   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.

   The overall experience dining at Julia was disappointing. The weight staff was very hard to understand, when they were explaining specials and trying to answer questions we had on the menu. The chicken dish that was ordered, at $40, was the worst piece of chicken we’ve ever had, so tough you couldn’t even chew it. Two of the menu items we wanted were not available, and such a short menu that was disappointing. After spending almost $400 for four adults and one child for this meal, I would say we were grossly overcharged for the service and food that we were served.

   The same food that is at every other restaurant in Santa Fe. Like the classic meal for American's in 1970. Who ever this guy is who's destroyed the food scene in Santa Fe needs to stop.

    The entrees were good and wonderfully presented. The restaurant was extremely cold as the doors to the hotel lobby adjacent to the dining room. Servers were polite but not at all attentive. I had to wave down our waitress for anything we needed. Appetizers were so so.
