Solid hotel breakfast.... Met a couple colleagues here before our work event, and the breakfast was good. Got a couple cups of coffee and the omelet. Subbed potatoes for the fruit, which were fresh. Omelet was good. Got it with bacon, onions and green chilies. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Services was friendly and efficient, and good amount of space.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Will be back the next time I stay at La Posada read more

We were pleasantly surprised by our experience at Julia's. We ordered the bread service, the bone marrow, the shrimp empanadas, and the Birria short rib. The bread service and the bone marrow were great, although $22 for a single bone did feel steep, and I believe the bread was supposed to come with 3 butters and we were only served 2. The shrimp empanadas were delicious, but too spicy for us. The birria short rib was wonderful, and the polenta it came with needs to be highlighted as well! The service was kind, but very slow despite the place being essentially empty. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Another detail we found funny was that the music kept stopping and randomly starting again.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Overall a great experience and we will definitely be back! read more

Interesting food (bison burria over polenta) was very tasty. The salmon was cooked well and also tasty. They brought a complimentary appetizer which was good although now we can't recall what it was. Something with crisped onions on top. The "cup" of posole was more like a bowl and satisfying, and a little too filling to accompany a meal unless you're a hearty eater. The food was a little slow to arrive, but maybe that's the price of having it prepared well. Service was friendly enough. Prices are not inexpensive but not through the roof. We were too full to eat dessert which was a shame because they looked good! Breakfast was a tad pricey for what it was. A modest-sized fruit plate was $23. The omelet was good but most places can knock out an omelet without messing it up. Good food, not inexpensive, but a nice break from the usual fare in this tourist area. read more

Our breakfast was delicious but pricey. Thank goodness for complimentary breakfast cards. Make sure and ask the front desk for one. I had the skillet hash and is was delicious. The atmosphere is nice and has a cozy fireplace that you can sit by while you eat. The very small glass of orange juice is $8.00 so look for your drink prices. Service was excellent. read more

I don't understand the negative reviews, maybe they are old? I had a 5 day stay at La Posada (the hotel where Julia's is located) and I ate at least one meal a day at Julia's, truly enjoying each and every one of them. The filet mignon with truffle mashed was delish, cooked perfect (loved it so much I got it two nights in a row). The cucumber jalapeño marg was my fav drink. The grain bowl for breakfast was a great healthy start to my day. The vibes in the front bar are so fun, historic and great art on the walls. Every server I had was attentive and friendly, giving me great recommendations for where to explore. I'm picky, and I thought this place was great! read more

We arrived very late to the hotel property and thankfully this restaurant was still open. We started off with some fabulous bourbon on the rocks and an Old Fashion. The waitress brought us a complimentary soup in a short glass. It was to die for!! A creamed zucchini soup that was full of flavor and perfection on your tongue! We then had a Cesar salad and the beet salad. They were both lovely, fresh and crisp. We decided on the tacos which were legit and made correctly per traditional recipes and the salmon. All the dishes were beautifully presented and we were thrilled to have such a delicious dinner after such a long commute to the hotel property. The next morning we had breakfast to start our day which was colorful and filling. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The decor is bright, cheerful, clean and crisp with a fireplace that provides a perfect warming glow.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

It was the book AMERICAN GHOST that brought us here and the name derives from the woman that lived here. Interesting history and great ambiance. I wish I could be equally complimentary of the food, but based on one exposure, I'd describe it as average food, overpriced. Just come for the ambiance. read more

Fatima and Eric the bartender are both great!! I highly recommend the poblano pepper...yum!! My husband raved about the ossobuco and the pecan caramel cheesecake.

Based on the reviews I was hesitant to eat here. I was totally surprised by how fantastic the staff are here. The food was exceptional as to be expected at a Marriott. I had the classic breakfast but I subbed out the hash browns for pancakes. They where able to do the small child pancake with blueberries or chocolate chips. We arrived early so it was not too busy. The staff here are kind of limited in the amount of people working. Even relatively understaffed they work very hard to take care of all the people dining here. I am sure it can take longer when it is busy but it is not any fault of the staff. read more

Entrees were excellent. Service was amazing. Amber took care of us and was awesome with our kids.

This dinner exceeded expectations for a hotel property. The meat was cooked perfectly and the sauces were compelling. Service is prompt and fun. Expected to come in for convenience and left with one of the best meals of our trip. read more

Julia - A Spirited Restaurant and Bar - Filet and veal with chef's plate half eaten - New American Near Me - Santa Fe, New Mexico

LOVELY SETTING -- Very disappointed in the management of this restaurant. :( We wanted to go somewhere to sit outside for brunch & we passed by this hotel & decided to give it a try. We ordered "olive & roasted vegetables $11" -- we got a small bowl of olives (she seemed VERY surprised & a little put out that we asked for the vegetables, which is the REASON we ordered... we had to WAIT while the kitchen COOKED the veggies...once they came out they were bland...won't order again.. THEN, on the bill, it charged $12!?) The Green Chile Stew was tasty, but a BOWL came with ONE tortilla. It is not enough for how much stew there was... I would expect that a cup would have 1 tortilla, but a bowl should have (at least) 2, in my (hungry!) opinion. :) When I questioned the bill, one of the wait staff said that he'd noticed on other occasions, for example, that an omelet said it had mushrooms but regularly didn't & that there were other items people had complained about the wrong amount being charged. Apparently, management had been told but the system has never been updated with correct prices. read more

Lovely outdoor patio on a beautiful evening. A little pricey but good food. I had the New York Strip Steak cooked medium very good but should have asked for medium rare and told them to hold the sauce. The apricot margarita was excellent. Not too sweet with just a hint of apricot. I loved the birch tees next to the patio (my favorite tree) and they even had wisteria blooming. read more

Ate and drank here a few times over 4-days at hotel. Menu not extensive - but anyone could find something to fill a crave. Salads, soup, sandwiches, burgers, wings and breakfast were all fresh and tasty. Breakfast and brunch service was solid- and friendly. Not inexpensive- but consistent with the area. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice outdoor sitting as well.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Julia has gotten had reviews here, but my experiences have always been pleasant. The staff is always friendly. It never seems to be busy. Food is delivered quickly. I haven't always felt that the food is the best that you can have in Santa Fe, but it's a foodie town, so that is a challenge for most places. This afternoon, we had a late lunch on the patio. I had Christmas tamales and a fish taco. The fish taco came with a spicy chipotle sauce. The tamales, as the name suggests, came New Mexico Christmas style. The pork was in a red chili sauce, and there were both red and green on the side. The food was delicious and the spice crept up on me. My wife enjoyed her southwest salad. She said it was so good she could have had another for dessert, but we went with the chocolate bourbon bread pudding, instead. read more

Service was excellent, the drinks were good. Gentleman Jack and Coke and a prickly pear margarita. They had a fantastic live band playing Cuban music. The Mr ordered the Julia burger with Swiss, bacon, and caramelized onions and he enjoyed it. I had the chicken nachos with a side of queso. The queso was no bueno...Very similar to Taco Bell. While the potion was huge, the flavor was not. read more

It's Restaurant Week in Santa Fe!! The Julia Restaurant lives up to that nicely. We were lavished in the most comfortable setting with three outstanding courses for lunch. It started with the right size arugula salad with ripe cherry tomatoes with a light nice vinaigrette. Followed by a main course of mouthwatering rib eye steak (perfectly cooked), shrimp, moist crisp spinach and mashed potatoes. The meat was only outdone by the most wonderful spinach. Last but hardly least, was a chocolate mousse with raspberries on top. The chocolate sang a yodel from its Scandinavian roots. We could not have asked for a better representation of Santa Fe Restaurant week. Bravo my Julia. Thanks for reading. Avram read more

My husband and I stopped in here for a few drinks on Christmas. We ordered our first round and we were charged an additional $2 dollars more for my drink. My husband questioned the bartender about the price difference and the bartender was like...ohhh yeah that is wrong and changed it. My husband and I checked to make sure our additional few drinks were priced accordingly. The drinks I ordered were just okay and way overpriced. I am not sure about the food but the mountain of nachos were a big hit amoung the other patrons. read more

I am so sad to have to write this ,but I must. What a complete disappointment! ! 2 beautiful , lovely women totally ignored by 3 young bartenders, while eating at the bar on Saturday night. I chose not to address the situation during my meal as I didn't want to ruin a lovely evening. My friend said ,at one point, " they are totally ignoring us" .That's not the Santa Fe I know and fell in love with.My steak had so much fat on it ,I left 10 pieces on the plate. My friend was enjoying hers throughly and again I didn't want to " Harsh our Mellow" But it was eating at me.. Pun Intended... I called 2 days later and calmly spoke to the manager , complete disappointment #2. After patiently listening to my respectful, disappointing recount of my experience at his Restaurant, he said "I'm so sorry but our computer is down and I can't offer you a refund" ( I didn't ask for a refund) " I'll be happy to take care of you next time,I'll give you my personal number "( which he didn't). What I would have appreciated was any gesture of good faith, a $25 gift card with a nice note. They're charging $40.00 for steak fritte, and serving $20.00 cocktails with terrible service ,I would expect them to right a wrong and appreciate the locals who support their business! P.S . the hotel staff were completely charming and gracious!! read more

Absolutely loved Julia's. We came last night for our anniversary and sat outdoors I. The beautiful patio. It was lovely and the waitress was very sweet and helpful - we felt very attended to. I had the salad and had them add shrimp to it. I had the citrus non alcohol cocktail and it was wonderful in a cold brass mule cup - so cool! My husband had the chile and the other warm salad and was very impressed. Need to mention the beautiful decor and artwork in Julia's - it feel like a plush art gallery/home inside. We will definitely come back! read more

The food was good. Drinks great. Service was exceptional. They should really change the music. Boomer soft rock oriented around three bands: The Eagles, Steve Miller Band, and Steely Dan. The most non-risk taking music you could ever hear. Kind of ruined the ambiance for me. Not spirited at all actually. read more

Let's talk about a beautiful day. My wife and I eloped this morning and we had reservations in which we called ahead to say we were going to be about 30 minutes late. The staff at the front (female) said, "that's not going to be any problem. We show up and the very problematic, extremely rude and pessimistic manager named Jason says to us, "we're going to need you out of here by 7 o'clock because we have another party coming to this table." the nerve, unprofessionalism, extreme disregard and disrespect we were shown by Jason.... Was unbelievable. To imagine he has been chosen to be a manger of this beautiful place is a disgrace. Please don't waste your time, money, or happy moment IF JASON IS PRESENT The front staff does not communicate and it's very obvious JASON is full of it. Sorry about the power move you thought you were showing. All I see is a restaurant manager who cannot handle the business. Jason and staff do not communicate, are cold and rude. I was married today and this manager Jason made EVERYTHING, completely made our wedding dinner insignificant with his comments and completely unprofessional with his words. Completely disappointed in the restaurant we were recommended. read more

We went at the recommendation of the resort checkin. Maybe we went at the wrong time of day but this was awful. Servers were kind but the kitchen and bar did not deliver. I had the grain salad which had no actual grain (farro). It seemed they substituted edamame? The chicken I added to it was very obviously old or maybe even frozen. I've never had a soggy chicken breast before today. My husband had tacos and they were ok, but my chicken gave us pause for those too. They did a great chicken finger and fries for my child. The jalapeño cucumber margarita came out with none of the listed ingredients and the base tasted like the cheap store bought kind. The remake they did was even worse - suddenly in a pint glass instead of the former low ball and still had no tajin. We didn't make a stink and just paid and left but it's such a shame. The courtyard is beautiful and could be amazing. Hopefully the stay at the hotel is better! read more

I really really wanted to love this place. We went here to honor Auntie Julia...Alley loves her Auntie. The hotel and restaurant is very nice but.......the Auntie Julia's namesake, the Juliarita was lack luster. The bar tender stated "you got the last one for the night....i can't make anymore." Honestly he couldn't make this one. All one could taste was the tequila and nothing else, no apricot anything. Instead of being honest and giving us the drink for a discount he charged us full price!!! We love our Auntie Julia, in this life and her last but sorry, we won't be back, we will honor her ghost by leaving her favorite brownie in front of her favorite haunt. I love you Aunt Julia - Alley read more

Service was absolutely horrendous. I realize there is a shortage of workers right now, but if you can't serve people, don't seat them. We started out ordering drinks and after an inordinate amount of time, we went over to the bar ourselves. Ordering and getting the food was another ridiculous amount of time. Service took so long, the table next to us simply left after ordering and not getting anything. If you go, plan on a few hours to finish your meal. On the bright side, the setting on the patio was beautiful. The food was pretty good too, but not worth the non existent service. read more

We stayed at the hotel, La Posada during our trip for 4 days. The service was decent; friendly staff and low occupancy. The food; easily the worst restaurant I've eaten at in the past year and certainly the worst hotel food I have ever had. Breakfast; the burrito is microwaved scrambled eggs and potatoes (not fresh either) in a flour tortilla. The eggs and ham plate was the only breakfast plate I could stomachs. You really can't mess up two eggs and a piece of ham. Oh you can? Yes, it was $16 for two eggs a piece of ham and clearly microwaved potatoes. For lunch, the meatloaf was edible and so was the burger. Still, nothing to be desired. The food quality tastes and looks like it was ordered from a mass distributor, Sysco, pre made, heated and served. Also noted, the NY steak is $20 for lunch and $28 for dinner. Exact same plate, however. read more

Julia - A Spirited Restaurant and Bar - $16 - New American Near Me - Santa Fe, New Mexico

This review is for what I call the Staab House, a bar in this hotel with an English library decor. It started our first night out in Santa Fe, and brought me down more than when my Doc told me I would need Cataract Surgery. Service at the bar was cold, deadpan and impersonal. The patrons appeared snooty, Waspish preppy, very Episcopalian (Whatever that means), and they looked right through me as if they were SS, and I was a Jew living in Warsaw in 1940. We were not welcome at the Staab House. That was quite evident. We quickly downed our drinks, paid our bill, and took off with a large sigh of relief. I had escaped the Gestapo and would live another day, never to return to the Staab House, Julia's, or this hotel. read more

Lunch: Reservation system was down, no biggie; not too busy and we were seated immediately. We had just checked into the resort and we had a simply amazing lunch outdoors. We ordered two tacos, the pork stew, lobster Mac-n-cheese along with two different nicely sized and delicious margaritas. Service was great and the food was even better! Dinner: Far from the same lunch experience. Reservation system was still down and it appears that we may have been given someone else's table. Good for us but not so good for them. Waitress was prompt and courteous. We ordered drinks (cocktails for now and wine to come with the meal), appys and our meals. Appys were fantastic! 30 minutes from the time we ordered, we were told one of our main courses was no longer available! Unclear why this was not known when we ordered...that's when the wine I ordered to come with my steak came. We decided to simply share the steak as our main course. Oh yeah that glass of Cabernet (although a proper full pour) came in the smallest glass imaginable, just not what we would expect from a restaurant located within the La Posada de Santa Fe. We cannot say enough about the food, the chef is on point! If they can simply get the other parts of the restaurant to step up, it will become a goto spot in Santa Fe! read more

Having been here many times before, I thought thanksgiving dinner would be great. It was terrible! We had to wait over an hour past our reservation. The food was adequate, but very flavorful, service was slow and dreadful, we were never even offered dessert from the fixed menu. The manager adjusted the bill only after I complained. Don't waster you time, So many great options in Santa Fe that will enhance you visit. read more

A very nice place to eat especially outside in summer. Make a reservation to insure there is a table for you,

Could have been better... for the price!! Plates are small with no carbs. Scallops plate at $32 was literally 3 scallops with ten tomatoes and sauce. Ask for bread or they won't bring it. Arugula salad was tasty - we replaced with romaine. Roasted chicken was dry - about as tasty as a grocery roasted chicken - grilled romaine was awful & with no taste green sauce & beans - interesting combo? Waiter never checked on us after our food arrived? There was a wedding party so that could have been an issue... The entertainment and location was really quite lovely. The jalapeño margarita was surprisingly good. For $100+ I'd stick to a salad, appetizers and drinks. read more

Staying at La Posada so we decided to try Julia's. Not a very good choice on our part. The service was horrible and the food was just OK. There were 5 of us including one child. When the food was delivered they only delivered the two entrees and two appetizers. The salad and the chicken tenders was delivered about 5-10 minutes later. Needless to say the first round was not hot just lukewarm. read more

The food is okay, but the service is lousy. Even worse, when I asked to speak to a manager, some employee who was clearly not a manager came out and basically implied that we were trying to get free food by complaining. There are a lot of eating options in Santa Fe, no need to eat here where you're treated like a criminal for complaining about service. read more
