Best Restaurants with a Happy Hour in Placitas

Excellent in every category. We brought an out of town guest for a wonderful, as always, experience. We had nine tapas plates - old favorites like the kale and shrimp fennel salads, gambas al ajillo, and, tried a few specials like the roasted cauliflower in a barbecue harissa sauce. It's great to be able try so many delicious bites. The ambiance was perfect - I felt like I was in Madrid.

Long wait time for food to be served. Too few waitets

Indigo Crow is always good. Been going there for well over 15 years. Had the Ahi Tuna salad and green chile cheeseburger for lunch - split with my wife. Highly recommend. Sit outside if weather permits. One of the Crown Jewels of the New Mexico dining scene.

Although we have lived in Santa Fe for three years, this was our first meal at Pink Adobe. We took and out of town guest and ordered a starter, three entrees and two deserts. Fernando was led our waitstaff and was outstanding in his attention and his team equally as engaged. The entire staff of Pink Adobe was busy, helpful and uniformly pleasant. The food was excellent. Fresh shrimp, beautifully cooked filet of beef and the churro's and lava cake were excellent. I would be remiss if I didn't mention the very well prepared decaf Americano's which accompanied our dessert. I'm sure Pink Adobe will be a valuable addition to our list of best places to dine in Santa Fe.

Service was excellent - when I ordered the salmon, the menu didn't mention it was pepper crusted and the server offered to have it remade without me asking (I was trying to scrape it off and eat it and he noticed.) We went to the bar to try the Espresso Martini offerings and they were amazing. Everyone friendly and accommodating to me and my elderly mom.
