La Boca - Review - Downtown - Santa Fe - The Infatuation
"The best steak in Santa Fe is served with salted caramel sauce at La Boca. Just off the Plaza, it’s a tiny restaurant with even tinier tables perfect for cramming in as many friends as possible over tapas and sherry. The dishes are the typical tapas standards—we’re convinced the phrase “don’t fix what isn’t broken” was invented with patatas bravas in mind, and the ones here are textbook stellar. The best bang for your boquerones is to hit up La Boca for 3-5pm happy hour, though you’ll be tempted to stay later into the evening to order seconds and thirds of pan con tomate while being serenaded by the cantatours and guitarists who take the taberna stage five nights a week. At least stay long enough to order dessert—we love their Gâteau Basque, a traditional buttery pastry crimped around a vanilla bean custard doused with an added flair of housemade brandied cherries and crème fraîche." - Nina Katz
