We had 4 nights in Santa Fe - and as loyal Triple D'ers, we had to check out the Zia Diner - it was good enough we ate there twice. The main courses were good - not great, but the appetizers were amazing, and the key lime pie milkshake was addicting! Standouts are the tequila shrimp (with a spicy citrus... more

This place is located close to downtown and was pretty busy on a Friday night. Parking was a challenge. We went because we had seen it on the Food Network show. We had three entrees, two of which were specials for the night, four drinks (two beers, two glasses of wine), and one dessert. The ribs with slaw and onion... more

I had breakfast at Zia recently and loved it. Had Eggs and Rellenos which came with awesome hash browns and pinto beans. I had "Christmas" on it, which is both red and green chile. The red was medium hot with a wonderful flavor. The green also was very good and spicy. Service was prompt, I received a pitcher of water... more

The food was excellent. We ate the Mac-n-Cheese with green chiles and it was ridiculously good. The tamales are also excellent. The only downfall was the 1 waiter for every 20 tables. Service was slow; got the apps before my drink slow. Hire more people and this place goes from very good to excellent. more

My husband and I are staying in Santa Fe for a month and gradually working our way through restaurants recommended on The Food Network and other websites. We had high hopes for the Zia Diner, but the food was far short of outstanding. I had the meatloaf special with green chile and pinon. The meat was overworked, making it quite... more

This is a super place to sit on the patio and have a great hot turkey sandwich (with yummy sweet potato fries!) and people watch close to downtown. Hubby had the green chile pie and pronounced it fantastic.Friendly service and cool bar area remniscent of the 50's with a soda fountain and everything. Price is a great value! more

The Zia Diner in Santa Fe has to be one the best resturant in all of Northern New Mexico! We frequently eat there, and every time, everything is exceptional!!! The food is very unique, and the service is always exceptional. Food Network's 'Diner, Drive in's, and Dives' fetured them in one of their shows, and they did for very good... more

We made a special trip to Santa Fe when visiting Albuquerque just to eat here - we saw it featured on the tv show Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, and my husband couldn't wait to get there. It is really more of a local cafe/bistro than a diner - pleasant interior with a wonderful shaded patio. The food was excellent and... more

I'm a Santa Fe resident and had a bad meal/service at Zia about 7 years ago. Just tried again today after seeing the Diner's Drivins and Dives episode - that really raved about this place. What a dissapointment! Poor food, no atmosphere and no service - and to mention the 18% surcharge for our party of only 6. We had... more
