We stopped in for lunch and stayed for the gluten free dessert. The food was very rustic and had more soul than the utterly forgettable fare in the downtown Santa Fe plaza area. Go here before you plunk down a bunch of your hard earned money on some generic Tex-Mex/New-Mex/Mex or some pretentious lounge that refuses to sit you if you don't look like a jeweler.

A Santa Fe Treasure - Tune-Up Café…read more Diners like cafe's varied menu, which includes flavorful Salvadoran dishes, delicious pies, and numerous gluten-free options. They also highlight the reasonable prices, generous portions, and the cozy, authentic. I had the Chile Rellenos, and "amazing" feels like an understatement. They were perfectly executed: the chiles were tender yet held their structure, the cheese was beautifully melted, and the batter was light and golden without being greasy. What really sets them apart is the depth of flavor in the sauces. Whether you go red, green, or "Christmas," you can taste the authenticity and the quality of the ingredients in every bite. It's the kind of meal that makes you want to slow down and savor it, yet leaves you planning your next visit before you've even finished. Between the incredible service and the standout flavors, Tune-Up Café is easily one of the best culinary experiences in the city. A must-visit for locals and travelers alike!

On the bland- mild side of flavor and spice ... not bad food... just not the umph I was looking for. *Picked this place because I was more interested in trying out El Salvadoran food- and in retrospect should have checked the menu...and I was disappointed to learn they didn't have papusas (apparently only at their food truck) or for that matter a lot of El Salvadoran dishes. *Portion sizes of the entrees were good (not so much for appetizers) and prices a bit steep for some items.

We sat outside on the patio and enjoyed the fresh air, the blue skies and sunshine. The service was excellent- very attentive and friendly. Johanna made sure we had everything we needed. We split the Jalapeño Bites with ground beef and the Salvadorian Tostados. The food was 100% delicious and beautifully plated. Large portions so we couldn't finish all of it - which meant a great snack for later. Highly recommend this restaurant!

Dear fellow Salvadorans, rejoice, for I have found one of the best pupuserías in town! I love the…read morefact that it's close to the Salvadoreñan store--it makes the visit even more special. Las pupusas estaban muy sabrosas; we ordered loroco con queso and revueltas. They come fresh off the griddle, three pupusas for $12, with curtido and salsa on the side. También tienen aguas frescas, which paired perfectly with the meal. The ambience adds so much to the experience--it feels cozy, welcoming, and authentic, almost like being back at my mom's kitchen. The staff is super friendly and helpful, which made us feel right at ease. Although the wait was a little longer than expected, the fresh, made-to-order pupusas were worth every minute. I highly recommend this place to anyone craving a true taste of El Salvador. Next time I'm in town, I'll definitely be ordering more to go!

The restaurant itself is very cute and cozy but it did feel a little cramped in some corners. As for the food, I have a gluten allergy and am pescatarian so I decided to get the enchilada with the chorizo tofu, without green chile because apparently it has gluten in it. I liked my food but that layer of cheese was THICK and it did overpower the rest of what was inside of the enchilada a bit. It wasn't the best enchilada that I've ever had but that's not to say that it wasn't still tasty! Overall, cute restaurant with decent food in a good location and friendly staff!
