Arroyo Vino is predictable in good ways. The service is correct, professional, and unobtrusive, and the food is reliable. One might wish for a little more variety in the menu, although I realize that comes in on the nights of themed dinners.

About the restaurant

## La Mama: A Santa Fe Gem

Located steps from The Plaza, La Mama is a wine bar, restaurant, cafe and specialty market. By day this spot pulls fresh coffee and serves up full breakfast and lunch offerings. The lovingly rendered, light-filled 1915 bungalow has ground floor banquettes, a cozy mezzanine, a charming covered front porch and a convivial backyard patio.

By night, La Mama transforms into a delicious dinner hang out serving food crafted from local and seasonal ingredients alongside a full list of natural wines, local tap beers and an extensive selection of non-alcoholic beverages. Start your meal with house-made focaccia with whipped local-milk ricotta, organic chicken liver paté or lamb crepinette. Continue on to larger dishes like the veg-friendly winter squash gnocchi garnished with piñon dust or the confit duck with black lentils and chard. Finish it all with something sweet like the salt-baked apple.

We had the best experience. The waiter was very nice and recognized it was our anniversary and gave us well wishes. The food was great. Blue corn muffins were the best.

D.H. Lescombes Winery & Bistro in Albuquerque is a great place for lunch, particularly a buisness lunch. The staff was excellent and provided space for a business lunch to proceed seamlessly.

Great food, had lobster ravioli & 2 hangar steak entrees. Food was fantastic, although had to ask for beverage refills multiple times. Very polite & friendly server, however inattentive and after paying, he disappeared.

Beautiful patio, fun atmosphere and great New Mexican food. Best of all they take reservations which a lot of New Mexican places in Santa Fe don’t. Ten minute drive outside SF but worth it.

Our party of 3 sat at the Su Room Sushi Bar on the side edge. We got to see all the preparations and chat with the Chef, Sarah. She dazzled us on the 3-course chef's tasting menu. Every bite was divine and beautifully prepared. Our server, Martin, was excellent, helpful, and friendly. The cocktails and sake were delicious. Loved the ambiance and vibe. Truly memorable for us and we hope to come back someday when we visit the area again.
