    View from the picnic tables-gorgeous!
    Elizabeth R.

    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!

    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.

    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.

    We secured the Chef's Tasting menu as the ultimate experience to spoil my mom for Mother's Day…read more.. The food (each course) was expertly crafted and full of wonderful flavors. Started with Wagyu/Angus burnt ends and savory red chile sauce. Tender and delicious. We then moved to the almost crusted Chilean Sea Bass with cilantro basmati rice and locally sourced microgreens and asparagus. Blew me away. The best course, IMO, was the duck confit with corn and hatch chile bread pudding. Accompanied by macerated blueberries and delicious red amaranth micro greens. Chef's kiss. The bouillabaisse was multilayered and seafood was perfectly prepared. To round out our evening, we indulged in a key lime pie that was refreshing and the perfect close to a wonderful meal. The chef and staff are so wonderful. They take care of you and can relate without any kind of pretension. Highly recommend

    Being a native New Mexican who hasn't lived in northern NM for over 26 years, I, too, need a break…read morefrom my native cuisine! 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!
