Sleeping Dog is an upscale tavern and is good to go for small bites and a glass of wine. The kobe burger is also a delicious choice, if you are looking for a bigger meal. More

The Sleeping Dog closed in mid-November. The closure may be temporary or more extended, judging from the sign on the door - it's just hard to really tell. But TripAdvisor readers should not count on a meal at "The Dog" for the foreseeable future, and it remains possible that when the property re-opens, it will have a new name and... More

Went here for dinner with my husband, 14 and 7 year old. We try to have a couple of nice dinners and a couple of inexpensive nights on vacation. This was definitely inexpensive and delicious!! My husband had sliders, I had the white chicken chili, my daughter had the green chili mac and cheese and my son had a typical... More

As dog lovers the name drew us in but the bartender, wait staff and food will bring us back. Not ready for a heavy meal we ordered the seafood cocktail served in a large martini glass. It was almost too pretty to eat but, of course, we did. We even thought about ordering a second one but held off. And... More

For the first night of our reunion, we selected the Sleeping Dog Tavern since its menu offered a great variety. We were seated in a room away from the bar so conversation was easy. Everyone in the group enjoyed their meal, but the rave reviews came from the three of us who shared the three selections of sliders which were... More

This is just a bit different then the typical Sante Fe restaurant. The menu is unique and the bar selections are excellent. There is a Mew Mexico influence but done with finesse. It also has wonderful breakfasts. More

If I can only judge based upon the BLT and wine selection and for those, this place gets 10 stars. That BLT is something I still think about. Unfortunately it was what my husband ordered and I only got two bites. My dish was not my taste (short rib tacos) but that's not to say there was anything wrong with... More

Our food choices were all nummy: mushroom soup, steak salad and bow tie pasta with sausage. We gave our very busy and fast waiter a larger tip than normal as his service was really impressive. A good place for families to eat as well. And if you like dogs, you'll enjoy their artwork. More
