Originally from Mexico City, Chef Fernando Olea, formerly Chef of Epazote, has been enthralling diners in Santa Fe since 1991. Chef Olea creates sophisticated flavors using Old Mexico’s indigenous and culinary traditions alongside ingredients from around the world. His menu is deliberately small, featuring fresh and locally sourced produce and meats when possible.
Nothing evokes the mystery of Mexican cuisine more than mole, a sauce of complex flavors that usually includes toasted and ground spices, seeds, nuts, chocolate and chile. Many mole recipes contain more than thirty ingredients and some recipes have five varieties of chile alone. Chef Olea is delighted to share his moles that include his "New Mexican Mole" that he created to commemorate Santa Fe’s 400 year anniversary in 2009. The large mural in the main dining room, was painted and presented to Chef Olea by Federico Leon De La Vega, a well- known artist from Mexico City.

    Ambiance is about as good as it gets (we sat in the bar area). Brandon the bartender/server was outstanding, friendly and professional. The caesar salad was a piece of art but only average on taste, too much emphasis on anchovies including 3 on top (overwhelming). I had the lobster carbonara which was quite a departure from traditional carbonara and should be given a different name, I would have appreciated a ham-bacon type supporting meat instead of the chorizo, chunks of lobster were excellent. The bread basket was excellent but the olive oil lacked the rich flavor we expected of Italian or Sicilian pressed olive oil. Our dinner, including wine, was about $100 each before tip. Definitely recommend for a special occassion but didn't have a "wow factor for the price" that would take us back more often.

    We went to brunch on New Year's Day and really enjoyed ourselves. We both had the breakfast burrito, and my hatch green chili sauce was really good. Since it was our anniversary, they gave us a dessert to share, and the chocolate torte was a great choice. Would return. Good valet service too.

Discover Santa Fe

The Food Museum calls Santa Fe a "food and heritage community." It is a capital city that has existed since 1610, and today, it thrives on tourism with vibrant streets standing side by side and beckoning hungry visitors. A memorable experience for visitors is tasting the legendary Santa Fe green chile and the endless dishes it complements. New Mexican food isn't your typical Mexican fare. Enjoy breakfast burritos smothered in chile and sweet sopapillas with a side of honey for dessert. Borrowing from New Mexico’s wine making tradition, it's also been touted as home to one of the top 100 wines in America. The area features an abundance of festive restaurants, bars, and markets framed by gorgeous scenery.
