    Excellent Sopa's
    Richard P.

    just an update on a previous review. It's been several months since we last visited. Running late for lunch around 3 o'clock a spot we had picked out was closed so we went to plan B and came back to Valentinas. We both ordered the Combo Grande. Excellent! This is a great local spot. Give it a go. Still 5 stars for us.

    Chile Riano's omelette!

    Serious delicious authentic breakfast. Only locals and the waitress was great. omelette chili relleno was very indulgent and my sweetheart had huevos rancheros. Both were inhaled.

    Papas rancheros
    Joey Y.

    Went for breakfast. Wow! Huevos rancheros and papas rancheros. Those sopapillas!! The tortillas just like my grandmothers. All so delicious. Warm friendly service. I'm from San Diego so I know good Mexican food. This surpasses.

    Enchiladas de Mole Rojo
    John F.

    This charming mom and pop restaurant has personality, amazing food, and speedy service. We were a little skeptical walking into the restaurant but was pleasantly surprised with the dishes that are served. The enchiladas de mole roja were our favorite. I'm tempted to try everything on the menu! So good.

    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!

We are both very particular about our crusts and this one did not disappoint. This is one of those places that from the outside looks like a hole in the wall. Do not let that fool you. Stop in and order! You will not be disappointed. Staff are also amazing - very friendly

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.

Sometimes, my go to is one of their yummy pastries, but if I'm real hungry, I'll go for a breakfast burrito or a Panini with a side salad. The service is so good you leave feeling like an old friend of the staff. They are warm, engaging, and always happy to see you. The ambience is chill with plenty of places to sit and chat or work. There's good music playing in the background and great events going on throughout the week at various staggered times. The location is smack dab in downtown with a gorgeous view of the famous Seret and Sons from their large windows that let in tons of lovely natural light.

I left Cakes feeling so frustrated and disappointed by the way I was treated by that guy, that I dont feel comfortable going back.

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!

    Dear Mr. G.,…read more You've got it in your mind that this is somehow a personal vendetta or I've got some kind of twisted motive. That would be a misconceived notion, indeed. Do you believe you're helping your cause by being personally defensive? That said, I understand how you could take this review personally and if I was in your shoes maybe I would, too. After all, you've invested way more than just mere money into your business. Blood and sweat counts for a lot. Btw, before I continue, please notice I corrected my mistaken comments about barbacoa and clams. And please also take note there isn't any animus in anything I've written, none. It's only your interpretation. Calling my HONEST review fake is no different than calling the major news networks "fake news". It's completely without substance. I've spent thousands of dollars in that dining room of yours, so I feel I have a right to speak my mind. And, of course, you've got a right to react however you see fit, but if you're paying attention you will notice I'm not the only one saying the quality of your food has slipped. Are we all exercising some personal grudge directed at you? No. And, yes, the "fresh" (is there any other kind) bread should be FREE, jeez! And you shouldn't be charging $1 for ranch dressing for my broccoli, either! And, while I'm at it, if I want to be really nitpicky, $25 for a pork chop is totally outrageous for a neighborhood bistro where we used to eat 2-3 times a week. No more. Given your price increases I can only assume the rent is really high at DeVargas. I will only add that on a previous visit a few years earlier the pork chop was $18 and I sent it back for being dry, tough and chewy. That was Robbie, not you. I'll only add that it had been prepared PERFECTLY every other time I had it. But, I digress. Contrary to what you might believe I get no pleasure from writing a critical restaurant review, but I will admit to a sense of satisfaction from being honest and, thereby, be able to caution others about certain inconsistencies at Dr. FGs. My brother who was present at the table on the fateful evening is a professional food writer with literally four decades of experience. For some years he wrote the wine and restaurant reviews for the Denver Magazine and is the author of the most definitive cookbook on northern New Mexican cuisine ever written, "Feast of Santa Fe" (Simon & Schuster). There are restauranteurs in Santa Fe who consider Feast of Santa Fe to be required reading, as it so accurately defines the uniqueness of our traditional Santa Fe culinary art. Yes, to me food is art. For what it's worth, my brother concurred with everything I stated in my review of your food from that night. In fact, he's having lunch in your dining room today, 5/4/26. He's hungry for your chicken pot pie if it's available. Oh, and, by and by, you don't even want to know what he thinks about your B-A BLT. The adjectives would not be complimentary. Look, I never would have opened my big mouth if this one bad meal was the first I sent back at your restaurant. It's only after several negative experiences in a row, yes, three in a row, that I decided to write about it and offer the diners in Santa Fe a few words of caution. Lastly, Mr. G., your farm to table claim will become a hollow marketing boast if you continue to get the important stuff wrong. I loved eating at your Cerrillos location next to Wok and was amazed at just how wonderful the food could be in a strip center location. I never had a bad meal there. I'm not rich like so many of my upscale neighbors who reside on the north side and I can't afford to throw my retirement income down a hole. This is especially true when I don't feel like I'm getting my money's worth. That's where I draw the line. The goal of my reviews on Yelp and TripAdvisor, isn't to punish you for a bad meal or to stroke my ego or to hide anonymously behind a keyboard, not at all. I was only hoping against hope that if I shook the tree hard enough then you might wake up to what's actually going on in your own restaurant. But, apparently, you know what's best and not me. My apologies for not bringing all this to the manager's attention, but I didn't want to pile on one negative on top of another. I'm done. John D.
