Not only was the food and service GREAT at Orlando's, but the owner and staff are very honest and kind. After I accidentally left my purse there before returning to Colorado, I called the cafe in a panic. A staffer immediately reassured me that they had found my purse, and then the owner -- Orlando himself! -- told me that... more

Really nice. Great patio, great food. more

While in New Mexico we ate in several resturants. I would say that Orlando's was mine and my 15 year old son's favorites. It was second on my wife's list second to the Pink Adobe in Santa Fe. Orlando's is an informal place, the best dinning locations are outside under brightly colored unbrellas. It was difficult to find a parking... more

We found this place on tripadvisor. The reviews are correct. Excellent food and the service was excellent too. While we only waited 20 minutes for a table, time enough to enjoy a drink, it seemed that those that arrived after we did (7pm on a Monday) waited much longer. However, the wait is well worth it.

I left my sole Orlando’s “experience” yesterday both angry and with an upset stomach. After a day to think about it I guess I am most angry with myself, as I did what I normally don’t do and that’s let the suggestion of a stranger influence my restaurant decision with no further research. My wife and I had traveled all... more

Great local place for a casual meal of authentic New Mexico food. Recommended by our B&B host, it was the perfect place for our first night's meal, since we were tired and hungry and not willing to shower and dress for one of the fancier Taos restaurants. You absolutely have to try their Guacamole - it is fabulous! more

Heck, we are from Vermont and never eat Mexican food! But as they say about art, we know what we like. We arrived late so there was no problem with seating. Service was prompt and pleasant and the food tasty. What more can you ask of a restaurant! more
