There is a small bar inside but no bar seating so you must wait outside. They text you once your table is ready so we had time to walk around nearby. The restaurant itself is charming and cozy. Service is swift and friendly. My husband I shared the chicken enchiladas with green sauce and the chorizo burrito with green chile sauce. Both were so fresh and delicious. I didn't taste a hint of oil or grease. The dishes tasted home made. The green chile sauce wasn't as spicy as I prefer but still had a little kick to it.

The shrimp and the vegetable appetizers were kind of ehhh. I did love the green chile stew. The enchiladas were good but nothing special. I also got a paloma and it was strong. Definitely tasted mezcal but not much of the other flavors. Also, they corrected their mistake but I did call in a reservation. It took three phone calls on two different days. The person who picked up took my reservation but apparently did NOT record it in their reservation book. When we got there our reservation was no where to be found and even worse, the hostess said this had been happening a few times but they didn't know who was taking these reservations and not writing them down. Now if it was a one off, I'm just unlucky, but if you're telling me it's an issue, I think it's something management should really work harder on solving. The hostess was nice enough to be like you'll be our first priority for seating if any reservations don't show up and we were able to get a table fairly quickly which I really do appreciate. Other than that one staff issue with the reservation, the other staff were all amazing and our waitress came by a few times to check in on us and her and other staff came around to refill water.

And the stuffed phyllo with a side of fufu. Which was delicious. The fufu I mean. I shaped chunks of it like a spoon and used it to scoop up the stews. Not a novel idea, by the way. For a drink I had the fresh tamarind which was lightly sweetened and refreshing. The lamb was mild and benefited from a touch of salt, according to my companion. The beberé was sweetened by the sweet potato and probably my favorite of the three. The phyllo was exceptionally good! The table hot sauce has a chili and vinegar kick but is not particularly spicy. Service was great as well.

We were thoroughly enjoying all of the New Mexican cuisine we were also missing some home cooked Asian food that is our comfort, go to!

First the service - we ordered and got our food served to us! The food! Wow! I ordered the Beef Noodle Soup and soup buns! So so delicious!!! The owner shared his story of moving to Santa Fe after being in New York but covid happened. His wife and daughter along with his parents were arriving soon! We were so happy to learn about his story and happy that he was going to reunite with his family! The place is within a plaza area with other businesses. It's cozy and lots of seating inside and outside of their business but still indoors. I would love to return back to this place and support this business. I wish them much success!

A Santa Fe Treasure - Tune-Up Café…read more Diners like cafe's varied menu, which includes flavorful Salvadoran dishes, delicious pies, and numerous gluten-free options. They also highlight the reasonable prices, generous portions, and the cozy, authentic. I had the Chile Rellenos, and "amazing" feels like an understatement. They were perfectly executed: the chiles were tender yet held their structure, the cheese was beautifully melted, and the batter was light and golden without being greasy. What really sets them apart is the depth of flavor in the sauces. Whether you go red, green, or "Christmas," you can taste the authenticity and the quality of the ingredients in every bite. It's the kind of meal that makes you want to slow down and savor it, yet leaves you planning your next visit before you've even finished. Between the incredible service and the standout flavors, Tune-Up Café is easily one of the best culinary experiences in the city. A must-visit for locals and travelers alike!

I'm not sure what's happened to Vinaigrette, but the entire experience was completely disappointing. I asked the server to bring bread with our meal and was presented with some kind of focaccia bread stick that was hard and stale. What happened to the wonderful bread that used to be served there! I ordered the Tuna Salad, and my friend ordered the Beet Salad. While there was a generous amount of tuna, it was shredded into very small pieces and the salad was dry. It was completely underwhelming and unsatisfying. My friend commented the dressing on her salad was very sweet and the pistachios were ground up into the goat cheese. I'm very surprised at the quality of the dishes as I've never had a less than great experience there prior to this experience. I hope this was an isolated incident but will think twice about returning.

Since it's was a fine day , the patio tables were more popular. We chose inside because we could be seated sooner and enjoy air conditioning . Cute diner decor overall. We got an order of the sopadillas ( pastry filled with choice of meat ) . There was so much white chicken meat in the sopadilla which came with rice and beans too. We also tried the Fritos pie . It was essentially a Fritos "haystack "with your choice of protein. We shared a blue corn and pine nut pancake as an appetizer. It was a bit more dense than a regular pancake but still tasty . All dishes were good and satisfying. Big portions of food that we couldn't have any dessert . If you are in downtown Sante Fe try give this restaurant a try!
