Excellent choice if you're looking for a dinner that is more upscale. They source locally and pride themselves on freshness, and it shows. Call for reservations. They only accept cash or check (I know, it's strange), so come prepared. Additional bonus, the restaurant is a converted Catholic church from the 1800s!

Only open on Sunday evenings, but it’s worth the wait if you’re in Taos on a Sunday. Stunning place to enjoy a drink and watch the sunset.

Awesome Experiences
Need a haircut or a shave? Enter the Hitching Post and travel back in time to the days of old Westerns. Kristeena, the owner, has expertly curated a collection of western decor that creates a warm and welcoming environment - think wooden stagecoach wheels, taxidermy raccoons, and well-loved Stetsons and lassos hanging. Listen to George Jones while getting a professional trim, and Kristeena’s warm lather shaves can’t be beat. Come out tipping your hat like John Wayne.
