★★★★★ 5.0 Brian McLaurin · Feb 2026

BEST RESTAURANT IN TAOS. I cannot even begin to express how delicious everything was. The empanadas were perfect little pillows, cooked evenly. The paella was the best I had ever had... The delicate consistency with a slight crisp. Absolutely perfect. The FLAN was SO DELICIOUS that we ordered a second one after the first was gone. I cannot wait for my next trip to Taos so that I can return to this restaurant. The staff was very kind and the restaurant was a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere.

Really enjoyed the food here. We shared the Peruvian street ceviche which was amazing flavor and I liked the crunchy corn to complement the fish. My favorite was the Tallarin Verde. Wow. The tagliatelle was so tasty with a creamy pesto. The steak has a nice char! Also has a local NM gin martini and their passion fruit cheesecake. All delicious.

Unexpectedly amazing. We had our first dinner at Aji on 12.29, the lamb chop with fried rice and the steak with pesto pasta was amazing. It was so good that we asked if they still have available tables for the NYE, luckily they do. We came here two days later and this time we ordered the ribeye and duck leg for main. They were even better than the food we ordered last time. For starters I strongly recommend the Aji dip and the beef heart; for dessert the flan is one of the best I’ve ever had.
