Cafe Sonder

This is the third time I've been here. All great experiences. The food is excellent for the price. Medium size draft beer selection that is rotating, lots of good beers. Consistently good service and a beautiful patio with lots of seating. Surprised that we never had to wait for a table. Two dollar beers every Friday 3-6. Everything is solidly good, with a wide variety of options including northern New Mexican cuisine. Crispy fries!! It's hard to admit but it's definitely an upgrade from the Zia diner (previous restaurant at this location).

Why did I wait so long? Lime Coconut water drink, $5 Chicken rice soup with ginger, almonds & chile, $9 Special of the day, Fried Tofu spinach salad with fresh figs, butternut squash, pomegranate & sunflower seeds, $12 Tres Leches dessert, $7 Coffee, $2 The firm salted broth balanced well with the ample fresh minced ginger in the soup. Salad: Fall vegetarian perfection. Dessert is sharing portion and delicious. Coffee not my favorite. Vast restaurant seating.

OMG! The Oyster Po-Boy sandwich is SO satisfying. We went back specifically to have this again. Just be aware it's only available during the week. They make all their own breads, including the best gluten-free roll that I think I've ever had (shown here on the Po-Boy). Do NOT pass up their handmade seeded bread sticks. Service was a little off on one out of 3 visits by an inexperienced waiter, but the food was great.

This restaurant is extremely over priced for extremely bland food. The Pastitsio dish was absolutely terrible. They doused it in cinnamon. No one at the table could eat it. Their fettuccine Alfredo tasted like noodles with no sauce, that is how bland the sauce was. The vegan chorizo tacos were also bland but very spicy like i was just eating chili powder. Their sweet potato fries were good but it’s kinda hard to mess up taking things from the freezer to the fryer. I paid $30+ dollars for a meal I couldn’t even eat. They also added gratuity to our checks for 5 people, which is absurd. Won’t be coming back. Headed to McDonalds for some food that actually has flavor.

The food was tasty. Went in for brunch on a Saturday. Initially I had the Yucatan eggs but upon receiving them it had a mountain of pico de gallo all over it. I am deathly allergic to onions, sadly nowhere is it mentioned. Our server was nice enough to exchange it for something else but that was the last we saw of her. The service was terrible. I sat with an empty glass the entire time. We ordered a side of chipotle aioli and we only recieved it after asking for it three times and it was another server who brought it. Overall a bad experience. But I am starting to believe Santa fe has a thing against young Latinas. Everywhere we go we have received subpar service.
