SPIRITED DINING AND DRINKS IN SANTA FE

In 1882, Abraham Staab, a European immigrant who became one of Santa Fe’s most prosperous merchants, built a Victorian mansion on property that now belongs to La Posada. Abraham’s elegant wife, Julia, entertained local society and visiting dignitaries in incomparable style. Legend has it that Julia so loved her home that she has never left it.

Today, we celebrate Julia Staab as our muse and honor her name and legendary hospitality with the opening of Julia, A Spirited Restaurant & Bar. The restaurant features innovative, locally sourced dishes as well as an extensive selection of fine wines and spirits.

Don’t know Julia was in a hotel. There was no vibe at bar or restaurant although it was nice having a quiet dinner for two. Salmon was very good. The NY Strip was half the thickness of a normal steak and had a lot of fat on each tip of sliced meat. Service was very good. Decent restaurant but overpriced for what we got.

High praise for the chef. I tried the roasted poblano pepper and it was incredible. It was stuffed with quinoa and a couple of very flavorable sauces. I have never had anything like it. My husband had the grilled salmon and again it was really good. The restaurant is beautiful and the staff took great care of us.

My husband and I were looking for a quick meal on a Sunday, so we ate dinner at Julia's in the bar. We shared the stuffed poblano, which was stuffed with tri-colored quinoa and topped with two different kinds of sauces. It was delicious. I would recommend Julia's.

The problem with eating at this restaurant was that they would not answer their phone for over 1 1/2 days .. We chose this restaurant because we were celebrating my sister‘s 90th birthday. We wanted to find out if we could bring a bottle of expensive champagne into the restaurant. They didn’t answer their phone so we chose to go ahead and buy the champagne only to find out. It’s against New Mexico law to bring a bottle into a restaurant and pay a corkage fee so that’s needless to say spoiled our entire evening. There was no apology given there was noacknowledgment of any problem from the restaurant therefore I would never eat here again thank you

The dining room was not open. We were told there was only one wait person out on the patio so we chose to sit in the bar. Our waitress was the bartender. She was delightful. The only problem we had was trying to reach the restaurant by phone. The hours on Google were different from what the hours actually are. And the menu on line was an old one with many things no longer available.

Was a great setting. Not busy especially during such a busy weekend. Very limited menu. Pozole was great. Meat and cheese platter was great. Most meals were great except mine risotto was crunchy and Osso Bucco was cold.
