We were in Los Alamos recently for a wedding. We arrived mid-afternoon, hours before the wedding, so we pulled over to look for a place to eat. I got out my Yelp app, did a search and found Pyramid Cafe. We were outside of the parking lot where they are located. So, we pulled in and had a late lunch. WOW, what a fantastic find!!! We like Mediterranean cuisine, so this was perfect. I had a Gyro Sandwich to which I added hummus. We also got Chicken Tagine with a side of lamb stew. Also, a side Greek salad with grilled chicken. And we also got the Mediterranean Lemonade, which I highly recommend. All the dishes were unbelievably delicious! Pyramid Cafe is a fantastic find! This is small, so don't plan to go there if you've got a large crowd. Also, note that there's only one bathroom - like I said, it's small. I'd say this place is something the locals know about and frequent. It is a place I'll return to the next time I'm in Los Alamos!

Baba and Hummus skimpy on pita
Scott P.

Ok - I was really eager for some lamb, Baba, hummus, ... Mediterranean cuisine. Food was good, acceptable and location was convenient. Portions were large and their fries were terrific! I'd rather have airplane visa miles but I try to pay in cash to help small restaurants during Covid. Just as another reviewer posted "do you want your change?" he asked. I was surprised and annoyed. I said, " yes, I do." Then I asked for change for a $5 bill, and tipped him 20% for take out ... no thank-you or acknowledgement at all from him. Imagine my displeasure when I arrive to a spot in the park (after a long walk) and sit down to eat. No utensils, no napkins - Great! Thanks buddy! I like it best, when people take pride and do their best. If it's slow, make sure everything is just perfect for a guest who's going out if their way to support you. Not a half-a**ed effort. Also suggest someone clean up the front entrance, pretty grungy.

Falafel
Sarai L.

My new favorite (non-Mexican) restaurant in town. So so good. We came to have a beer and dinner on a Thursday night. The place was pretty dead (not unusual for Los alamos) and there were only two servers. We got the hummus appetizer with Pita, falafel side, combo plate with chicken that came with rice and salad, gyro with lamb and fries. All of the food was so good. I loved my gyro. Probably one of the best I have had and the fries are the best in town. The falafel had great flavor and the salad had the perfect amount of dressing. The rice was also flavored perfect and pita wasn't dry, which happens a lot. I don't have a single complaint about the food for this visit. The only bad thing was we ordered a beer the $4 IPA and it tasted bad so we asked for the $6 one instead, which was much better. the service was good, but I think one more server there would have been better. Overall,I can't wait to go back for more!

Brik a Loeuf plate
Monica G.

Take out one star because of the chicken is kinda dry in the tangine also the service. The waiter and waitress are nice, it's just they do make me feel that they are really tired. Especially the girl, her voice is so low that we can barely hear her. The brik a loeuf is amazing, I loved it, Greek salad can lose some dressing, I don't like my lettuce drenched in yogurt sauce. I do like their mint tea, it's not very minty though.

The lamb meat was so tender on both meals, but it was the actual meat not the slices that you normally get. The spices left a great flavor in your mouth, that will make you wanting more. The salad was fresh and delicious with just the right amount of greens, quinoa, feta, nuts, Kalamata olives and lamb meat. I had the half and barely finished it.

She got the Athenian beef with a side of avegolemono soup. I got the pulled chicken plate with spanakopita. We also got 1 of each sauce to try. And a side of red pepper hummus and Greek fries. The beef and chicken were delicious. The Greek salad good. The portion sizes were smaller compared to other Greek restaurants. Also both plates did not come with pita. You have to extra pay for pita. They carry bottled drinks, no fresh iced tea. The restaurant is setup as a counter order. Also minimal seating. They had a few to go orders. $75 for the 2 of us

The building is so cozy, it feels like you're sitting down to eat at a families house, not just a restaurant. It was incredibly welcoming and I recommend to anyone who's in Taos, NM!

This Mediterranean restaurant serves an amazing variety of dishes, including chicken shawarma,…read moregyros, kebabs, and falafel, along with classic sides like dolmas, hummus, and baba ganoush. Everything we tried was full of flavor, seasoned nicely, and tasted very fresh. The portions are huge and very generous, and the prices are quite reasonable for the amount of food you get. The chicken shawarma platter is my go-to, and the delicious pistachio baklava is a must-try for dessert. The atmosphere is relaxed and inviting, making it a comfortable place to sit down and enjoy a meal. It has a warm, casual vibe that makes you feel welcome whether you're dining in or just stopping by for a quick bite. One of the best parts of this place is the attached grocery store, which carries a wide selection of Middle Eastern products, spices, and desserts. It's really convenient to be able to grab ingredients or treats after eating. The staff were also very friendly and helpful, which made the experience even better. The only downside is that seating can sometimes be a challenge, especially during busy times. However, the food, welcoming ambiance, and overall experience more than make up for it. I really enjoyed my meal here and will definitely be coming back again.

After waiting quite a while, I hung up and called back. This time, they took my order quickly and efficiently. I hadn't been here since they were in their previous location across the street, and I was really impressed with the new dining area. It was clean, well-decorated, and had a lot of open space. The front counter staff seemed a bit awkward or shy, I couldn't quite tell, but it was fine. They let me know my order would be ready in about 10 minutes. In reality, I waited closer to 20 mins todal, but it was absolutely worth it. I ordered the chicken shawarma platter, and it did not disappoint. It came with a delicious side salad made with fresh produce, a light dressing, and generous chunks of feta cheese. The platter also included some of the best hummus I've ever had, along with pita bread for dipping, though I honestly could have used a little more bread. The main dish featured tender, well-seasoned chicken served over rice with a creamy cucumber sauce that I could not get enough of. Seriously, this stuff was dangerously addictive. I'll definitely be back, and next time I'm bringing the whole family!

This is a major hidden gem of Santa Fe -- perhaps our best meal after living here for a month. We…read morehad the Mezze for 2 and the Tajine for 2, and both had wonderful flavors and a variety of spices without being hot spicy (though you could add harissa if you wanted to). We're normally big meat eaters but we're very, very happy with the vegetarian dishes here. The Mezze came with falafel, eggplant, salad (outstanding flavor), hummus, and very good hot pita bread. The Tajine was a delectable and we loved the presentation of it in the traditional clay pot. It had slow cooked vegetables (carrots, zucchini, sweet potatoes, etc) and was partially sweet with dates. But the highlight was the Moroccan mint tea, served traditionally in glasses and poured from high up. I haven't had tea that good in awhile (and yes I go to the Teahouse). Warning -- this is a BYOB restaurant, so bring your bottle of wine with you (and save money). Will definitely return.

A little tough to find the entrance to the restaurant--enter The Body studio main door in the middle of the building, and then the restaurant is nestled to the far back and left of the front desk. Low mood lighting makes it hard to read the menus but you can use your smartphone flashlight. Great service with in-depth explanation of each dish. We ordered the signature traditional tajine, the mezze platter, and a plant-based chicken shawarma plate with potato chips. I enjoyed a dirty chai and a family member enjoyed a Kacha'va superfoods smoothie with chocolate. A delicious vegetarian/vegan Mediterranean feast! I enjoyed the different spices, textures, and flavors in the mezze platter and tajine. Plan to spend $30 plus per person if you get a beverage.

The menu is fairly extensive and a kind of weird mashup of Indian with other cuisines. So creative! And best of all it's vegetarian and can easily be made vegan!

For years, their samosas were some of the best: perfectly seasoned potato filling in a lightly friend pocket alongside some date chutney sauce. On their updated menu, samosas were listed as 25%, so I went for 2 thinking the portions were as they had been for the last 15 years. Sadly, this was not so. They were more like tiny hot pockets, baked pizza dough, with a rather bland, flavorless filling. Alongside a #3 cup of veggie of the day and $16 later, I realized my journey with Annapurna had come to an end, and I would not be returning. Also, I noticed the oat milk being added to the $7 oat chai was Kirkland brand, which consists of: (filtered water, organic rolled oat flour), organic sunflower oil, calcium carbonate, organic natural flavors, sunflower lecithin, sea salt, vitamin A palmitate, ergocalciferol (vitamin D2), riboflavin (vitamin B2), and cyanocobalamin (vitamin B12) . Some listings also describe it as fortified and organic, with no added sugar noted in one review source. I'm not an Ayurvedic doctor, but these ingredients and the quality of the food have declined considerably over the last years, which is sad. Such are the times...
