    Food was ok. The first table we got was EXTREMELY loud, but the restaurant was accommodating and moved us.

    Having been there many times in the past 20 years this was the worst experience we’ve had in this restaurant. With many other great new restaurants it’s a shame of the poor service that has become of Santa Fe Steakhouse. Hostess was rude, literally just threw the menus on the table and not even a welcome. Waited 10 minutes and no one approached our table, restaurant wasn’t even busy and there were a lot of servers around. My wife and I decided to leave and server didn’t even acknowledged nor apologies for such a terrible service, or in this case non-service, we received. Such a shame!

    Excellent experience with associates from out of town. Rooftop reservation that Jim GM assembled, and serviced, and Julio V pulled off with a professional touch!
