I moved to Taos about five years ago from Arizona. Doc Martens has been our go to for the holidays over the past few years. However, I must say this year was the most disappointing yet the food was extremely mediocre, And seemed like it was prepared yesterday and reheated. After dinner, we made our way to the Adobe bar, where unfortunately the drinks are delicious. However, the service is like a circus. Our waitress was more concerned with flirting with the Cowboys in her section and how she look in her leggings rather than serving Drinks. I think it is very distasteful that the servers are Allowed to wear leggings and yoga pants. Overall, I would not recommend Doc Martens at the moment nor will my wife and I’ll be returning in the future. I’m not sure what has changed over the years, but it is very noticeable..

Even if you enjoy the vibe of this place, the workers are so overworked and understaffed, I would suggest going elsewhere for a lighter conscience. The food was lukewarm, burger was overdone (I did not oder it well-done), they were out of condiments, and we waited over an hour for our food for 3 people despite having a reservation. It's also very overpriced considering this.

Was not happy with this place unfortunately. Dinner for 4 people with water was $242 with the $40 tip . Wife got halibut and son got carne asada. Theirs was good. My daughter and myself got the 8 oz steak mashed potatoes and asparagus. We didn't make it 15 minutes before we were unbelievable sick. It ruined our vacation in snow skiing for the next few days. The food poisoning was horrible... My wife paid over $100 for me and my daughter to be horribly sick... Will never return to that place again.

Doc Martin’s is attached to the Taos Inn. The atmosphere is fairly casual. I gave the atmosphere 4 stars because it isn’t loud!
The food offerings were everything from burgers, Mexican, to fish. We opted to skip appetizers and just ordered a main course. We chose the trout which was served over fresh vegetables and the piñon crusted chili rellenos. The flavors were nice and fairly mild.
For dessert, a chocolate sundae and carrot cake, pretty basic.
The seasonal cocktails were not fancy, but decent. The wine list definitely needs improvement.
Highly recommend reservations as the space is on the smaller size and fills up nightly.

Drinks and chips and salsa were good and it was nice to hang out there. The entrees were the downside - very bland and beef way overcooked. Wouldn’t come back for an entree especially at that price.

On a Monday evening the restaurant was very quiet. Service was very good, nice conversation with the server. The Blue-Corn Enchilada plate with chicken and green chili sauce was my idea of comfort food -- warm and spicy. My wife had the Roasted Beet & Goat Cheese was very tasty with a very large portion. As always, we had a wonderful time.

We enjoyed our dinner last night with a lovely waitress, great draft beer, and fun fish & chips and chicken fajitas. Would come again.

Food was great. Carrot cake was delicious! However, the service needs to be more efficient. Drink arrived after the soup.
This is supposed to be an award winning margarita and was small, very little alcohol and very pricey. The food not much better, save your money.

Our server was excellent and knowledgeable. The food was above average although the pork stew was not very good. we felt it was overpriced, but overall it was understood as being in a high-end town.

This was the best place we ate at in Taos, by far. Carne Asada was out of this world. Smash burger was possibly the best ever. Service was perfect. Ask for Trish for great service.
Richard
Our go-to for nearly 40-YRS. 5* however the chile Ellen platter could have been hotter, temp-wise, given the cheese needed to have been melted more. The Caesar Salad & Tres-leche dessert was 10*!!

Carried by the coolness of the inn I think. I wasn’t super impressed by my burrito. Nice atmosphere but not worth the price.
