We tried Dolina this morning and it was AMAZING ‼ We had their quiche special - Swiss chard and loved it! It came with a salad and the portions were generous. The vibe of the place was inviting, and the staff was attentive. We will definitely be back! read more

Had an amazing lemon poppy seed muffin, but weren't able to stay for a full meal because the parking situation is TERRIBLE. The hubs dropped me off at the front to get in line while he looked for parking, and he just never found a spot. Maybe we will come back some day, but the parking challenge really put a damper on our opportunity to eat here. read more

Some friends recommended Dolina for breakfast, so we had to give it a try. I had the nutty granola. My wife had a currant scone and a side of fresh fruit. The granola was good. The scone was just OK. The staff was friendly, although a bit overeager to take away our plates before our food was finished. read more

What an incredible find! We watched a lot of locals come by...with their dogs and children after soccer practice. My husband had the ORGANIC CHICKEN SCHNITZLE and I the PESTO OMELET. Clean ingredients and simple food, tasty and the right proportion. The server was pleasant, respectful and attentive without being overbearing. We sat out and even on a hot and high UV day, the umbrella and light breeze was just what we needed. Parking is free on Saturdays across the street! read more

Such a unique bakery and restaurant! If you're looking for something different this New Mexican cuisine with a Hungarian twist, look no further. It was packed and we had to wait maybe 5 minutes to be seated for Sunday brunch. I had the baked eggs which were delicious and tomatoey and we shared the langos (fried bread with burrata). Service was prompt and fast and the food came quickly. I enjoyed the different flavors and how light and everything tasted. I did not have an opportunity to try the baked goods but my friend got some pastries to take home and said they were divine. Also saw actor Gary Farmer here enjoying it! read more

Dolina located a bit away from the downtown Santa Fe area, but still within walking distance. They have a cute patio area available if you are visiting on a nice day. I sat on their patio and ordered the baked eggs and one of their homemade flavored iced teas. The baked eggs were flavorful and were the ideal portion for filling very satisfied, but not stuffed. read more

Dolina delivered a great breakfast experience. The food was definitely good, if I lived in Santa Fe, this might be my go-to breakfast spot. The service struck the right balance: attentive without being overbearing. Our waitress was friendly and took the time to walk us through the menu. We sat on the front patio, which was a pleasant spot. Although it's close to the street, the traffic wasn't a distraction. The only downside is the parking. it's tight and options are limited. But hey, you take what you can get. Overall, a solid breakfast joint. read more

So, it isn't often that I get invited to a large gathering of family (not my own) at a classically classic Santa Fe eatery. Upon entry I saw 12 people seated at a giant square table... I made the baker's dozen! The service was great and food lived up to its reputation. Large groups or just brunch for two, Dolina's can handle it! read more

Everything ordered was delicious. We ordered a smothered burrito, breakfast croissant, salmon tartine, and ricotta pancakes. Service was friendly and above average. read more

Every one of the menu items was outstanding! We ordered the lemon ricotta pancakes to share for the table and they were as good as I've ever had and I've had lemon ricotta pancakes at several places. We also had the French toast, breakfast grains and baked eggs (in tomato sauce, garlic confit, charmoula w/ toast), exceptional all in taste & presentation. I was a manger in fine dining establishments in La Jolla, CA for 20 years and found the food as well prepared and flavorful as any I've ever had. Great job! read more

I had a fantastic breakfast here with family. The food is excellent. The bacon was cooked to perfection, and the waffle was light, fluffy, and tasty. Others had quiche, burritos, and the French toast Slovakian style. Although the server was very busy with other diners, she took time to take a picture of our group that was sweet. It was a treat to have a leisurely breakfast outside. read more

This place is located in a busy intersection. There's parking in the back so it was good. I want to say this is a texmex with a touch of Slovak or middle eastern Food: I got baked egg which is basically a shakshuka without cheese, family got breakfast burrito, simple eggs and toast. Lattes. For the baked egg it was good similar to a shakshuka without the cheese. The herb sauce that came with it was amazing. My family believe the breakfast burrito was excellent. Service: it was busy so I can't decrease the star to 4. Although I'd wish my server remembered the fresh squeezed ginger lemon tumeric juice... I can't blame here because she was running Around read more

*beware of parking lot. It is tiny and so you may have to park over in front of sprouts. There is also currently construction on the street making it crazier.* We were seated quickly at the community table. Our food was delicious! I got the Sant Fe omelette plate. The omelette was nice and soft with nicely cooked mushrooms and cheese. The hash browns could have been crunchy but overall I was happy. We asked to split the check which did end up with some confusion. So maybe just make sure you look at your receipt. read more

Delightful off the beaten path place with a wide ranging menu featuring healthy and organic options. We enjoyed a breakfast burrito and chicken and waffles. Both were good, but the bacon in the burrito was rock hard and hard to chew. Service wasn't good. Server went away for long periods without refilling coffee or water. read more

I first went to Dolina on a trip to Santa Fe a couple of years ago. (Yum, chicken paprikash!) When I returned, I was excited to share the experience with other friends, and my memories did not disappoint. It was a tough call, but I got the salmon tartine this time, though I drooled profusely looking at the breakfast sandwiches my friend's ordered. (OMG...). The smoked salmon was tender and delicate in flavor; it paired excellently with the lemony greens. I would say the dish almost verges salad, which after many meals of chile rellenos and enchiladas, was a welcome reprieve. It's a bustling place for sure, which does create some difficulties in terms of seating and service. (I wanted to get a pastry to go, for example, but at a certain point you just give up on these things.) When we visited (September), there was a lot of construction on the adjoining road as well, which made navigating parking a bit of a challenge. I would recommend finding something on an adjacent side street though regardless. (Not knowing any better we pulled into the small entry and parking lot initially, and then someone rather stubbornly pulled in after us and left us stuck there for awhile, as there's no way to round the building.) All of that said, whatever wait or hassle involved, I would eat this food over and over and over again. read more

You may ask - how in the world could a breakfast spot rate 5 stars? Well.... by creating a unique menu, sourcing the freshest ingredients, preparing their plates to rival michel-star establishments, and have freidnly and attentive service that ensures you are beyond satisfied with your entire experience. My half-order of the salmon toast point was a perfect size and scrumptious. The quiche of the day was homemade with a flaky pie crust and perfectly baked filling. Their decaf coffee was even delicious!! read more

The entry way is crowded with patrons waiting for seats and we struggled to look at the display of baked goods while being hounded by the service staff to put in our order. All we wanted was a coffee and a pastry to go, all we got was getting pushed around and pressured into ordering. The environment was stressful and dismissive. We left without buying anything. I'm not willing to spend my money at a business that does nothing to earn my business. Very disappointing first experience to an establishment that has such good reviews and reputation. read more

I should've known when the line was out the door that I was in for a real treat. I ordered the waffles, which were the lightest, melt-in-your-mouth tastiest waffles I've had in ages!

What a unique and vibrant menu at this sweet little cafe. Amazing service from our waitress Jess. She helped us decide what to order and suggested the tuna sandwich and a Cesar salad and some amazing pastries. Iced tea was so fresh. The tuna is cured in house and unlike any other tuna sandwich I've had, though it does remind me of how make my own with capers and tomatoes. Everything was fresh and delicious. Absolutely will be back. One tip, just park across the street. read more

This is a hotspot. Table service, nice waiter. Food is pricey for breakfast foods, but also seems like the going rate. Croissant sand which was dry but delicious. Slovakian fry bread thing didn't have much flavor or sauce - but I'm guessing that is how it is supposed to be. With tip it was $69 for those dishes and 2 coffees. read more

We are in town on vacation and heard about this local diner. It has a modern Polish atmosphere. The staff are very friendly and attentive to our needs. We ordered the baked eggs and pesto omelette. The food came out quickly and very hot. They offer fresh food and drinks that are made in house. They also have a small bakery that makes some traditional polish pastries as well as Mexican favorites. While they are primarily polish, they also offer many Mexican dishes as well. They are a brunch place and very busy so come by early! We definitely want to come back for lunch and try the paprikas and goulash. read more

The food is always delicious and well prepared. Once you're seated, the server comes right away and your order is taken.

Driving into town from Albuquerque, I figured I'd stop at Dolina for a small lunch. Alas, their electricity was out! Darn! As I planned my departure, I noted Dolina opened early. I stopped in for an Americano and a Breakfast pastry. I drank the excellent coffee during my drive and saved the pastry for the airport. Everyone around me was envious! They ate their cardboard sweets while I had a real treat. Next time I'm back in Santa Fe, I'm back at Dolina. read more

let me say this the the service sucks. We used to go here party of two. We'd be in line and if there was a party four that came in after or larger parties, they would sit the larger parties instead of us that had been their first so now we have not been there for two years. Try Cafe Catron right arount the corner!! Great food read more

Delicious breakfast! We tried the Breakfast burrito and Ricotta pancakes. Both delicious. I really enjoyed their coffee. Very smooth and robust. If you enjoy a great cup of coffee, in my opinion, this is the best in town. Grab a pastry on your way out. read more

I tried Dolina for the first time yesterday for breakfast. The setting is clean, casual and airy. The service was prompt and friendly.

I was so excited to go eat here as it's super highly rated. Unfortunately, we waiting for over 30 min, the line was so unorganized. The front was for to go orders, ordering outside and getting our name on the list. We ended up signing up for a a table for 2. Our name was called and got seated. We ordered our drinks and as we are waiting for them the girl in front came. Told us it wasn't our name that was called and told us other people needed to be seated in our spot. I mentioned to her that we had already ordered. She said "'I'll let them know". No apologizes or anything for being seated wrong and being told to give our seat to someone else. She ended up saying they called for a complete different name. Completely understandable if they were more organized. As a party of three was seated before us, after they came in after us. It was extremely rude and very unprofessional to give up our seat after ordering. This place is unorganized and gets extremely crowded, they should use a buzzer system. Due to their lack of service and communication skills, I will not be going back. read more

The food is fresh, wonderful Eastern European cuisine options along with very good options. I highly recommend this place.

I have been here several times and enjoy the food. However, the service is always very slow. I also feel that the price point is higher than it should be. Waiting 45 minutes for food is too much and needs to improve to justify the prices. read more

Even better than I remembered it 3yr ago! I don't always have the privilege to revisit a place after multiple years & still find the quality to be wonderful, but to 1Up my memory is incredible! On this occasion, I enjoyed the Breakfast Croissant & tried my bf's Santa Fe Omelet. These are both fantastic choices. Previously, I had the beautiful French Toast. So, now I have had both sweet & savory dishes. I gotta say, savory is the way to go, but sweet is never bad. The matcha & chai lattes are deliciously smooth The staff is pleasant and nice & the location is cute in or outside read more

Dolina, apparently a Slavic term for valley, has very good food and beverages, with an Eastern European flair, but the chaotic environment every time we visit this establishment keeps them from earning five stars in my book. Dolina's location in SF is decent, but their facility and the parking availability feel inadequate. The crazy busy scene with people waiting inside the building near the pastry case and cash register, and crowds of customers standing just outside the entrance to the restaurant usually cause unpleasant feelings for us. It's not surprising that we never see any busy employees smiling at Dolina, but we're usually only there on weekend mornings or during lunchtime. Today we ordered nice pastries and coffees to go from the payment counter, and three different employees were assisting us, while simultaneously doing other things like handing out menus and seating and assisting other customers. And the credit card machine prompted us to provide a minimum 20% tip for our to-go service. We have never been disappointed with the food or drinks that we've enjoyed at Dolina. We're just looking forward to the day when this restaurant might move to a larger facility with enough parking to support their popularity. read more

Clafoutis' shoes have been filled by this wonderful cafe. Parking is still challenging, but so worth the trip. The patio was enlarged with several seats and umbrellas in the front. Service was good.

Langos was amazing, a large portion of fried bread with tomato confit and burrata, so delicious! read more

This is one of my absolute favorite restaurants in Santa Fe. I'm working my way through the menu and have loved everything so far. The menu ranges from NM style breakfast burritos to chicken paprikash with homemade dumplings. And there is always something too good to pass up in the pastry case. They also have a community table, which is great if dining alone. Parking is a little tricky, but it's worth the hassle. read more
