    Mac with peas and shrimp
    Stephen L.

    Food is tasty but basic comfort food. Takes awhile to get the food from order to receipt. Owner is very nice. Food had cool spots in it when served. Very filling - ordered the smaller size and couldn't eat more than 1/3. We did get light diarrhea the next day but I am not sure if this was the source or not. Protein included seemed a bit skimpy?

    Yes, when you are in Santa Fe, New Mexico, you should eat Southwestern food, but we had been indulging for several weeks and needed a little break for lunch. Mac Santa Fe was the perfect spot. Located down a few steps in an indoor mall, there is a few seats in the eatery and up at a bar, and there are tables in the middle of the mall to enjoy your Mac and Cheese. Mac and Cheese seems pretty easy to make, but it takes the right chef to make it the right way. Mac needs to ooey gooey cheesy goodness and to many times there isn't enough cheese and it is dry lacking even the basic salt. But not at Mac Santa Fe. We ordered the one pound container to split and it was the perfect amount for two. We chose the Santa Fe Mac, it was pasta cooked to al dente, just the way we like it, topped with a crunchy bread topping, it had roasted green chile and Monterey and Cheddar cheese. It was spicy, but on overly so. The sauce was creamy and cheesy. Located in downtown Santa Fe, it is a great find when exploring the downtown shops.

    Large lobster mac! So good... 6/26/2024

    I have two young daughters, so when I found Mac Santa Fe I knew I would score brownie points with them... It's a sit-down restaurant in an indoor mall with mostly mac and cheese dishes. On June 26, 2024, we ordered: + 2 sodas ($6) + Billy the Kid grilled cheese with tomato soup ($22) + Green Chile grilled cheese with tomato soup ($20) + Large lobster mac ($36)! So good... We had leftovers to take to our next destination. Our guy gave me a bottled water on the house. Both employees we interacted with were super friendly and quick to get our order out. I just wished our grilled cheeses weren't grilled so long. The slightly burned taste was there. This place is small, but humble. If you're new to Santa Fe, New Mexico, come here for the Zozobra artwork. The Four Corners flags on the ceiling. The quirky Breaking Bad picture and other oddities scattered throughout. The code-accessed restrooms were a short walk nearby in the same building. I parked in the lot across the street. It was $4 for 2 hours. Like most Santa Fe parking spots, they are on the small side.

    We were visiting Santa Fe from out of state and decided to give this place a try for dinner as we were looking for some cozy comfort food. Service was excellent. Super great. We both had grilled cheese (with green chilles) and the tomato soup, Sandwich was tasty, soup could have been like 15% warmer. Also it was bit cold inside as well, but not terrible. The food and the service still made for a worthwhile visit.

    According to yelp they were open for business. Closed!!!! What a let down especially when it states that it was open.

    The dudes that worked here were probably the coolest people we encountered on our visit to NM...this mac n cheese smacked but that tomato bisque?!! made me regret my decision to order the mac n cheese in the first place! Thanks for the recommendations of the non-touristy places!

    The grilled cheese menu.

    Okay, so I thought the sandwiches were a bit pricey but my friend had eaten at another restaurant that specialized in grilled cheese snd she said they could be worth it. So we went there and she ordered a grilled cheese with jalapeños, sriracha, and chorizo. It was stuffed with chorizo and she was happy. I, on the other hand, ordered the macaroni and cheese which I thought had a great price point, It had chorizo and bacon and it was very cheesy plus had a great cracker-like topping. Bottom line was we were all full of cheesy goodness and happy! We were treated well by staff who were super friendly and the food did not take long to get. Win, win, win!

    Literally the best mac & cheese I've ever had. And the Santa Fe one with green chile is absolutely perfect. Very hardy portions at a great price. And the people working there are super chill and friendly. Highly recommend!

    A bit hard to find because it is in a mall but it's worth it - cute ambiance, friendly staff, and the menu looks exciting but I really felt like the food was just fine. We liked the Santa Fe - the chile was fun (because we're from out of state - I don't think it was special) but the cheese and pasta were not anything noteworthy.

    Mac and cheese with garlic shrimp. Delish!!!

    The Mac is good - particularly the lobster Mac. Good for take out or to sit at the counter for super casual eat.

    We're repeat customers at Palacio and have had an outstanding experience every time. Food, service,…read moreambience, never disappoint. Located in a quieter part in the edge of downtown, parking is usually pretty easy to find on-Street, and it's a few steps over to shops. The outdoor patio is secluded and quiet, and the indoors offers plenty of seating in a historic setting that's bright and fresh. On the food side, Palacio cooks their red Chile for over 8 hours, making it in my opinion one of the best and most flavorful in Santa Fe. Most other places I get Christmas style, but here, the red Chile is just perfect. On this trip, we had a smothered breakfast burrito and enchiladas suizas. Both were perfectly cooked, served hot, and resulted in another visit of what we expected from Palacio - great food and friendly service in what had quickly become our favorite Santa Fe restaurant.

    Great local spot to grab some local Santa Fe breakfast. I ordered a traditional breakfast with…read moreeggs over medium, bacon and potatoes. However, something must've gotten lost in the translation because I was served an omelette, Christmas style (meaning both red and green chilies, and it was simply delectable service was outstanding other than the confusion on my breakfast order, which the the server apologized multiple times for messing up my breakfast, but at the end of the day, it was actually a blessing because what I received was much better than what I ordered Ambience wise... The Restaurant was not that busy but had a nice quiet vibe to it. Made for a very enjoyable lazy morning. Coffee was standard fare and very enjoyable to go with my breakfast. My dining companion went a more healthy route with granola and yogurt and said everything was very tasty
