  • that since 1995 (starting at our first location – Pizza Etc.), we have led the Santa Fe food industry, in supporting the Farmers Market. By all the farmers’ consensus, we buy more local, regional grass-fed beef, lamb, produce, flour, veggies and fruits than any other restaurant in Santa Fe. In 2010 Joe’s Dining purchased over $80,000.00 worth of Farmers Market products.  A locavore’s delight.  ( 100K by 2012)
  • that your hosts, Roland and Sheila, have a combined 70+ years in the restaurant industry!!
  • that Joe’s is not a chain or a franchise. Joe’s Dining is one of a kind. Joe’s is Roland and Sheila – all that they own, all that they are. We cannot compete with the chains’ marketing budgets. However, they cannot compete with our food or our service or our heart.
  • that we cater a significant number of corporate office meetings, weddings, family events, community and church events and doctors’ office meetings and receive marvelous feedback.
  • that we have our own pastry chef in house – he/she does fresh desserts as well as beautiful birthday cakes and Gluten-Free options

 Here are some thoughts on the Year of the Horse. The horse is one of the Chinese’ favorite animals. A horse provides good and quick transportation, symbolically a sign of speedy success.

Numerologically 2014 is deemed a “7” year   Last year at this time we looked at 2013 through the eyes of Chinese astrology.  It was the year of the Snake. This year “fun with numbers” (numerology) tells us that 2014 is a Number 7.   (2+0+1+4= 7).  Now, what does that imply?   In a general sense, the Number 7 is a seeker, the thinker, the searcher of truth, the one who questions everything. So 2014 will be a year of deep introspection, and transformation for the betterment. Globally, this will be a year of make-or-break decisions for many...
