Sazón
Sazón, a fine dining restaurant with an award-winning wine list and one of the largest tequila and mezcal selections in the country, continues to be recognized for its outstanding service, unique ambience and creative menu providing for a dining experience like none other. Located in a historic building in the heart of Santa Fe’s downtown Plaza area, they have been awarded the prestigious AAA 4 Diamond award and ranked sixth in the country for fine dining on Trip Advisor's "Best of the Best" list. Chef Olea is honored to have won the 2022 James Beard Awards, Best Chef: Southwest.
Originally from Mexico City, Chef Fernando Olea, formerly Chef/Owner of Epazote Restaurant and Bert’s La Taqueria, has been enthralling diners in Santa Fe since 1991. He creates sophisticated flavors using Old Mexico’s indigenous and culinary traditions alongside ingredients from around the world. His menu is deliberately small, featuring fresh and locally sourced produce and meats when possible.
Chef Olea is well known for his exquisite moles, a sauce of complex flavors that usually includes toasted and ground spices, seeds, nuts, chocolate and chile. Many mole recipes contain more than thirty ingredients and some recipes have five varieties of chile alone. Chef Olea welcomes you to experience his New World cuisine at Sazón.
