casual restaurant; great food in santa fe

[margieco]

We'll have a group of 6 on a friday night and would want a relatively early dinner with little to no wait (or reservations allowed).

would love great food and a mixture (southwest would be fantastic as long as there were some non-spicy options for some on the menu). under $20/entree would be great.

any help much appreciated.

thanks!

The Catamount Cafe on the Plaza is always good, as well as Atomic, though seating in atomic for 6 might be hard.

Harry's Roadhouse would be fun w/ a group of 6
The menu is varied....lots of non spicy and vegeterian choices.

thanks! I should also add one more detail... we're hoping it's walking distance to the plaza (staying at la fonda).

let me check out harry's, thanks!

Unfortunately Harry's is a bit of a drive from the Plaza...but meets all you other criteria. Non spicy, varied menu, under $20 and can accomodate a lage party. If you dine early the Shed on the Plaza maybe be a good option. They are a tried and true southwest restaurant....great NM style menu. Lots of options and withinn walking distance. They do take reservations!
