Skylights flood the dining room with natural light and handsome carved furnishings, artisanal lighting, and our much-loved hand painted windows create a beautiful, inviting room to gather, to dine and to make memories in. The menu was crafted to showcase old favorites with New World influences and authentic New Mexican cuisine. La Plazuela at La Fonda on the Plaza is Santa Fe’s gathering place. Come dine with us!

    Had a reservation, but had to wait for table. Other than that, it was a great experience. We had eaten there 8 years ago when we stayed at La Fonda.

    We were celebrating my husband's birthday and the food and service were wonderful. I had the Chilean Sea Bass and my husband the Tenderloin Oscar. It was a bit loud and messy at 6 pm with families with small kids but the fountain drowned out some of the noise.
