    Foreground: granola
    Max G.

    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.

    Baked eggs and Langos

    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!

    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.

    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.

    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!

    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

    *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.

    Salmon Tartine
    Heather F.

    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.

    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!!

    there aren't any to make. Just show up and wait! enjoy!

    I heard they closed? If they did, does anyone know what happened to the pastry chef?

    They were open in April and doing quite well. I don't know if something happened after that.

The inside is dirty and uninviting but I was needing a place right away so I committed. The carrot cake looked really good so I asked the girl for a piece. She was very odd. She started at me as if she couldn't believe someone asked for the carrot cake. She said something I couldn't understand. My friend jumped in to help but she just looked at him too. So odd. Eventually she handed me a styrofoam container with carrot cake in it. I also ordered a small Americano. The Americano was good and the carrot cake was good, but it was a small piece and not worth $13! I asked for the Wi-Fi password, but the other girl working in the counter also kind of stared at me and shrugged her shoulders. I asked again she said "I don't know it" I tried to ask the other girl and she said"we don't know it because no one's ever asked for it before". I said, "but you're a coffee shop and the Wi-Fi is there for guests. We just need the password." And she shrugged her shoulders and walked away. I had to do my Zoom call on my phone walking down the sidewalk because I wasn't staying there.

Ordered the honeybee (espresso with honey,…read morelavender, and steamed milk) and the very last pastry in the case--a blue corn lavender doughnut. The latte didn't do anything for me...it was overly sweet without really tasting of honey or lavender, and was too thick or something. The doughnut, however, was a different story. The blue cornmeal gave it a really nice texture--a bit crunchy, and the icing had actual lavender, not just flavoring. Best $2 I've spent today! They also have Hagen Daaz, for those who are into eating ice cream when it's 33° outside.

Cafecito has been showing up on my reels and it looked like the kind of special I wanted. Just a few steps away from the Railyards, this place seems to be in its own island, in a quiet corner.

Staff took a little longer than I expected to take our order (or I may have been veeeery hungry). However, our order came quite quick! The hubby ordered the Santa Fe and Carne Empanadas with lentil soup. I ordered the Gaucho to get some range. The empanadas were quite good and tasty. They were on the medium size, well packed with protein, with a nice and soft pastry. The Santa Fe had very fragrant green chiles and good seasoning on the chicken. The Carne had an amazing taste on the wagyu with a bit of spice and sweet with those peppers. The lentil soup was thick and tasty with every spoonful. The Gaucho, unfortunately, was not as successful as the empanadas. The sourdough was thinly sliced and perfectly toasted, pairing well with the butter and quince jam. The provolone and tomatoes were confusing, but they were well portioned. The eggs were fluffy and ok, nothing to die for, just well executed. The flank steak relied a lot on the chimichurri, which added great acidity, but without it, the steak did not have its own seasoning or flavor. It was satisfying, but the visuals tricked me into thinking it was going to blow my mind. Overall, this is a nice space to hang with friends for a special occasion and enjoy some tasty options. I'm interested in returning to try other things. I like when a place sparks my curiosity.
