Special place Tinys is. Been around for almost 80 years. Live music 5 nights a week. Patio is nice. Boyfriend loves the club sandwich and I am a big fan of wings and their burger. Specials all the time. read more

Tiny's Restaurant & Lounge - Mariachi music serenading patrons - Bars Near Me - Santa Fe, New Mexico

Been in and around Santa Fe for many years, and have had lots of NM cuisine, but never at Tiny's. After hunting around on a busy holiday week evening for some New Mexican food, only to be stumped by insanely long wait times, we headed to Tiny's on a Monday at 6:30. Great, small, lively blues band playing, no wait to sit, and a very local, friendly vibe. Our party of five ordered a range of meals, rellenos, enchiladas, combinations, posole, tacos, and a few beers. Food was very reasonable in price, made to order, and rivaled just about anything at the trendier, upscale joints near the Plaza or elsewhere. Not a fancy joint, trying to one-up every New Mexico decorative cliche, so don't go for your Insta-life setting. When The Shed, The Pantry, La Choza, or others bust your chops, try Tiny's, and its long history in Santa Fe over the last 60 years. Or go to Tiny's to start. read more

We have been to Tinys several times. Previously, we had their carne adovada nachos which were great. We were craving them tonight and went there around 630. They were busy but we still were craving the nachos. Male waiter told us to sit where ever we'd like. There was the male waiter and the female waitress. We sat at the table for about 5 mins, no menus, no water, no acknowledgment that we were there. Male waiter came back with menus, told us he was not our server but he could get us some waters to start. After the water, the waitress started taking the orders of the table next to us, that was a larger party, but she said nothing to us at all--not even a hi, we're busy but I'll get back with you as soon as I can or as soon as I get this order in. Walked by our table, nothing. We waited another 5 minutes and decided to walk out. Poor customer service. We went to our favorite restaurant, Valentinas on Alameda. We ordered nachos with carne adovada and don't think we'll ever return to Tinys. read more

Services -I came to hear music and didn't order much. However, the ambience was fun, the service was very good, and the music was great.!

Michelle at the bar made these two out of towners feel straight at home. We saw the marquee and were lured in by a third Monday 19-piece jazz band, had some spicy nachos and were in heaven. Loved the experience; an alt-Santa Fe (or classic Santa Fe?) experience. read more

I should have taken a photo of the steak tacos. I'm unsure if it was skirt steak, and if it was, it was so perfectly cooked the big spears of steak tasted and had a consistency of a much more prime cut of beef. The masa harina tortillas were excellente and perfectly crisped on the edges with flour tortilla consistency to the rest of the wrap. I grew up on a working cattle ranch in Oklahoma so I know beef. My business is in Dallas, Texas and my husband live here and we are fortunate enough to retire in this fantastic town. We were there for a big meeting and the service was good but the food was five stars. Service probably suffered from it being a huge party. Just like Arnold Schwarzenegger "The Terminator," said, "I will be back!" My husband had the special avocado and shrimp salad. I tried it. No, honestly, I ate half of it. Didn't like it as much as the steak taco perfection but it was four stars good. I'd eat it, again! Do yourselves a favor and go. Nice owner, too. He was very welcoming and responsive. STEAK TACOS - $14.75 Grilled steak with Pico de Gallo topped with cheddar cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, served with beans and our own salsa. Pico de Gallo Their peak of the rooster salsa is perfection, as well. Unique and truly Santa Fe. Santa Fe has the peppers Texas and Oklahoma lack and the salsas prove it. I have only had one salsa I was not real crazy about but the rest are thumbs up in this town. read more

It was OK not fabulous but of course it was takeout so it's never as good as sitting in the

Went here with my sister and her husband -we split the the bill, they charge you to split the bill! Very poor customer service. I promise you, the waiter could not carry more than one beer at a time to our table. My tacos were dry and flavorless. The music was amazing. That's all I gotta say. read more

Tiny's Restaurant & Lounge - Carne adovada nacho plate. - Bars Near Me - Santa Fe, New Mexico

Tiny's is a family-owned and operated Santa Fe institution in operation since 1947. Walking inside is a bit like stepping back in time to an old-fashioned bar/dining room scene. They have great live entertainment and a dance floor all offered without a cover. They have a full bar offering and an extensive menu. This place definitely has a local vibe that says you have arrived at a special place that has been around for a long time. We really enjoy visiting Tiny's and know we can always stop by on a late night for a full meal or something as simple as nachos. The staff is always friendly and makes you feel like you've been there 100 times. Our nachos. pictured here, came complete with fresh jalapenos, sour cream, guac, and cheddar. We added the Carne Adovada for an extra kick. The chips were crispy and delicious, we only wish the amount of cheese and other goodness had been more equal to the number of chips on the plate and we would have finished that off rather than leave a plate with naked chips when we were done. Our last visit was on a slow night, but if you go on a night with live music and dancing you will not be sorry. And, if music and dancing aren't your things, check out the patio for a quieter, more intimate experience. It's a great time with good food and makes an enjoyable evening. Tiny's will always be our go-to for consistently good bites and fun date nights. read more

I've been to Tiny's since the Time the owners had the train running and their pictures were on the wall. It was always said Santa Fe does politics at Tiny's. Tonight I had the awesome Grilled steak and Enchilada especiale, everything was cooked to perfection, the enchilada Red Chile sauce like homemade, plenty of queso. Rice and beans awesome! read more

I can't say that this place wasn't good, but it certainly wasn't great. Other than the cleanliness, that is. I walked in and they had a wonderful live music set, with a young woman that had quite a voice. There were draft beer options, the menu stated, but I certainly never saw a tap anywhere. I ended up with bottles. The bartender, a veteran server, was incredibly kind. She certainly knew many of the regulars, and voiced a great deal of gratitude for her tip. Overall, if you are walking down Cerrillos and want to pop in, I suggest it. Or if you know a performing artist there. It gets the job done. read more

Tiny's Restaurant & Lounge - This place is exceptionally clean to have such an old cash register. - Bars Near Me - Santa Fe, New Mexico

I came here for a wedding dinner!! Great place for large parties. We took over their back area, which felt like a private room. I like their jalapeños appetizer and would order that next time! Their Fajitas looked super good. I had the shrimp taco which was delicious! There's live music at the bar. People got up to dance which was nice :) read more

OK, Tiny's has been in the same family for something like 50 years. Think about that. They have to be doing something right. We didn't go into the dining room, but the bar is classic and funky. The bartender had just the right amount of sass to keep you laughing and the wine list is Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio, Merlot and Cabernet....period, but they have a great selection of beers. Service was very good and I would put the food up against any other Northern Mexican food in town, plus I hear the hamburgers are great. Don't let the exterior scare you off. Next time you can't get into Maria's or La Choza....head to Tiny's. We will. read more

Typical New Mexican fare. The red chile is tasty. Service is quick and friendly. The music is lots of fun. A good go-to for a reasonably priced authentic meal in a good atmosphere read more

We "settled" for Tiny's only after finding frustration from being told it's an hour and a half wait at some of the more "desirable" places. Plus we were major hangry - and on the verge of a divorce. So I'm glad we stopped in. Curb appeal isn't great. But we were seated right away on their courtyard patio. The salsa was so fresh and was frankly some of the best I've ever had. Chock full of green onions, roasted tomato, cilantro, and just the right amount of heat. They need to bottle that stuff. The food was piping hot and their carne adovada did not disappoint. I love that it came with nixtamal (hominy). Oh yeah, the margaritas were good too. I'm giving these guys a shout out - they deserve it. And they probably saved our marriage. read more

We decided to go to Tiny's because it was a quick walk from our hotel, and we loved it. The salsa was the best I've had from a restaurant (ever), the flautas were delicious, and the chicken fajita salad was the all time winner of the night - our server Rebeca was incredible! read more

The food isn't anything special but the service is friendly. Big Band Jazz is the reason I go and its wonderful! I've been for karaoke night and it was pleasantly full, with a broad variety of people. read more

JR and crew consistently provide a nice experience. And now live music is back. Yay!

I is from Texas, and the food was AMAZING! If and when I visit during the summer I plan on coming back. The prices are reasonable. And they have live bands that frequently play as well. read more

Great food. Small but cozy. And margaritas. Not a hot spot but that is what makes it perfect. Must try the steak and enchiladas

Back to Tiny's again on my Thanksgiving visit to Santa Fe. Awesome New Mexican food as usual. Steak and enchilada's this time, and it was great! Also love the live music. Keep it up JR! read more

I had so much fun here, and I'd wager this is some of the best people-watching in Santa Fe. If you're thinking about coming for Saturday night karaoke with Nancy and Cyndi, just do it. You won't regret that decision. Knocking off a point because the server could not have been less interested in serving us, and there was an insanely long wait to sing, but otherwise? Fantastic. read more

YIKES! I did not know someone died at Tiny's [ http://www.santafenewmexican.com/news/local_news/police-piece-together-details-of-death-at-tiny-s/article_9a1e1333-38fe-5ce2-9081-9d1ab38f8e96.html ] until after I stopped in for a couple of drinks before heading back to the train. How awful. So, Tiny's isn't so tiny after all, and for that you lost a star and that customer. Just like any lounge place located in and around downtown Santa Fe, the alcohol prices were high considering you can buy more alcohol down the street for less money at the gas station. LOL. But, when we do visit lounges, it isn't for the price, is it? We customers go to places like Tiny's for a place to relax for a bit, listen to live music, and have a couple of pours. The restrooms were clean. My date and I sat at a small table with an electrical outlet next to it, so we were able to charge our phones during the couple of beers were were enjoying. They offer local beer that is both bottled and on tap. All this gives Tiny's three stars, but as I mention in the first paragraph... read more

There was just nothing redeeming about this place. Unless you count the drunk chick semi-mooning people (she was wearing pantyhose) at the bar, there was really no upside. I didn't count the semi-mooning as an upside, but far be it for me to deny others who might enjoy the show. ANYWAY, the food was bad, the atmosphere was dark and depressing, and my margarita was super sweet, had absolutely no bite, and appeared to be lacking any alcohol. The server was nice. read more

Thinking of going to eat at Tiny's? Think again. Go wait in line at Tomasita's or try La Choza or Gabriel's. Tiny's New Mexican dishes were only mediocre at best. The "salsa" was like no salsa I've EVER had! Yuck! No wonder the dining room was completely empty when we stopped in for lunch. Add to all that Food Poisoning. read more

Great Bar!! Excellent Restaurant! Great combination of an "Old School" bar with great music every night & almost always no cover charge! The music lineup is diverse and there is sure to be a night of great music for any taste in music, from world-class jazz to folk, indie rock and classic rock. Open mic nights are always fun and diverse. Good drinks by excellent bartenders plus kick ass chile! read more

We went back today for our anniversary lunch. I had the fish with garlic mashed potatoes and Gene had Carne Adovada. It was totally awesome, but we couldn't eat it all....had to take food home. The prices are amazing for Santa Fe. We have so much more to try when we go again which will be soon. Thanks to J..R. the owner for spoiling us...you're the best! read more

If you find that you've been a bit too chipper or cheery lately, stop in to Tinys and get back to reality. Nothing like a few minutes at this place to make you want slightly suicidal. I went a few weeks ago to see a "band." It wasn't like torture, it WAS torture. read more

Hellllloooooo Tourists! And welcome to Santa Fe! Ok so... Tiny's lounge. It's a local establishment that's been around forever and although the owner is a crotchety old fart it is a nice place to go for drinks and good food. The prices are a bit high but hey... Welcome to Santa Fe. They do have THE BEST burger in the state. The chili rellenos are AMAZING and the nachos are to die for!! You need to order them with carne adovada and layered! I just finished a plate right now! 09/04/14 Hellen and Sofia are fantastic bartenders serving up great drinks, good service and fun personality! They offer a variety of entertainment throughout the week, open mic night, jam sessions with a band and a live band usually every Friday, no cover but they make up for it on the drink prices. I am Anglo and from out of state and have never experienced any animosity like a previous Yelper stated. I Recommend checking it out!! read more

I had the taco salad and a margarita and it was awesome. But even better was our server Mandy- she was so fun and provided great service! We had such a great time. read more

This was our first visit here. The place looks like it was probably a ritzie supper club at one time. The waiters dress very nice and are very friendly with great service. I was expecting high prices, but it was reasonable. Here is where it gets kind of confusing. The chips were kind of tough and hard but I assume they were made in house, ok. The salsa was very good but had little heat if any. Ok. I got steak tacos. Three came on the plate, a nice portion. the steak was wonderfully tender..but where was the flavor? I don't think there was even salt on it..I put salt and pepper and salsa on them and they were good then. My husband had the carnitas burrito. He said the inside meat was pretty good but the green chili on top had hardly any flavor at all. Strange. So I really think this place COULD have some amazing food if they just used some salt and spices. You couldn't ask for better service so I'd like to give them another try. read more
