For a big night out with great food and drinks, make plans for Paloma. We love catching up with friends while splitting this Railyard restaurant’s underrated vegetarian small plates. Standouts include the roasted carrots dolloped in a peanut-pistachio salsa macha and the El Jardin quesadilla, stuffed with buttery queso Oaxaca melted over delicata squash and nasturtium blooms. You’ll find other groups on the heated patio enjoying cocktails like the michelada verde or chamomile lychee martini. People tease that Santa Fe doesn’t have any young people, but the scene here proves otherwise.
