Santa Fe Bite opened in 2013 as the self-described successor to Bobcat Bite, inheriting that spot's reputation for a green chile cheeseburger that's collected its own accolades over the years. The restaurant has since transitioned to employee ownership while keeping that legacy front and center.
The menu has grown well beyond the burger, adding steaks, Mexican dishes, breakfast plates, house-roasted coffee, and desserts. Regulars still gravitate toward the classics — the green chile cheeseburger and the veggie burger both come up often, alongside chips and salsa on the table.
