    Nothing I like less than waitstaff who doesn't know the menu well. I am extremely accustomed to East Coast hospitality , it's different here but the service was efficient just not particularly chatty or informative about the menu. Central location in downtown Santa Fe with very reasonable prices. I ordered the green chile pesto chicken sandwich, nothing particularly different about it .. the chicken was a little dry. Nice ambiance though and great location.

    I came here to drink some margaritas, not to eat. We sat at the bar, ordered and enjoyed our drinks. The crowd was slim, there was a party at a table, a couple sitting next to us staying at the hotel, two men at the other end of the bar. The margaritas were good, I ordered a more crafty one while my GF ordered a house one. The basic one was better than mine and that kinda ticked me off. How can this be? Anyway, the ambiance was OK, we asked for to-go cups but that was not allowed. OK. Bye.

    One of the two glasses of the house margarita we split. We also had another glass worth in the shaker!

    We had a great experience at Del Charro! The stuffed sopapillas were my favorite of the trip. The house Margaritas was the best value for drinks I had the whole trip! I split one with my wife and they gave us the shaker. I wanted to go back multiple times for the margaritas and suggested it every night! Too bad there were too many other places people wanted to try.

    We wanted a green chili cheeseburger and were sent here by another bartender. The drinks are huge and strong. I liked the prickly pear one. We both had a green chili cheeseburger burger. The meat was fabulous. Perfectly cooked, Smokey, juicy, fatty. Everything I want in a burger. The green chilis could have been hotter for my taste but they were flavorful and there were lots. I'd definitely go back for the value and flavor. Worth hitting up for a cocktail. Great location. Clearly a locals favorite.

    Went in for lunch on a Saturday, it wasn't too crowded and there was no wait to sit. Our waitress was friendly and helpful. I ordered the stuffed Sopaipillas, which were very tasty, my husband ordered the carne asada tacos which also were very good. Warm friendly atmosphere. Highly recommend

    One of the few places I found open at 8-9PM. I got the stuffed green chile cheeseburger. The burger itself was very good, but that green chile relish was amazing! I was also raving about the fries. There's a certain type of fry I like, and that was it. If I could get a plate of fries with 2 ramekins of that green chile relish to use as dip, I 100% would.

    Del Charro is the restaurant connected to Inn of the Govenors, the hotel we stayed at while vacationing in Santa Fe. I wanted to love it, but really I loved the atmosphere, liked the margaritas, and didn't much care for the food. I went to Del Charro for drinks twice, dinner and drinks once, and breakfast three times, as they serve the free breakfast to hotel guests in the dining room each morning. We went to Del Charro for margaritas as soon as we arrived in Santa Fe, as we waited for our hotel room to be ready. My friend ordered the house margarita and I had the prickly pear. Both were good, and not too sweet. The house margarita is large in size, and has a good balance of mixers and tequila. I loved the atmosphere. All of the locals seemed to be drinking there at that time, and we were able to chat with some different people. Breakfasts were made to order for hotel guests, and we were given a choice of about 6 different options. I enjoyed it the day I chose the omelette, but the other days I found it to be greasy. When we had dinner there, I used my Yelp check-in order for free chips, salsa and guac. That caused some trouble as they had no idea what I was talking about. Also, strangely enough, in Santa Fe, restaurants seem to charge for chips and salsa. In the end, we were able to get free chips and salsa, but no guac. I also thought that the chips were broken up and messy on the plate. I'm glad we did not pay for them. My friend and I both ordered the enchiladas, which were served with rice and beans. We ordered the sauce Christmas-style (red and green). What we received were plates of food full of sauce that hid what we were eating. We couldn't really differentiate the enchiladas from the sides. It was sort of messy and the flavors all ran together. I also had one margarita there just as I was waiting for my ride to the airport. Again, the drink was good. They played old school country, which felt very fitting for the atmosphere. It felt relaxed and peaceful in the bar. All in all, I would recommend Del Charro for drinks. The bar is a nice place to sit and chat. I would describe the food as passable.

    Located inside Inn of the Governors, this saloon-themed restaurant offers a spot for both locals, tourists, and those just passing through town (like me!). We were at an event at Meow Wolf, and since it was late, we found out on Yelp that Del Charro's kitchen is open late (they're open until midnight, though I'm not sure exactly when the kitchen closes). We sat in the dining room (complete with a fireplace), but there's also bar seating in the saloon area. Food ranges from caesar salad and nachos to chicken enchies and burgers. My colleague went for the stuffed green chile cheeseburger (it was huge!) and I ordered the chicken nachos (also yuuge). Service was verrry slow, and no one really checked in during our meal... I had to close out my tab with another server on our way out. :/

    I don't give five stars very often, but this was a very special and unique meal. My niece has…read moreeaten hair and she highly recommended it so we made reservations for 5 PM. We were warmly greeted and we're happy. It was on the quiet side since they weren't busy yet. By the time we left, it was busy! We really enjoyed our server, Paris. He was warm and seemed to take a general interest in us. I shared my concerns with him that my pallet doesn't tolerate much spicy. He at all. He assured me there would be no problem in accommodating that. He started us off with a complementary prickly pear & lemonade drink which we loved! He also provided a complementary appetizer which was very unique and made out of avocado and mascarpone and some other items I don't remember. Why I didn't love it, I did enjoy hasting something so unique and different. We started with the best cornbread I've ever had that shaped like a cob of corn with three different kinds of butters. The cornbread is $12 and worth it! Next came the Caesar salad wrapped in some kind of egg roll wrapper and topped with an anchovy mixture. We split it so we each got two rolls which was plenty. We very much enjoyed the flavors in the salad. Don ordered the Wagyu short rib with polenta. While we don't love polenta, this was tasty and complemented the beef nicely. Don said this was the best short rib he ever had. I wish I had a picture of how they presented it. When they took the lid off, there was a lovely steam cloud and it smelled wonderful. I had scallops with each one placed beautifully on top of of really interesting wild rice and finished with toasted coconut. The pineapple salsa and the Hoja Santa Fe Oil were placed in small rounds in the middle of the dish because they had some kick to them. What was especially impressive, is the gentleman who brought out my meal leaned over and said that the Chef wanted to let me know that the two items in the small dishes had heat to them, but I was encouraged to give them a try for the full flavor. Impressive! I was able to enjoy the pineapple salsa, but the oil was a little too spicy for me, but I'm glad I tried it. We would've loved to try dessert, but we were fully satiated by our delicious meal. It was quite an experience and we look forward to returning.

We…read morewent for Taco Tuesday; you can get $2 beef tacos, which many members did and said were very good. However, I decided to go with an appetizer I've never tried, the Bang Bang Shrimp, which was dynamite! You get four very large, crispy shrimp in a sweet-and-spicy sauce, though I didn't find it spicy, if that's a concern for some. The sauce was very tasty; the shrimp had great flavor, were plump and tender, and they were indeed crispy. This went very well with the arugula under the shrimp. I'd order this again in a second. I then had two tacos à la carte: Baja Fish beer-battered cod and Carnitas. Both were very large and excellent. The pork on the Carnitas was indeed crispy as it should be, and the cod was perfectly fried and delicious. My wife had the Asian Tuna Noodle Crunch Bowl: seared tuna, lo mein noodles. The dressing was superb; the Tuna was perfectly seared raw, and all the items that came with the salad (mango, red cabbage, daikon radish sprouts, kale crunch, edamame, cilantro, peanuts, toasted sesame) made for a lovely and delicious meal. Our server, Tony, did a fantastic job of keeping us all happy. My only 'complaint' was that Boxcar doesn't serve their amazing Brussels sprouts, or at least not all the time. Not on the menu. I told Tony and the manager how much I love them and was told it may come back as a special from time to time. Man, the Boxcar Brussels sprouts are amazing! Boxcar has very, very good food, and I would usually avoid what appears to be a 'sports bar,' but James Beard Foundation-recognized Chef Eric Stumpf will please the foodies every time. What is nice is that Boxcar has several seating areas, so if you're into food and not the 'bar scene,' they can seat you in an area that is quiet.

First time that I been offer that. Would not go back again.

The restaurant itself is beautiful. We loved the interior décor, the comfortable seating, and the warm, romantic atmosphere. There was plenty of seating, and the full bar offered an impressive selection of cocktails, wine, and spirits, making it a great place to enjoy a drink before or during dinner. We started with the Seasonal Shrub, a refreshing watermelon-cucumber soda, and a perfectly balanced Hugo Spritz with elderflower, ginger, lemon, mint, and tonic. The Tuna Tartare was incredibly fresh, the Street Corn Velouté was rich and creative with red chile popcorn and lime crema, and the Seared Crab Cake was packed with crab and cooked beautifully. For our entrées, the Prime Filet Mignon and Cowboy Ribeye were both cooked to perfection and paired wonderfully with whipped potatoes, peppercorn demi, and sautéed asparagus. The Roasted Chicken was just as impressive--juicy and flavorful with confit potatoes, bacon, mushrooms, and a rich chicken jus. We finished with two fantastic desserts. The Bourbon Pecan Bread Pudding with salted caramel was warm, decadent, and unforgettable, while the Berries n' Cream with pistachio crumble was light, fresh, and the perfect ending to the meal. Market Steer Steakhouse exceeded our expectations in every way. The quality of the food, attention to detail, warm hospitality, beautiful ambiance, and impeccable service made this one of the best dining experiences of our trip.
