Mariaâ??s New Mexican Kitchen is a Santa Fe institution. A favorite of generations of locals and visitors alike, weâ??ve been serving the distinctive cuisine of New Mexico and unparalleled margaritas since 1950. Maria and Gilbert Lopez started Mariaâ??s as a small take-out space serving traditional New Mexican foods during the Santa Fe Fiestas. The Lopez family sold Mariaâ??s to Don Hammond, then chief of the New Mexico State Police, who in turn sold to his bartender, Charlie Lopez, who then sold to Peter Gould and Pricilla Hoback. Al and Laurie Lucero purchased the restaurant from Gould and Hoback in 1985 and owned it for 27 years.
