Restaurants near La Fonda on the Plaza

Maybe the best enchiladas I’ve had in my life. Service was top notch, everything was outstanding

Have been here A LOT of times in my 3 years of living in Santa Fe & it’s always amazing! Live music in the back dining room & great food. They can accommodate most any plate to be gluten free & have amazing GF bread from Revolution Bakery.

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. 

It is a beautiful restaurant and one we hadn’t visited much in the past. We were given a gift certificate and thought it would be great to re visit the place. There aren’t many vegetarian choices on the menu but the chef prepared a beautiful dish with an array of charred mixed vegetables and a delicious red chile sauce on the side. It was lovely and we enjoyed our visit.

Coyote Cafe is a staple in our Santa Fe restaurant rotation. Every meal we’ve had there has been excellent. New Year’s Day was no exception (even though we were still full from our New Years Eve dinner lol). Started with the kampachi and then I had the sea bass and my husband had the elk tenderloin. I opted for wine by the glass instead of bottle (see NYE comment above) and the server recommended a wonderful, minerally white that perfectly complemented the fish. We’ll definitely be back!
