" Orlando’s is a cozy establishment that serves great food! I particularly enjoyed their tamales, which were delightful and flavorful. The staff was very attentive, ensuring we had everything we needed during our meal. The interior is bright and welcoming, and I could tell a lot of love went into their dishes. Didn't have to wait long, and the prices were reasonable, especially for such generous portions. " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing how great Orlando's was, I finally visited after a family road trip. The place is small but full of character, and the decor definitely reflected New Mexican culture. I ordered the combo plate to get a taste of various dishes, and they were all freshly made. However, I felt a bit rushed as we ate counter to a busy lunch crowd. Overall, I think it's worth a stop if you're in Taos, but I’d probably strategize my timing next time to avoid the crowds. " (*Curated Review*)

" Came here for lunch and was really excited, but I found the experience a bit lackluster. The food was tasty, don't get me wrong, but I expected something more authentic given the rave reviews. I tried the shrimp burrito but found it a bit bland. Service was friendly, but we had to wait longer than expected to place our order. The decor is quite colorful, which I liked, but the noise level made conversation challenging. I may give it another shot, but I'm not rushing back anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" A lovely place to visit while in Taos! The food, especially the carne adovada, was flavorful and tender. The atmosphere was warm and relaxing, making it an ideal spot for dinner after a day of exploring the town. Pricing was reasonable for the quality offered. Definitely one to recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" I came across Orlando’s while looking for a place to have dinner, and wow, what a treat! The atmosphere was welcoming, and the staff paid attention to every detail. I ordered their signature dish, Los Colores enchiladas, and they were rich in flavor with varied sauces for a delightful experience. Don't pass this one up—great for a casual family dinner! " (*Curated Review*)

" We went for dinner on a Saturday night, and the place was buzzing! The energy was fantastic. I ordered the enchiladas, which were delicious but I think the dish could have used just a bit more spice. Service was fast despite the crowd, and I liked the relaxed atmosphere. The margaritas are a must-try! Overall, I'd recommend it, especially if you want an authentic New Mexican experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been to many Mexican restaurants, and Orlando’s serves some of the best food I’ve ever had. I tried their combo plate, and every item was bursting with flavor! However, we did wait quite a while for our food to arrive. The staff was pleasant, and the patio area was lovely to sit in. Definitely a place I’d want to visit again! " (*Curated Review*)
