Mucho Gusto

The food is like home made!Such a good authentic Mexican restaurant, with a large selection of tastes but of course for me the mole take the price!Michele the server is absolutely charming and make us laugh, that is good service!Very cozy atmosphere and don't forget the flan!

Service was slow, but food was genuine. Small dining room. My salmon was over cooked (so easy to do, especially with small filets), but everything else on the plate was satisfying, especially the grilled veggies and black beans. Kids enjoyed their tacos. I tried the mole and was blown away by the spice profile of that sauce.

I decided to drive around downtown area of Santa Fe and found this restaurant tucked away. I had seen it listed on places to eat before so thought I'd try it. At first I was worried it wasn't open since there were no cars (there were people inside eating and apparently had walked over to the restaurant). I was surprised the hostess was not the most friendly, but I did get seated immediately. I decided to have a shrimp special they were having that night which was about $20. It was good and pollution right for me since I wasn't overly hungry and wanted something on the lighter side. The restuarant was quite simple but clean and nice. Server was friendly. Overall, I was expecting something more but overall the restaurant was decent.

I've been here a few times in the last year when I swing through town to visit my folks. Each time when they suggest eating here I draw a blank as to where it is until we pull up to the out of the way building it's in. I actually wonder if the two buildings surrounding the parking lot were an old hotel once upon a time.As nondescript as the building is, the food is anything but. The steak fajitas were cooked to perfection, and the guacamole was just so fresh and flavorful. The waitresses were nice and attentive, and very Covid aware, cleaning between customers and wearing gloves and a mask.I'll come back I'm sure, and by my next visit I should be able to remember it based on the consistently good meals.

A convenient, quaint restaurant you can walk to from downtown Santa Fe that serves great margaritas and a chicken dish called "The Bomb" it's delicious and unique. No hassle parking if you drive.

We had lunch atMucho Gusto today and it was charming. The restaurant is in a back corner of a nondescript old shopping center and is three smallish rooms of tables, so definitely on the smaller side. There were two waitresses handling all of the tables, although one seemed to be in charge of taking the orders and bringing food and the other seemed to handling all of the beverages. Both very friendly and attentive. The food was the shining star. My brother got the lamb tacos, dad got the salmon and I got "The Bomb" which is a chicken breast stuffed with cheese, sundried tomatoes, Serrano peppers and almonds, and then topped with a delicious cream sauce. Food was fresh, unique and delicious. We also asked for (and paid for) chips and salsa. The red salsa was smoky and the green salsa was tangy and fabulous! It's not a fancy experience, but it is a uniquely Santa Fe experience, and the food was epic. We will come back.

Mucho Gusto is one of my favorites in Santa Fe! Beautifully, professionally ran -- I don't think I've ever had a bad meal there.I love the mole enchiladas -- one of my favorites. I also really like their ice cream chocolate pie. If you're a chocolate guy like me -- simply to die for.The service is always top notch and efficient. The food is great and comes out consistent. Plenty of parking. And really great prices!I love this place and keep coming back, it's a charming restaurant with great food and excellent service.One point of feedback is -- their guacamole portions are very small and it's not the best item on the menu. If they could make them bigger and better it would be great.Everything else his awesome, especially fajitas and enchiladas!

A big thank you to yelpers for helping to steer us to this little restaurant tucked away behind a small building. The service was friendly and the food was fresh and tasty. We started with the special agave wine margaritas. Very refreshing and yummy! This is a must try. I had their special trout with a garlic sauce and hubby had the Beef Carnitas. Both were served with black beans, rice and fresh well seasoned mixed vegetables. The trout also came with a Chicken posole soup. The hominy and mixed vegetables were delicious in the chicken stock. Absolutely no complaints, delicioso i!!!Oh, and I must mention the salad we shared. The mixed greens were nicely chilled and crisp with some fresh radish slices and a tangy orange dressing topped with crisp tortilla chips. This is a great place for traditional Mexican food served with fresh ingredients prepared well.

Food was good needs more traditional Mew Mexican plates. Texmex items good but honor the unique New Mexican flavors. Service was good. Hard to find off of Paseo in back of complex. Old crowd in attendance.

We had confirmed reservations for 6:30 PM on 8/31/2 4 and MUCHO GUSTO WAS CLOSED WITHOUT NOTIFYING US. We arrived after walking there from the plaza only to see a sign posted "restaurant closed due to staff shortage" This is unacceptable especially on a busy holiday weekend since we should have been contacted by phone. We tried three other restaurants in town with no availability. We were fortunate that the Coyote Cafe Cantina was able to accommodate us after a 30-minute wait which actually was a great meal on their outdoor patio.
