I went to dinner a Galisteo with my daughter. We shared a salad and a variety of tapas as well as a couple of glasses of wine. They have a nice variety of tapas (as well as mains) and most of them were delicious.

This restaurant is very small so you definitely want and need a reservation. I saw the reviews about being seated at a cramped table and too close to other diners, and I have to agree having seen the set of three tables to which these reviewers were likely referring.

We ate at Galisteo Bistro on our recent trip to Santa Fe. The decor was elegant, the service was professional, and the food was delicious. The mussel appetizer (one of the specials) was fantastic!

So refreshing! Wonderful polite service. Everyone owners included pitch in to make your experience amazing. Exceptionally well run. Food and wine selections delicious. Staying at Inn of the Governors really handy. Reservation by mid day recommended.

We started with the duck liver pate which was just o.k. and the presentation was not very appealing. My husband had the fish special ($27) which was nothing special... More

Right around the corner from Inn of the Governors where we stayed. We arrived without reservations, but they were very gracious, and the food was excellent.

I brought two friends with me this time and we had a great meal all the way around. We were well advised on the wine pairings and the service was impeccable!
