Adobe - Taos
Adobe
Description
An iconic Taos spot, Adobe Bar pairs historic charm and nightly live music with creative New Mexican dishes and expertly mixed cocktails—the chile relleno, blue-corn enchiladas and green-chile stew stand out. The space feels like the town’s living room: cozy, buzzing and full of locals and tourists. Expect a small, sometimes cramped bar, pricey portions and inconsistent, often rushed service; the kitchen and seating can be limited after music ends. Best for those seeking atmosphere, music and bold flavors rather than flawless service.

This is another bar/restaurant that limped out of the pandemic to become worse than ever. Positive our 19yo inexperienced waitress was on drugs. She mentioned that the kitchen hadn 't noticed our order, which is 100% nonsense since she brought out a giant plate of nachos that had clearly been sitting under the heat lamp for quite awhile. Getting your desserts from the food truck and attempting to pass them off as authentic when it doesn 't resemble tres leches cake (which is one of the simplest peasant desserts ever, btw) doesn 't cut it for locals or tourists. We 're local and just moved back. Unfortunate to see that the Adobe Bar has fallen to the degree that the staff is worse than ever and so is the overpriced food, but we 've been told this is a reflection of how many hospitality professionals left the area in the past few years. This place is a tourist trap; it 's not the living room of Taos. Do better. We used to enjoy the music and sitting outside on the patio, but seriously, the service and food at Adobe Bar have gotten worse so we don 't plan to go back. It 's definitely a bar with historic status; but this doesn 't change the fact that poor hiring practices coupled with sub-par food makes it an adequate choice to frequent. The location is great, but you 're coasting on a reputation that 's no longer valid. Locals know this; I give praise where praise is due.
Wish I would have gotten to try the food and drink. Great reviews. I sat at a table for 15-20 minutes. Server walked by me several times and never even acknowledged me. Walked out and went somewhere else. I have edited my review to reflect the quick response from management. Thanks
We came for a romantic dinner at the bar expecting a much nicer experience. The wait staff were super rushed and had no time or niceties for us. The food wasn’t as good as we hoped for, we had the chille rellano and the shrimp mushroom tacos. We said we were sharing both dishes however the tacos came with just 3 miny tacos. When we asked for another one the kitchen was closed and it was a big issue to bring another one. The ambience was good initially with great live music however once the musician finished playing around 9.30p they started cleaning, turning on lights and hurrying us out. A disappointing experience.
