   Very loud crowd as the room was full and piped in music just added to the noise. My chicken panzanella was sparse, no added starch like rice or potatoes. Chicken piece on a puddle of cream sauce with halved Cherry tomatoes and croutons scattered around.

   Lovely setting for a wonderful dinner. The tableside guacamole is not to be missed. Service was excellent.

   La Plazuela never disappoints. The food, as well as the service, is consistently very good. Some dishes are even outstanding. Not being much of a meat eater, I have to trust my fellow diners on pork and red meat offerings. The tortilla soup is perhaps the best I have eaten anywhere. The wine selection is quite good, without offering an encyclopedia of choices to ponder. My only complaint is that some of my favorite dishes have been removed from the menu over the past several years. The ambience keeps us coming back. It is always quiet enough to have a conversation without raising our voices to be heard.

   Birthday. Out of town family. Even with reservation had to wait for table. Not nice at all. Bus person station at hostess stand was constantly bumping chairs, too close. Waited 30 minutes for drinks and appetizers which put everyone in a foul mood. So my birthday was not enjoyable. Dinner was good when it came. I can’t help that my birthday fell on a Monday night.

   Everything was perfect- it’s a nice place for a gathering of 5 or more- the noise level may not be conducive to a romantic dinner, but where family and friends are involved in a group- it was perfection. Kind, warm, professional and knowledgeable service! Definitely recommending to all!

   The New Mexico specialties are great. Wonderful service. Only negative comment—martini could have been a better pour.

    La Plazuela has long been one of our favorite restaurants to visit when we stay in Santa Fe. This time, however, our experience was subpar. The waitress was coughing throughout her service to us, and she was not wearing a mask. Dear waitstaff, if you are coughing while serving a meal, at least wear a mask! In addition, we typically love the tableside guacamole, but this time, the individual who prepared the guacamole did not add in all the ingredients requested and the market price of $20 was not worth it! Usually love the enchiladas, but the green sauce was way too spicy hot, so thankfully my husband switched meals with me. To top off the experience, our waitress ran another table's meals on our credit card. She corrected the error as soon as we pointed it out, but that was a careless mistake. Looking forward to a better experience next time, always love the ambiance!

    Fabulous dinner with friends, including table side guacamole prep and delish tempura squash blossoms stuffed with goat cheese and chorizo. Our entrees were equally great, including the hiutlacoche tamal, salmon and steak frites. Yum! Manager Adam is a delight, warmly greeting diners, and Ariceli the server was superb — and charming.

    Despite having many visits to Santa Fe over the past 30 years under my belt, I had never dined at La Plazuela. But, I sure am glad that I did. It was an intimate family dinner, my mother, my aunt and a longtime dear friend were my tablemates. Our wonderful waiter, Armando, was totally fine with giving us 15+ minutes to catch up and enjoy our cocktails. The menu contained many mouthwatering descriptions, and the items we selected did not disappoint. The quality of the ingredients, the execution of the dishes, as well as the presentation - all on full display in this wonderful dining room. Oh, and did I mention the very warm and helpful attention we received from our waiter? I would definitely recommend the dining experience at La Fonda. Gorgeous ambiance within a super historic building right on the Plaza.

    Meal and service were very good once things got rolling. Had to wait for a short while as reservation seating was not available on time. Waited approximately 10 minutes after being seated before our server came to our table. Believe restaurant was somewhat under staffed.

    Caesar salad was not even close to being a Caesar salad. Not sure what receipt the kitchen was using. The service was totally unresponsive. I did notice that our single server was very overloaded with other tables. If you don’t have enough staff you should not try to serve that many people.

    They were very busy and the service was slow but affable. The appetizers were delicious. But, the main course was served cold. The potatoes were raw and the beef was cold. We sent it back and they reheated the beef so it was overcooked and gave us plain french fries, instead.
