The Gorge Bar And Grill Restaurant

Prices have skyrocketed, menu has shrunk, and it took forever to get our food. Used to be a great Taos local restaurant, but they're gearing toward the tourist crowd now

I got the chicken sandwich on the lunch menu. Way too expensive for what it is and portion sizing. The aioli is absolutely awful and totally ruins the sandwich, the grilled apple is so dumb and detracts from the taste and texture of the sandwich, but the chicken and bun was stellar. The fries were really good. Pickle was pretty good. Our server was awesome. The music taste and atmosphere screams pretentious tourist restaurant. Prices definitely reflect that. Bathroom was clean but a little cramped for my taste. Room for improvement.

We were looking for dinner before a concert at Kit Carson Park. Found the Gorge with ok reviews. Most negative mentions were of service. We took the chance. Unfortunately, the reviews were right. Service was slow. Took 3-4 minutes before the host even acknowledged us standing at the host stand. Everything else was slow through the meal. Additionally, the food is very mediocre. The kids pizza is frozen and pre made. Chips are out of a bag. The pineapple on the tacos was from a can. They could do a lot to put a bit of extra effort into their food (like prepping fresh pineapple). In a pinch, it’ll get you by, but find a different place.
