Loved my breakfast Tacos. Paid a little extra for sprinkled bacon. Potatoes came out crispy as requested. My husband enjoyed his blue corn waffles. Our server was so kind. We enjoyed our 2 cups of coffee. An easy walk from the Taos Inn if you run fast enough to avoid cars.

I had the best tuna melt of my life here. SO delicious, the fries were scrumptious. The arnold palmer I ordered was also delicious. HIGHLY recommend this place if you’re looking for a delicious sandwich, yummy fries, & the best atmosphere. They’re also extremely dog-friendly, which I loved.

Best breakfast we've had so far and the view to an old courtyard is lovely. Our waiter Lucas was attentive and polite. Big portions of tasty food. The side pancake is more like a regular portion. Excellent coffee.

Had an amazing brunch here. Everything we ordered was amazing waffles, soup, burrito, hot chocolate. The service was quick. I experienced amazing Taosian hospitality at this restaurant. I had forgotten my bag here and was already on a flight back home. Their manager took the pains of sending my bag through courier the very next day. He was so helpful when he didn't really have to.

What an absolute hidden gem this place is! Stopped by while driving through Taos and had incredible food. Server was very attentive and even went downstairs to grab us more coconut milk for a cappuccino! New Mexican Chicken and Waffle was a really fun play on a classic, but if you want to go the safer route, they have a mean breakfast burrito too. Not too pricey and completely worth the money you spend there. To top everything off, the restaurant is clean, modern, and bright, a very nice atmosphere to enjoy great food.

GREAT FOOD, INVITING SPACES

Guillermo Casarrubias and Linda Gutekunst came to Taos in 2018 after dropping everything and retiring.

The mountain called us… we had to answer!

Guillermo has been professionally cooking and opening restaurants from Mexico City to Hollywood for over 35 years. The partners share a passion for doing hospitality right.

“Sometimes being greeted by a smiling face is everything,” Linda says. “Feeling welcome happens in all the little details that make the dining experience memorable throughout each and every bite. We always want guests to take something away that makes them want to come back!”

It’s not just about being a chef... I love making food, but when someone else has a bite of that food and you can see the radiance in their face... that's the whole enchilada.
