So, five stars for fixing the problem, though issue presented challenges in different people eating lunch at different times. This is one of the best historic restaurants in Santa Fe. They sponsor the local rodeo, which I appreciate. So of course I'll be back even though this lunch experience wasn't ideal.

I was told the wait was an hour. Not sure we believed it so we ordered takeout from the car. By the time we finished our order and paid for it, we get a notice that our table was ready. YIKES !!! Ok, so we went inside only to find an almost empty waiting area. This was about 8pm. What did they do with ALL those people???? We were guided to a table and noticed there were a few more empty tables. What did they do with all those people??? Found out it was International Film Festival weekend. So my advice is check the events page for Santa Fe and DON'T GO DURING AN EVENT. However, Tomasita's is a legend and a must so GO. And you might even find a few of those missing people.

This is a simple family restaurant with red booths and a no frills plastic booths filled patio. We were pleased they had a liquor license! Turns out it was a great choice for dinner, even though I didn't have a huge appetite tonight. No chips and salsa for free in this town, we plowed into drinks and entrees instead. Our server was a patient and relaxed young man, happy to take my order and then let me change it before he left the table. The $8 sangria was huge and boozy, in a sweet and very good way. Dos XX bottle came with a chilled salted mug and lime. Prices were reasonable. Our server was excited to serve me my first Frito pie ($9) with red chile, no beans, it was the perfectly sized smaller portion meal for me with no leftovers! I ate all of it, then maybe had a little regret. I wish I had ordered Christmas style to try both the red and green sauces, but the red was pretty spicy and I felt it the next day. Covered in lettuce, tomato, cheese and sour cream, it doesn't look like much on a plate but I am a big fan of Frito pie now! Husband had the Grande combo with beef taco, cheese enchilada (red), chicken tostada, rice, posole and beans. This is where Valentina's shines! The tostada chicken was extremely tender and moist shredded meat in a fluted blue corn tortilla cup. The cheese enchilada was gooey and perfect, the red sauce dark, rich and earthy. The beef taco crispy and satisfying. It seems in NM that posole is served with everything, feels strange to this Arizona gal to have hominy and pork as a side. It isn't super flavorful but its traditional, so we picked at it. This plate came with a flour tortilla to boot, overkill! Rice and beans were solid contributors, but this was a huge plate and a struggle to finish! In the end, it ended up being one of our most economical and memorable dinners in our week in Santa Fe, thanks Valentinos!

As we pulled up, it looked pretty crowded, a few families waiting outside. I checked on the wait time for 3 & was told 20-25 minutes. We don't consider that an excessive wait time any time we go out. And being from out of town, it would've taken us at least that long to find another spot & probably would've had a wait at any other restaurant. There was plenty of space to wait in front of the restaurant, it was shaded and the weather was nice. I don't know how long we waited for a table, but it seemed to be less than quoted. Once seated, we were served drinks right away. The staff was very friendly and attentive. I ordered blue corn cinnamon pancakes with a side of bacon. The bacon was cooked crisp, just how I like it. The pancakes were really good! Different from anything I've had before. My husband had chilaquiles, those were really good. And my son got a traditional breakfast. The menu said it came with fries, which were more what we called breakfast potatoes. That was a good thing! Those potatoes were so good! The restaurant looked to be well staffed, everyone working and taking care of customers. This is for sure a place I'd recommend and would return to on future visits to Santa Fe.

We were not able to score one of the coveted reservations for dinner, so we braved the walk-in queue in the courtyard, which actually moved quite fast -- with a wait time of about 45 minutes for a party of two on a weekday night. The menu features all the classic New Mexican flavors you'd expect, from enchiladas to burritos, and the kitchen is happily open to accommodating most dietary restrictions. At our server's recommendation, we split a bowl of the Vegetarian Posole ($9). While it was packed with corn, butternut squash, green chile, and garlic, we both agreed it didn't quite live up to the massive hype. On the other hand, the entrees completely redeemed it. I thoroughly enjoyed the Tamale Plate ($18.50) -- two tamales (your choice of red pork chili or green veggie chili -- I did one of each) served with beans, Spanish rice, and a side of red or green chile that packs the perfect punch. My dining companion loved the Fish Tacos ($17.25), which came loaded with sautéed cod, avocado, cabbage, and a beautifully citrus-forward pico de gallo. Both of us thought the portions were filling without leaving us feeling stuffed and the flavors were completely spot on. Overall, a great 4-star experience with wonderful flavors, great value, and solid service despite the chaotic dinner rush!
