About Us
The Santa Fe Southwest Grill was originally conceived by Gordon and Micki Patterson in the spring of 1991. With her God given cooking abilities compounded with those learned from her mother, Micki successfully ran “Mick’s Corral” restaurant in Saratoga Wyoming for a number of years. This included being prep-cook, line cook and dishwasher. Shortly after moving to Rock Springs and with some encouragement and some convincing from her husband, Gordon, they embarked together on their local restaurateur adventure.

The Santa Fe Southwest Grill has had some absolutely extraordinary kids work for us over the years. We have always taken much pride in them. They all have grown to be quite successful as their accolades are too numerous to log on this small page alone. They are all greatly missed and thought of often.  We take just a little bit of the credit for them turning out so well. :)
**I know I've missed some of you. Just contact me  at the restaurant or e-mail me and I'll fix it!  CG
