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.
