Very disappointing. Music so loud we couldn't have a conversation. We asked them to turn it down 4 times. Awful. Food was OK but you can get much better in town. It's certainly not up to Four Seasons usual standards. read more

Unfortunately, as amazing as this establishment is, after a fraudulent $178 charge on my Amex.....ONE WEEK LATER. After two days of contacting them and receiving apologies, but little action, I'm still at a loss as to why/how this could happen. I understand a "soft hold" for a day or two after our meal, but one whole week after we dined here? c'mon kids, what kind of clown show are you running up there? Really hate to do this review b/c the food & service is so good, but I'll never be going back after that experience. Buyer beware~ read more

We decided to use a Travelzoo voucher for the meal. It was a wise decision. The value for the meal was outstanding. We applied the wine allowance to a bottle of wine which was an excellent decision. The branzina was delicious, though I would have added a bit more spinach to the dish. My wife had the lamb chops which came out a little underdone, but were returned to the kitchen and came out perfect. We will be back! read more

Had Thanksgiving dinner here. This place is off the charts. 5 Star Food at a 5 Star resort. Traditional Thanksgiving Dinner with "seconds". Complimentary wine was served as table was a few minutes late. Great ambience. Good service and people nice and friendly. Nestled away from the main town this is a true dining experience. Great Bar with local art and menu items that you would never see. A must. read more

Amazing!!! Beyond words: loved everything. About it.!!!the food was excellent. The chillaquille was just sooo flavorful and all the ingredients were fresh and savory. I would love to be able to visit New Mexico again and come back to this place read more

My boyfriend and I did a cooking class with Chef Marco at Terra restaurant. We enjoy hands on cooking classes and this was one of the best I've ever done - you are in the middle of their commercial kitchen where all the action is. Marco taught us to make chicken, incredible mole sauce, perfect rice, and homemade tortillas. He was so personable, inventive, fun, and patient. We had a blast and learned a great deal. We also really enjoyed our visit with their Executive Chef Andrew Cooper who was delightful. Check with the Four Seasons to see when they are doing the next one. We will certainly do this again and the price was more than half of what other cooking schools charge. read more

See all

TERRIBLE dinner. 4 of us went for dinner on new years eve. The meal was terrible and service was poor. I could not tell if they were short staffed or just spent much of their time out of the dining room. The lobster bisque, well wasn't. It was some sort of soup. The broth might have been made with the shells. But there was no lobster in the bowls we were served. The Waygu was maybe 3 oz and mine had something tough on two sides that really could not be eaten. The only accompaniment appeared to be a baked sweet potato with a round cut off. I did not detect any seasoning, no sauce, nothing. Just a plain round of sweet potato. What they called an opera cake was a dried out 3/4" wide piece of cake with minimal filling and a topping of flavorless chocolate that had to be broken up to eat. The champagne toast that was part of the fixed price was brought after we ate, after we paid (where they accidentally charged me twice the amount due) as we were leaving. Who drinks as you are leaving to drive home. We clearly did not matter. but they wanted $1000 for the pleasure. I cannot tell you how disappointed we were. I cannot imagine ever going back. read more

We ate here the night that of our wedding and it was delicious. Since it was New Year's Eve, there was a pre-set menu, but it was great. The service was exactly what you would expect from a top tier property. The dining room is amazing - warm and cozy. Although the resort is a bit out of town, it is well worth the short trip. read more

This place is as good as it gets, the service is not quite up to the experience and this slight is not fair but for those that expect service to equal food, be patient as it's a new place so this is really unfair, but the food is the best, even breakfast, the scrambled egg's were delicious, but the dinner was beyond expectation. and this place is new, I can only imagine once they get their rhythm going you better make reservations even if you are staying at the resort, the chef even come to check on your dining experience and the dining manager is a Santa Fe local but his qualification is worldly, beware though New mexico prohibits bringing your own wine, though there is a way around it, for guests only I suppose. I'm from california so we expect everything :)) read more

We ate Thanksgiving Dinner here and had a great experience. We did have to wait about 15 minutes after our reservation time, but that was what the bar was for. service was great, attentive but not annoying. the food was excellent. I would go back if I am ever in Santa Fe again! read more

Best service, amazing food, gorgeous atmosphere. Met the chef and the drinks were awesome...completely in love with this restaurant!

Staying at a condo near by, we went over for lunch. Beautiful view but the highlight of our meal and the reason for the five stars was the cocktails, which we found out later were concocted especially to be in a contest. My smoked green chili martini was the absolute best drink I have ever tasted and now nothing will ever compare and I will be forever disappointed! Food was good - I had the crab stuffed chili relleno (delicious) and my BFF had the fish burger (she wasn't overwhelmed) and a specialty cocktail that she loved. read more

Simply amazing. Top quality restaurant. Absolutely amazing food. We were so enchanted after spending a weekend at Encantado, we had our wedding here. Everyone said it was the best wedding cuisine they'd ever experienced! Highly recommended. Try the pancakes for brunch, the fish or beef for dinner, and don't forget to order a "may" cocktail, to die for! read more

I went for lunch on a Tuesday at 1:00. After examining the very limited menu I ordered a caprese salad. It was $16 and was tiny. Certainly not enough to qualify for a meal. I also had iced tea. The total was $22. I didn't notice how much of that was sales tax, so I figure the tea was $3-4. There were only two other tables occupied, so not a lot of folks are going there for lunch. Beautiful place, though. read more

My husband and I ate at Terra on June 24, 2012 and had an amazing time. First, you can't beat the ambiance of this restaurant with its stunning views, particularly at sunset. It's a simple, no fuss decor, but elegant and relaxing at the same time. After watching the sunset while we ate, we enjoyed drinks outside by the fire pit afterwards and saw more stars then we've ever seen before! Second, the drinks and food were outstanding. There were vegan options already on the menu (love that!) and I didn't have to veganize anything. With the transition to the Four Seasons effective July 1, the menu isn't listed on their website right now (not that I could find at least) to look up and mention here specifically what we ate, unfortunately. The entree I had was just out of this world - it had some crispy kale and asparagus in it and it was amazing. Finally, our server, Craig, was terrific. We can't wait until we are in the Santa Fe area again to stay at the Encantado and enjoy meals again at the Terra! read more

An excellent dining experience. Many places in Santa Fe try their hand at seafood, but Terra delivered. The tuna tartar was excellent. We tried several different menu items and were pleased with each plate. Service was top notch as well. Don't let the casual attire fool you. read more

Hands-down some of the best food I've had anywhere in the US for its price. Could put it up next to many of the elite restaurants in New York or SF. Takes the elements of the southwest, such as green chiles, adobo, and buffalo meat, and incorporates them into some classic American cuisine. We ate there several times while staying at Encantado and if you can only get two things, you must absolutely try the buffalo tenderloin and the mac-and-cheese (perhaps together even!). One thing to note - if you do eat there, be prepared to take your time. The service is quite hands-off - fine if you want to enjoy your company but it definitely has the pace of a southern Mediterranean restaurant. Don't expect the meal to last only an hour! Had to take one star off unfortunately because of one meal we had, where my girlfriend received a cold plate and the other item she ordered came out incorrectly prepared. The maitre d' was very apologetic and reduced our bill, but for the price you pay at a place like Terra, you should expect flawless service. Still would be happy to dine there again though, if only for some more mac and cheese! read more

Beautiful setting. Chicken was tiny and a bit dry. Obviously it's a beautiful place and the food is nice but I will drive into Santa Fe to all the amazing restaurants available. read more

The food was delicious. The service was atrocious. We had to ask for our drinks, bread and water. There was a 45 minute wait before our first course and after that was cleared another 15 minutes before our mains. We had to ask for water refills. There were times there was no one on the floor. Tables around us that came later were served before us. read more

We were at the Four Seasons for a week, and got married there at the property. We ate at Terra a couple of times and loved it!!!! The bone in steak was out of this world! We invited friends who live in Santa Fe to come out and enjoy dinner with us one evening, they were impressed! read more

Absolutely great place to eat. They run a little slow, so don't go if you're in a rush. I used the groupon special for lunch and it was great. Easily the best posole in Santa Fe! Great for business lunch or even a date. Beautiful scenery and views from the restaurant. read more

Absolutely breathtaking Sunset! Our service was impeccable. Denzler made my stay extremely pleasant! I recommend anyone staying there that they have the chance to encounter her. Thank you again. I am so excited to return. God bless you! read more

Food is incredible. Go for dinner. Everything is made fresh and local. They are exploratory in their use of different flavors, making the food incredible. The venison was incredible with a chocolate sauce and blackberries. Fried kale was a new twist that was very odd to me but my friend liked it. I applaud the creativity. Even the bread and flat-bread they give is amazing. They have cheddar cheese biscuits and a delicious crispy lavash. The wine list is very nice and they have everything from affordable to insane ($30-$10,000). The whole property is kept nicely, though you can never tell if that is the case because Santa Fe decoration is just weeds. They put a lot of care into this establishment and it really lives up to the Four Seasons name. read more

We came in on a Saturday just before noon and absolutely loved it. We had our puppy with us so we sat in the patio... The staff was very welcoming to our puppy(huge plus). The view from the patio was gorgeous. We started with the queso fundido which was excellent. My fiancé and I shared the terra burger and it was more than plenty. Without us even asking our waitress brought it out to us already divided and on two plates, way to go for being more on top of our needs than we were! We had the burger medium rare and it was perfect. I wish we could have checked out the Sunday brunch spread but we will have to give that one a try next time we are in town. read more

Great ambiance, but the main courses were disappointing. Chicken was dry and nothing exceptional about the other main courses (between 4 people). I recommend coming for a drink and sitting on the deck, but find your main course somewhere else. read more

Worth the trip out of town for the view, great outdoor dining and food. Larry the bartender is fantastic.

Chef Andrew and his team are delivering at the top of their game as evidenced by the recent recognition by the James Beard Foundation. If you want a truly unique experience, try the chef's table for a wonderful time. read more

5 stars for not only the exquisite food but for the amazing service. Craig, our waiter went above and beyond! He was charming, helpful, and a delight to have as our waiter. The server assistants were phenomenal as well. We had purchased a Groupon which was a marvelous deal and well worth it. Great way to spend the evening! read more

We recently had a 5 day great spring break stay with our two daughters. After skiing for a few days, we we preferred room service each night. The food was wonderful - room service and Terra Restaurant on our last night. The only complaint we had was having to call for a restock of firewood each day for the fireplace. This should be a part of the daily service without having to call as a special request. We stay at Four Seasons across the globe and are never disappointed. We plan to make this an annual spring break trip. read more

Very expensive for breakfast. Most restaurants in Santa Fe do both French Toast and Huevos Rancheros better, and charge a lot less. Don't know about lunch or dinner. read more

We have loved brunch at Terra in the past but on our visit yesterday there were a number of problems with the service and food that disappointed us and make us hesitant to recommend Terra as we previously had done. One main dish came out of the kitchen a full 15 minutes before the other two and it was not as described on the menu -I had been looking forward to the broiled Humboldt fog cheese on the salad but it was a cold slab straight from the refrigerator. I mentioned this to the waitress who said that was the way it was supposed to be! My 2 companions had to wait because of what was described as a kitchen mixup and when one dish arrived the poached eggs had clear whtes; the waitress took it back saying "they must have been in a hurry". For a top notch restaurant these missteps should not have occured. read more

My husband and I had a spectacular dinner and breakfast at Terra while we were staying at the resort. We are both relatively new vegans (although I have been vegetarian most of my life) and they didn't make us feel like we were a problem, rather they delighted in taking on the challenge of creating unbelievable tasting menus for us for both meals! We have eaten in many of the "top" restaurants around the world and have now added a new name to our list of the best. New Chef Andrew Cooper is not just a talent, he is a genuinely nice person. The Four Seasons is so lucky to have him and we can't wait to return to Santa Fe to eat more of his amazing food. We were especially impressed by his desire to use and grow local food. Terra is head and shoulders above the other fine dining restaurants we have tried in SF, we said when we come back, we might just eat all our meals at the resort! read more

Went to Terra for Thanksgiving last year...one of the most mundane, boring, tasteless meals I've had in my life. Turkey was dry, stuffing was tasteless, desserts were dry...the champagne was great, though, and I'm glad there was a lot of that. The first and second courses, and desserts, were laid out buffet-style, which is tacky for a resort of this caliber. Nothing special--cheese, fruit, cocktail shrimp. Boring. The four of us are all cooks, and we all could have done better by cooking at home. Even more so, I was a little embarrassed when the check arrived...more than $400 for the four of us. And this isn't the first time I've had a poor/weak/whatever you want to call it experience at Terra. The first time the waiter forgot my salad...so I had to wait 20 minutes for my food while my husband ate. Then they got the order totally wrong. Kind of baffling for a resort like this. But, hey, the place is stunning...eat at the bar or on the patio during summer and fall...amazing sunsets. Heard that the executive chef, Charles Dale, was fired...maybe there's a reason for that. Tried it once, not a good experience. Tried it again. Even worse experience. But I'm the eternal optimist and I want to see places in Santa Fe thrive, so I'll try it again iwth a new chef. What really cracks me up is The Reporter ranks Terra as one of the best in town in its restaurant guide...they've obviously been treated to a lot of free food and alcohol to come to that conclusion. No real experienced food writers there... read more
