   Some few nice dishes. In particular the heavenly black bean soup. Otherwise, mediocre cuisine, everything too sweet. Completely understandable why this spot receives a schlock award.

   One of my top ten dining experiences ever. Knowledgeable server provided excellent guidance through the menu featuring New World cuisine. Friendly but professional service. Attentive without being overbearing. Wonderful menu featuring interesting moles. New Mexican mole paired nicely with lamb chops. Zucchini blossoms were a very delicious appetizer. Attractive wine list. Frank Family Chardonnay went nicely with the appetizer, and Elk Cove Pinot Noir complemented my entree. Nice ambience. Outstanding evening!

   Chef Fernando Olea continues his impressive operation. Calling Sazon a restaurant does not adequately prepare one for the experience. One has to participate with Saxon to appreciate how good it is. Our server, Gabriel, expertly led us through all five courses.

   As one of my friends would put it, "very atmospheric". And I would also say, different, in a very good way. Beginning with the 5 moles, through the first and mains, the style, presentation, and conception of food was consistent and as if from another angle. It's just a cuisine that we don't have much opportunity to experience, especially in the haute cuisine manner. Very well done and enjoyable.

    We love the ambiance of Sazon, comfortable to sit and enjoy a meal, The food is most excellent, and our server Tomas was fabulous, knowledgeable and efficient. The mole appetizer tasting plate reminds us of why we want to keep coming back to Sazon. We highly recommend Sazon to everyone visiting Santa Fe!!

    We were on a winter holiday in Santa Fe. We were told by several people that Sazon was the nicest restaurant in town particularly because we love mole. The mole sampler was delicious, the soup of the day was sublime - insanely delicious. The staff was excellent!! However, the entrees and dessert were very disappointing!! I choose the pork with mole and asked for medium. My pork was dry and tough. My husband ordered the lamb also medium. The chops arrived raw and them over done. The Carmel crepe dessert was sickly sweet and practically inedible. The waiter did remove this item from our bill because we only took about two bites. If we returned to Sazon, we would stick with soup - which was truly outstanding- and salad. The rest of the dinner was not worth the cost and terribly disappointing.

    Sazon is outstanding on all aspects! It is hidden away on a small side street, very unassuming exterior. But upon entry, you are drawn to the gorgeous chandelier in the entrance, as well as the numerous colorful paintings throughout the restaurant. The service was top notch. And the food was amazing!

    Sazon is a foodie's delight. The food is subtle and wildly flavorful. The Sopa de Amor was amazing. We also enjoyed the stuffed squash blossoms, halibut and fascinating Dulce Sinfonía ice cream. The waiter suggested great wines to accompany each course. Dining at Sazon is an experience in itself as much as an opportunity to enjoy a fantastic, unique meal.

    ​Our dinner at Sazon was out of this world. The ambiance was upscale but not stuffy, and the service by Megan was second to none. She tantalizingly described the items on the menu to us, keeping our dietary preferences and my shellfish allergy in mind. Megan helped us select our dishes, how to course them, and didn't let us down. Every course we had was better than the next, and that is saying a lot. We started with Xochimilco, a savory and earthy corn truffle with mini tortillas. Rich and delish. This was followed by the Sopa de Amor, a delicate soup with green chile, crab, chocolate, and amaretto​ foam, which my ​husband raved about. We moved on to the Flor de Calabaza, a lightly fried, deliciously cheese-stuffed zucchini blossom with ginger aioli and chocolate balsamic sauce. Good lord, it was good. The piece de resistance was the fish of the day, Halibut in a Mole Verde. It was cooked to perfection. We finished our dinner with an espresso and the Helado de Mole Poblano; a chocolate mole ice cream (the mole is rich and subtle), covered with architectural-looking spun sugar, sitting on a bed of chocolate, and beet and sweet potato crisps. Get a smidge of each ingredient on your spoon, and you will be transported. I felt like I needed time alone with my dessert. We were made for each other. I haven't even mentioned all the personal attention we received, both the manager and Chef Olea stopped by our table to check in, and they were lovely. We've been to some wonderful restaurants over the years in many places, and Sazon stands out as one of the best. I feel like this is telling someone a movie is great, and I don't mean to over-rhapsodize, but truly, don't miss it if you live in or are visiting Santa Fe. Sazon is a one-of-a-kind culinary experience.

    Delicious meal. The octopus appetizer was fantastic as was the Sopa de amor. We also loved the squash blossom stuffed. I had the lamb chops which were done perfectly with the Molé New Mexico. It was our friends birthday, and they brought a complementary Small birthday cake. Delightful evening, this is what fine dining is all about

    This felt like a restaurant that had already peaked and was riding on reputation. Formulaic service and highly mediocre main dish. There were highlights (soap de amor) but real disappointments.
