位於Santa Fe​的優質美國西南部菜​餐廳

Date night out with my spouse and her choice was La Pazuela in the Hotel La Fonda. Ambiance was excellent…beautiful romantic dining room as well as a separate tavern with live music—-flamenco guitar trio, I believe. Our hostess seated us promptly for our reservation for two and bottled water and a mocktail was ordered. Our server, Bryan, was on point with menu recommendations and explanations. We ordered the Chiles Rellenos (one cheese and one shredded beef) and a chicken enchilada duo with “Christmas Chile Sauce.” Nothing was too spicy, the accompanying posole and pintos were excellent as well as the entrees. After dinner coffee and a shared pineapple upside down cake was a perfect finisher. Afterwards, we sat for a bit in front of a huge, cozy fireplace—how idyllic. The service staff didn’t miss a beat, the hostess validated our parking, and we were on our way to stroll the town square and enjoy the holiday lights. Strongly recommend staying in the hotel if you’re visiting Santa Fe and enjoying the fireplace seating areas as well as a reasonably priced dinner at La Pazuela.

I ate light and enjoyed the French Onion soup very much. It had terrific flavor and really was made right. Wish the wine list had more options, but it was adequate.

This is one of my favorite restaurants in Santa Fe and Northern New Mexico. It’s relatively small and family-run. The owner-chef is from Zacatecas, Mexico, and although he gives a nod to Northern New Mexico’s cuisine, his menu is unique in this area. He is an excellent cook, and the food is fresh and innovative. By all rights, it should be very difficult to get a reservation here, though it isn’t.

This is a great place for a date night! My husband and I were pleasantly surprised that there was live guitar music on a Sunday evening. We took the rail runner up from Albuquerque and had an awesome time! The cocktail menu was such a hit, and I really loved the creativity! We enjoyed the mussels as an appetizer, and steaks as entrees, perfectly cooked! Table-side banana foster was a delicious treat to top off an amazing meal. Looking forward to coming back again soon!

The same food that is at every other restaurant in Santa Fe. Like the classic meal for American's in 1970. Who ever this guy is who's destroyed the food scene in Santa Fe needs to stop.
