Best Comfort Food Restaurants in Art District on Santa Fe

The Corner Office is a great place to go before a DCPA show, just make reservations ahead of time as they fill up. Food is good and service is excellent. It's our go-to place, when we remember to call ahead! The chicken and waffles are great for Brunch, the grilled cheese with tomato soup is a great quick lunch, as is the french dip sandwich. Generous portions cooked well.

The server was good but almost too good. He checked on us soooo many times to where it was annoying. Not sure if that's the managers rules but sometimes when a waiter check on you too many times it feel like they want you out of there or your suspicious. So great service but tooooo much checking. I know its a hard balance but it started to become irritating.

We always love Acova but last night was particularly special because we introduced friends to this gem. Each of us had our own wonderful entrees and we enjoyed delicious apps amongst us (the diablo eggs are to die for). I have celiac disease and this restaurant's menu is 95% gluten free or gluten free option available, proving that gluten free does not mean sacrificing on flavor, quality or price! We highly recommend Acova to everyone, celiac or not.

Amazing, creative, and authentic food. My wife and I sat at the bar / chef's counter which was great because we got to chat with our chef the whole time and get cool insight into all the dishes and watch them make everything. We tried the Barriga De Cerdo, Pescadilla De Marlin, and taco de cola de res, which were all delicious and would get again but our favorite dish was the Tostada de toro, it was so good we got another order instead of desert. You have to try at least a 1oz pour of mezcal too even if you're not a big mezcal fan. I forgot the name of the exact mezcal we had but they have an expert on staff that will recommend something for you, for us it was a "good beginners" mezcal. The mezcal was really good but the best part of it was what they serve the mezcal with.... I won't ruin the surprise on what it is but definitely worth trying for the experience and we found it to be surprising delicious.

First time, did not disappoint. Excellent food. Get on the waitlist as you are heading there. We will be back, again and again.
