50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Santa Fe

“Dumpling Review: (August 2025, 5 stars)
This place has some of the best pork steamed buns I have had. Shumai and other options on the menu and some amazing looking soups too!
The dumpling sauce with Chile paste is superb!

Perfect place to go on a short lunch break or while stopping by in Santa Fe

Original boba review: (pre 2024, 4 stars)
Very good boba tea, especially for the price! I love the brown sugar boba the most but the dragon fruit and lychee poppers and fruit drinks are also very refreshing and sweet

“The NEW MEXICO food {breakfast, lunch, dinner} at this place is A+++++. Yes, I am a native New Mexican - I very much know about New Mexico food. The owners are very much involved. Your server may in fact be an owner. John Funk / Roswell, NM / john“

“Loved this spot. Awesome menu and wine list. Loved it“

“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 service and food in a lovely setting. Superb wine list too!“

“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.“

“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.“

“Excellent food and atmosphere“

“After years of visiting Santa Fe, this was our first visit to the Coyote Cafe. My wife started out with a Hot Buttered Rum, which took the chill off from the walk to the restaurant, and keeping with the outside temperatures, I had a delightful Winters Blush, with rhubarb, cinnamon topped with sparkling wine. We had a salad and the Tellicherry Peppered Elk Tenderloin. Both were well prepared and delicious. Clifford provided excellent service -- there when we needed him. We plan to return when next in Santa Fe.“

“Wonderful food and great service! Loved the Christmas chilies on my burrito!“

“Since they close at 3:00, I get my pie par baked and finish it in my oven at 500 degrees for 5 minutes. It comes out delicious! I love a half pesto and a half #2 16 inch pizza. Just fits in my oven. Really nice and helpful staff too!“

“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.“

“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!!“

“fantastic food, service was great. the waiter was extremely informative and attentive! the BBQ sandwich was really good!“

“southern Indian cousine. mild and flavorful“

“So unique! Very delicious !“

“The Sumi room is a beautiful new addition to the offerings at Izanami! The ambiance felt more like a fancy date night in this space than the main dining room. The staff was attentive, friendly, and kind throughout the evening. The sashimi was phenomenal as always, tofu “pasta” was really fun, and the apple kimchi salad was fresh and different. We always love going there for fancy date nights, and I don't see that changing any time soon :)“

“What a beautiful and serene space to walk into. Very kind and attentive service. The chef‘s plate with roasted acorn squash and dal was superbly done and flavored and the green plate offered a unique texture and flavor combination with poblano pepper, quinoa and fresh salad. Their masala fries are for sure a fun add on. High five for oat milk chai and vegan mango lassi.“

“Gorgeous place. Fresh bread and food in every variation! Delicious quiche and amazing coffee“

“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!“

“ese lugar me encanta la comida es deliciosa mi familia y yo vamos cada fin de semana lo recomiendo 💯y todos los meseros son excelentes 👌“

“The epitome of a comfortable and well managed French bistro! Friendly and welcoming staff. The baked goods and quiches are picturesque yet well prepared. Review photos are consistently correct. The galette crust could use more butter as it was on the dry and less flavourful side. The quiche was comparable to spots in France with excellent flavour & texture. Fair prices and delectable coffee! A popular haunt and worth the wait if need be. Convenient large parking lot.“

“We've been going to Restaurant Martin for several years but hadn't been there in awhile. It was so good to return. The food is exceptional, everything on the menu is outstanding, impeccably prepared. Chef Martin Rios is a true gourmet chef, a real master. No question that he is one of the very finest, if not the finest, chef in Santa Fe. The restaurant's service was perfect, the ambience excellent. The highest recommendation.“

“El mejor servicio y la mejor comida 100% recomendado 😋“

“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...“

“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!!“

“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!“

“Great food fast and clean. The staff were all fast friendly and everyone moved with smiles and like a well working machine. The best food I had while visiting Santa Fe!“

“Great atmosphere. Wines were delicious. And calamari was perfect“

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

“Delicious pastries and tasty egg options“

“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“

“Realburger makes the best burger in Santa Fe, hands down. Their menu is varied with both traditional New Mexican food as well as their delicious burgers, hot dogs, and shakes. My wife, a vegetarian, raves about their calavacitas tacos - the only place in Santa Fe that serves this scrumptious dish. The Chavez family is warm, friendly, and inspirationally hard working. Do yourself a favor and check out one of Santa Fe’s best kept secrets.“

“Great Take out menu and the food is fantastic. Support our local restaurant.“

“Amazing 10/10 recommend the man who owns it is amazing super kind and friendly and very quick considering he’s by himself . Very affordable food! The tortilla on the tacos taste home made and thick! The burritos are amazing every time!!!

I also wanna add he was closed at this time of day that’s why the window is closed in the picture due to having a big order to make all by himself .. & he still was willing to make me my order and bring it out to me!!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Fantastic food, service and coffee!“

“Had a fantastic dinner with my wife. Really nice restaurant with outstanding food and service. We had the beef ribeye and the flank steak. Both were cooked perfectly and came with delicious sides. Topped it off with a good bottle of Rombauer Cab! We're from Texas where beef is king but these dishes were exceptional and we'll be back next time in Santa Fe! Clay & Karen Wade“

“really great egg salad sandwiches“

“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.“

“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“

“I love Greek food and try new places any time I can. I took my whole family here after a day at Meow Wolf. We were starving and after solving a few mysteries (asking questions about the menu) we placed orders and anxiously awaited the surprises to come. We were not disappointed! Delicious gyro, soft pita, fresh veggies, amazing salad, homemade hummus, and delectable sauces. The gentleman who served us was so friendly and helpful, too. We had such a great experience here!“

“Been looking for sopes (never had 'em before) and found them here. You can get 1 to 3 sopes, and I got 2 with al pastor for $8. They were much bigger sopes than I thought. 2 was the perfect amount for a full meal. They were slightly spicy, and the sauce that came with added a bit more heat. Overall, they were REALLY good and well worth the price!“

“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.“

“What a lovely tasting room. The wines are just fabulous. I've always been a fan of their sparking wines but my eyes were really open to the gorgeous still red and white wines they offer. I couldn't be more impressed. The service was warm and friendly.“

“Visiting Santa Fe and booked a last minute dinner reservation. The staff is extremely friendly, ambience and music was intimate and sweet. The food is absolutely 5 star! The presentation and flavors were exquisite! Amazing wine selection and we would highly recommend this restaurant! It reminded us of being in Telluride and dining at a Michelin five star NYC restaurant. Terra Cotta is an absolute must if you're visiting and wanting a beautiful dining experience!“
