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!

    Love the ambiance, the hospitality and food. Table side guacamole is a must. The silver coin margaritas were amazing. We had the green shredded beef enchiladas which were great. Visit the bar prior for a cocktail. If you are lucky you might see a mariachi band parade for a bride and groom.
