    We were a party of four for dinner. We chose the prefix menu with wine pairings. It was fabulous! The food was sublime and the wine pours, generous compared to my other previous experiences, were perfect for each dish. The house special margarita is a must have- we got a small serving at the beginning of our meal. The service was friendly, knowledgeable, and very professional. This is going to become a regular spot each time we visit Santa Fe.

    We had the paella and burger special along with a toast with ham, cheese, and peppers. Everything was amazing. The paella was piping hot and very fresh. The burger was the best I’ve had in a long time and the toast was a decent size. Cocktails were delicious and very well mixed. Tapas for desert was a perfect end to the meal.
