What a great dinner! The staff is super friendly and welcoming—especially with four-footed friends. 🐶 The food is excellent. We enjoyed a combo plate so we could taste more house specialties. The beef taco was succulent and rich. Go for the fish tacos, too! Everything is fresh and tasty. A real winner price-wise, too!
Very good authentic Mexican food. Really small place and there is usually a line waiting. But we only waited for 10-15 minutes. Seems as if all seating is outside. I got the Frito Pie and my husband got the Chili Rellonos. Both were very good. Service was great and our server checked on us many times to make sure we were OK. Would definitely go back if ever in the area.
Had an excellent lunch here! The food is authentic and delicious. The eclectic environment on the patio had a great vibe, everyone enjoying themselves. I stopped in at just the right time, no line and received fast, friendly, excellent service! All the employees had smiles on their faces and were very polite and courteous. Thoroughly impressed with the entire experience, so much so that I stayed and had some nachos and a margarita! I will definitely return.
Sat out on the patio on a beautiful autumn day. Ordered the seafood enchiladas and the chicken chimichanga. Both were stuffed with meat. Ordered a glass of wine as well, with a side of guacamole. Hubby ordered the chocolate cake for dessert. Delicious! Wonderful service. Close to the plaza.
Go for the food, stay for the service. Excellent, fresh food with friendly, courteous service with reasonable prices and at a good location. Both indoor and outdoor seating options are available but seating inside is in a smaller room. Overall, what’s not to love!
We ordered the fish n chips, the seafood enchiladas (lots of crab!), veggie burrito, chilli rellenos topping it off with a delightful flan.
Everything was excellent. Highly recommended!
P.S: they add a small service fee. Not sure why.
It was the hot spot for lunch in Taos. I took my order to go, as seating was very limited. Mainly patio seating. I ordered a veggie burrito, and hands down is my favorite burrito that I have had. The veggies were roasted zucchini and peppers. The green chili on top was perfection. It was an amazingly flavorful meal that I wish I had regular access to. Service was awesome, too. Friendly and fast
La Cueva serves great, super flavorful Mexican food. Came here for lunch and ordered the veggie burrito and veggie tacos. They were able to easily customize for vegan (no cheese and no sour cream). The food was delicious, better than most Mexican restaurants we often frequent. Staff was pleasant, large outdoor dog friendly patio and cozy space indoors with a few tables.
One of the best restaurants in not just Taos but I’d say New Mexico…maybe even the south west. Easily the best beans and rice I’ve ever had(and consider I’m from LA). When God is in the mood to eat a Chile relleno I’m quite certain he comes here…but get the combo plate with the amazing taco and enchilada as well.
Don’t forget their legendary chipotle chocolate cake. It’s unreal delicious…and I don’t even like cake.
Went here with my cousin who is a local. It’s small but boy howdy, was it good. My cousin loves the seafood enchiladas, I ordered the enchiladas de camarónes (shrimp) and hubby ordered the mole enchiladas (chicken). Each of us would swear our individual plate was the best. Seriously, give it a try. Currently (09/23) road construction is RIGHT THERE. Park across the street and hike over. It’s absolute worth it.
