"Santa Fe BK makes margaritas as God intended: muddled by hand with tequila, triple sec, and citrus, available in single or double portions, spicy or non-spicy. The cocktails are a strong vote of confidence for the smothered burritos and enchiladas that follow, comforting dishes that are rarely done justice in New York City. Order them blanketed in red or green sauce (made from Chimayo and Hatch green chiles, respectively) or a mix of both, called “Christmas style.” In the mornings, they serve some of our favorite breakfast burritos out of a takeout window." - Eater Staff
"Opened in 2021 during the pandemic, this spot proudly flies the sunburst flag of New Mexico out front and offers a menu that includes green chile enchiladas, mac and cheese, and taco salads. From noon to 3 p.m. every day their bargain green chile cheeseburger ($9) features a pickle-y topping of famous Hatch chiles, American cheese, onions, and a nicely grilled patty on a branded brioche bun. Early risers can get a green chile burrito between 8 a.m. and noon — equally good and hard to find in NYC." - Robert Sietsema
"The breakfast burritos at Santa Fe BK are inspired by the owners’ home state, New Mexico. They are pre-made with fillings like sausage, bacon, and potato, and kept warm under a heat lamp at the front of the restaurant. When the ingredients are this good, making burritos ahead of time isn’t a bad thing: The flavors of sausage and green chile seep into the soft scrambled egg, and the addition of hash browns makes a handheld burrito feel like a full meal. Santa Fe BK is one of the only restaurants in town to make its own tortillas." - Emma Orlow
"A thin, homemade flour tortilla is the base for a snack-sized burrito that costs around $10. The flavors of sausage and green chile seep into the soft scrambled egg, and the addition of hash browns makes a handheld burrito feel like a full meal. Price: $11." - Luke Fortney
"“Lots of plants” seems to be the theme in the backyard of this Brooklyn restaurant, known for its smothered burritos, combination plates, and other Southwestern fare. A true neighborhood restaurant, tables aren’t hard to come by most nights of the week, and the backyard can feel like a universe of its own, canopied by trees and overflowing with potted plants." - Eater Staff
