Opened in 2006 by 8 time James Beard Award Nominee, Chef James Campbell Caruso.
La Boca has the feel of a lively European wine bar, featuring an extensive selection of carefully chosen Spanish wines and Sherries. Chef Caruso's Modern Spanish Cuisine is inspired by the exuberance of Spanish cooking combined with fresh, local ingredients. La Boca has been  called "the most influential restaurant in Santa Fe" by the Pasatiempo Magazine and the New York Times describes the menu as "modern re-inventions of classic Spanish cuisine" Knowledgeable and animated staff graciously guide guests to the perfect wine to complement their meals. La Boca also prides itself on being an ambassador of Spanish sherry culture, transporting its guests to Jerez in the crisp cool flavors of Fino, or the deep fig-essence of a Pedro Ximenez.

Join us every Thursday and Friday night for live music on the Taberna main stage!

    La Boca is one of those places were it is consistently good. We have never had a dish we didn’t like. The food is amazing. The gin and tonics are delicious and light. Service is always attentive. It’s always a great option for food in Santa Fe.

    Great range of tapas well prepared and delivered. Out servers were helpful in guiding to portions and flavor’s of various dishes. The kitchen delivered delicious and well presented plates that our table of 4 shared with enthusiasm for each dish. The focus on Spanish wines was a nice touch for this menu. Would happily return.

    The staff and ambiance were excellent. The food was mediocre. My husband is a huge fan of garlic shrimp, so we ordered the dish at La Boca. It had only a hint of garlic and was so salty it was nearly inedible. We also had the mussels which were just OK. We ordered bread to enjoy the sauces which was brought out with a side of olive oil. The oil was rancid and left a horrible taste. We have been to Spain dozens of times and the flavors were authentic but overall the meal was mediocre. We did not find it worth the money and were overall disappointed with the meal. Serving rancid oil and over salting a delicate dish like shrimp are just inexcusable.

    What a hidden gem! We ate in the room at the back, which is actually a totally separate entrance, that had a live guitarist. We all commented that even though we were right in front of the stage we could still talk to each other. The food was beyond delicious and the portions were perfect for sharing. The server did an excellent job of recommending delicious wine based off of our tastes. Highly, highly recommend.
