The topped the burrito with green and red sauce... delicious!!! The flour tortillas were warm and soft awesome. As for the service... not good! The bartender is a rockstar, but the other server was not good. Forgot to give our drink order, forgot we asked for water, and forgot the beer I ordered. Actually, the food made up for it! Give ECT a try if you're in the Santa Fe Plaza area.

Walked in at 850 pm Saturday night was forcefully told that the restaurant is closed and the waiter…read morerudely escorted me out. Would never come back again. ============= This review got flagged by Yelp HQ, let me rewrite this and be clear of what happened. I walked into El Callejon Taqueria and Grill, located on 208 Galisteo St Santa Fe, NM 87501 on Aug 22 2026. It was on a Saturday night, right before 9pm. This was my first weekend in the city of Santa Fe, on both Yelp and Google this location shows the restaurant closes at 11pm. When I walked in the bartender told me that it was closed. I wouldn't care that a business is closed before the listed hours; it was the way the bartender went about it. He could have politely told me that the kitchen was closed, and I would not have had any problem with it. He walked up to me within arm's length and continuously repeated "sorry we are closed" multiple times while getting closer to me. It was one of the worst experiences I have had to get escorted "asked" out of a restaurant. The experience was not good. To be clear I never get to try the food here.

The thick cafeteria plates are hot when they arrive at the table. For today's lunch, I ordered an enchilada plate, swapping out one of the enchiladas for a chile relleno. My oh my did that hit the spot. The chicken enchilada was delicious. The chicken was moist and flavorful. The plate came with some posole, beans, and red and green sauce. I did not have a margarita with lunch, but have had margaritas there in the past. They're fine, though nothing spectacular. Do yourself a favor and skip the long line at the Shed.

When order arrived, some of it was temperature hot (stew, taco) and others temperature cold (enchilada, chile relleno, which was on the same plate as the taco). Very strange. Brought the issue to the attention of staff and replacement items were provided, this time all fresh and hot. 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 discovered Tomasita's on a recent visit to Santa Fe, my first time in New Mexico. The first night…read moreI ordered takeout from UberEats, and it was so delicious that I went back several times. The sopapillas with wild honey butter are nothing short of divine. I also loved the frozen margaritas (I couldn't be convinced to order the swirl, even after raves, because the frozen margaritas were THAT good.) Foodwise, I tried the ground beef burrito and an enchilada plate. Both were really tasty. And, despite the busy vibe, my food and drinks came promptly. All of this is worth the few downsides you get with this place. First, it was crazy busy both times I was there: very few seats at the bar, 20 minute waits, and slightly frenzied staff. One man took my name, promised a five minute wait, and then disappeared. Never saw him again. I also got a bit of attitude from the bartender, as if she only liked locals. It made me uncomfortable, to be honest. As I said, though, the food and drink make it worth it. My favorite restaurant in Santa Fe.

Took my out of town family here for dinner. We arrived about 6:30 to a waiting group of at least…read more100 people. Added my name to the waitlist with not much hope of getting a table. 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.

Located just off the Plaza in Santa Fe, The Shed is a long-standing institution that's hard to beat…read morefor a quintessential New Mexico dining experience whether you're a local or just visiting.. offering food that's very tasty and very reasonably priced, an very casual ambiance that's very casual, a charming space with a rustic, historic courtyard and maze-like layout, and service that makes you feel right at home. 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!
