First, the ambiance alone justifies a visit here. Funky, entertaining art, with Friday Kahlo in a spicy pose being my favorite. The ceiling architecture is interesting too. Service is by order at the counter. Interesting food selection. Parking is provided in back. read more

We stopped here after visiting the plaza, it's affordable and they have so much variety. The food was good and it's a casual nice spot. I loved their house kimchi. The servers are polite and the wait time is wasn't bad at all. read more

Had a great meal here with friends. Hadn't been here since they opened. I LOVE kimchi & I've found a MECCA for it. I had the kimchi Burrito with beef short ribs. We also ordered the bibimbap bowl with short ribs & the arugula salad with salmon. All were FRESH & tasty! I will say that the salad "dressing" could have been tastier...it's JUST EVOO. Could use some vinegar or other flavors to enhance the arugula. read more

Charming place with phenomenal food and service. Outstanding job to the whole team! Ordered the Caesar Salad with grilled chicken- which for me was the standout of the whole meal. Also ordered the carne asada enchiladas which were delicious but outshined by the salad. We also go the smothered tater tots which came by recommendation they were delicious!! There's a water jug and cups for water but they also serve fountain drinks and a few canned beverages. Thanks for having us! read more

this is gonna be a really good spot once they get really goin. I always loved Café Sonder because it was the perfect kind of sneak away for lunch / maybe stay a little longer and work place... and they maintain that quality here. There are French dips, salads, Korean barbecue, hot chicken, and these things called sweet jars... And eventually a champagne and charcuterie bar coming at some point... The mac & cheese is comfortingly familiar and super rich. Fried chicken is a great crunch and tenderness, served super hot and fresh. It could use a little spice and salt... to be honest. But it's right behind dolina. Almost every dish is sized to share. even the mac! My companion says the tacos are delicious. I am really stoked for when the bar opens up. it's got a cool vibe. This will be a great place to work/snack in the afternoons. read more

Capital Coal - a sticker with the words, where the city different - Chicken Shop Near Me - Santa Fe, New Mexico

The food isn't bad. It's also not that good. The French dip (hatch version) was pretty unremarkable. The beef was tender and not very flavorful and the dipping juice was a bit like boxed beef broth. A $17 Caesar? Nice romaine but the dressing was so-so, nothing special. If $6; maybe but simply not worth the price. My wife had the Bibimbap Bowl with pork belly; a little more successful but nothing we would rush to try again. It's all decent and over priced. read more

We are locals and this place is a new favorite!! Wow! So eclectic and delicious. We had the "cups" of miso soup which were actually massive bowls filled with tofu and mushrooms. They did not skimp. I had the bimibop bowl with tofu and it was full of kimchi and pickles. Healthy and clean. Our son had 2 chicken tacodillas. One would have been enough. Really a generous portion. My husband had the turkey dip and his eyes popped wide open after the first bite. Oh and don't forget an order of tater tots! "Mom, these don't taste like they do at school.... They're so much better!" Oh and I read someone's review below saying the staff was rude. No friggin way! I joked around with them, we laughed and they were so helpful and kind. Don't believe the trolls. We had an incredible experience. And please don't forget to walk around and meet the other food hall entrepreneurs. Meet the women who bake scones! Check out Mary Beth's mind blowing drawings and her handmade jewelry. She also sells pasta, oils, vinegars and sauces from Sicily and Italy. Suffice to say we had a great afternoon! read more

I mostly have only gotten to go food here but the quality and consistency have been excellent. I've tried items from nearly every menu including the poke menu and enjoyed every thing I've tried. The dining room is quite nice but hasn't changed since this was Cafe Sonder. Try it, I think you'll like it. read more

The food here is really good with lots of options. Bibimbap, tacos, fried chicken and the Mac and cheese were good options and we enjoyed all of them. Good wine selection and way overpriced beer. The staff appears to be working hard but was less than helpful and borderline rude. When I asked the cashier if a wine was bubbly, she said no. I ordered it and it was champagne. When I asked her about it, it was clear she was not interested in rectifying it. When we spilled some water, we were met with eye rolls even after wiping most of it up and asking for a towel to do it ourselves. There are signs plastered on every wall and in the shop that state all the things that your kids are not allowed to do in the establishment. With the preface of "While we love your children...". Not every restaurant is kid friendly and they are not required to be but this place was especially not. We felt eyes on us the whole time even though our children were behaving. If you truly love children in your restaurant, then a small corner with some kid friendly activities would help. It would deter kids from doing all the things on your long list of things you don't want them to do. read more

We are always looking for a new restaurant to try and decided to walk here after Nukles Brewery. The restaurant is located close to the Santa Fe Plaza in the walkable area of Santa Fe. Parking can be an issue here, but it is walkable from the garages. The interior is modern and beautiful with lots of cool art of the walls. I love the neon art that is sprinkled throughout the place. The service was so friendly and great. They have a large menu with a lot of options. We decided to try the Nashville Hot food on this trip. My guest ordered the shrimp with the mild sauce. The flavor was great and the breading held up to the sauce well. It was crunchy and delicious. I ordered the tenders with hot sauce. The flavor was great, but I don't think it was hot. I noticed some beer that I had not seen before, so I tried one with jasmine tea in it. It was good and had an interesting flavor, even though I did not detect Jasmine. We order the Irish car bomb cup for dessert. If you like very sweet desserts, this is for you. The flavor is good, but it is super sweet. We also got an ube Rice Krispie to go. I notice that the couple next to us ordered from a different section of the menu. They had a dip and the sandwich was pretty large. They also had a bowl with beef and veggies, which was also a large serving. I definitely want to try that sandwich on the next visit. I definitely recommend this place and would return. read more

Hot chicken sliders are the best !!! Brioche bun with homemade pickles. Awesome counter service . Poke Santa Fe in the same building.

too greasy. I got sick. The potato fei s were ROCK hard, and everything was slapped or thrown in the box.. this was my first time and last time. So expensive & to get poor quality food is depressing. Absolutely awful. Have fun running to the bathroom from all that grease from the spicy chicken. read more

This place was recommended to us by Big Adventure Comics next door as a place to get a glass of wine and sit on the patio to read the graphic novels we'd just bought. The wine was lovely. The patio is completely delightful: fully covered, full of comfortable chairs with tables for food and drink, and surrounded by foliage, which keeps it cool and shady. We tried the pick-your-own charcuterie board. I love this because most charcuterie boards automatically come with a blue cheese, which I don't care for. The wine list is good; we had a bottle of Pinot noir. We have to go back because they have so many GF options, including all the poke bowls. read more

So many food options to satisfy everyone in your party ranging from comfort food to local New Mexican to trendy. The soups are so delicious (we ordered two of them) and a cup would be considered a bowl at any other restaurant- what a deal! I didn't leave a drop it was sooo good. The stacked enchiladas were so yummy and the salads were so fresh. Beautiful art on all the walls completed the experience of wanting to just linger longer. A bonus inside the food hall is a little boutique of gorgeous art (met the artist which personalized my purchase). There's also a scone shop inside that has gf too but the best part is they aren't dry previous scones I've had, so fresh! Met the women who make them and I just had to tell them the cranberry orange was to die for! Check this place out- you will not be disappointed! read more

My go-to place in town. Decision-anxiety-inducing menus with tasty options for every mood, including New Mexican. I have yet to order something I didn't like. Variety of seating options, including cozy booths, loungy furniture, bar counter, high tops, and a nice outdoor area in the summer. Just a great casual place to eat, drink, and hang out with upscale (but affordable!) food and ambience. read more

Huge variety of food, all good from what I have had. The ambience is friendly and the transformation of what was previously an old-time diner feeling into something open and modern is pleasant. This is a "walk up to the counter and order, and then they bring it to you" type of place, so service is pretty minimal, but quick and cheerful. read more

We love this new spot! Great food hall concept with so many great options to choose from. The space is very nice and welcoming. They also have a great bar area and lounge, plus a nice spot to watch sporting events throughout the year. It's turned into one of our favorite spots. The food is amazing! We've tried just about every food concept and and we'd eat them all again and again. Tonight we had the Bibimbap bowl with pork belly, arugula salad and tasty jarred desserts read more

This is great spot for delicious, distinctive, moderately priced food. The overall concept is unique and initially hard to grasp, much less explain--it is a sort of counter service, modern foodhall all its own (multi- offerings under one chef) . My wife and I have been here a number of times since it opened. Early on only part of the space was open; now the entire layout is available, with a different, casual vibe in each section. The food is the draw as it is playful, bright and distinctive in its version of particular standards or culinary traditions; all platted with style. For what arrives at the table, it delivers on value. CC also has special popup nights, offering things like riffs on the best in fresh oysters or smash burgers. It's a short walk from downtown and in a cultural area all its own. Me gusto mucho! read more

Great concept and choices from exceptional chefs. Stop in for brunch, lunch, dinner or lounge with drinks and snacks for a variety of tastes. Great hot chicken sliders! read more

Great new spot for much needed modern ethnic cuisine in Santa Fe that is not Fine Dining. The space is random/not inviting. Service is good. Good food, interesting menu. read more

The truffle French dips sandwich is out of this world! I've been back many times since and have never been disappointed

I couldn't believe how good the food was, we ordered almost everything on the menu and every single thing we had was delicious. Service was amazing! And a great atmosphere. Love this place! read more

Another great meal tonite. You need to get over her and sample the menu. We've had the italian french dip, the chicken slider, the burrito with bulgogi, and the chicken tenders (mild heat) and they were all great. Been back 2 times now and would like to see more Santa Feans coming out to enjoy their great food. read more

Awesome decor, nice patio, great location, excellent music, really nice folks, yummy foods and beverages. Don't sleep on this new-ish business read more

Expensive, flavorless . The food is meh, the service is ok. The ambiance is super cool but I wish the food was better. Why is it so expensive for the quality? read more

Tried for the first time. Food was wonderful. Service was attentive. Nice bar area, with large screen for sports. Fried shrimp was crispy without being greasy. Excellent selection of salads. My son liked the Korean bbq bowl. The Lemon meringue jar was so good! read more

Great food, friendly service, a good place to kick back and relax. I loved the Zia Diner, not so much Cafe Sonder. Capital Coal is going to give Zia a run for its money. The food concept (four separate styles - Nashville hot chicken, salads, Korean, and French dip sandwiches) was interesting. We had chicken (best fried chicken ever) and short rib tacos ( delicious). I'm going back till I've tried everything. read more

I'll start by saying we really want this place to make it, thus the 4 stars. We love the space - Zia Diner was our go-to restaurant back in the day. We were there on a quiet Sunday afternoon. Ordered 3 meals, the bowls were good, not great. But the 3 chicken tender plate was very underwhelming/inedible. Not spicy as ordered, dry as leather, uncuttable, on a piece of toast with a few pickles. Besides the inedibleness, for $15, a side of fries or a salad would have rounded this out as a meal. We ordered a beer which hadn't come by the time our food arrived. When we asked at the counter, they said they'd send it out. Five minutes later a guy comes by with the beer thinking we've ordered a second and wanting to charge us. Clearly a communication problem between the counter and bar. On our way out I smiled and approached chef Dakota, but she was curt and not receptive to any discussion so we left. We will try again, fingers crossed our experience was a one-off. read more
