On a nice day, it has great courtyard seating. The food is meh - I would suggest brunch on a weekend if you really want to try it.

Honestly haven't heard anything good about the place other than the courtyard

Nice location - probably the worst food poisoning I've ever had. And I have a pretty iron stomach

Their margaritas are fantastic. The food is good, but not great.

Can't really compare it to Lola. I absolutely LOVE Lola, but there's no brunch, no true outdoor dining, and it's completely different food...spanish vs. mexican.

Me and the wife lived at esplanade at city park before moving uptown, and we were highly disappointed with the food at Santa fe--gave them plenty of chances given the 1/4 mile walk away. Would not recommend

I agree, not comparable.

One is good, one isn't.

Last meal I had there was quite good. We stuck to the appetizers though.

The two times I've been there were due to Lola's wait being extremely long.

OK to drink and have a few apps on the patio, but the food is par at best.

$1 mimosas during brunch. That's the real reason to go.
