We sat in the main restaurant, a 5 small tabletop spot. It was very busy but the staff kept up with all the orders. The portion sizes were normal and I appreciated that. The veggie burrito was tasty as was the chili relleno. Good food!

Our meal was excellent. We started off with the chips and salsa which was very good, especially the salsa. My wife had a chicken and beef Fajitas and I had the Plato Combinado. They were both delicious. Service was good.

Looks like a family run restaurant and simply love the food! Enjoyed the fajitas and enchiladas, very delicious. Highly recommend, note that it is a very small restaurant with limited seats.

The restaurant was recommended by my cousin who is a frequent traveller to New Mexico. I concur with his choice. La Cueva offers excellent southwestern cuisine in an informal mostly outdoor setting . Prices are moderate and service is good and prompt. The location was...within easy walking distance from my hotel near the plaza which was fortunate because there is limited parking available at the restaurant. I would not hesitate returning again to this restaurant as I liked the food very much.More

Saw good reviews and decided to try it for ourselves. Definitely a small hole in the wall with very limited indoor space but outdoor dining available weather permitting. For lunch my husband had the rellenos NM that he loved while I tried the chicken mole...enchiladas, which were good but didn’t leave me with a wow. In fairness, I rarely have mole sauce so don’t have anything to compare it to. Wait staff was very friendly, and we didn’t have to wait long for food.More

On a snowy evening the friendly staff and reasonably priced food was awesome. The beef in the beef tacos was tender but the chili rellenos with green chili was the favorite. Best we’ve ever had!

Terrific food in Taos. The day we arrived in this adorable town, we headed to the grocery store to pick up a few items. On the way we passed La Cueva, a tiny establishment , & people were lined up to get in the door....We decided a place this popular must be good. We returned for lunch the next day. The food and service were outstanding. Prices were very reasonable. Don't let the tiny place and the so so appearance of this restaurant stop you from having a meal there. It's a little gem.More

We had remembered how good the food was at this restaurant six years earlier and decided to return for another try. The food was still excellent. We shared the fish tacos and the shrimp tacos. Both rated “excellent”. From the outside, this doesn’t look like...much. Inside, they only have four tables although they do have patio seating, as well. Will return again!More

Not really in the very centre of Taos - just a short walk away. Very busy when we visited - cash only on the day. We were seated in the plaza at the back and had fast service as we said we were in a...hurry. Reasonably priced tacos etc - saw all the fresh ingredients being delivered.More

Great service, great food quality , wonderful setting, excellent portion sizes, and obviously homemade guacamole! Oh… and all that at a VERY reasonable price!

After a terrible confrontation with the owner of Stella's Italian Restaurant we walked down the street to the La Cueva Cafe, was greeted and taken to our table. Service was good, they brought my diner but forgot my wife’s. Caught the attention of a waiter...and she apologized and remedied the situation quickly. Would eat there again.More

Food was good. We ate here 2 times. The first time I had Beer battered Cod Fish Tacos with Chipotle mayo. My husband had shrimp enchiladas with chipotle cream sauce. And flan. He loved the flan. We ate outside on the patio. Second time we...were not as hungry, so we had soup. I had roasted tomato soup and he had corn cream soup with Poblano pepper. Very good. The beer was cold. Staff was friendly. Reasonable.More
