Best Restaurants with a Tasting Menu in Santa Fe

This is a rare 10/10 rating for me. Even after two years, it is as great a dining experience as the first time. Food is beautiful, interesting, and has so many wonderful flavors that work in perfect harmony. Staff, atmosphere - even the chairs and type and volume of background music - made it a perfect dining experience for all four of us.

Best of Santa Fe for a fine dining experience with meticulous service

The reputation of this restaurant is well justified. The food choices are creative and well prepared. The cholula was excellent as was the sea bass with mole. However, the most notable thing about Sazon after the food is the staff. They are trained in the continental style. Totally attentive, coordinated service and very supportive of each other. Highly recommend Sazon for anyone visiting Santa Fe. I’m sure locals don’t need a review to decide to patronize this restaurant.

We drove to Santa Fe from Albuquerque to try La Boca for Valentine’s Day. As you can assume it was quite packed and the restaurant is not very large, but all of the servers and staff in the restaurant were very attentive and kind. We were talked through the Sherry Flight, and tried the 3 course tasting menu. First course was a soup or salad, so we ordered one of each. The main was a chorizo, goat cheese and chili sandwich, and dessert was a chocolate mousse. The spoon was a little larger for the mousse vessel but it was quite funny trying to figure out how to get everything out of the container. We even made acquaintances with the table next to us. Overall it was a nice time, I’d love to go back on a less busy day!

Tess is a superstar! She is friendly and efficient and patient as we sipped our cocktails before ordering our dinner. We are quick to choose Palace Prime for our special occasions. We can always depend on excellent food service and ambiance.
