SantaCafe's menu is not extensive. But the food is always good (especially Maggie's pasta, and I'm not a big pasta eater) and there has always been a satisfying choice for a variety of food preferences. I love the ambiance, on the patio in warmer weather, or inside in the multiple small rooms with just a few tables in each (4-5?). Calm, peaceful. A go-to restaurant for me. Never disappointed.

We frequently dine at La Boca for over a decade now. It’s one of our Santa Fe favorites. Our experience on all counts is always perfection! How chef/owner James Campbell Caruso does it year after year? Easy answer. He’s hands on, in the kitchen and treats his staff like family!

Great Mexican selections that incorporate both meat and seafood choices. Fajitas were tender and full of flavor. Great place away from the wait times experienced in downtown Santa Fe.
