We Texans wanted to try Mexican food in New Mexico. We found this to be healthier (corn tortillas, less cheese, less oiliness, more veggies) than back home. The guacamole was sublime - melt in your mouth explode with flavor. The Agave Tequila Margarita was fabulous....And the spaced tables on the outdoor patio was much appreciated in these Covid times.More

We enjoyed takeout food from this place. Looks like a dive but the food was really good. Lots of choices on the menu.

When in doubt, choose the little hole-in-the-wall with lots of cars. That was definitely the case at La Cueva Cafe. Centrally located across the street from the Plaza, the staff were over-the-top friendly and accommodating and the food was delicious — surprisingly so! I had the...shrimp tacos and Brian the enchiladas. The presentation, sauces and super-fresh flavors were exactly what we were seeking.More

La Cueva was recommended by a shop owner. It is a diamond in the rough!! We could only get carry out due to covid-19. The wait for our food was only about 10 minutes. The chips are amazing! And the chili rellenos are so good...and have a nice kick! Muy Bueno!! Highly recommended!!More

The food here is outstanding and they are very knowledgeable about gluten free options. Their customer service was outstanding.

It's probably the first thing you see as you approach the Taos plaza, and what it lacks in curb appeal, is more than made up for with service and a tasty menu. We sat outside, up at the back, away from the noise of the...street. The northern New Mexico menu is excellent. Service was good. In fact, even though they were busy, we had three different wait staff check to see if we needed anything and that the food was to our liking. There are other more expensive places to eat in Taos, but we'll good back here next time we're in town.More

We were directed here by a local fishing guide who understands good food. It was easy to find, outdoor seating well-spaced from other diners, in great old building that seemed to tilt to the starboard. We would eat lunch here everyday if possible!
