2nd time the Santa Fe Foodies have dined here, this time with 10 members. We came on a Friday so we…read morecould (again), order the Fish and Chips. Five of us ordered this dish. The fish is terrific; moist on the inside, crispy on the outside, not fishy; a really nicely done fried fish. The fries were a big miss! Last time they were overly salted, and we did mention this to the staff. This time, it was worse; not too salty, but everyone was unhappy with the texture. Some thought they were frozen (they had that frozen fry texture), but of course, they were not, we were told. The taste was OK, but after a few fries, none of us could eat any more. They all ended up in the trash. Too bad because the most challenging part of fish and chips is the fish, which Rowley's does very well. Chips? Nope! You can ask for a Caesar instead, but it's rather lackluster (more later). My wife had the Green Chile Tuna Melt, which was pretty good and unusual. They use wild yellowtail to make the salad, and it was a nice upgrade from the usual. Not fishy like Tuna can be (although if you like tuna salad, which we do, that's not an issue). Had a nice kick from the Chile, nice bread, etc. We recommend this dish. Came with a side Caesar salad, which was pretty bland. It's all about the dressing, of course, and this version didn't seem to have any anchovies I could detect, nor the necessary other ingredients to make it remarkable. Could have been ranch or any other 'white' dressing. Another miss. Tried the Roasted Brussels Sprouts, which were pretty good (need more roasting), and need the bacon as a default. The version at Box Car is far superior. But not bad here, not a miss. But better We also tried the Grilled & Roasted Vegetables topped with feta. This dish was delicious! A really nice side for those who want something healthy with their fried fish. The waiter knew we didn't like the fries, so he 'comped' us dessert, which was a very nice gesture. We tried the Bread Pudding and the Mango Cheesecake. The cheesecake was way too cool, so its texture was hard and not what I'd normally expect. There wasn't a trace of Mango I could detect. The crust was nice. Not a miss, but not something I'd order again. The bread pudding was pretty good, not the best in class, but more successful than the cheesecake. Not overly sweet, thankfully, but a bit dense. Service was very good! Our server was Gerson C, who got everything right. The kitchen served the food promptly, and everyone was served at once. But overall, too many misses for me to be convinced to go back.

This was easily the worst service I've ever experienced at a brewery. From the moment we walked in,…read morethe staff was dismissive, unprofessional, and clearly uninterested in doing their job. One employee in particular was rude, condescending, and went out of her way to make the experience uncomfortable instead of welcoming. It wasn't just slow service--it was the attitude. We felt like an inconvenience the entire time. For a place that's supposed to be about good vibes and hospitality, this was the complete opposite. I won't be coming back, and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone expecting even basic customer service.

Ambiance: we had settled into Santa Fe after a few days in Pagosa Springs. Honestly, our experience hadn't been the best. Changed hotels three times, a few other things were making us feel we had made a bad choice coming to SF. Then we walked into SFB, and my daughter said, "ah, we found our people!" The vibe. The energy. The people. All of it was the starting point of turning our entire trip around!

I'll be dreaming of this burger! My husband and I each got one. The tater tots side was a huge amount and they were seasoned to perfection, super crispy. The coleslaw had a delicious flavor and cut through the heartiness of the burger. 5 stars for Second Street Brewery just for the Alien Burger!! Eat it, right now! The beers were a range of great to OK. The brown ale was our favorite! The bitter was very good. The two hazy IPAs were not great... When we arrived, the service experience was pretty confusing. We were told to order from different people, our server was overwhelmed with a big table, so we ordered from the bar. But the server excused himself and was really cool in the end. There's tons of seating inside, and an outdoor patio, so this is a great spot for groups. And we got to meet the Chef, he was so nice!! Gave him massive compliments on the burger ;) We will 100% be back to Second Street Brewery when in Santa Fe, I'll be fantasizing about their Alien Burger until then!!

They don't bring out chips and salsa for the table, which is 78% of the reason to even go to a Mexican restaurant rather than making the food at home. Pity because it actually smells good. Edit: My son ordered the chicken enchiladas suizas, took four bites, and declared himself done. When I tried his refried beans and immediately had to spit them out, I understood why. Honestly, how is this place still in business? Refried beans shouldn't taste like Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuits.
