Zacatlán is the nahuatl translation for "land with an abundance of grass", and that is where our idea of Zacatlán Restaurant began. Zacatlán Restaurant desires to continue to preserve the traditions for our upcoming generations, while bringing forth new flavors. These new flavors incorporate Southwestern and Mexican influences. We are established near the Santa fe Plaza, right off of Guadalupe Street. We want to unveil a new fusion of food for everyone in Santa Fe and those who visit.

    An exquisite experience, start to finish. May have been our best meal ever from the beginning (chef's moles) to the end (Princessa--light pastry and cream with fresh berries) and Carajillo (Mexico City style coffee with Licor 43, Godiva Dark Chocolate Liqueur, espresso, and cream). We shared Sopa de Amor (to-die-for pamblano soup), Xochimilco (huitlacoche), and black pepper-encrusted aged Angus beef tenderloin. All perfectly prepared and delectable.

    We'd been meaning to check out Dinner for Two for quite a while and finally got the chance when friends came into town. It didn't disappoint. Cocktails were very good, food was excellent (including the bananas foster for dessert), and the wine list offered the wine we wanted. Service was very good - Jose took great care of us. Other than the slippery floors, a great evening. We're coming back to check out the Happy Hour menu which looks like a great opportunity to try lots of menu items.

    Fantastic food!!! Sweet little place with an attached enclosed patio. We had a family style table and from the special prawn dish; the outstanding cedar salad, lamb shank.. awesome margaritas too. The food is more elevated than the decor- which on the positive creates a charming vibe.. like you’ve stumbled upon something unique and special. Which of course you have!! Do not hesitate to book here!
