I am a picky eater and I have to say the Jambo Cafe opened up my eyes to the deliciousness of fried plantains!! It was the best food we had in Santa Fe. The staff is friendly and it has a great atmosphere! Make sure you finish off your meal with some coconut flan--Great food, great service, great price! Even... More

Jambo is off the beaten path from the plaza in Santa Fe, but if you're looking for authentic and very tasty Caribbean/African food, don't miss dining at Jambo. The wait staff is friendly and upbeat. We had the plantains and jerk chicken appetizers. Each one had such unique flavor profiles and each dish did not fall short on seasonings either.... More

The owner/chef makes sure the patrons are well taken care of. We had the hummus appetizer, combination platter, and the tilapia. All fabulous! So good we got the banana cocoanut cream pie to go.

They have my favorite lentil soup and beef or chicken kabobs, moroccan style. Once in a while the coconut chicken or specials are great. Must like the non-mainstream, unusual ethnic restaurants.

Simply the BEST of Santa Fe. Tucked into a strip mall is one gem of a restaurant. The food is absolutely divine and the staff is both attentive and welcoming. This is our must go to place when we're in Santa Fe. It's the kind of place you go to for lunch and come back for dinner!

So we went here with a local friend. It did not look like much in a shopping center with a grocery store etc, but you went inside and the place was alive with probably a lot of locals I'm guessing and all around a great experience. The menu had so many things to choose from and it was hard to... More
