The place looks and feels really good! The staff was plentiful and friendly. Happy Hour menu was adequate, not great. The margaritas were flavorful! The menu is large, pricing is VERY high for the portions you get. Portions are small! Flavors are fine but not great.

This was our first visit to the Santa Fe. We were not disappointed, and will be back! Our server was Edgar, who is over-the-top, friendly, attentive, and explains several of the menu choices for us. He should be highly praised. The drinks were flavorful and went down good. The tableside guacamole service was prepared perfectly with fresh ingredients and the appropriate seasoning. My wife enjoyed the shrimp tacos, while I gorged on a three item combo plate. It included a chimichanga, enchilada, and chili relayno. The shredded beef was tender and flavorful as well as each sauce had its own distinctive flavor. Complementary chips, salsa, coleslaw, and refried beans rounded off the order. Like I said, we will definitely be back.

This used to be a boring Italian restaurant that was awful. T O D A Y it's a hopping fiesta for all of your senses. The Staff is young and high energy. The Drinks are beautiful and often served in bright illuminated glasses. If it's your Birthday, the staff sings and will provide you with a "Treasure Chest" that sparkles like a night sky. Ambient music is delightful and delicious, just like the food. If you're into a restaurant/cantina with a nightclub feel . Let the Fiesta begin!

Attentive wait staff. Good cocktails. Food is good. Chips, Salsa, and refried beans are provided at the table. Interior decorating and lighting is nice. Bathroom doesn’t appear to be remodeled compared to the rest of the place. Happy hour menu is missing a time frame.

Kudos to these owners for substantially investing in this space and creating a nice-looking ambience for a town that is in desperate need of more dining options. The menu is Mexican and there is a children's menu as well. The food was solid but uneven. The green enchiladas were mediocre. The steak fajita was better. The restaurant pushes drinks hard. They have an elaborate bar menu, with an emphasis on margaritas. The drink menu does not include prices, so they make you feel cheap by asking. The margarita was bland and watery. The children's margarita (essentially a slushy -- also with no price on the menu) was pretty good. The waitress was efficient but not particularly friendly. She ended the night by arriving with a machine and simply asking "card or cash" without actually presenting us with the itemized bill first. The service could use some work. The chips and salsa are complimentary and good!

The taco salad is more salad than meat, but was tasty enough. The ceviche is also good, but the shrimp is pre-cooked. The atmosphere is very nice with a large bar selection.

Food was mostly bland, vegetables undercooked, Mexican pizza was just an open faced guesadilla? You know it’s bad when my wife mentions that Taco Bell would have been a better option.The service staff had to practically get begged for attention for anything we needed, including clean silverware as 3/4 of the forks we got were dirty.They clearly invested heavily in the location and decoration of the place. A brand new restaurant in our smallish town. I had high hopes. I really hope they can step it up quick.Introduce yourselves? Throw an opening party or two? Talk to your locals? Sell the place you invested in.I tried to talk to the manager on the way out and literally wouldn’t look at me as he walked past.Could’ve been a fluke. Will try again in a few weeks and update.There is decent Mexican food in Wilsonville already. Step it up.

Very bad services, you arrive and they don't pass you. They no longer stare at you. Nothing like the service of Los Dos Agaves de Canby. There they do give good service. The girls are attentive and friendly.

We tried Santa Fe for the first time and were so impressed in every way. We started with the Cadillac margarita and it was perfect - love the tajín on the rim! The food was delicious and good quality - not greasy or goopy as some Mexican restaurants can be. The quantities were large, and (my favorite part) they served the meal with two additional kinds of house-made salsas that were both spicy and delicious! Saúl was our waiter, and he was very friendly and provided wonderful service (he checked on us enough but also didn’t come by too often). The atmosphere was fun and well-decorated. We really enjoyed our experience. We will definitely make this one of our regular spots!

The enchilada sauce looked and tasted like it was from a can! The fajitas were bland ..the presentation was nice, but the quantity and quality was nothing to brag about! Beautiful restaurant/ furniture/ atmosphere. Servers were nice, but young and inexperienced. We didn't have enough utensils, napkins and no one really checked if we needed anything. It seems to me that they cater to a certain group and focus more on the bar drinks than the food! Just being honest!! If you are looking for authentic Mexican food.... DON'T bother going there! It's more like Tex-Mex

Great new restaurant in Wilsonville! Food is delicious with a variety of options on the menu. Beverages rival that of a certain “factory” and the aesthetics of this restaurant are dialed in! The service has been great the few times we’ve been since it opened.
