On my way through town, I was pleasantly surprised that the establishment prepared fresh pupusas…read more I ordered two pupusas, one green chili, and one cheese. While I waited, I was served chips and salsa. The food was freshly prepared, and the staff was courteous. It was perfect for this cold and rainy evening. The restaurant was clean, had plenty of parking, and was easy to find from the hotel. It has a laid-back, casual atmosphere that is popular with the locals. As I was leaving, customers were pouring in.

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!

La Boca was a standout Santa Fe dining experience. Our server, Jonathan, was exceptional -- he…read moreimpressed us right away with his extensive knowledge of at least five specials, plus wonderfully nuanced details about the wines and cocktails. 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.

This was my personal favorite dining spot we patronized in Santa Fe…read more I am very partial to small plates and there were plenty to choose from. I suggest mixing in an item or two from each section of the menu so you can experience tapas from each part of Spain. Extensive wine and sherry list adds to the authenticity although the girls reported that their sangrias were outstanding. Service was spotty and the only reason it's not 5 stars.

Another pretty great find…read more.. An unforgettable dining experience at Sazón in Santa Fe with the legendary Chef Fernando Olea, a James Beard Award winner. Meeting the chef made the evening even more special! We enjoyed the incredible Pulpo, the famous Sopa de Amor, crispy Pork Belly, the unforgettable Enmolado de Pato (Muscovy duck with sweet potatoes and Chef Olea's signature mole), and ended with the iconic Dulce Sinfonía dessert. Every dish was a masterpiece of flavor, artistry, and passion. If you're visiting Santa Fe, Sazón belongs at the top of your list. Wonderful Ambiance! Must be dressed at least business casual. #SazonSantaFe #ChefFernandoOlea #SantaFe #JamesBeard #FineDining #Foodie #PrettyGreatFinds

Hmmm...food was not as impressive as the first time. This…read morewas our second time at Sazon--my partner brought me here for a surprise birthday dinner. The atmosphere is upscale and beautiful--love the decor and artwork. The service was on point; our server was friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive. The food this time was just ok, except for the Sopa de Amor: Chef Olea's signature soup--that was heaven in our mouths. The steak (Popocatepetl: spicy black pepper crusted aged angus beef tenderloin / red cabbage and snow peas in cilantro vinaigrette / jasmine rice) we shared looked nothing like the description. Either our server was clueless regarding gluten-free, because this wasn't up to our standards for a high-end restaurant--the flavor wasn't the same as we remembered from several years ago, and the steak (medium rare) inside was colder--not room temperature, so I ended up not eating all of mine. Plus we had to ask for rice--which should have come with our meal since there isn't flour or any ingredients that would have made this harmful to me. Also, the side of asparagus it came with wasn't bright green and crispy--it was yellowish and flimsy-looking and tasting. For the price, this should have been more on point than what it was. We had split a steak, shared a soup, had a bottle of wine, two glasses of champagne, and a dessert--oh, and a $12 split change (something they suggested--even though my partner and I were fine eating from the same plate)...the bill was almost $400 with tax & tip. The dessert however, was presented beautifully with mixed berries and a liquor which was then lit on fire--a festive dessert option since I have a gluten allergy. There are so many wonderful restaurants. Unfortunately, the food did not leave us craving to come back for more. If the service and decor wasn't so impressive, Sazon would have received one stars.

The staff were extremely nice, and the restaurant was a great mix of families, older diners, businesspeople, and visitors. We will likely come back.

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!
