers a warm dining experience with standout service. Fatima and Rosa, who work on the patio, deliver exceptional attention and hospitality, making the meal enjoyable. The margaritas are notably excellent, a highlight of the menu, while the food itself is decent, meeting expectations but not particularly remarkable. Overall, it’s a pleasant spot for drinks and great service with a scenic atmosphere.”

“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”

“We did the bespoke private dinner with wine pairings and it was great. We ate in what they called the living room and had private service and a roaring fire to eat by. The restaurant manager checked on us multiple times and the server was attentive. The food was very good, not excellent. The menu was customized for allergies and preferences which was great. The food was local flavors and just what we wanted. Wine pairings went really well with each course. The price was reasonable for the dinner and I definitely recommend it!”

“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!”

“Man I had never tried kombucha until I tried their black cherry flavored variety. After the first taste I loved it and return weekly to purchase a bottle to go. I give it an A + for service and product but at $9 a bottle a bit too pricey on SSD income. Still worth it when that cherry flavor comes thru”

“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!”

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.
