Santa Fe Bistro - Southwestern restaurant (US) in Creve Coeur - 12316 Olive Blvd, USA

The service was excellent: attentive, polite and checked in with us when needed. The food was amazing: large portions, fresh, flavorful, high quality & expertly prepared. Will definitely be returning to try other dishes.

For reference, long ago, I was a chef, and so my food and ambiance standards are very high. First, we had multiple checks by the owner to make sure everything was ok. I was torn between the *huge* wraps or the delicious bowls, but in the end went with a spinach salad with chicken. It's a perfect day, 71 degrees and we're sitting in the outdoor area next to the flower garden. The chips and salsa are home made. The salsa is very mild, but fresh. My salad had fresh strawberries, potato straws, goat cheese and just enough vinaigrette. I came with my son and daughter, who got Al Pastor Pizza and the Turkey Wrap. The pizza had cilantro, onion and grilled pineapple...and the meat was seasoned with saffron, very good...a salute to the recipe's middle eastern origins. The wrap was very fresh and light with Boar's Head Gold turkey (the best) and a hint of garlic. The vegetables were sauteed with enough bacon for flavor, but it was still healthy. She loved the French fries and homemade pickles. Of the 3, the pizza was the best. It was ridiculous. Even though we were full, we ordered some chocolate cake with ice cream. See the photo, it was presented as well as it tasted. Overall, a perfect experience.

Great little restaurant with a Mexican flair. Thursday nights they have some great Latin music with guitar and percussion. They were pretty busy when we got there and the service started out bad. But the manager came up to our table and when he recognized that we had not been waited on in a timely manner. He comped us a bottle of white wine. Really standup guy. Great customer service. The fish tacos were really good and the black beans were excellent. We all thoroughly enjoyed our meals. Only criticism would be for the cilantro rice, which had some kind of oil in it so it was pretty oily at the bottom. Both of the salsas with the chips was excellent.

Went for Farshid Etniko (music), was pleasantly surprised with the food. The Frito Misto is a superb value- enough for 4 people. Decent wine list and original cocktails, their hatch chili burger no longer listed on the menu but they'll still oblige. Melts in your mouth. Excellent guacamole! Checked on by multiple members of the team and the lovely Shaheen was our main server and he was wonderful. Would go again. Glad to see they are pretty regularly packed. Gorgeous outdoor section in the back!

All the workers here were very welcoming and constantly checking in on us. I got the chorizo hash and it was delicious! The chef also come to check we were enjoying the food! Highly recommend coming here!!

We ordered fried cauliflower bites and vegetable flatbread. Nachos and dip were complimentary. The green spicy dip was awesome, and food was tasty. Our table server Chris, was very friendly, and he even suggested another restaurant for trying spicy dips, Las Chupacabras. We were so full after lunch but had to try Tres Leches desert. Will definitely go again.

This place has a fun atmosphere and an excellent patio area! We had great service, went for brunch on a Sunday. Breakfast tacos and sangria were tasty- portions reflective of price points. We had no wait time which was a definite treat. Highly recommend and will be back!

We had dinner on the beautiful patio. Cocktails & wine list were great, something for everyone. Santa Fe Shrimp cooked perfectly. My BF had the fish tacos, not heavily breaded light & crisp. I had the rolled tacos crunchy smoky just delish. EAT here!! Support local! Danielle A.
