Restaurants near La Fonda on the Plaza

Good food and great service…from the hostess stand to Juany our server + the support staff. Everyone was friendly and helpful…thank you…WLG

The food and ambience was extraordinary - knew that going in and was why we chose the place for our overnight in Sante Fe. Truly exceptional was the time the server took to discuss craft cocktails with my guest who is an expert as well.

We were very pleasantly surprised by our dinner at Coyote Cafe! We were initially a bit confused as to how to get into the restaurant and if we had booked a reservation at the restaurant or rooftop, but once we found our way, our entire experience was great! Our waiter was very knowledgeable and friendly and the food was fantastic! We had the kabocha squash soup, bison carpaccio, and elk tenderloin - all of which were fabulous with such unique Native American-inspired flavors. The only thing we had that didn’t quite live up to our expectations was the pecan pie for dessert. But otherwise everything far surpassed our expectations and it was a phenomenal first meal for our weekend in Santa Fe.

Santa Cafe provided us a warm and memorable Thanksgiving experience!! Our original plans were unexpectedly re-routed due to over two foot of snow in Telluride. Santa cafe was an unexpected and amazing surprise with the most savory and delicious food anyone could ever imagine and their staff giving up their Thanksgiving day to make ours special. Many thanks to all of you…and your hospitality, much appreciated! My husband enjoyed the calamari and I enjoyed the pillowy, pumpkin ravioli. This followed by the filet on celery root puree with scalloped stacked potato and herb side dish. I enjoyed the amazing bone in chop with some sort of pearl pasta in the most amazing wine reduction sauce! Waiter, somalier, stopped by and then the manager with a gift, it was a jar of hot rum mixture to take home and a sample at the table. It was delicious! Thank you for such a memorable experience!

We are Spanish and can verify that the food is authentic Spanish. The morcilla pinxtos were excellent, the lamb albondigas were bigger and tastier than we expected, and the baguette and olive oil were excellent. The espresso was also excellent.
