   I ordered the elk tenderloin for the first time. Hands down it is much better than the beef tenderloin. I wish the potato serving was bit larger though. The downside was the pecan pie. I’m a former Texas resident and unfortunately in Texas the pecan pie would probably used as sporting clays.

   I haven't traveled to Santa Fe for many years, but returning to the Coyote Cafe was a treat. Great, unique food and wonderful service. Plus a great wine list.

   Our group of 5 was well taken care of by Ally, one of the best wait staff we’ve had in ages. And everyone else who served us was great too, attentive and friendly. The food was creative and delicious. The drinks were special. The dining space was relaxing, quiet, and full of art. We all had a memorable time and would certainly recommend.

   The grilled Maine lobster tails arrived cold, and were so small that it seems unlikely they were legally fished. The Vietnamese sweet chili sauce that was supposed to be an accompaniment was nowhere in evidence. While the service was friendly, it was not especially attentive. For example, we had to ask for the cornbread that had been promised but did not arrive with the meal.

   On our Saturday date night, time stood still at Coyote Cafe. We were welcomed by every staff member as the sparkling red 600 piece glass chandelier sent out radiant hints of surprises. Now that we think about it, maybe that’s why they call it the Coyote Cafe, full of surprises. Visiting from the plains, there was nothing plain about savory Kabocha Squash soup with marvelous pinyon nuts, with just the right swirl of chili and sweet corn biscuits on the side. Next, the beets and burrata appetizer lived up to its beautiful swirled presentation. With great expectations then, one of us had quail and the other had sea bass. Our taste bud expectations were exceeded. Not only were both dishes pleasing to look at, they were layered with unusual flavors. Quail plus… and sea bass over squash and …. Now we were faced with the ultimate dilemma. One of our top five meals ever, yet dessert was highly recommended by our server, Simon. We are so glad we followed his advice, and had a lemon cake that is both sweet and tart, as well as a uniquely not over sweet. Simon also surprised us with a special caramelized banana cream pie. So we celebrated our engagement trip here, many many years ago, with such great food it was as if it had all been prepared just for us. We will be back to treat ourselves, now that we feel even younger.
