Serving Lunch 7 Days a Week from 11:30am to 2:30pm.
Located on the corner of Lincoln and San Francisco Street, overlooking the historic plaza, a visit to the Ore House is a must when visiting the city different!
The Ore House on the Plaza has been on the historic Santa Fe Plaza since 1977 and has long been a favorite here in Santa Fe. The Ore House has four "sister" restaurants in Steamboat Springs, Vail, Edwards, and Frisco Colorado. The first Ore House was located in Big Sky, Montana - an old mining town, hence the miner and mule logo.
Over the years there have been several Ore Houses in different towns, all with the same menu focus: Primed Aged Beef, fresh seafood, great salads, and homemade desserts. Each location varies its menu items to fit the local tastes and regional specialties.
In Santa Fe we make incredible chile sauces and salsas from local chiles and produce, and incorporate them into our lunch, dinner, and Cantina menus. Our Santa Fe location is proud to be considered a "must visit" spot for locals and tourists alike.
Your stay in Santa Fe is not complete without one of our famous margaritas and a quiet relaxing break on our wonderful Plaza balcony.

The food was poor. Our appetizer came out with our entrees. The burger I ordered well done was pink. The fries were luke warm. After commenting on my parties ages and checking our IDs to ensure we were 21, the hostess urged us to try the margaritas. Once we were seated the waiter refused to serve me alcohol because I have a verticle Oklahoma Drivers Licence, although I am approaching my 23rd birthday and the license had not yet expired. I visit Santa Fe yearly with the University of Oklahoma and had dinned at this restaurant with the same verticle ID the year before without incident, successfully ordering many margaritas. The whole experience was less than thrilling. The waiter didn't offer to get the manager when we were less than satisfied with our food and service, so we paid our bill and are content never to return to the Ore House on the Plaza again on any of our future Summer visits with OU.

We decided to eat at the Ore House after looking at their website. When we got there, the menu was different and more expensive from what was listed on the website. When we asked our server if we could have what we wanted from the website menu, he did not honor it. After he realized we were disappointed in their menu, he basically ignored us for the rest of our dining experience. The server claimed their menu had changed two days before we came, but since their website hadn't been updated, you'd think they'd honor it). Overall, the food was ok, but not worth the price....especially after seeing lower prices listed on the website. The service was bad.
