Joseph's Culinary Pub

Let me begin by saying Chef Joseph's reputation precedes him here in Santa Fe.  This restaurant has only been open for six days with no announcement or advertising and the place was packed at our 7 pm reservation!  The decor is tasteful and the dining room is warm and cozy.  

The service was friendly and attentive, second to none.  We were served complimentary champagne.  I ordered a glass of the Malbec and my friend ordered the Pine Ridge Pinot Noir.  The Malbec was very smooth and my friend said the Pinot was very good.  

I had the leek and potato soup and my friend ordered the sashimi and kale appetizer.  Both were delicious.
For dinner I had the rabbit lasagna.  And my friend had the Salmon and Artichoke.  Both were well done and very tasty.  For desert I had the chocolate sorbet which was complex with a touch of coffee flavor.  My friend ordered the panna cotta, his favorite!

Overall I was very pleased with everything ordered and the service was excellent and look forward to returning on my next visit to Santa Fe!
