Joy's Sushi Bar · St. Michael's corridor
A no-frills counter-service sushi bar attached to the Santa Fe Asian Market on the St. Michael's corridor, where the draw is the fish itself. The Santa Fe Reporter's 'Jump for Joy's' feature praised it for some of the freshest fish among the city's sushi options, and the 2026 Best of Santa Fe guide named it a Best New Restaurant nominee. Order the nigiri and sashimi selections cut to order at the counter, then browse the market on your way out.
El Callejón Taqueria & Grill · Santa Fe
Family-owned down-home Mexican serving tacos, mole, and fajitas with Southwestern flavor.
La Lecheria Railyard
La Lecheria makes small-batch New Mexico ice cream, now scooping from the Railyard after leaving its original Marcy Street shop. The Santa Fe New Mexican's Taste column flagged its green chile ice cream and rotating seasonal flavors under chef Joel Coleman of Fire and Hops. Order the green chile ice cream, or the four-scoop flight to work through the rotation.
