I smelled the smoker for most of the day as I was staying down the street. Two of the chefs were…read moreoutside tending the smoker when we arrived. I got some solid advice, 'order what ever comes out of this'. They were right, burnt ends and pork belly were amazing. Distinctive flavor, but delicate. Perfect medium rare steak, I mean perfect. We also had the caesar salad. Also remarkable. The only thing we did wrong was not order 2 salads for the 3 of us to share. The grilled corn was really amazing, I've been thinking about it for days. It has the signature red sauce, somewhere between a Mole and a chili sauce, woody, spicy with a citrus note. Our young one ordered the chicken pasta and said it had too much lemon. I thought it was good, but not as good as the smoker items and steak. The staff was totally top notch and they looked like they were having a good time in the show kitchen. I will come back for sure and stay in Arroyo Seco.

The menu is incredible, very creative with vegan and vegetarian options. However if you are very hungry or in a hurry I would not recommend it. The service is very sloooow. I visited with my son and wife. I ordered 'Papas con Chile', my wife @/ Sequeña Croissant and my son a panini sandwich. My son had one of their Superfood Smoothies and my wife and I Americano coffee. At the end of our brunch we had some pastries out of this world. Next to the Cafe, they have a small food market with a great selection.

We came here on the first full day in Taos after a recommendation from a local shop owner. The avocado toast with a sorrel paste was extremely tasty. The avocado was creamy, the sourdough toast was perfectly toasted and the sorrel paste gave the dish a spark that made every bite a pleasure. The huevos rancheros were outstanding. The beans were perfectly cooked and seasoned. The green and red chile sauces were both on point and better than what I got at more well-known restaurants in town. The smoothies and chai masala were very creamy and tasty. Additionally, the vegan potato and corn chowder was a delicious lite lunch item. Very pleasant service as well. We came here every day and had terrific meals each time.

Despite having many customers throughout the day, most do not choose to stay to drink at the tables, so you don't have to worry about finding a spot to sit. I had the Purple Haze, a lavender latte drink that had great coffee and lavender flavors and was the perfect amount of sweetness to me. The Black Panther, a raspberry latte drink, was also good. I believe I met the owner, and she was super kind to us. We did not have coins to pay for parking, and she helped us out without even asking for us to pay her back (of course we did, but it was a very nice gesture).

My iced latte was also divine. They had some really good looking desserts too but I didn't leave room for those. This was definitely one of my favorite lunch places in Santa Fe. Sooo good!!

There is plenty of seating in the room next door, and it appears they may be expanding that room. In the main room, you walk up to the counter and order, then your food is brought out to you. We got sandwiches and bowls and the food was great. Fresh and healthy. I also got some kind of maple cream cold brew; I did have to ask for more maple flavor because I wanted my drink a bit sweeter, and the barista graciously added it without charging extra. They seemed to have interesting pastries and bagels, and the shop is also a market with fancy snacks and other provisions. I was tempted to take home a unique chocolate bar or jam, or something savory like a wacky bag of popcorn, but we were maxed out on snacks at our Airbnb, so I refrained. They had a wide selection of this kind of stuff. All in all, it was the perfect spot to grab lunch in the late afternoon while cruising around the Plaza on a hot day. The service was friendly, and so were the other customers!

I'm finding it hard to believe that this is a real business. According to their website, they've…read morebeen open for about 5 months. I went in here this morning looking for some juice or a smoothie while on vacation. The menu on their website looks great...several smoothie options and lots of juice options. There was one person working and they were extremely incompetent. We asked if we could get smoothies and he said yes...but when we tried to order it turns out they were missing a ton of ingredients. Of what they did have, they didn't have enough to make more than 2 smoothies. We wanted 3, so we decided to do 2 smoothies and one juice. When I went to order the juice, he said they had all the options. Then it turns out they didn't have 2 of them. Clearly he had no idea what was going on. The juice I ordered was pre-made not fresh like I was expecting. We paid almost $24 for the two smoothies and the juice. When we got in the car, the smoothies were very WARM and watery. I knew the fruit was fresh but assumed ICE would have been used. We tried them anyway and they were really, really gross. Then I looked at the juice and it was dated several days ago. No way I was drinking that. What a waste of money and time. It felt like someone just decided to print off a random menu and stand inside a building pretending to have a business rather than actually figuring out how to run a business. How is this place open?
