Chilaquiles with pulled pork, Benedict with fried chicken and smoked hollandaise, and simple breakfast with mushrooms
Laura W.

This adorable restaurant was the final meal of our recent girls trip, right on the corner of palace and canyon road. The food was delicious and the staff super attentive! We had a mishap when the server spilled coffee on 2 of our party, but it was a complete accident and they went above and beyond to remedy the situation. Even though it's a teahouse, the coffees were amazing. The chilaquiles were amazing and a big hearty portion and they have a hollandaise for the Benedicts that is like a smoked flavor- delightful!

Allegra Jasmine Burst tea, still steeping
Rachel M.

My last two visits, the service has been bad. The servers aren't able to offer recommendations or discuss the menu confidently. Maybe they can't afford to taste the food they serve? Brought two friends for cocktails. Not nearly enough bread is served with the $18 burrata appetizer, so we requested more and were unreasonably charged $5 for these 3 pieces. Ridiculous. Still a fan of the food, but if they're going to keep charging this much, the plate ratios need to be checked, and the staff need to be trained. Reservations in advance recommended.

Under cooked, soggy scone.:(
Donna S.

So disappointed in my first visit since third place changed hands. No art at all on the blank walls... and very "echo-y". Service was OK. Except the person who took my call before we came...I asked about a wait &she said "at the moment" there was no wait. I didn't think to ask about reservations because they had NEVER taken them in the past.... when we got there it was getting packed &several empty tables had "Reserved" signs on them. I took 3 friends. We didn't even eat the "fried chicken" on our (smaller than "normal") because it was SO over-fried it was hard and there was minimal chicken in all the breading. (They did take this of our bill.) The main reason we is because we loved the scones last time we were here -- these were so undercooked they were soggy. The only good part were the teas and the fried potato slices one of us got. I'll be back only for tea & the live music. Very sad. The end of an icon for me.

What an absolutely lovely spot. We were welcomed in upon arrival and seated underneath a shady umbrella. We found the menu to be diverse with plenty of options for those who may be gluten- free. Service was efficient and friendly. I ordered a latte special, which was delicious. My friend enjoyed some tea. We both loved our meals. I tried the balsamic mushrooms, which i expected to have more balsamic taste, but they were really good. We really liked the poached pears with honey, walnuts, and truffle cheese as an appetizer. We'll definitely be back. It was hard not to come back over the weekend again, but we had too many places we wanted to try.

The Santa Fe Teahouse- very upscale scene among the Art District of Santa Fe... The food is delicious and consciously made fresh. Wide variety of selections and a great outdoor patio. Protected an quiet. Ample parking. Great breakfast and lunch stop...

Red chile and tomato mussels
Angie K.

We came here for restaurant week since we'd never been before and they had a lunch menu. It's a very cute place with some outdoor seating. We sat indoors which turned out to be a lot more spacious than I expected. The service was great and our server gave is plenty of time to review the menu and answered all our questions. The food was delicious and I can't believe I've never been here before. I had the roasted carrot and beet salad and it was quite large and could have been a meal in and of itself. My main was the red chile and tomato mussels. Imagine a hearty tomato soup with red chile, this is a pretty close description. There were large chunks of tomatoes in it and plenty of good red chile flavor to make it delicious. Rounding out the three course serving was the key lime pie which was a wonderful way to round out the meal. For my beverage I tried the Sante Fe Fog (variant on the London Fog) and the menu described that tea perfectly. All in all this was a great experience. One caveat is that we had a reservation, but there was a lot of confusion around the host stand - people seem to just show up and stand in line and no one checks you in or anything so I pretty much had to walk to the front of the line and wait around a while until someone showed up to grab the next group in line to check myself in. This could be a bit better organized.

Avocado Toast
Mia L.

Super relaxing spot to spend a morning. We sat outside which gave chill backyard patio vibes. The avocado toast was solid. I ordered the Bombay chai as my drink which I also thought was solid. I got the lavender London fog to-go, and that was really really refreshing & delicious. I wish I got two lol. Service was good, but our server seemed to keep pestering to order when we weren't yet ready. The hostesses at the front were really friendly. Overall, super sweet spot in a great location if you're looking to browse down Canyon Road. Recommend!

Outdoor seating...
Kelly U.

Outdoor dining in February, how can you beat that?! This is a tea shop and bistro with an extensive menu for food and tea. We. Passed the optional set menu for our own choices. A little short on help, but it was a beautiful day during the off season. Definitely worth a try...

Lavender latte
Karene C.

When in town, I enjoy coming here. They have a great dog friendly patio. Service is quick. For this last visit, I had the lavender latte. It had a smooth taste but not much lavender. The vegetable omelette with the side salad was the best. The ingredients were fresh and tasty. The breakfast burrito was good but not the stand out like the omelette.

Jazz brunch in the courtyard at the Santa Fe Teahouse

We had a wonderful time today at the Teahouse. It was so delightful to sit outside in the warm winter sunshine enjoying our mushroom soup and sandwich while listening to live jazz. Our server was super attentive and our food and drinks were delivered quickly. I thought the cozy blanket on the back of my chair was a thoughtful touch for the winter too. The Santa Fe Teahouse is a true Canyon Road gem.

Mushroom Eggs Benedict...TDF!
Kristy S.

OMG - another TDF local spot in Santa Fe! Excellent, efficient service and very helpful. A tea menu that reminds me of a Cheesecake Factory menu (a place I throughly LOATHE!). My friend had the scone of the day that came with coddled cream and some lemon curd, along with a fancy hot tea. She loved it! I had the mushroom Benedict - holy cow, delish! Probably the MOST PERFECT BENEDICT I HAVE EVER EATEN. Comes with a lovely house salad as the side. I recommend the spicy hollandaise sauce - don't worry...it isn't super spicy. Also had one of the fruity iced teas...refreshing! HUGE OUTDOOR seating area. Support this local gem and be sure to generously TIP YOUR SERVER! Oh, and, hit the last art gallery across the street and check out the ENORMOUS HORSE HEAD "statue".

A Delicious Tea!

How is the parking? I want to take my 85 year old Mom, but she uses a walker.

There's parking right outside the door that should be relatively accessible, although with only about six spaces, it fills quickly. there's also a city lot about 100 yards away that has handicap parking... but it's on the opposite side of that lot.…

Patrons form a line to order, and signs on tables ask guests to order before settling into a table. Before we could give up and walk out, the owner/manager approached us at the Mille entrance with complete kindness, and he invited us to enter with the stroller to find seating before ordering. We were so surprised by his desire to accommodate the baby, and we accepted his generous offer, quickly finding a little corner table in the covered patio area at the back of the restaurant. Once the stroller was out of the way, I placed our orders, and we received our drinks quickly - a black hibiscus iced tea plus a creamy London Fog. Brunch followed shortly - croque Madame for me, veggie quiche for my friend, and a Nutella crepe to share. My taste of the quiche was super creamy, and the croque madame was as rich as expected. Crepe was lovely, though I wish they hadn't run out of eclairs, which are my favorite. We'll have to show up earlier next time - and there will be a next time! Thank you for the hospitality, Mille. The way you welcomed us, stroller and all, made all of the difference.

We came in here on our last day visiting Santa Fe in the summer and I'm so glad we did, as it was on my list of things to try after perusing Yelp for notables. I had a scrumptious white bean-roasted red pepper-melted cheese tartine on delicious, fresh house-made bread topped with a balsamic glaze. I think it was one of the better dishes I had while in town. It was served with an array of olives on the plate. So good! They were out of the egg salad sandwich by the time we arrived, which was something a family member wanted to try, but they ordered an avocado toast instead. Also great and served with olives. The service was fast and thoughtful. Order at the counter and your food is brought to your table. We found a great shaded spot outside for the five of us with a view facing the bustling bakery inside. Many people brought their bikes or dogs (allowed outside only) and met up with friends to eat and chat. At one point a server brought out an order of bread that we did not order, but he left it with us anyway, free of charge. So glad we got to try Sage Bakehouse and I'd definitely visit several more times when in the area!

Great place for breakfast, especially if pastries are your jam. Chai latte was delicious. Super…read morefriendly service and nice patio.

My husband ordered the Guajillo Braised Boneless Short Ribs, which were cooked to perfection--tender, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. In my case, the scallops were slightly overcooked and a bit tough, and the corn purée was a little too spicy for my personal taste. The fry bread and the Picuris salad were excellent and truly memorable. The restaurant is located inside the beautiful Hotel Santa Fe and offers a warm, welcoming atmosphere, with a wood-burning fireplace and a very friendly staff. The décor is artistic and thoughtfully curated, honoring Native American culture, which I deeply appreciated and which gives the space a unique and special identity. Happy New Year!

Also make sure to check the bill and if anything seems off, ask there! Thankfully the restaurant was able to explain the bill after we had left where there were errors (we were charged the $75 teepee fee plus a 20% service charge that included the teepee, drinks, and food). Overall though the food was good. We had a newer waiter that was unfamiliar with the process so that was aggravating but overall the food was delicious. We did the set $90 price fix menu. The quail was the best part. My fiancé was upset because his entree was cold but at least the other three of us had warm food. I do recommend if you want this experience to go just make sure to double check some items !
