El Farol Restaurant is an elegant and expensive dining spot in Santa Fe, featuring traditional indoor decor and a separate bar area. They are known for excellent paella and custard dessert, although portion sizes are on the smaller side. The staff is attentive, and guests have found the dinner show electrifying, praising the energy and precision of the performance. El Farol is celebrated for its tapas, sangria, and flamenco, providing a unique experience with delicious dishes such as Patatas Brava, calamari, and Polenta. The warm and inviting service makes it a worthwhile return destination. Possibly the oldest restaurant (100+ years) in this even older town (400+ years), El Farol is THE place to go for both tapas and old Santa Fe charm, with live music often playing in the bar room or dining room. Outdoor tables line the front side, along Canyon Road, and there's a shaded portal out back, creating a relaxing atmosphere.
