Our 1st time visiting Santa Fe and ate at the Plaza. One of the best restaurants we visited. Food and service were amazing! If we ever make it back - will definitely be eating here again. Spicy salmon salad, blue corn pancakes (tasty and unique), French toast and Mexican chicken salad were excellent. They offer inside and outdoor seating. Wish we could of sat at the cute outdoor patio but it was a bit too warm for us.

We stopped by the historic Plaza Café Downtown for a late lunch, and it easily became one of the absolute highlights of our trip. Everything from the customer service and ambiance to the food quality and quantity was a flawless 10/10. The restaurant has a fantastic, welcoming diner atmosphere right off the plaza that perfectly captures the charm of Santa Fe. Our server, Jose Luis P., provided exceptional, attentive service that made us feel right at home from the moment we sat down. The food was outstandingly fresh, flavorful, and served in incredibly generous portions: The Impossible Burge

The service was helpful and restaurant has indoor and outdoor seating which is great. This place has great vibes. I had the stuffed sopapilla without sauce because I couldn’t handle the red sauce. The blue corn enchiladas were savory and chicken burrito was delicious. Great place just expect a wait to get a table.

This place is usually busy, and honestly, it makes sense because the food and taste are really good. I tried the steak fajitas along with the chips and guac, and I was genuinely impressed by both. The steak was flavorful, and the chips and guac were fresh and delicious. I stopped by during a road trip for dinner, and it was absolutely worth it. It felt like the perfect meal after a long drive. The portion sizes are also really big, which makes the experience even better. Definitely worth visiting if you’re passing through.
