Top 5 Mexican & New Mexican in Santa Fe

  1. 1

    La Choza Restaurant

    Near Railyard

    Voted the #1 New Mexican restaurant by Santa Fe Reporter readers — the Carswell family's 1983 sister to The Shed, with award-winning red chile the Pasatiempo review calls "unparalleled."

  2. 2

    The Shed

    Downtown Plaza

    A family-owned Plaza institution since 1953 and a James Beard America's Classics recipient — red chile is ground in-house every morning, and the blue-corn enchiladas are the textbook Northern New Mexican benchmark.

  3. 3

    Tomasita's Santa Fe New Mexican Restaurant

    Railyard

    Maryol/Gundrey family-run since 1974 and celebrating its 50th year — perennially voted Best New Mexican and Best Margarita by Santa Fe Reporter readers, with a gold-coin margarita locals treat as the house pour.

  4. 4

    Tia Sophia's

    Downtown Plaza

    The downtown landmark credited with putting the first breakfast burrito on a menu — a Santa Fe Reporter Best of Santa Fe regular, with red and green chile sauces the plaza crowd treats as the house benchmark.

  5. 5

    Plaza Cafe Downtown

    Downtown Plaza

    Santa Fe's oldest restaurant (1905), Razatos family-owned since 1947 — the carne adovada breakfast burrito and huevos rancheros are the classic Plaza-era Northern New Mexican plate.
