## La Mama: A Santa Fe Gem

Located steps from The Plaza, La Mama is a wine bar, restaurant, cafe and specialty market. By day this spot pulls fresh coffee and serves up full breakfast and lunch offerings. The lovingly rendered, light-filled 1915 bungalow has ground floor banquettes, a cozy mezzanine, a charming covered front porch and a convivial backyard patio.

By night, La Mama transforms into a delicious dinner hang out serving food crafted from local and seasonal ingredients alongside a full list of natural wines, local tap beers and an extensive selection of non-alcoholic beverages. Start your meal with house-made focaccia with whipped local-milk ricotta, organic chicken liver paté or lamb crepinette. Continue on to larger dishes like the veg-friendly winter squash gnocchi garnished with piñon dust or the confit duck with black lentils and chard. Finish it all with something sweet like the salt-baked apple.

    La Mama is probably my favorite place for dinner as a local. The ingredients are super high-quality, prepared delicious and not fussy ways. Great natural wines and really lovely service. It's not super fancy but the food feels special with a lovely calm ambience.

    What a great find! We live in Santa Fe and this is becoming one of our favorite restaurants. The food and service are both superb and its casual, understated elegance is a refreshing change from some of the bigger, more high-profile restaurants in this town. Duck confit is the best I’ve ever tasted! But everything is good.

    What a delightful restaurant ! We were sat in the coziest dining room with a gorgeous bottle of sparkling rose from Greece. We tried most everything on the menu and loved it all. Almonds and olives, radish salad, spreads, house-made focaccia and ricotta, duck confit, gnocchi and blue corn polenta with Parmesan! Yum! New Favorite place! Hel was great!

    Fabulous find in the heart of Santa Fe! We enjoyed a romantic dinner starting with a lovely focaccia bread with EVOO. The sommelier was super knowledgeable and helped with organic wine options. Our entrees, the trout and gnocchi, were both superb. Can’t wait to dine there again!

    Great Experience for Valentine’s Day! Very romantic, with excellent service. Main course was fantastic, my wife had lamb and I had the monk fish. The sweet apple desert was O.K. 10/10 Would go again!
