“You know, when people in Taos say, “stop at the gas station next to the casino on your way back to Santa Fe for some killer tacos,” most people probably think, “yeah, thanks, no.”

Most people are wrong.

These tacos are excellent. They’re gas station tacos only in that the kitchen is attached to a gas station. Beyond that, these tacos are in their own taco-verse.

Stop here to eat tacos. Three is filling. Don’t kid yourself.”

“Was it busy all day for Valentine's Day? I'm sure! So maybe it was an off day. However the food and service were lacking. Food was overly salted and missing ingredients. We were not served something we ordered and it remained on the bill and seemed like a bother to take off. Our food did come out promptly which was great as we were hungry. But everything else was really lacking. My water cup was empty for the entire meal evening even after asking for a refill. The restaurant was clean beautiful and calm.”
