We both ordered the Spicy Green Chile BLAT Wrap, and it was fresh, flavorful, and packed with ingredients. The green chile added just the right amount of kick.

Finally we figured it had been put on the wrong side of the Main Street so we went the other way and ended up hungry and ready for a drink and dinner. The only negative is that I couldn't get a margarita other than the wine margaritas they have. Since there is a sweet and sour mix in them I went for a white wine instead and it was perfect for the day. We ordered our drinks and chips and guacamole to get started while we looked at the menu. Our server was super and we sat on the patio in the shade which was lovely. There was plenty of shade for the hot day. To stave off our hunger while we looked at the menu we ordered the chips and salsa with guacamole. The salsa was fabulous as was the rest but I had to comment on the salsa because so often these days it's just too tomato-y or bland. This was flavorful and had a bit of spice. For dinner, we ordered the steak tampiquena and I would get it again. Savory, perfectly cooked and hearty. Check this place out if you are visiting!

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!

The place looked pretty good for a run down building (it's supposed to be rundown - that's a Taos's "thing"). The food, just okay. Brisket sliders were just a snack. Not a meal. Burger was okay except the cheese should go on the meat and the chilies on that so it does all slowly fall out. Fried pickles were great (except my friend, who ordered them didn't agree).

We walked from our B&B and it didn't look like much from the outside but it is classy inside. Upon entering the air was a bit stifling. The windows were open and there was a breeze so we asked to sit by the window which was no problem. The decor was tasteful and. It overdone. The service was a bit slow but staff is friendly. Our server always kept a distance we are aren't used to when being served and it seemed as though she wanted to drop things off with arms stretched as far as possible and in fact she didn't pour the bottle of wine we ended up with. I appreciated her recommendations and especially when I asked about the wine she recommended a different one than the one we first suggested. She was right! We ended up getting a delicious Koyle Cabernet. We ordered the duck and the lamb. The duck was 10/10 amazing! The lamb was cooked medium well for some reason as we were not asked and assumed it would be medium rare. Don't assume they say! It was dry and fatty. Seems strange I know but there you go.
