Lounges in Taos, NM

“We visited the Lounge by Rolling Still Distillery after dinner. The drinks were handcrafted works of art that were beyond delicious. The staff are incredibly talented, knowledgeable and friendly. This is a must visit.“

“We loved everything we tried at De La Tierra. In the restaurant they allow you to order from the restaurant or bar menu. Both have a great selection. Fair warning the portions are HUGE!!! All of us should have split. As a party of five we tried a lot of things on the menu. The mushroom toast appetizer was delicious and the lobster kimchi risotto although pricey was very creative. The bar drinks were all great and equally creative. For entrees we tried the salmon, steak frites, chicken schnitzel (this is big enough for 3 almost, and a Ruben with a side salad. Absolutely everything was stellar and we all took home a box. The salmon was a huge portion and cooked perfectly medium rare as well was the steak frites. The chicken schnitzel was super crispy on a bed on the most amazing mashed potatoes I've tasted in a long time. The Ruben was excellent but the creamy herb dressing on my side salad was described as an herb ranch. I loved it. It was very herby and creamy something I would recreate for my daily salads. We all had the lavender cream brûlée for dessert and there was not a drop left. Service was very attentive all the way around. We will definitely be back.“

“⭐️ Cozy Southwest Vibes & Live Music Nights in Taos 🎶

If you’re visiting Taos and looking for a warm, authentic New Mexico experience, Sagebrush Grill & Cantina is the perfect stop. Located inside the historic Sagebrush Inn & Suites, this place combines rustic charm, local culture, and a friendly atmosphere that makes you feel instantly relaxed.

We came on a cold evening when the mountain air was freezing, and walking into this adobe-style restaurant felt like stepping into a cozy retreat wooden beams, handcrafted chairs, candles on the tables, and soft live music in the background. The band played blues and country classics, and the vibe was simply perfect.

I ordered a House Margarita, asked for it less sweet and it was fresh, crisp, and balanced exactly how a margarita should be. They also offer great craft cocktails like the Dark & Stormy or Spicy Moscow Mule, plus local Taos Mesa Porter and La Cumbre beers on tap. Service was kind and attentive, and prices were fair for the quality and ambiance.

If you’re staying nearby or just passing through Taos, this is a must-visit spot for a relaxing dinner, a drink by the bar, or simply to enjoy the Southwest spirit with live music and a genuine smile. 🎺🌵🍸“
