What to Order at Santa Fe Cafe
Mid-Island · 5 bites we recommend — tasted in person, never sponsored.
New Mexican rather than Mexican — a distinction worth caring about, and nobody else here makes it. Open since 1995, with a rooftop cantina built around an adobe kiva fireplace and ranchero guitar some nights.
