"Excellent food, wine and service. We live in the SF Bay are and visit Taos frequently, this is our one certain reservation. On this visit we were served by Rick, exemplary attention to detail and well thought through suggestions and answers to our questions. The level of training extends to all involved; Jose who looked after clearing our table circled unobtrusively and yet was there at the precisely correct moment each time with warmth and courtesy. These things do not happen by accident, they are the result of good management. Oh, did I mention the food? Well, that is why we come here. There are many fine dining choices in Taos, but if you had one night to eat in town, dare I say it; mahe it Graham's Grille. Thanks Lesley & Team"

"We've been to Grahams several times & have always enjoyed it. The upside-excellent dinner! Lots of wonderful flavors, nice presentation, food was hot, salad was fresh, portions were great! The downside-service, as always, was slow. Don't expect to grab a quick meal. Although the flavors on the french toast at brunch were good, it was very dry-I was surprised at this based on how well dinner had been executed the night before. This was the first time I've been to Grahams and not had good service which was unfortunate. As mentioned, the service has always been slow, but friendly. This time, the waitresses, especially the brunch one, seemed uninterested, unwelcoming, and bothered by us. We'll come back, just hope the service improves!"

"I come to Taso about every six months with my husband. Graham's never disappoints. We have dinner there at least twice and while my husband is off on business during the day, I get to Graham's at least twice for lunch. The variety and quality is amazing. I highly recommend this restaurant!"

"Graham's Grill had been recommended to us by a former local and they were so right to send us there. The food was incredible, the descriptions on the menu made us want to try everything and everything we tried lived up to its description. Their menu accommodates many diet difficulties and they will work to make menu items fit yours. But the real reason we were so pleased was the service. They went above and beyond what you would usually expect from any restaurant and then above some more. When in Taos you really MUST experience this!"

"We ordered the Green chile cioppino and found it to be way too salty. Also the chicken parmesan special was fare at best. Not nearly as good as a traditionally prepared breaded dish."

"We had a perfect dinner experience at Graham's grill (and we rarely feel that way!). We had the trout and clam & bacon pasta and both were absolutely delicious. Everyone was very friendly, service was on point and we finished the meal sharing a delightful peanut butter/chocolate mousse dessert. We came to Taos for a long weekend and will definitely visit Graham's again in the future!"

"This is our third time eating at Graham's Grille. Consistently good food, great wine menu and excellent service. Our server made good recommendations and knew the menu and wine. Steak overcooked, but acknowledged by the staff and wonderful gelato on the house. Trout dinner well prepared. would return again."

"We had the most amazing breakfast! Had the vanilla orange French toast. Huge portion! Absolutely delicious! My daughter had the sausage gravy and biscuits which was so delicious that you almost don't need the biscuits! The husband had an omelet and hashbrowns that were so good he decided not to use the ketchup and tobasco sauce that he always uses! He said he's never had more perfect hashbrowns before. We loved it so much we went back for lunch two days later. It was just as amazing. The burgers cooked exactly to our request and they even went our of their way to prepare a menu item that is no longer on the lunch menu but only on the dinner menu (Fettucini Alfredo) for us to take back to or daughter in the hotel who wasn't feeling well."

"The quality and freshness of the food could not be better. The mixture of fresh produce per serving was superb. Sons had 4oz pork chop (rec. 8oz) and adult Mac plate (awesome). We had Red Trout (huge, very nicely prepared), tenderloin & crab cakes (awesome).
I, wife and two young kids ate on busy night of Spring Break. Wife had issue with waiter leaving table because when called to the kitchen prior to ordering. As soon as waiter noted she was upset, bent over backwards to please us and was great waiter. Chef/owner also apologized. Also had a very nice conversation with the hostess who we had met when she was working at the Children's ski school.

"First visit. It was very nice. Lots of food! Sunday brunch options are endless. The corn, crab and bacon chowder was some of the best chowder I have ever tasted. Hubby loved the corn cakes. We will be back next time we're in Taos."

"The menu has great variety and everything is delicious. We always enjoy coming to Graham's but I will say a trip to Graham's is viewed more as a treat for us since I think the prices are a bit high. Therefore we only come as a special treat, rather than making it one of our regular restaurant spots to dine."
