Food was great! The Fancy Rainbow Roll was really good and a delight both esthetically pleasing and…read morealso very tasty. The other specialty roll we tried was the Green River roll which was pictured on the menu but not listed on the menu. This one actually came with 10 pieces of sushi which was a great deal for sure. Service was great and fast. We ordered a total of 4 rolls and they staggered the delivery of them in such a way that we were able to enjoy them and not feel overwhelmed by the amount of sushi pieces that we had to eat. This way they were also very fresh as soon as we were ready to enjoy a different roll. The restaurant is located inside a shopping center building and while it's an older building the restaurant itself was clean and inviting. We were quickly able to sit down and proceed with ordering our food. Give them a try if you're in Santa Fe. Tasty and fresh ;)

Located in the Santa Fe Plaza area, Sushi8 was a decent place for some basic rolls…read more They are located in one of the indoor mall areas that I had never been before, but there was a dumpling Café and a Boba spot right next to the sushi. We ordered to go, but I totally would've hung out in this area. I will know we ordered online and our order was delayed about 15 minutes past what was posted. The rules were very basic, but they were good. I wish they would've had more sauce on them. The portions were great, a solid rice to fillings ratio.

El Nido is one of my favorite restaurants and I go there frequently, always enjoying the food as…read morewell as the service. The rationale for the one-star rating of this review is related to the bartender's lack of professionalism during my recent visit. I had a question about the price of the wine I ordered, but instead of being polite and respectful in her response, she was condescending and rude telling me I should have checked the price on the menu as she (again) placed the menu in front of me. I agree that I should have checked the price, but the manner with which she responded to me is my issue. Unfortunately, I do not know this bartender's name, but in my experience the other bartenders are always pleasant and accommodating; however not this night (August 8). My important caveat, however, is to go to El Nido and enjoy the fine food!

Geronimo doesn't really need another five-star review, but our experience tonight was so lovely…read morethat I am writing this. The goodness began with Naomi, who helped me fix an error in my reservation and get a table at a good time tonight. The goodness continued with our server Mitzi, who should be teaching graduate classes in hospitality in every big city. She was friendly without being overbearing, informative without being pedantic, subtle and gracious. Now, the food! My wife chose the vegetarian tasting menu and I had some of each dish: so very flavorful (a green salad with pears, a life-changing mushroom bisque [and I don't like mushrooms!], a chickpea croquette with pickled artichoke hearts and ratatouille, and a substitution of the lemon crepe for three yummy scoops of sorbet and gelato. I chose the scallops, perfectly cooked and moist, over couscous, and a dish of tasty sauteed baby spinach. A wonderful experience, and not overpriced, and everyone treated us sweetly. The musical soundtrack was swinging, and at a compassionate volume. Our first trip to Santa Fe, and we found a gem. Hooray! And thank you, Mitzi!

This was our last dinner out in Santa Fe and was the best dining and culinary experience here…read more Everyone told us this is the best fine dining in the entire state and they were correct. The interior is classy and very comfortable. We were seated at a nice comfy corner booth. The soft music in the background was soothing and just noticeable enough without being a distraction. We were served complimentary flutes of local sparking wine and a fresh baked bread basket and butter to start. We then ordered cocktails and three starters. First was a split plate of the endive smoked duck salad with a warm bacon vinegarette. Wow...this was nice and refreshing. This was followed by the crab dumplings with fresh corn and peas and lobster sauce. Delicious! The final small plate was seared foie gras on top of banana bread toast. This was very good. I miss foie gras. Unfortunately, it's banned in California. They had a 2023 Sea Smoke "Ten"Pi ot Noir on the wine list. This is one of the best Pinot Noirs produced in California and not easy to find. This was a no doubter and we ordered a bottle to pair with our entrees. My wife ordered their signature elk tenderloin for redemption because the restaurant the night before failed at executing this. I ordered the tomahawk pork chop. This was cooked to perfection with a nice thin crust on the outside and a perfect very light pink juicy center. We ordered a side of brocolini that was pan roasted with shallots and butter. Everything was very good and Michelin grade in our opinion. Lastly we ended the evening and split the tiramasu type of desert. My wife had the expresso martini and I had an 18 year old Glen Morangie scotch neat. The service was excellent and worth the splurge. This is a must when visiting Santa Fe.

First the service - we ordered and got our food served to us! The food! Wow! I ordered the Beef Noodle Soup and soup buns! So so delicious!!! The owner shared his story of moving to Santa Fe after being in New York but covid happened. His wife and daughter along with his parents were arriving soon! We were so happy to learn about his story and happy that he was going to reunite with his family! The place is within a plaza area with other businesses. It's cozy and lots of seating inside and outside of their business but still indoors. I would love to return back to this place and support this business. I wish them much success!
