Joseph’s Culinary Pub is a creation of Chef Wrede and his creative and business partners. This is the third incarnation of Wrede’s original Joseph’s Table, conceived in Taos, New Mexico, not quite 20 years ago, for which he is well known and loved within the region and beyond.

The name Zacatlán surged from the origins of our chef, Eduardo Rodriguez. He was born in Zacatecas, Mexico (north-central Mexico), which is defined as "the habitants of the land where grass grows". Zacatlán is the nahuatl translation for "land with an abundance of grass", and that is where our idea of Zacatlán Restaurant began.
Zacatlán Restaurant desires to continue to preserve the traditions for our upcoming generations, while bringing forth new flavors. These new flavors incorporate Southwestern and Mexican influences. We are established near the Santa fe Plaza, right off of Guadalupe Street. We want to unveil a new fusion of food for everyone in Santa Fe and those who visit.

Sazon

Price: Very Expensive

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.

Food was fantastic, service excellent, ambiente great. All what we expected from this well known restaurant. A nice touch is the possibility to try the different Mole Sauces and to choose one or more for some of the dishes. The noise level was a little on the loud side, but people in this busy restaurant had a good time. Definitely a must go place.

The staff is very friendly and the food was wonderful. We liked it so much the night we ate as walk-ins and took our friends back on this night so we could share it with them. I would go over and over if we lived in the area. They did great things with both seafood and steak entrees. Wine list was expansive enough for each of us to find favorites - something we had not experienced at other restaurants in the area.

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.
