This is my favorite restaurant in Santa Fe! The atmosphere is lovely, the food and drink offerings are sublime and Jonathan is, by far, the best waiter I have ever encountered.

We really enjoyed our dinner at Arroyo Vino. Service was fast and friendly. We shared crispy calamari to start . The Winter Green Salad was a hit. Mahi-Mahi was nicely presented and accompanied by tasty roasted cauliflower and a beurre blanc sauce. The Heritage pork chop would have been better less cooked, but there's probably a rule against that. Desert was a generous portion of shared chocolate cake with a creamy ginache. We didn't explore the lengthy wine list (the restaurant is connected to a wine shop), but wine enthusiasts will find lots to try in the reasonably priced list.

The food was amazing, and our server Jonathan was outstanding! We will be back soon and highly recommend Arroyo Vino!

Arroyo Vino is one of our most favorite restaurants. 5 minutes from our house and always top quality food and wine. This was our third week in a row. Jonathan is also our favorite server, he is top notch and a white glove server. Been coming here for years and it never disappoints.

This was our first visit to Arroyo Vino as we are new to the area. What a wonderful experience! Menu is not extensive but there is a good selection of entrees to satisfy most folks. From aperitifs to dessert, everything was delicious. We had chicken liver pate to start followed by crispy duck confit cassoulet. I've not had better. Homemade sorbet to finished as we were too full to try some of the other desserts. Highly recommend Arroyo Vino for a great dining experience!

Always a treat to dine at Arroyo Vino. We were pleased to see TWO vegetarian dishes on the mains and we applaud you for having so many choices. Given dry January, I was also delighted to have a NA Sauvignon Blanc on the wine list (by the glass). We ate with another couple and every dish was splendid. My favorite continues to be the chicken and the bruschetta was particularly tasty. Jonathan remains as amazing as always. Thank you for a memorable meal.

Three of us had Thanksgiving dinner at Arroyo Vino. The appetizers were spectacular, including shrimp tempura, and a potato leek soup That was the best soup I had ever eaten. We all had the turkey dinner with whipped potatoes, cranberries, cornbread, and fresh green beans. All very tasty. for dessert, we had pumpkin pie and cranberry crème brûlée, which I liked a lot. It was the best restaurant Thanksgiving dinner we had ever had

The food was excellent, and we enjoyed the ambiance. My fresh pasta was delicious. It's one of our favorite places to eat.

Anytime we get to dine at Arroyo Vino and have Arturo as our server makes it 25% more special. His attentiveness to detail, having the answers to sometimes nuanced menu questions, and making suggestions about new items is unparalleled. We snared sunset seating at the window, which is not always possible, but made this visit visually spectacular outdoors to go with the fine food and company. We will continue to return again and again, usually leaving with a few bottles of wine too!

Superb dining experience in Las Campanas (just a short drive from downtown); quality, well-prepared entrees, extraordinary wine list, impeccable service, great views/ambiance and fair prices. Highly recommended
Wonderful dinner and great service...Audrey was very welcoming and Jack didn't miss a beat in the service—a convivial atmosphere....thank you..WLG

Arroyo Vino has a cozy, warm, and inviting atmosphere, tucked off of a residential road on the outskirts of Santa Fe. It's definitely on the pricey side. A dinner for three of us was $241 + tip, and consisted of 3 entrees, 1 glass of wine, sparkling water, 2 “mocktails”, 1 salad, 1 appetizer, 2 coffees, 1 cake dessert, and 2 scoops of sorbet. If we all had had an appetizer or salad, and perhaps more than 1 drink each, it certainly would've been over $300, so budget accordingly. Service was flawless. The ambiance was lovely, except that the choice of music (Beach Boys) would definitely spoil the mood if, for example, a couple was out for a romantic date. Restaurants need to be more conscientious about music, but most are not these days. The swordfish and pork chop were excellent, delicately flavored, and delicious, as was the mixed greens salad. The mocktails were absolutely fantastic, as was the pinot noir. And the homemade sorbet is out of this world — don't miss it. The focaccia is also amazing. Unfortunately, there's only one entree choice for a vegan (the tagine), but in order to make it vegan they remove the sauce and serve it as an incredibly bland and uninteresting dish. Any chef worth their salt (no pun intended) should be willing and capable of creating a fantastic vegan dish — it's not rocket science, and it's a grave and inexcusable oversight in the 21st century. The flatbread that came with the tagine was gluten free but not vegan (it contains butter), and it was dense and not very good, unlike the aforementioned focaccia. Overall, Arroyo Vino is expensive but lovely, and while meat and fish eaters will likely be in heaven, vegans will probably come away disappointed and hungry (or hangry), but vegetarians can be pretty happy if they like the tagine.

My evening here on October 29th was delightful. I was visiting from Keller, TX. Arroyo Vino was absolutely comparable to my favorite French Restaurant in Ft Worth, Saint Emilion, in quality, service and ambiance.
The location in the foothills was lovely and private. Watching the sunset was exquisite (see my photo).
The hostess from Texas and I connected. She made my visit so enjoyable. I started in the wine shop stocked with wonderful wines from around the world that are not usually seen. I purchased 2 quite affordable wines.
John, my server, was so professional and friendly. He made recommendations upon request, and I considered them with value for the excellent knowledge he has.
There are 3 to 5 courses depending on your level of hunger. Water comes flat or sparkling. Matching wine to what you wish to eat at each course is the best way to order. Again, John gave me asked for suggestions.
I ordered the Smash Burger for my main entrepreneur. It was delicious! However, I did remove the peppers as they were spicier than I expected. My mother who is gluten-free was back at the hotel, therefore, I ordered her a Smash Burger without peppers or bun since she had gluten-free bread. She said it was the absolute best burger she has ever eaten!
My appetizer of bread and cheese was exquisite! I skipped the next course and ordered my main dish. I also skipped dessert. With my 2 glasses of wine and food, I was fulfilled.
It was a joyful outing by myself while my mother rested. Bravo!

Our food was top notch and delicious. The one aspect about our evening was the service. We felt very rushed by our server and the energy was frenzied- not what we wanted on an evening out for a romantic dinner.

Our first time here, on recommendation of friends. Service, great, ambience, great. Love liberal spacing of tables. Keep it up! Food: beef short ribs, excellent. Swordfish, dry. Surrounded by way too much, and same color, beans. 1 of 2, you have a great place, you can do better !
