    We had a lovely SFrestaurant week dinner. Drinks, food and service were stellar. Thanks Parris! It had been years since I’d been back. Dining room is much more subdued but still felt special. Curios!

    Delicious food, new chef Dakota’s creations are wonderful. Also Becky the dessert chef’s creations were special. The service was a little slow, but otherwise very good. We’ll be back

    Even during the busy Restaurant Week, Coyote Cafe continues to shine. It’s so nice to be treated like your table is the most important in the room, no matter the evening. Food was great, as always (the Green Chile Bisque!!!). Thank you for another wonderful night.

    We live north of Santa Fe but this is our go to when we want to go out for dinner. We were just recently here and couldn’t wait to come back. Somehow it gets better every time we visit. Seriously. Thank you, Coyote!

    What an experience! From the moment we walked in we felt at home. The warm and professional staff treated us like royalty. Our dinner was the best we have had in years. The amazing presentation of flavors and technique of each dish awoke the senses! We can't wait to come back! Thank you to the entire staff for creating a memory that will last a lifetime!!!!!
