This is my favorite place to go for hamburgers. Since I am a local and have to work I have found it easier to call in your order to go. It's nice to show up and see the long line and walk out with your food. more

What can I say, except we don't want to tell you how good these burgers are! I say that because the place is indeed small and we've always found a small crowd waiting so I don't want to encourage more business! However, the burgers are the best in Santa Fe, we've generally not waited longer than 15 minutes, and we've... more

Bobcat Bite serves, quite simply, the best hamburger (green-chili cheeseburger, actually) that I have ever eaten. It is prepared exactly as requested, the meat is exceptional in flavor, and the accompanying fries are excellent. Also, since the burger is 10 ounces, and costs no more than a good burger elsewhere, my wife and I split it (no problem for the... more

My husband and I were watching a program on FoodNetwork that ranked the top 3 U.S. restaurants in categories such as tacos, BBQ, pizza, and burgers. Bobcat Bite was the #1 burger, so we knew we should try it on our next trip to Santa Fe. We got there at 11:10 am on a Friday in late March and there... more

This is one of those places that you don't see in a lot of tourist books - it is a local favorite. My wife and I loved it. There was a bit of confusion about the set up but after that, we were fine. When you get there, you have to place your name on the board outside the front... more

I went to the Bobcat last Wednesday with a total party of 5 people. One of the group members was running a little late, and the waitress, who was obviously having a bad day and seemed completely miserable and unhelpful, told us that we couldn't wait for the other person before ordering: we had to place the orders for ourselves.... more

Well I seldom write reviews, but ... the food at Bobcat is always good and always the same as is reflected by the majority of the reviews here. It is reflected more by the large crowds that flock to the Bobcat has they have for years untold. As for service, during slow times it is good. When the place is... more

One visit to the Bobcat Bite was rewarded with a simply delicious Green Chilie Cheeseburger. 10 ounces of perfectly cooked, good tasting beef served in a tiny dining room run by two charming women, who were probably mother and daughter. If you're in Santa Fe and want a great burger in a tiny but interesting building with charming service..this will... more

We had an extremely poor experience here two weeks ago today on a Friday at noon. We live half the year in Santa Fe and this was our first time at this restaurant, having heard good things about the food. When you arrive you put your name on a board and they go in turn to seat you. There was... more

As locals, we know there is no better GreenChileCheeseburger than at the Bobcat Bite... we like it piled high, but Bonnie and her folks will put the chile on the side, if you are leary of the heat and want to try it first. We always recommend our visitors enjoy the burgers and steaks (the rib eye is especially wonderful!)... more
