Santa Ana Pueblo Restaurants

Dinner with dear friends in a beautiful setting. The food was delicious and the staff very professional and kind.

Blade's has been our "go-to" restaurant for 11 years and it has never disappointed. Chef Kevin is always first-rate and so clearly loves to serve extremely tasteful and well-prepared dishes from Steak au frites, to chicken francaise to grilled asian BBQ ribs. The side dishes are no bland but attended to with an equal amount of care and concern that they be interesting and flavorful. The appetizers we had were also excellent - the fried calamari as well as the coconut friend shrimp! Their wine selections are extensive for a bistro and offer moderate to high-ed choices. Our Veneto Pinot Grigio was the perfect companion for our celebratory evening - event was my birthday celebration with family and that, too, was honored by Blade's with dessert offerings!!!! Lastly, the service was very attentive and considerate of our desire not to be rushed and Jed and Izzy even tended to my typically picky requested for side sauces and more!!!! Blades is one of the best restaurants in the state!

Three of us had lunch in the Santa Ana Café. The location and the ambience are excellent. Food was very good. One friend had two chili Rellenos and a cup of the green chili stew both of which she thoroughly enjoyed. Myself and our other friend both had the Santa Fe omelette. She added mushrooms. I added mushrooms and spinach. We were busy talking and not paying attention and the server did not ask for clarification … she ended up getting mine with the spinach and I ended getting hers without the spinach. We were both into them before we realized the error. Our waiter, Will, was excellent! The young man who served the plates pleasant and helpful, but that’s an error that should not have happened. For this reason I give four stars. We also had the green chili apple pie for dessert. Very tasty but disappointing as I said to Will, if I didn’t know there was green chili in there I wouldn’t know. Barely barely just a hint any less and there would be nothing so definitely did not qualify in my mind as a green chili apple pie. It was just apple pie. but, as I said, it was delicious, if a very small for the price ($10).

We were a party of six. The waitress was able to take care of all of our needs promptly and courteously it’s a good place for a group. We liked the food and drinks

The food and service were excellent. Vanya goes the extra mile to make sure everything is done well. Thank you and George the chef!
