“Visiting from Texas I came here after visiting several other restaurants and seeing their super high prices. I found Ricky's out of frustration and I am so glad I did. I got the 5 chicken tacos for $10.95 and oh baby they are most delish in my opinion and the salsa that came with it was a generous amount. The flavor of these tacos and the taco shell was some of the best I've had. Whenever in Taos again, Daddy will definitely be back for more. Thanks Ricky!!“

“I recently went to De La Tierra for my 4th or 5th time. The food is consistently delicious, beautifully plated, and the service was very attentive. The atmosphere, on the other hand, was uncomfortable. There was just one other table w a crying infant, and the lighting was so bright! We mentioned it to the server, who agreed, and said there was nothing she could do about it. It definitely impacted the mood, we felt like we were in a bus station. It's such a shame to have such high quality food with premium prices ruined by a lack of attention to ambiance. I will definitely opt eat at the Anaconda bar next time.“

“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.“

Everything was delicious except for the eggs. They were more like egg crumbles and sure didn’t look like two eggs to me. My wife had breakfast tacos. She loved them! Made me wish I had ordered the tacos.“
