   Prix fixe for holidays, so menu choices were limited. But it was all well prepared and our wait staff was wonderful.

   My wife and I had a great time at La Plazuela. The courtyard dinning area is fantastic and the ambiance is outstanding. We chose the three course holiday menu and the food was wonderful, service was great, and the overall evening was very enjoyable. We recommend eating here if you’re in Santa Fe.

   All things considered, it was Dec. 22 and crowded. But we had a reservation, which we had to wait 20-30 minutes for. Service staff did their best. Margaritas were excellent as was the guacamole and chips. The rest was some of the worst food I have been served in recent memory, especially when the prix fix menu was our only option. At over $120 a head it was appalling.

   Do you want to return to old Santa Fe? If so, this is the place. The atmosphere is relaxing, the memories are intriguing and everyone helps you return to old Santa Fe..

   The Christmas special pri fix menu had something for everyone. The steak and enchiladas were fantastic. Great cut of meat. Very tender. The tenderloin Oscar was also great. Pecan pie was perfect. Had lots to take home. The strawberry goat cheese salad was excellent. Wonderful evening with hard working staff.

   I feel badly for SF restaurants having to opt for prefix menu and gratuity included due to the ratio of foreigners but it ruins the experience for locals and their guests. The food was ok and the service was ok but clearly stretched to capacity with holiday overbooking. Maybe a locals menu and top tier servers for them.

   They not tell us it was price fix so meal bad and ver disappointed…. Our expectations were definitely not met.all they had to do was tell us of the change and we could have cancelled the dinner. We canceled the next reservation with them because experience and meal were so poor.

   This was a delightful experience start to finish. The prix-fixe menu had a number of excellent choices. We started with a delicious creamy lobster bisque that was not at all lacking in lobster. We had to request bread, but it was delivered promptly & warm with a delicious butter just tinged with honey & herbs. Between the four of us we tried the Chilean sea bass, the prime rib, the lamb shank & the chicken cordon Bleu. All entrees were delicious & were quite ample portions. The flan for dessert was creamy & sweet. Our waiter, Armando, was amazing! He was attentive without being overbearing, charming and accommodating. He recognized that we were attending a concert, had time constraints and smoothed the way for us. Food, service, ambience…fabulous!

    Everything in the experience was another level. Service by Yazz was personalized and top notch. Ambience so romantic. Could hear live music coming from the bar next door. Food was original, high quality and amazing. Easily one if the best dinners of life!
