Entrees were the fish special - I can't remember what the fish was, but it was very mild and my husband loved it. I had the scallops and as I do not like chipotle sauce, the chef made me the lemon butter sauce on the side. This combined with the polenta was absolutely amazing! The scallops were small but perfectly seared. We were too full for dessert, so we will be back before the end of our trip! Thank you for a wonderful meal.

My main disappointment the food is overpriced. The pasta dishes were pretty good, but not nearly $30 worth.

That kind of hospitality makes the whole meal feel elevated. I had Le Flor, a gorgeous pink gin and elderflower cocktail that was as lovely as it was refreshing. The mussels with green sauce and dipping bread were an absolute must-order -- we could have made a meal out of that alone. The mango gazpacho with honey drizzle was bright, unexpected, and delicious. We also loved the chicken thigh skewers, which were flavorful and tender without being fatty, served with a beautiful yogurt smudge on the plate. The grilled eggplant with capers and manchego was another favorite, and the jamón croquettes were crisp, savory perfection. Creative food, thoughtful service, and a warm Santa Fe atmosphere. La Boca is the kind of place you leave already thinking about what you'll order next time.

First impression was solid--the place has a nice atmosphere, clean setup, and a good vibe. Customer service was friendly too, so no complaints there. But at the end of the day, we came for the food...and it just wasn't there. I ordered a Caesar salad that never showed up, and the pizza was just meh. Not terrible, not inedible, just nothing that made me say, "Damn, I need to come back here." Especially when you're craving a good wood-fired pizza, you expect it to HIT. Service and atmosphere can definitely carry part of the experience, but they can't carry the pizza at a pizza place. Two stars for the food. Nice place, good people, but the kitchen missed the mark for me.

The menu is limited, so you know you're getting something good. There was one salad and approximately 7 pizzas listed. We ordered one half pepperoni and cheese and one margherita. Both were amazing! So thin, the bread so soft, and saucy. The pepperoni were salty flavor bombs, and the margherita was tangy and cheesy. Would come back many more times.

For the entree, my wife had the diver scallops with lobster and black "forbidden" rice. I had the duck dish. Both were very good. Our wine with dinner was a 2022 French Burgundy. It went well with the starters and entrees. We finished with a really nice key lime pie. It was one of the best we had. Not too tangy or sweet. Just perfect. We would definitely come back again when in Santa Fe.

I ordered number 2 to pair with my (incredible) FRENCH ONION SOUP If you have that on your menu I have to try it but this was truly exceptional ! Following that I had the New York Strip. Medium rare. GREAT but I did ask for a side of Green Chile. And Garlic Aioli for the potatoes Nicely cooked but I added some salt and chile to make it pop my taste buds. YES.

Our first visit was on a Monday night, and our server was fantastic. Forgive me for not remembering her name. I should have saved the receipt. As starters we ordered the bacon wrapped dates and the bruschetta. They allow you to choose four different toppings for each piece of bruschetta which is really nice because all the toppings sound so good. To drink, I had the minimal intervention wine flight, and my husband had the hatch green chili margarita. I enjoyed my flight, especially the Chenin Blanc, but can't lie, I was a little envious when my husband's margarita arrived! The bacon wrapped dates were tasty per usual, but the bruschetta was outstanding! We did not finish the bruschetta because we also had an entree coming, the Pasta New Mexico. It was everything you want pasta to be with a good kick from the hatch chili and red pepper flakes. We left fat and happy! Later that same week we came back on a Friday night, and it was hopping. It looked like there were two major big parties happening which initially concerned us that we might not make it out on time for our event that evening. However, we believe our server got our order to the kitchen before putting in the big one! Yay! And our order was the same as Monday night because we enjoyed it so much. The only thing different was my drink. I got that hatch green chili margarita, and it was super refreshing! Our food came out of the kitchen at a decent time, but we did notice that the bread on the bruschetta lacked the toasted/grilled texture that it had on our first visit. Maybe the kitchen pushed it out too fast or there was a different chef that night. It was still edible but not outstanding like it was the first time. Like most places, it is slower at the beginning of the week and very busy come the weekend which likely affects the quality of what you get. But overall, I think it's a solid place to drink/dine. If I get the chance to visit this city again, I will definitely come back.

The starters,…read moresoups, and salads appealed to me (and my girlfriend was minimally hungry), so we shared off that portion of the menu. The lamb tartare was expertly prepared, and perfectly complimented with housemade potato chips (seasoned, very crispy, and the right amount of vinegar). The ratatouille was phenomenal; very flavorful (both the veggies & sauce), perfectly cooked veggies, and some crispy kale. The steak tenderloin stew was excellent, and I appreciated that the Christmas chile sauce was on the side so you could add it to taste. The meat was tender, the stew had a good flavor to it, and the chile sauce brought it to another level. My girlfriend loved the green chile pineapple sorbet. It had a lite chile flavor, and wasn't too sweet. The orange blossom tres leche cake was outstanding, with the cake and meringue cooked to perfection (both with great consistency), and the lowkey orange blossom flavor complimenting things very nicely. We ate at the bar, Ben the bartender was a great server. His notes on the dishes were informative and accurate, and he also recommended some places in and around Santa Fe for us to checkout... Have dinner here. You'll be happy you did. And you might want to sit at the bar.

I've been hearing about Joseph's for some time, and on my most recent visit to Santa Fe finally visited for dinner. It was the meal of the trip. The restaurant itself has a charming neighborhoody feel with several rooms, wood beams, local art, and adequate spacing between tables (one of my pet peeves is the lack of privacy caused by tables too close together.) The food. Oh my. Food should not bring me this much pleasure... It's an award winner, so call ahead.
