   We went there for Sunday Easter brunch. No one gave us menus or told us about the buffet as we sat down. No one would have served us if I hadn’t asked for a menu. Our drinks took almost longer than the French toast we had ordered, and the buffet was $85/per person which there was no sign or indication of what the price was. It was mediocre at best and did not include any drinks, including coffee and tea. We felt very blindsided by the price when we got our bill and nothing was done to help amend it or really show any sympathy. It embarrassed me greatly in front of my mother in law since I had picked the restaurant. Not to mention, put a bad taste in our mouths for our Easter holiday. Overall, not a bad place for a meal but in a phrase I would describe Julia as “overpriced and underserved”.

   We have been here for dinner several times and always good. This was our first mid-afternoon visit. They only had one of the bars open, but the food and service were excellent. Great margaritas, especially their one with the apricot spirits. Definitely be back!

   My husband and I and our two friends had a lovely experience at Julia. Carol, our server, was perfect--friendly and knowledgeable and there when we needed her. The food was excellent, and the drinks and wine were well prepared and pleasing. This was one of our favorite places to dine in Santa Fe.

   Our experience here was terrific. The staff, all of them, were professional and courteous, and were exceptional in working together seamlessly (seating, wait, clearing the table). And then, an unexpected surprise. Shortly before we finished our meal, we heard live music, Spanish guitars, coming from the bar area, so we went in there for another cocktail and enjoyed the excellent music. We talked to one of the managers and she told us that since COVID, they've been rebuilding the music scene with both locals and tourists (we are tourists). IMHO, they are doing a great job. This Spanish guitar group plays in the bar the first Wednesday of every month (for now at least). You will not regret coming g here!

   The restaurant was closed when we arrived for our reservation. I wish we hadn’t gone through the trouble of reserving, doing the valet parking, etc to only find that it was closed. Frustrating experience. Our reservation was for 11:45am on Sunday.

   We stayed at the hotel which was lovely. Very convenient to a number of locations we wanted to see on our trip. The restaurant was conveniently located inside the hotel. Very nice atmosphere. Service and food was great. Had a good variety of food selection, but a bit pricy. Would definitely recommend if staying at the hotel.

    We went to Julia for Valentines day. The tables had white table cloths and little lamps on each table. The restaurant was full but it was still nice and quiet. I had the. Osso Bucco and my Fiancee had the Strip. Both were very good.
