Santa Fe


Local artists and visiting celebrities outnumber tourists at this long-standing and always packed Santa Fe favorite. Breakfast is the meal of choice, with fantastic burritos and other Southwestern dishes, but lunch is pretty damn tasty too; try the perfectly prepared chile rellenos (stuffed chile peppers), or the rota of daily specials. The shelf of books helps entertain the little ones.
