50 Best Mexican Restaurants in Santa Fe

“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.“

“Great food and service! Owners are so nice and the food tastes great. More than decent portions for the price. Highly recommend!“

“The Food is great! And Everyone is so nice!“

“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!!“

“So unique! Very delicious !“

“Best menudo ever! Best burrito mole ever! Very authentic! Well worth the trip! Would recommend this restaurant hands down!“

“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'.“

“The breakfast were great!“

“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!“

“Breakfast Burrito-Mixed w/ bacon, chorizo & polish sausage. MASSIVE freshly cooked burrito. all meats are always chopped, cooked all the way through to perfection. signature green salsa is delicious with a good spice kick.“

“The BEST. One of the only places I’ve found around here with real authentic MEXICAN food. Great salsas, great meat.

The tortas and very large and delicious. The bread is always soft and fresh.

And they actually put beans and rice INSIDE the burrito“

“I came up to same fe from Phoenix Arizona for a few days and decided to stop by to eat and saw this place , so I figured I stop on by and I must say I never heard of brisket nachos before but let me tell you it's so fresh and hot and was very good ! if I ever come back to Santa fe next time I will stop here again“

“This was a random stop on my way home while passing through Sante Fe and was absolutely delicious! I got a pambazo and was not disappointed. It was a huge sandwich with a side of fries. It had amazing flavor and was so big I couldn't eat it all. My teenage son finished it off for and said it was gas! I highly recommend!“

“Fine food, great service, very roomy space with lots of parking. Wine and beer choices are decent. Has AC cooling. Not a long wait for a table most of the time. Highly recommended. Tom.“

“Food service and ambiance are fantastic. Best coffee in NM ☕️“

“Ramblin' Cafe is delicious. The staff is courteous and friendly. We love the breakfast burritos.“

“I go to this truck about 3 times a week. Their barbacoa tacos are some of the best I’ve had nationwide. The plates come with beans and rice not like most places in town that sell plates without the sides for the same or higher price . Best tacos on the block hands down .“

“great food and service 👌 🍻“

“Fast service and great food, will recommend 👍🏻!“

“Delicious food. This is not fast food, expect to wait for your food like a restaurant. Call it in if you're on a time crunch for lunch time. Worth it.
*Carne Asads burrito AMAZING
*California burrito AMAZING and good for breakfast/lunch“

“The food was great, and the service even better! We were in a time crunch to eat and make it to an event, and we were seated immediately.“

“My wife and I dined at The Pink Adobe on Tuesday, July 22, 2025. There was no wait time as we had a reservation. It was a special occasion, my wife's birthday. The ambiance was very nice; we sat inside as the music outside was a bit loud. Our waiter was very pleasant, although seemingly a bit overwhelmed. The food was very good but we were a bit shocked at the small size of the beet salad. We opted to share it and it would have been very little for one person. In addition, we were charged $8 for sharing. We were not informed about this charge ahead of ordering. We were pleasantly surprised to be served the traditional Pink Adobe apple pie as a birthday treat. All in all, it was a nice experience.“

“Colorful and pleasant place with a relaxed atmosphere. Lots of vegan options. The mole sampler is a must have with delicious warm moles. The mushroom quesadillas and vegan tacos are fresh and not too oily. Loved the kind service. Unfortunately they could not make the vegan Mexican hot chocolate today.“

“Everything is delicious.. we love the chicken dinners... the rolled chicken tacos... the chicken Tostadas... Everything is sooo yummy... 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Muy buena comida y buen ambiente“

“This place is pure magic! From the moment I stepped inside, I felt like I was transported to the heart of Mexico City. The food, the ambiance, everything was simply divine. It's a must-try for anyone who appreciates authentic Mexican cuisine and a touch of elegance“

“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“

“Fun permanent food truck if you want to enjoy lunch in the main Plaza. While everything was tasty recommend chicken fajita over beef. Both chicken and pork tamales were delicious and for the non adventurous the hot dog was nicely done and hit my sons spot. Owners said the food rotates every day. And we could easily picnic in the lovely park.“

“Delicious authentic food, we will be back!“

“A great find. We wanted to try local cuisine and happened upon Magueyes on a side street. The menu is extensive; and the server recommendations did not disappoint. The tortilla chicken soup was amazing. The chile verde was excellent! Of course the house margarita was delicious. Really a great experience.“

“Local food truck. Torta was exactly what you want from a torta and then some. Will be coming back next time I'm in town. Any one looking for a torta, this is your place. Ate it so fast I couldn't get a pic. Ordered the barbacoa torta.“

“This is the very best food truck I ordered the tacos barbecue and wow excellent. The 2 gentleman running this fantastic place were so friendly not weird friendly just all around good men if your in Santa fe stop in and say Hi, you will be happy that you did“

“Pues no le pude dar medio millon de estrellas como queria por que solo me dejan darle 5 pero si pudiera venir caminando desde Florida todos los dias para comer tacos de los de ustedes, lo haria feliz de la vida. Tremendo servicio, buenisimo ambiente y la comida? Orgəsmica de tan rica. No dejen de hacer las ricuras que hacen, vuelvo por mas y no es broma...“

“This is the best spot for breakfast burritos for 50 miles, and it’s always freshly and quickly prepared. My husband asks me to pick up a bacon and red anytime I’m going by, and I get the sausage and green. I’ve also had an excellent chimichanga, carne adovada burrito, and Chile relleno burrito. We are trying their tamales tonight, which were hot and waiting.We make more trips than we have to so we can stop by!“

“The burrito was one of the best I’ve had. The food trucks of Santa Fe are always better than the store front restaurants and that is certainly true here

The woman who served me and cooked the burrito couldn’t have been kinder - salt of the earth and thankful for places like this“

“Everything is delicious!!!“

“It was recommended to us by friends that they had the best red pork tamales, so we purchased some red pork and sweet tamales - they were some of the best we've eaten! They also have a huge selection of pan dulce (sweet bread), pastries, homemade bread and tortillas!

Parking: The parking could have been difficult because it's the holidays and almost everyone is out shopping.

Kid-friendliness: Saw a few kids there and alot of young at heart folks shopping there.“

“está muy rico y tiene variedad“

“Awesome dining experience in Santa Fe!“

“Very beautiful theme, great big drinks and the queso fundido is delicious.“

“We have ordered food for years from this location and have never once had a bad meal, or a bad experience. The staff are always so nice and have always made sure that whatever I ordered to go is always in the bag. This is one of our favorite places to eat.“

“We went to Los Amigos after visiting Meow Wolf. Family of 4- kids 5 & 8. Tortilla chips were delicious- fresh & not greasy- salsa had a good kick but not too spicy. *Loved* the guacamole but the cheese dip was chunky- similar to Rotel melted w Velveeta. The decor was cozy & well chosen, consistent w Southwestern theme. Felt like a local eatery- best kept secret. Kids had chicken strips (2 HUGE pieces) & grilled cheese. Both were fully eaten. Mom had 2 chicken enchiladas w red sauce & Dad had a special. Both came w a sopaipilla & honey. We cleaned our plates. But the crowning glory was the massive piece of 4-layer chocolate cake. We're talking Guiness World Book level size. So big that the 4 of us couldn't finish it!!! Will be back again- no question!“

“Absolutely loved the food that I had here and the staff was extremely nice, the place was clean. The tables worked as a table and the food was delicious and the prices were very good. What more can you ask for a restaurant?“

“I love love love the beef gorditas. They are fantastic and never disappoint.
The owners are sweet and always kind.
Give them time because they make it fresh to order, so it takes a while.
You absolutely need to get some gorditas STAT!!“
