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.

Chef-owned and operated for more than two decades, 315 is dedicated to serving both modern and contemporary French cuisine inspired by seasonal local ingredients. With a grassroots initiative, almost every dish is prepared from scratch using exceptional care in the procurement of every ingredient. In this way, we pay respect to the community by finding new ways to support Santa Fe’s unique culture of food and art. French food is much more than the classic dishes we all have learned to know and love. It is a philosophy within its composition and a discipline in its technique. Using carefully selected ingredients, we look for ways to enhance a dish rather than overwhelm it. This is where the dance begins between the food and the wine.

    Always a wonderful night out. The Elk was excellent as was the Duck, caesar salad, and the carpaccio. Service was excellent as well. We have so many great restaurants in Santa Fe and this is one of the best!

    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!

    We shared the Foie Gras. The preparation was absolutely beautiful and tasty. My husband had the Fried chicken, mashed potatoes and green beans. Huge portion of a traditional meal made to perfection. He took half to go! I had the mushroom/pasta appetizer and it was delicious. We have been to 315 several times and have never been disappointed. If you appreciate traditional French food this is the place to go for dinner while visiting Santa Fe.

    One of the finest meals we've ever had. A perfect birthday dinner for 2. Sazon deserves its reputation for fine dining, but the rumor that's it's super-expensive is undeserved. Huge wait staff, very attentive to the details; chef's creations were original and perfect. Water Street public parking lot is 1 block away.
