The black bean nachos were incredible. I haven’t had nachos this good in probably 10 years.
I got the Carnitas which was crispy sweet and spicy deliciousness.
The House Margarita was delicious. Perfectly sweet.

Stopped by on a Tuesday night around 6.30 and the place was packed. Came back the following day around 5 or so and got a seat at the bar. Within 45 minutes the place was full.
The tropical brisket was on the menu and it was really good. The brisket was seasoned well and was tender. The whole plate was seasoned well and very good. If you try their dangerous sauce, it is quite hot. Great service behind the bar too.

Delicious food and perfect margaritas. Place is small, so be prepared to wait for a table. Food is served at the bar so if you see a seat there, grab it. Red hot and blue nachos are where it’s at.

Never got a table after standing in the doorway for 30 minutes. Bonus points went to the guy who arrived later and got seated ahead of me because he knew the staff. If skipping the line via personal connections is your thing, you’ll love it. If you’d rather not linger on your feet while being overlooked, Charlottesville has far better places to drink.

Sante Fe Enchilda was basically a trip to heart attack grill as it was effectively a plate of cheese and sauce minus the chicken and minus the enchilada. Red hot blues had excessive amount of spice on it to the point you couldnt taste anything else. Very loud tacky pop music that did not fit the vibe of a nice-ish restaurant.

So good. It is sort of Tex Mex mixed w authentic Mexican specialties. The food was so tasty and fresh, service friendly and efficient….highly recommend! Hard working staff.

Worth the wait you will inevitably have…best margaritas in town (also available while waiting)!! Don’t leave without getting the Red Hot Blues (nachos). The Divide always had a solid menu of staples and daily quesadilla. The Santa Fe enchiladas and the brisket tacos are always delicious.

I used to eat here when I lived in Charlottesville nearly a decade ago, and I was pleased to find out that it was just as good as it used to be. The Santa Fe enchilada was exceptional…and, being a native New Mexican, I’m pretty picky! Yes, it’s busy and noisy, but that is part of the charm. Don’t let the line scare you. You can enjoy a marg while you wait and chances are you’ll run into a friend — or make a new one — before you get to your table.

Nice little hole-in-the-wall food joint. I ordered the nachos with chili. The plate was huge and shareable. The chili topping was good, but I wish I would have tried with the beans instead. It came with a nice big serving of guacamole on top, which was my favorite part.
They were very busy when I went in, which was on a Tuesday. I sat at the bar, and it took a little bit for the bartender to wait on me, but that is to be expected when they are that busy. She was friendly.
