So there are 4 of us on this trip and we've been to maybe 7 or so dinner places in Taos so far and all of us agree Songs Asian Restaurant is the best food. Personally I think it was the best by miles, the cream chees won tons that she brought to our table were mind bendingly good. My lo mein noodles weren't just fantastic they made a great lunch the next day so very generous portions. The service felt truly nostalgic as if I was eating at some dear friends Chinese grandmothers house. Never met the chef but it's her husband and he was back there cooking up a storm. I imagine if it's busy this place could be a little slow as it's only a 2 legend operation, but they still managed to bring us a tasty treat complimentary I guess because they liked us. Really loved this spot, the ambiance did feel like being in some really sweet peoples home, which I appreciated. There are big tables for big parties. read more

We went here for dinner. We ordered their homemade dumplings (delicious), pad Thai (totally not it - looked more like Chinese noodles. It was the only one that we didn't like), Mongolian beef (pretty good), and Singapore noodles (delicious too). They are served in takeout containers so it was convenient if you have leftovers. We were given paper plates to share our food among ourselves. We got a chance to talk to the owner. It's just she and her husband running the restaurant so they need all the support that we can give them. Her husband is Cantonese who moved from L.A. so it's best to order Cantonese dishes. read more

The lady owner is the sweetest person ever, so it hard for me to give only 2 stars, but the food was bad. We both got diffetent kind of noodles, Vegetable Chow Fun and Chinese Lo Main with chicken. Both tasted very flat, that was no depth of flavor. All we could taste was a salty msg soy sauce. No other spices were used. When she didn't ask about the spice level, that we a red flag, but with so many good reviews, I really hoped this place will bring back my hope about tasty food in Taos. To our surprise, both noodles had the same flavor, so no matter the dish you get, it tastes the same. The portion was good, we had leftovers, but couldn't stomach eating them again. read more

I ordered orange chicken and lo mein. My orange chicken came out with red sauce that looked fake/full of preservatives, then the lo mein was also an odd color and did not have a good flavor. I threw away all of my food before I ate it as it looked very unappetizing. Restaurant very hot and could not sit there; lack of service if sitting in the restaurant. Bummer, was looking for good food but wasted $17. read more

Wanted Chinese food so choices were very limited. Found this on yelp, reasonable reviews. Started with Hot and Sour soup. Perfect for the sour but weak on the heat. Mrs Song came out with complimentary cheese wonton as well as noodles for the soup. She also brought some hot sauce with the comment she noticed the two entrees we ordered were both spicy so she thought we might like to "hot up" our soup. We also had Pad Thai and Curry beef. The servings were huge, and we took home 2/3rds of each dish and got 2 more meals for both of us. The curry sauce was phenomenal and nicely spiced. The Pad Thai needed more heat, but we had extra hot sauce from the soup. I like it hot!! The service was excellent, and Mrs Song kept close check on us. The decor of the place was bland, but we went for the food, not the decorations. read more

This restaurant absolutely exceeded my expectations. Delicious food, and genuinely friendly owners served up one of the best meals I've had in Taos. read more

Overall, I thought the food was pretty good. The wanton soup was especially good, but the preparation was inconsistent. One day it had loads of delicious spinach in it, and the very next day none at all. The ramen was **disgusting.** Would not recommend at all. I really enjoyed the duck, though it was a bit rubbery, and the fried rice was good. Liked it better than the crap Mexican options around. read more

We ate here on Thanksgiving evening. Yes, it was open and we were very happy that it was. We were very warmly welcomed by the sweetest Chinese owner Mrs. Song, who expertly advised us about the menu. Very good job. My Chinese family member who was with us absolutely loved the food. We had Kung Pao Chicken, Mongolian beef and broccoli and General Tso's Chicken. Very ample portion sizes with plenty of meat served in nice plastic take out containers that we can reuse. Paper plates and plastic cups. They gave us a free sampler of delicious dumplings. So, we very much enjoyed our meal and have plenty leftover for lunch tomorrow. The place doesn't look like much but the food a was really delicious. Price wise it was very reasonable We would come back again. read more

I know the place looks a little scary from the outside and it is dated on the inside but the food is good and very reasonably priced. The woman who served us, presumably the owner, was very nice and friendly. It seemed that they mostly do a takeaway business. read more

This has gotta be my favorite place in Taos.. the hospitality and love that goes into songs is out of this world and truly feels like your eating in a Chinese grandmas kitchen which I LOVE!! this is my idea of perfect Chinese food, and Coni is the most sweet caring women. We really enjoy the red curry, sesame balls, and kung pow tofu! read more

The curry was amazing. Highly recommend. I personally didn't care for the noodles we ordered but my husband said they were good.

After searching thru Yelp we came to Song's, our plan "B"after we found out our plan "A" was closed. How fortunate for us! We ordered the Singapore noodles in a slightly spicy yellow curry sauce and the Won Ton soup. They were both perfectly spiced needing no additional soy or chili crisp sauce. The portions were large enough for us to think we would need a container to bring some home but we finished the entire meal there. The restaurant looks a bit tired but is very clean inside. Most people who ordered did takeout but do yourselves a favor and eat in to enjoy your meal fresh and hot from the kitchen. read more

This is an unexpected gem in Taos. Song and her husband make as close to authentic Asian food as the clientele will allow and it's superb. Portions are large. Song is quite attentive, friendly and helpful. We ordered the chow fun and cashew chicken and had plenty for the next night in our VRBO. read more

Song's Restaurant is a real gem! The food was delicious. Service was excellent and Connie was friendly, suggesting dishes that went well together. This is a place where you feel right at home. read more

The food was amazing. We got the combination special which is perfect for 2 people. Egg drop soup is great and eggs as well. You can dine in but they will serve you in to-go containers which turned out to be good because we were stuffed and we have enough for another dinner for two! read more

​I wanted to update my 2020 review to share that Song's Asian Restaurant remains a cherished spot for my son and me. The food continues to be delicious and authentic, and the serene atmosphere allows us to enjoy our meals and conversations without the bustle of a crowded space. The owners and staff are as kind and welcoming as ever. It's wonderful to see this gem in Taos maintaining its quality and charm over the years. read more

The chicken lo mein was delicious after a long road trip and the owner was so sweet and wonderful. I highly recommend stopping by Song's for travelers passing through or locals!! read more

The best red Thai curry chicken I've ever had! The chicken is the tenderest chicken you will ever eat. I asked for medium spice and it seems to be standard and it was just perfect for me. A nice kick and a nice tingle after your meal. We split it and it was enough for two. The spring rolls were freshly made, and the dipping sauce that is in housemate is really hot so be careful. But it's really really yummy. The rolls are very crispy which I like in the insides are nice and cooked. You can eat there but you have the same type of experience as you would at home with takeout food. It isn't a Regular restaurant so I know that if that's what you want. But you can sit down and eat your meal. They were very busy on Wednesday evening. Every time we drive-by it has a lot of cars. You can tell they have really good food just by the outside. We spoke to both the owners and they are lovely people. I believe her name is Connie, but I didn't get his. Your cook is a very, very nice man. I hope you get a chance to say hello to both of them. read more

Ordered pad Thai, orange chicken, and chicken fried rice. Pad Thai was made with flat noodles and a brown sauce and bell peppers (no limes either). There were peanuts, but the sauce was all wrong, and no shrimp as advertised. Don't advertise this as pad Thai please. Was not bad, but was not great. And don't order expecting a quick turn around. Quoted 45 minutes, got the food closer to the hour mark. read more

Excellent noodles. Surprised by the high quality of the food. Don't let the look of the place fool you. Hidden gem.

First time customer and the garlic chicken and egg rolls were spectacular, as was the owner Connie, who just nailed down two regular customers with her friendly smile and great customer service. Highly recommend! read more

Food was great and was delivered quickly. Owner/server was extremely nice. She gave us a free appetizer which tasted great. Ambiance is underwhelming. Since Covid, they deliver food to the table in take out containers which was fine and made it easy to take leftovers with us. We are very flexible but if you're picky about decor, restaurant may be too plain for you. They do a big take out business. read more

Isn't easy to miss this place. The food was great and customer service is awesome. Thank you.

This is by far the worst Asian food I have ever had. The Korean beef stir fry had very little flavor and that was bad. The fried rice had a flavor I've never experienced in Asian cuisine. read more

Connie is the owner and the waitress. No other waitstaff. If it's crowded she'll let know how long of a wait. No problem. Very good food. Recommend the Pad Thai. read more

Song's restaurant was absolutely wonderful! lovely ambiance, fantastic service, and incredible food at a great price. Song was so kind and I look forward to eating hear again. This is a small family business and is 100% worth supporting! read more

Great food and service, we can't wait ti go again when we visit New Mexico! All of the food was so tasty.

I guess nobody eats in anymore. I do. They let me sit where I wanted and served me in to go containers. I don't mind. It was still really enjoyable chilling in here with my hot, hot and sour soup. The lady here is really sweet and the food was great. I also got Kung pao chicken. Def recommend coming here and getting some really good food!! read more

Oh my God everything here is so good don't be freaked out by the appearance of the building First time I went in there wasn't a soul in the place there was no AC so it was really hot I kinda got weirded out and left. Couple of the times I've gone by parking lot has been packed so I thought I'd give it a try and it is probably one of the best Chinese restaurants I've been to it's so good the owner is so precious what a nice lady!! Like I said everything is excellent if you don't know what to get have her recommend you the house specialties and you won't be disappointed I've been here on a fire assignment for 60 days and I've probably eaten there about twice a week and have not got tired of it. Support these wonderful people and their business they deserve it read more

This is the perfect little Chinese restaurant! The service is excellent! A kind waitress was extremely attentive and funny. The food was nostalgic of the Chinese restaurants I went to as a kid and they had plenty of vegan options. I will come back each time I'm in Santa Fe! read more

After so much delicious Mexican food we were craving something different. We got several dishes to take out and it was fresh, very good and they even gave us complimentary pot stickers. Yum! read more

Mongolian Beef and Bokchoy. Both taste really good. They offered us free dumplings because it was a traditional Chinese festival yesterday. read more

Amazing Chinese food! We don't have this kind of Chinese food in Dallas so I was so happy when we discovered Song's last year. Now it's an annual thing we do when we're in town. Everything is good but the classics (ie sesame chicken) are awesome. They don't serve alcohol as an fyi and takeout is the way to go. read more

We are from Houston, so if any of you Texans are reading this, move along! and just go get some Mexican food. Houston has great Chinese and Thai restaurants, so we know what good Chinese food tastes like. The owner is fantastic! She came and cleaned our table for a second time since the last person didn't do it right. She made great conversation and has a very likable personality, maybe that's the reason why people come back? The place was very outdated, musty look and feel. Try not to touch or lean on anything while you are there. I kept telling myself, good food is definitely possible in hole in the wall places. I read reviews here and decided on their famous Egg Foo Young (which i thought was vegetarian?!, it was on the special menu with no description anywhere to be found), Kung Pao chicken and cheese puffs. People said to avoid Thai food here so i didn't get the Pad Thai which i was initially eyeing. Egg Foo Young was drenched I mean like a friggin waterfall of brown sauce with EVERYTHING in it, it had beef, chicken, shrimp and vegetables just overwhelmed in the sauce. I didn't like the sauce and thats all you could taste on top of everything. Not to mention $18 for that. The kung pao and cheese puffs were lacking as well, I have had much better. I can see why people may like this place, because there isnt much choice in Taos, NM. read more

Food is flavorful. Service is great! Plenty of vegetarian options. Reasonable prices. If you're in Taos looking for a quick delicious dinner, this is the place. read more

OK, here we go. First don't order anything but Chinese here. If you know better, you will be dismayed. If you don't know better, wait until you can eat at a Thai, Vietnamese, or Sushi stand-alone restaurant. This place is trying to be all things to all people and I think they need to consolidate their menu. I don't have to even try the other non-Chinese dishes. The other Yelpers have written as much. Read the reviews. Not pretty. Thai Curry is an easy dish to make so maybe that would work. Sushi? Are you crazy? I had the Spicy Garlic Chicken and it was VERY GOOD. I had to petition for some rice which was part of the order and a no-brainer. Just a mistake and the server apologized. I appreciated that. Now, the pot stickers needed some better cooking technique. They were crispy like fortune cookies. Not cool. Plus, the sauce never showed up. Shoot, even I know how to cook potstickers. First steam them and then cook in a pan with a little oil to brown them. Somebody has to watch some YouTube vids or at least read the directions on the side of the bag, yo. Last, the Hot and Sour soup was also a no show. The server, to her credit, owned up for that. I surmise she is new and doing her best. As long as she is honest, then I can handle that as an error vs. issuing some moral commentary and invective. So, it was a dysfunctional meal to a degree but the Spicy Garlic Chicken was the main attraction and it carried the day. There is room for improvement but this turned out well despite my ahead of time misgivings about Pan-Asian joints and the service which was in need of some rectification. read more

We moved to Taos Ski Valley this year and we love eating in or having takeout. The food is amazing. We have tried about everything on the menu. I can't say I have a favorite dish because I like them all. The price is right and the staff is very friendly. We will continue to go back. read more

Delicious food and amazing service! They were very friendly, definitely stop by if you're in town.

It was a surprisingly cold day here in Taos and we wanted to get some comfort food and hot soup. We got so much more. Connie was absolutely amazing, friendly and fun. Our orders came out perfectly and better than we expected. The dumplings were like none we've ever had, they were amazing and kept the authenticity only found in traditional recipes. We will definitely make sure to come back with each Taos visit! read more

We recently had some terrible Chinese Asian take in white rock, so bear this in mind After a day of skiing we ordered a bunch of stuff from Songs. The spicy eggplant was excellent, the Korean stir fry was very spicy, and the Pho was Pho. Their selection is wide and I wished we ate in since there were several specials and sushi. Definitely worth reheating at breakfast and eating in the sparsely equipped Taos Valley Lodge breakfast area read more
