The food was amazing, and the waiter was awesome. Very friendly and attentive, I order the "Grande Burrito", which was a nice size portion and absolutely delicious. The chips and salsa was not only warm and delicious enough to hold me over till the entree came out. I definitely recommend Santa Fe Grill for delicious, authentic Mexican food. Mouth watering, definitely worth it, just overall great place to eat.

Food was pretty good. I removed a star because of the fried mushrooms, they were not seasoned at all! But the 1/2 portion of chicken nachos were delicious! I lettuce and tomatoes are extra charges, but not much, $1 per item. I will definitely return!

I love this restaurant…they have the BEST fried green tomatoes than ANY place in the Metro Jackson area. My food is always fresh and hot. Depending on the server, you may have to ensure your order is completely understood- that’s the one drawback. Their food is consistently good…my husband orders the ribeye, and he has no complaints. You can’t beat the cost either even though the prices have increased some due to the way the economy is. Like I said, I love this Sante Fe in Ridgeland, MS.
