    This was a favorite place last year - but no more. The picatta which used to be wonderful was blah, served hot but tastelessly, with a tiny scoop of lukewarm mashpotatos and colorless, also lukewarm, overcooked vegetables. They had one last bottle of (half flat) pellegrino and were "out of" bread. The fajitas we served like a mushy casserole with the tortillas floating in oil (they provided others).

    I have always told people that the absolute best Caesar Salad in Santa fe was at Dinner for 2. We were all so disappointed that you no longer serve it outside. It was my birthday and I was craving it. Oh well, maybe next fall.

    Visiting Santa Fe and the place was recommended. The steak Oscar and NY strip were excellent. We had the table side Caesar which was good but not excellent. We had the carrot cake for dessert and highly recommend. Overall a great dining experience

    Nice place for happy hour, because a full dinner is just sometimes too much. My biggest gripe is NO BEER. Yes BEER! Plenty of good local offerings from local micro breweries around that I think would go well with your food. Mixed drinks are fine, but a little to stuffy for me. Come on! This is SF, not NY! You want NY, go there!

    My wife went to Dinner For Two for Mother's day. I ordered the ribeye and my wife the surf n turf. The steaks were a little too much pink as we both ordered well done. The Ceasar salad was good as well as the banana flaming desert. Both were prepared by the same very nice, energetic young man who explained each ingredient to both items. Pricey, but worth it once and a while.

    We had a reservation for the outdoor patio but didn’t realize that meant bad techno music blaring. We asked them to change the music or let us sit inside and they ignored us.

    We had really been looking forward to this dinner, but were disappointed with the service that was so slow, even with 5pm reservations, we only had ordered 3 happy hour small plates before the waiter told us happy hour was over ...at 6:02pm This despite my trying to get the waiter's attention for 5-10 minutes, before he finally came over. They ran out of buns, so no pulled pork sliders. They didn't have enough staff to prepare their signature tableside Caesar, yet they charged us $30 for it anyway. To be clear, we got no Caesar, tableside or prepped in the kitchen. The oyster mushroom risotto was amazing, but every other dish was a bit of a let down, steak nachos with steak riddled with far too much fat. Our friends ordered this, as well and theirs looked awesome. But other dishes fell short of the raves we'd read online, including the salmon fish and chips (garlic truffle potato strings). and the "famous" Carrot Cake with lovely moist cake and a most disappointing, buttery frosting instead of cream cheese.. This could be more personal preference on the frosting. Taken together, it was a disappointing evening. We my give them another shot, cbecause of so many positive reviews online and the menu is tremendous.

    Wow, its so hard to find a resturant this good. Everything we ate was fabulous. I would rate the risotto the best I've ever had. Steaks perfect, and the pulled pork mole enchilada was an amazing blend of flavors in a very modern way. Great atmosphere and close to the plaza.

    Arrived, no outside seating without notice. I think this important as on their website they said it was dog friendly. We did not bring our dog this time, thank goodness, or our anniversary dinner would have been missed (prob. best to call ahead - though a restaurant of this quality should update their website or the patron with changes). We arrive at our reservation time, are told it will be a 10-15 min wait (prob. b/c they overbooked and closed the outside seating). Ok, I can wait, but there is no waiting area. We stood, in the way, as waiters zipped by with food, more people came in the door, we had to stash away in the bathroom hallway. After 10 min, a bar table became open as a group of 4 were waiting to be seated in the main dining area. We asked, could we sit there while our table is still being prepared, we were met with who I assume is actually the GM, saying, "I guess so, I'll have your table ready in like 4 minutes" in a gruff tone. Ok, at least we're no longer in a bathroom hallway. So we sit, then the person getting our table ready, asks if we wanted to sit there, we said no, we prefer the table in the main dining area since we could not sit outside, we were just waiting - out of the way. We get seated, wait another 5, get some water. Wait another 5 minutes (It's 6:30pm now). Waiter stops by to get drinks, we order cocktails off their cocktail menu and our waiter says, "Our bar's really busy, these are going to be like 10-15 minutes are you sure you want them?" Uh...yes, we want drinks at our dinner despite the uninviting time frame. It wasn't until we ordered the meal that our waiter seemed to realize we're actual customers. The rest of the night went fine despite the closeness of tables and loudness in the main room. Dinner for two felt like dinner at a bar, that's too busy for the customer. The salad guys were the nicest people working there and the food is excellent. Would have thought that it would have been a better experience for the price tag.

    This was our second time there in 3 weeks. Unfortunately it will probably be our last. I ordered the NY STRIP but was served a different bar-b-que cut. The vegetables on both our plates obviously came out of some large vat or skillet plus my plate had both Mashed potatoes and frizzled onions. My Old Fashion cocktail was just bourbon and water.

    Service was great. Ceasar Salad awesome. Ordered the tomahawk steak. Tasted good but over cooked. Ordered med. rare came out med. well. They did take off 60.00 for the steak. Never ordered that expensive of a steak so disappointed it wasn't cooked perfectly.

    Having come from the former night of dining at Santacafé where the experience was amazing, for a mere $60 less in cost, the experience was far inferior. First of all, with the name of the restaurant being “Dinner For Two” I was expecting a more romantic experience with my wife. That was not the case. We had outdoor seating which was right along a relatively busy street and, on top of that, the music was some sort of Trans or house music that was loud and with a fast beat - hardly a good experience and not commensurate with the name. We were never asked if we wanted bread while others around us received it. We ordered two glasses of wine and that was fine. We also ordered coconut shrimp (it came with 3 pieces). In most places, when you have two persons dining, the waiter should let you know this and ask perhaps if we may have wanted one more to give us each two. Not a chance here. We also ordered the risotto with mushrooms. The risotto was good but the shrimp was fair. Then while we actually had the appetizers on our table and we were actively eating them, the waiter looks at us and asks us if we wanted appetizers- like she totally forgot to even look at us and the table to see or remember that she already got that for us. Wow! I ordered the crispy chicken and my wife ordered the crab stuffed trout. Neither was all that great. It was average but did not really have much flair to the taste. It looked great though as you can see in my photos. Don’t be fooled. Also, given that the forecast for the evening was that temperatures were to drop to 39, we asked if they had any heaters and they said no and not for this time of year. Other restaurants we have gone to in Santa Fe in the same week had them, however. All in, I was very disappointed in the food, the service and the ambiance. Not recommended…

    Went there for happy hour with a friend. Happy hour food choices very impressive, many tasty choices at good prices. Happy hour alcohol choices not impressive, but luckily your can order off the regular drink menu and get a decent glass of wine. The noise level on the outdoor patio is a fly in the ointment. Restaurant keeps the music at a high volume, so when the place begins to fill, people need to talk loudly to hear each other over the music. After a while it all escalates and the noise becomes unpleasant. TURN THE MUSIC DOWN, so people can talk at a normal volume!

    Service was horrific! The when it finally arrived was good. We arrived and was seated right away at 6:15 and didn’t receive our dinner until 8:30. All the while a table right beside use sat after we arrived had the staff tripping over themselves to serve them. One of the worst dining experience I’ve had. It is important to note the restaurant was well staffed and the surrounding table appeared to be well taken care of.
