Santa Fe Restaurant Review: On a highly traveled corner near New Orleans City Park, owners Lale Ergun and Carlos Lourenco transformed the old (and much-beloved) Gabrielle Restaurant building into Santa Fe’s intimate indoor dining space and outdoor patio. Menu-wise, be prepared for unpredictable flavor pairings like grilled scallops with pineapple salsa, or a Spanish omelet served with sweet potato purée. On a balmy evening, aim for a table outdoors, often the site of easy listening Spanish-inspired live music, which seems to make the hazelnut cappuccino cheesecake go down easily. Drawbacks include service that’s friendly but a bit slow, so sometimes the food sits too long before it gets to the table. Also, the wine list is unexpectedly brief for cooking that’s so diverse. |
