La Plazuela was the hotel’s original 1920s patio and it retains that sunlit Old World charm. Skylights flood the dining room with natural light and handsome carved furnishings, artisanal lighting, and our much-loved hand painted windows create a beautiful, inviting room to gather, to dine and to make memories in. The menu was crafted to showcase old favorites with New World influences and authentic New Mexican cuisine. La Plazuela at La Fonda on the Plaza is Santa Fe’s gathering place. Come dine with us!

We had such an incredible experience at La Plazuela! I don’t typically take the time to write reviews as detailed as this one, however, the service, food, and entire experience was so outstanding that I had to share it. I’ve been to many restaurants in Santa Fe and all over the country for that matter (NY, Chicago, LA) and I have to say I felt more taken care of and that the level of customer service was on a whole different level. Our server El Bryan (yes “The Bryan”) went above and beyond to ensure that our experience was top-notch. From amazing wine and dessert pairings to thoughtful touches, we were beyond blown away. I was a server for seven years and I often find myself disappointed when we go out, especially to higher priced restaurants but this experience did not in any way disappoint. The manager even took the time to come over to our table at the end to ensure that we had a stellar experience. If you find yourself in Santa Fe, please make a reservation and visit La Plazuela.

They were over booked. We had reservations for 6:30PM and had to wait for a table until 7:05PM. Our dinner plates were served at the same time they had just finished the guacamole appetizer made in front of us. We had no time to enjoy the freshly made guacamole and drinks. This was a special occasion dinner and felt rushed. Quite disappointing.

A beautiful environment for a holiday pre-concert dinner with friends! The entrees were delicious and our wine was excellent. Our waiter, Angel, could not have been more hospitable and attentive!

As a Santa Fe resident, La Plazuela is at the top of my list for dining. Delicious Northern NM dishes, great service and an abundance of atmosphere abounds in this historical Plaza destination. Always a bustling center for visitors and locals at the “ end of the trail.”
