    View from the picnic tables-gorgeous!

    Excellent quick stop on our drive of the enchanted circle. Everyone was following rules and the food was delicious. My son and I chose the wildcat burgers and they were delicious. Hubby chose the deep fried steak sandwich and said it was very good. No indoor dining but they have added picnic tables that have a gorgeous view. Highly recommend! Of note: everything is made as you order so don't expect everything fast! It is worth the wait.

    Perfect spot to grab a bite after a long hike! I had a burger & added green chilis, delicious! My husband had the Buffalo chicken sandwich, he said it had a serious kick and thoroughly enjoyed it. Very friendly and super nice staff!

    Wildcat burger with the works

    Great food and fast service. The burger and fries were excellent. The green chile was pretty mild but smoky. The only reason I'm not giving this rating as a 5 is because we got fries instead of the ordered tater tots, but the fries were very tasty.

    Absolutely the best burgers in the Red River NM area. Friendly counter service. Quite a good selection of burgers and New Mexican food.

    Burgers are not bad. Cheese is a buck. My main issue is the cramped 1960's seating after you have paid top dollar for a burger.

Food quality was excellent--we had the filet mignon and steak frites, both cooked perfectly, along with a nice local wine. Appetizers and desserts were just as strong. The space is lively, the staff is genuinely friendly, and the whole experience has a subtle Michelin-style feel without being over the top. Definitely worth the short drive.

    What a disappointment…read more I was so looking forward to trying this place since I've never been. However rather than it being a pleasant and memorable experience it turned out to be a total disaster, a nightmare. One we asked for a table they said it would be 15 mins when clearly there were two tables open which I was told were not reserved. So we proceeded to go to the bar. They had one chair available so I sat and proceeded to order a drink for myself and my friend which did not have a chair. In a very rude and obnoxious way the bartender said they cannot serve people who are standing. I said pull up a chair he said no. I said fine I will order one for myself and he will not. Again he said he can't serve people that are standing although I was sitting. So I went back the host which was as lost and ignorant as anyone can be. I requested to speak to a manager. She said she'd get one. No one came no one showed up but a woman looking very unprofessional in her attire. She just went to the stand and said nothing for 5 mins. She finally said "are you waiting for a table?" lol not hello I'm the manager how may I help. I explained the situation. She said we would still have to wait because the kitchen is behind. I said can we sit in one of the empty tables available she said no I said why she said because of the kitchen delay. I said I won't order food only a drink. I just want my friend to be able to enjoy one also so can we just sit? Finally after giving it much thought which seemed quite comical she said yes. We sat ourselves. The reason I explain this situation is simple. I do not want any tourists or people unfamiliar with this location to go through want we went through. Not only was it embarrassing but it was plain prejudice and extremely racist. Medley you have the worst customer service I've ever experienced. No understanding of the word courtesy and are clueless when handling a very simple situation. The shameful way of how you treated me and my friend is unacceptable. I don't know if it was because I was dark skinned or simply because it's that poorly run. But most certainly had to share this horrendous and disgusting experience I had at Medley. 0 Stars not recommended at all! And you all should be ashamed of yourselves for treating a new potential client in this manner. The blatant display of IGNORANCE shows how absolutely clueless you all really are. @aliciasnowwolf

Service: JJ, Kyle, Julie, Josue (sp?), chef team are the bomb. Kind and responsive. Great recommendations and welcoming, not pretentious. Ambiance: near perfect bar dining area.

BFF and I were visiting the plaza and I wanted to eat linner somewhere different. As I researched restaurants prior to our trip, I found this gem and they have happy hour 7 days a week! After reading the many great reviews, we arrived approximately 15 min early prior to them opening as we were not sure how busy it would be on a Sunday afternoon. We arrived prior to the bartender but she showed up shortly after we did and took a seat at the bar!. Now, I genuinely do not like bar seating as I prefer a table, and they have one that sits 10 people but since there was two of us we did not want to hog up that much space. Our server was great and we started off with the brussel sprouts and elote corn ribs with red chile butter. Both were delicious and off the charts! I opted for the chicken sando and BFF ordered the steak frites. Both were delish and full of flavor! We also had a really good pinot cab. Our bill was a bit pricey for their HH menu (116.00 incl 5 glasses of cab total) but worth every penny! Ambience is totally cool, laid back, classy (but not pretentious) with a modern rustic flair on the inside. Will definitely be back if I am in Taos again!
