Red Enchilada - Santa Fe

It's an unpretentious restaurant with great staff, and great food at a reasonable price. Definitely recommend the carne adovada plate, but you could order blindfolded and couldn't go wrong.

I was super hangry and just about road-raged, on Osage headed towards Baja Taco for a quick fix, when I spotted this little place and thought to myself... Oh...that looks like a perfect alternative to a big-box restaurant. Boy was I spot-on. This place was !! I got the carne asada burrito. Best I ever had. Steak was large-cut slices. Grilled to absolute perfection. Chile (christmas) may be the best I ever had. The red just rocked my world. Sopa was so delectable out of the bag, I had to mow it down before I got to the burritto. I ordered at the counter to-go. Took a good 15 minutes but was SO worth the wait. No stars detracted for that wait because there is no reason to not expect to wait 15 minutes (or more) for amazing fresh cooked food even if you are grumpy-hangry. The final satisfaction was beyond worth it. I think my bill was $13 and change. Which I was thrilled with for the quality and portion size. Panza llena, corazon contento. Can 't wait to eat there again. I am hoping they sell containers of their chile to take home.

Red Enchilada Sunday, October 16, 2022 9:30 am 5 stars Red Enchilada, easily accessible on Osage Avenue just off Cerrillos, has been in business in Santa Fe for 19 years yet remains undiscovered by many. The menu is New Mexican with a Salvadorian influence. The cozy neighborhood atmosphere was welcoming on a rainy Sunday morning in October. Ordered the Super Combo Breakfast with green chile topped scrambled eggs, carne adovada, refried beans and potatoes. All was tasty, though the green chile and the carne adovada sauces could have been hotter. Also ordered Los Amigos, two poached eggs and spinach swimming in mild red chile sauce, with three rashers of (somewhat dry) bacon and potatoes. The serving was ample though the red chile sauce was not as spicy and hot as others in Santa Fe. The hot chocolate was especially sweet and delicious. The wait staff was warm and friendly as well as solicitous of our comfort. We watched a few minutes of an international soccer game on one of two TV screens, which was different and fun. Our SoundCheck app rates the sound level as Moderate (63 Db). All in all a very positive experience. Red Enchilada is definitely worth a visit. Note: If you pay with a credit card there is a three percent service charge

More surprising visit proved to be an excellent place to eat. excellent experience with great eating. I'm looking forward to going to dinner again.
