I like when that happens :-) baskets o' chips, bowls o' salsa, icy waters, and drink orders and not long after some bean dip shows up amid the lively conversation and muted overhead... foods arrived screaming hot and fancy; plating looks a bit above the actual price point which is always a good thing. My steak ranchero came out as advertised; standard thin cut ribeye - seasoned southern style and cooked through - served on a bed of grilled onions, peppers, and tomato with ranchero and queso sauce on top plus tortillas, beans and rice beside... so good rocks margarita represents well; nothing particularly noteworthy since it's well liquor but it would be nice to be able to sub blue curacao for triple sec because, well, you know... blue! but mainly I just don't want to see any mistakes and I didn't. yea!!

The meal included choice of rice and beans--I chose white rice and black beans. The menu is extensive with many appetizers, quesadillas, steaks, enchiladas, combination plates, and kid's meals. Then there are the House Specials! Desserts include fried ice cream, sopapillas, and churros. Pepsi products and Jarritos, no alcohol. Prices are very good, and Mary's service was perfect. Restroom was very clean. I hope this restaurant gets enough attention so the people of St Clair (and passersby like us) do not lose out!

Awesome service, menu and food.

I highly recommend trying it to see for yourself. My sister ordered fish taco's and I ordered carne esada taco's. We shared one with each other which made the meal even better for variety. Both were excellent and the green salsa and lime was good.

We decided to try out Santa Fe Mexican Grill tonight. We tried to order lemons with our drinks…read more(water and tea) but were told that they do not have lemons. We had four children in our party and are accustomed to Mexican restaurants providing a beverage with children's menu purchases. This was not the case here. No complimentary beverage for kiddos. Chips and salsa were not brought to our table until after we had ordered, and even then we were provided with only three small bowls of salsa for our party of nine. Another thing we are accustomed to at Mexican restaurants is bottomless chips and salsa... however, when we asked for more salsa we were told that it was customary to give three salsas per party and extra salsas were an extra charge. We asked for spicy salsa, and a tiny cup was provided for $2.99. The meal prices were fair, but the serving sizes were small. We were the only people in the restaurant so service was quick. The restaurant was clean and comfortable. The salsas had good spice and were enjoyed by all... we only wish they were bottomless.
