Paper Dosa Santa Fe

Paper Dosa

Santa Fe, NM

From my cozy spot on the patio at Paper Dosa in Santa Fe, I watched my humans fall in love with crispy dosas and aromatic South Indian curries while I soaked up compliments and the occasional breeze. The warm, welcoming vibe, creative cocktails, and dog-friendly outdoor seating made it a perfect night for both two-legged foodies and four-legged freeloa—I mean, companions. 🐾🍛🍹

Nacho Review

If I, Nacho the dog, could sniff my way into Paper Dosa in Santa Fe, I’d be drooling over the warm, spicy aromas of South Indian cuisine—think crispy dosas and savory curries that make every nose twitch with excitement. The laid-back, art-filled atmosphere at 551 W. Cordova Road feels as welcoming as a sunbeam on the patio, and with most dishes in the $$ out of $$$$ range, it’s a tasty treat for humans and a dream for pups hoping for a dropped morsel or two. If only they had a dosa just for dogs!
