    This place gets a lot of good reviews but then also saw a few one stars also…read more I didn't know what to expect but glad I had a great experience here. I was up in Taos for Saturday and chose to stay upstairs of this restaurant for the night. This place is about 45 min from Taos proper. The upstairs studio was nice, and has nice views of the area. The property also has a hot tub, but I didn't use it. There isn't much out in Tres Piedras, but this place makes up for it. Also great view of the night sky. I spied a beautiful moon from upstairs. Dogs are allowed here and ample parking available. Ice also for sale here. Nice, outdoor patio space too. Staff here were really nice and I had 3 people constantly check in on me. I had a margarita and a beer and my total came to $8. Chips and salsa were on the house. It was also really wonderful to hang out on Saturday night to hear the live music. Gary Reynolds was the musician and he was excellent! They also had all sorts of fresh baked goods for sale, pies and even smudge sticks for sale here. Will have to give a try next time. There is also some really neat history about this building and worth learning the history about the place. I had a good time and definitely would come back.

    Is iced beer a thing? --Maybe, if you're the only game in town…read more A disappointment on every level. Waited a long time for service despite not many folks present at lunch. I was hungry--on a camping trip--and hoping for some great Frito Pie...but as soon as the guac and chips showed up, I knew it was all going wrong. The chips were a few days too old, and the sad squeeze of store-bought guac tasted mostly of salt and oil. I was told the staff had "forgotten" to put the beer in the fridge, but helpfully (?) also provided a cup of ice to pour it over. I had not known we did that. When it eventually arrived, the Frito Pie had been sitting so long that the Fritos were soggy little flaps. The chili was just beans, no beef, and completely lacking in flavor--no cumin, no garlic, no tomato, nothing you'd reasonably expect. And either no red Hatch chile, or so little as to make no difference. It tasted like it came from a large can. The toppings, pale tomatoes and a few wisps of salad, didn't add anything. I'm not saying it's easy to make Frito Pie, but it's not rocket surgery. I've had it all over the state, and never mind SF Plaza-quality...this is hands-down the worst from Aztec to Zuzax.

    OVERALL The Wagon Wheel with its country charm, American…read morefare and full bar is a good place for a warm dinner or supper. Note I did not say Mexican food because this ain't the kind I'm used to! RATING BREAKDOWN Food: 4 | Service: 4 | Ambiance: 4 | Price: 3 PARKING Ample free parking out front. LOCATION/AMBIANCE At the north end of town leaving La Jara, CO. It's got cowboy & country vibes with older decor and saddles all around. The bar is a good size. Good dining area for small groups and larger families. Not a fan of CNN (or any news outlet for that matter) on the TV, but it wasn't blaring and they had other music playing. THE GRUB - margaritas - I watched our waitress make it using a pre-mix. Wasn't a big fan of the taste, but she put a little extra tequila in my first round + 1/2 chili burger with green chile - the green chile wasn't all that prevalent, but this was a good choice recommended to me by more than one local. It was an open-face burger with a single patty with cheese, lettuce, tomato, and onion layered on top with fries all around and green chile somewhere in there. Good, hearty lunch. SERVICE Kind of standoffish until you talk to them more. After that, the older lady who served us was friendly. MY FAVORITE PART... My lunch dates, my fiancé & his aunt whom we stumbled upon when we walked in (3/21/2024). It was nice to be there for her the moment she found out her best friend died (almost expectedly). NOT SO FAVORITE PART... No purse hooks at the hightop tables! TIP - plastic accepted

    On 06/01/2025 I went to the Wagon Wheel Saloon with family to celebrate my birthday. It was my…read morefirst time visiting the establishment. I had heard good comments about the food and was looking forward to the experience. Unfortunately, it would be my last. My aunt, who is 90 years old and blind, was with us. Because of her inability to see what she would eat, she wanted to order something she could handle with her hands. She asked for the chicken tenders, but they were out. She decided to order a chicken burrito without any chili or toppings on the outside and only cheese with the chicken on the inside. Again, this was specified so she could grab the burrito with her hands to eat it with some dignity. A burrito was brought to her with hot melted cheese on top that prevented her from eating it the way she wanted. We told the waitress the burrito was not made as requested so my aunt could eat it with her hands. We asked the waitress to replace it with another one containing the cheese on the inside as originally requested. The waitress, who was young and seemed to be a new employee, hesitated to correct the error and said she would confer with the owner about what could be done. She returned saying the owner said we could have the burrito replaced but would charge us for the second burrito as well. I reminded her the establishment made the mistake, and it was only fair to make it right. She went to confer with the owner again, only to return with the same response. The rest of us had already had our meals brought to the table and began eating, thinking the establishment would do the right thing. In disbelief, I was ready to have us walk out. However, my aunt didn't want to make a scene, saying she would settle for the first burrito as is. I left the situation alone for the moment while my aunt struggled to eat her burrito with a fork. She gave up after a few bites, leaving three-fourths of the burrito uneaten. Toward the end of finishing our food, the owner emerged from the kitchen and sat at a table close by. She made no effort to come to our table to address the problem. Therefore, I got up from our table and went to her. I explained the situation thoroughly, emphasizing the need to have the burrito made as requested to allow my aunt to eat it with her hands since she would struggle using a fork. Despite my effort to see if the owner would make restitution in some manner, she refused to budge on the matter, only providing what seemed like an obligatory apology to me. I informed her it was my first and last time in her establishment. The owner never attempted to go to our table to apologize to my aunt. Such service concerning my aunt was inexcusable! What made it worse was the owner was familiar with my mom who ate there on occasion and was there with our group at the time. I still can't get over what we experienced! By the way, I gave a score of only one star only because I was unsure how to indicate zero stars.
