Midtown Bistro

Very disappointed!! We drove from ABQ, and had reservations. We were seated pretty reasonably fast given its Valentine’s Day. We waited 20 mins before a woman came to serve us water, she wasn’t even the waitress. By the time the waitress got to us, we ordered right away. The food came out pretty fast but wasn’t anything to write home about, which is very sad considering they charge $70-90 an entree. We got the shrimp as an appetizer and they give you 4 pieces for $25. The shrimp wasn’t even cleaned that well. As pretty as our entrees were, they were bland, and boring. I’ve had better steak at Texas Roadhouse, it needed A1 and they didn’t offer any, and my husband got the sea bass but again, he had to add salt. I had to cut my steak with a butter knife. The waitress wasn’t as attending to o

I ate here recently and my primary issue with this restaurant was the price point. The food is good, but not outstanding. The service we had was reasonable, but not outstanding. The decor and atmosphere is nice. The shock was the price. My party paid around $70 per person (including tip) for a salad and a main and no drinks. At this price point there are many alternatives in Santa Fe that are outstanding on all fronts. I will not be returning here. One notable detail from our dining experience. We had some bread to start our meal and I do believe that it was the same sliced bread that one can get at Whole Foods in Santa Fe. It was served cold and did not appear to be freshly sliced. I cannot recall the last time I was served bread like this at a restaurant.

My goodness, listen to these snobs below complaining and making up lies. There is NO WAY they waited for 45 minutes and that the Manager didn't notice. This place is a sensational place - the food is outstanding, the decore is amazing and elegant, the staff is excellent. Best french fries I have eaten in my life - yeah, that's right - French Fries! The burger was perfectly cooked and everything on it was fresh and perfectly executed. My date's pastrami sandwich was amazing. All of these fancy restaurants in Santa Fe that just don't meet the challenge - and here is this one, right in the middle of town waiting to impress! If you are a snob - don't go! Go to Geronimos and pay $150 for a steak that is better almost any place and mingle with your snobby friends. This place is not for you. And

Attended the first time on NYE and did their 3 course meal set up. The food and drinks were delicious and the atmosphere was romantic and festive. The service was ok, but it was a busy night. I enjoyed the overall experience and do plan to come back for another go.

I had the crabcakes with salad, and my friend had the fish and fries. Crabcakes were delicious as was the salad. The fish and french fries were crispy and flavorful. Iced tea was good and not diluted as often results in other restaurants.
