Zacatlan Restaurant

I’m hard pressed to remember if I’ve ever been to a Mexican restaurant truly deserving of five stars. This one does. Creative, complex but not fussy dishes trying to be something they’re not. The duo of poached pear salad (yes, you read that right) and the organic stuffed squash blossoms (yes you read that right as well) were remarkable…such wonderfully different tastes. And the tortilla crusted vegetarian chicken relleno was superb. Bravo.

This place was great. We were wary when we walked in with no wait to an almost empty dining room, but it just hasn't been discovered yet. The appetizers were good and the meals were delicious. My only complaint would be that the portion sizes were a little small, but I don't really need that much food, now do I... Try it, you'll like it. And the restaurant did fill up as we sat there.

Wonderful place for Brunch. Staff was friendly and helpful. Menu selections quite interesting. We had the Juevos Rancheros and the Fry Bread with Venison. Thankfully they excluded the burning hot sauces so one could actually taste the food! Very delicious. The Patio was a good place to sit, though inside there is also a fine dining atmosphere. We will return sometime and try other items on the menu.

Exceptional from start to finish! Had a fantastic dinner on the patio. Enjoyed guacamole, stuffed squash blossoms, entrees and are so glad we didn’t skip the churros for dessert. Server had an excellent understanding of the menu. Each item was plated beautifully. Beautiful patio and relaxed comfortable atmosphere.

I had my birthday dinner here with my fiancé last night. The building is very cute, very Santa Fe. The service was great. The entrees and dessert were an explosion of flavor and the portions were bigger than I expected. I can tell that they use high-quality ingredients and the chef/owner is passionate about this restaurant. Everything had a unique spin to it and was plated beautifully. The wine was amazing. It was definitely more than just dinner, it was an experience. Thank you for making my birthday special, Zacatlan!
