Maria's New Mexican Kitchen: A local hangout known for it's Chile Rellenos, Blue Corn Chicken Enchiladas, and of course, their grand gold margaritas.
The Steaksmith at El Gancho: Being so close to the Inn, this is a real treat.

Steaksmith offers delightful seafood choices as well as premium steaks.
The Bobcat Bite Cafe: Located right next door to the inn and known for their green chile cheese burgers. They are a landmark in Santa Fe and have been in business since the 1950's. We are not affiliated with the bite ,other than eating there a lot. They were recently filmed on Hamburgers America. They are only open Wed.-Sat. and close at 7:50 PM.
Santacafe: My favorite fine dining restaurant. Their calamari, spring rolls, and shrimp dumplings are to die for! The presentation and service is always wonderful.
Andiamo: Great little Italian Bistro downtown.
O'Keeffe Cafe: Tasty sandwiches, soups, gourmet luncheon entrees and located right next to the museum.
