“Staff was friendly, courteous and knowledgeable about the menu. The green chile cheese burger was delicious as was the black bean vegetarian burger my friend got. The waffle fries were tasty and a nice treat. We were looking for a nice dessert of ice cream and were delighted to order their homemade apple pie a la mode. Just a fabulous end to a super delicious lunch! Thank you, we will be back and will recommend your family owned and operated Enchanted restaurant to all our friends 🧡 Well done!“

“I have been enjoying Toribios food for many years now. Over 12 years my wife and I tried many items on the menu. However, my favorite is the breakfast burrito. On many fly fishing trips up north, Toribios is my last stop before leaving town. Armed with my breakfast burrito, hot coffee, and fly fishing gear it is just a wonderful way to start the day. At least to this customer.“

“We just had the most incredible anniversary dinner at De La Tierra restaurant at the Monte de Sagrado in Taos! The chili rellenos were out of this world —what did you put in the beans to make them so, so amazing?!?. My husband’s salmon was beautiful to look at and cooked to perfection. The corn succotash brought the plate together in a harmonious symphony of flavor (his words, not mine;) But the best part was the s’mores dessert which was revealed from under a smoking ceramic dome with caramel poured over the top table-side. It was a veritable volcano of deliciousness. What an exceptional dinner, the service and flavors were beyond our expectations! My only tiny suggestion is that they need some background music to accompany the beautiful atmosphere. De La Tierra is the perfect place in Taos if you want an intimate and unforgettable meal!“

“This place was a little unusual. No wait staff except to deliver orders. Fast food format. Order and pay prior to meals. Flies we prominent outside so we moved inside. Only to be have a pesky fly there as well. Atmosphere was a work in progress. Moderatly priced. Good place for a good, quick, cost-effective meal. Lots of seating but more as a convenience than an attraction.“

“Yes. I am the guy who always wants to know where the really good food is. Even in a small town, there’s always something good. Found it in Taos: the Taos Chicharron Burrito (it’s a food truck). The Chicharron Burrito was divine. Simple. Fresh, hot tortilla filled with Chicharron, perfect beans, and cheese. Crunchy, yet chewy, and absolutely delicious. Sitting under a big red umbrella under the beautiful blue sky and listening to the distant sound of Mexican radio, spatulas clacking, and happily talking. I’ll be back.“

“I have no idea why this establishment has only a 3.9. It almost deterred us from going there. We are so glad we ignored the 3.9 rating! It was perfect! We each enjoyed an amazing meal and I basked in a delicious glass of Bordeaux. We loved the atmosphere and the ambiance. I'd give more stars if I could.“
