Opuntia Cafe

Loved the atmosphere and food. The mushroom toast was one of the best things I’ve ever eaten! The only drawback was that they didn’t have a changing table for my toddler and we had to hike across the street to the movie theater to change a diaper. I’d definitely go back, but I hope they address the lack of a changing table!

What a great place with a view of the market/railroad track. An open concept restaurant with lots of light and fresh air. Music is soft yet it’s there so friends are able to converse.

Japanese Bowl flavours are delicate (yet the presentation isn’t - I would have preferred if the yams were cut in bite size pieces)

The reason for the three stars is because I found a dirt INSIDE the water container!!!

This is your inclusive stop at the Railyards in Santa Fe! Between the chic industrial vibes, the open garage doors leading to the balcony, and the super friendly staff, you really can't go wrong.

Food offerings are adventurous but grounded (foodies and comfort food fiends can dine together happily here), the coffee and tea are expertly brewed.

Most of the plants around the restaurant are for sale, mostly ranging $20-$70.

To get there, exit the Rail runner, turn right and cross the tracks. Entrance is on the side of the building. Go up the stairs and you'll find the restaurant entrance.

Private non-gendered restrooms.

Growers market is Tuesday and Saturday in the summer. Local artisans sell in the building across the tracks next to the Second Street Brewery on Sundays.

Current rail runner fare is $2.25/person for a day pass from ABQ to Santa Fe. Totally affordable fare to get up to a destination meal spot!

Pretty cool atmosphere, lots of plants and even a koi pond! That being said, the food was good, if a touch pricey. Portion size was decent as well. We'll probably go back and check them out for breakfast another time.

The physical space is lovely - very airy and green. I was there on a Sunday morning and everyone who was working seemed incredibly stressed and surprised (?) it was so busy. The hostess seemed super young and inept. Totally in over her head. Toast was good albeit kind of a rip for the portion size. The presentation was kind of hilarious and looked like something I’d make when I’m stoned… probably won’t bother going back.
