Paloma Restaurant

The outside belies the inside at this easy to overlook dining experience along Guadalupe St. The inside has a small bar (4 seats?), and maybe 2 dozen tables yet with a high ceiling it doesn’t feel too small. With varying wall textures, etched glass, and eclectic decorations the vibe is a cozy hip. Tables are hard to get but once you sit down and have that first crafted cocktail it’s all worth. The menu listing is pleasantly limited thus giving one the assurance that each item is chef driven and crafted to be enjoyed. They have 3 - 4 large plates with a much broader selection of smaller plates and appetizers. Each one is an adventurous blend of Southwest and Mexican cuisine.

I was told the menu varies according to what is locally sourced by the season.

All in all a welcome addition to Santa Fe for the dining experience.

Great dining experience from start to finish. Sat at the bar and enjoyed attentive service and well made cocktails. Started with Black Bean Nachos (highly recommend) and then moved on to steak Fajitas. Everything was fresh and flavourful. Yum!

The food was delicious but not 5 stars. Still certainly not a disappointment. The mole chicken n sea bass was our favorite of the dishes. Great margaritas with a twist. Our server was great but she was also the bartender so very busy. The outdoor space / patio is cute.

Absolutely delightful in all levels of food and hospitality. Excellent atmosphere, service, cocktails, and food. Make a reservation!!! it is super busy and booked up. It’s comfortable and beautiful inside, nice layout and the bar area just looked so chic. If you are fish-lover and want dishes like ceviche, book an early spot! Even though our spot was around 7pm all the fish was already gone. Every single fish dish was sold out, gone. We didn’t know if we would be happy with other items but we ordered and ordered and ordered… not a single dish we had was bad or boring. We were blown away. The margaritas was fantastic too but we were too busy eating the chicken mole the superstar sopecitos, and smothering everything in their green and red sauces. We could eat there every night. If you are visiting or live in the area you must check this amazing spot. It’s def going into my repeat list!

Seats were too close together food was decent the chicken could have been cooked more it was a bit rubbery. The margarita was good but I had too much ice in it so I felt a bit ripped off. Cool day spot interesting funky electronic music nice vibe great service just a few kinks to work out.
