What People Are Saying About La Sandia
The Editor

In Short – At this sleek and sexy Mexican restaurant and bar, owner-chef Richard Sandoval (of Tamayo and Zengo fame) creates refined south-of-the-border street fare that's as vivacious as the cantina in which it's served. Lofty ceilings, fiery colors and wood-and-chrome accents bedeck the dining room, while an exhibition kitchen--complete with a tortilla press--bustles with activity in the back. The menu touts soft corn tacos with all the accoutrements, ceviche, chiles rellenos, enchiladas and chicken mole.

Delicious!
by Psycicgirl
Blown away by La Sandia, an unexpected surprise. Homemade chips and salsa are delicious and addicting. Presentation of food is gorgeous, which to my foodie boyfriend and I is always a pleasure. Have been twice now and gotten excellent service. Margaritas and mojitos are both very tasty. I think of it as somewhere you might go when you want to treat yourself a bit, because of the price.
- Pros: Creativity, Presentation, Taste, Quality, Service
- Cons: Expensive

Nice food and decor
by hoots
La Sandia has good food and is very reasonable if you get a certificate from restaurant dot com. Without a certificate its a little too expensive, but there is no doubt that the food is good.

Sometimes good, sometimes not
by christine312
I been there 3 times, the mole is wonderful, the steak terribl prepared, shrimp entree totally overpriced (18 bucks) for 4 tiny shrimp. They also tried to serve us a regular pork loin that was on the menu as a pork "tenderloin" hoping we would not notice. It was prepared well, but it was a cheap cut of meat priced as the more expensive cut......Margaritas tasty but overpriced as well. They dont like it when you complain, either....managment was less than friendly when confronted with these issues! I would reallt give this place 2 1/2 stars!
