• Food, location, people.
• Can get a bit crowded.

“My family owns a home in New Mexico and we visit many times a year. For at least the past 4-5 years Orlando's has been everyone's favorite restaurant. It is tough to keep us from going there every night while we are on our trip since everyone loves the food and the restaurant overall. We have even gotten a chance to know the owner as well as his friendly family staff. As a vegetarian, I have limited choices, but I absolutely love the Christmas (green and red chile) smoothered veggie burrito. There is always enough food (I usually have plenty of leftovers for the next day), but if you can, save room for the flan or the frozen avocado pie. I could not recommend this restaurant more highly. Everyone who visits Taos should make sure to check it out, you will not leave disappointed.”

“We went to Orlando's while in Taos for a few days, having been referred there by a local person. Great food! The green chili chicken enchiladas were fantastic. Orlando's is a small, comfortable place that I would highly recommend. The prices are very reasonable, too. ”

• Great tasting food and I love the green sauce on the chicken enchiladas.
• None.

“Wonderful food, I just love the green sauce on the chicken enchiladas. I've been coming to Taos since 2000 and make sure to eat at Orlando¿s each trip at least once if not twice! I highly recommend it to everyone. It's fun to sit around the outside fire pit and have great conversations with other travelers. Looking forward to my next visit.”

• Food, food, and food. The patio is nice too.
• Service is almost always painfully slow.

“Indoors you will find it a little crowded, the only reason it's not preferable with small children, however still very romantic and intimate. And that doesn't stop us from taking our children! Outdoors, great patio dining. Blue corn enchiladas are like no other! The only item I've ordered in about 13-15 visits because they're so good I just can't pass them up.”
