Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews

Saltos offers a delightful dining experience with "very good food" and a "laid back" atmosphere, especially in the garden. Guests praise the "fantastic drinks" and "inventive tapas." While the new restaurant still faces some "growing pains," the "best service in Taos" and stunning outdoor setting make it a promising choice.

Menu on website did not come close to reality. Only 2 entrees offered Staff was argumentative and rude music did not start till 9:30 pm website indicated something like starting at 4 pm Took about 1.5 hours to get served Speciality drinks looked like something you would see at a fraternity party Stake was serviced raw and had to be sent back.

Had the steak frites with chimichurri- was prepared perfectly, tender and flavorful. Very generous serving of the frites- which is good because it's why we all get the steak frites, after all! Jimmy was playing so a good time was had by all!

2nd time I have eaten at Saltos. I ordered the wedge salad, it was not as good as the previous time..... I ordered the tuna BLT - and it was a gloppy mess, with so much aioli I couldn't taste the actual ingredients in the sandwich. I was charged $16.00 for a martini. Never again.

My second time visiting this establishment. I won't hurry back. The food selection was sparse and pretty expensive for what you got. I got the ahi tuna sandwich which was not to my liking as the tuna was tasteless. The service, however was great and they have done a good job on the ambience.

There was a disconnect between the menu advertised on the Salto’s website and the ‘limited’ food selection at the restaurant. A bit disappointing (and misleading). Food was Ok.

We arrived at 6:25 for our reservation. We were seated fairly quickly, but waited 10 minutes for a server. We waited a full hour before receiving our meal orders. The restaurant was busy on the patio and only had 2 servers ... not enough staff. We had the dates, empanadas, shrimp taco and smash burgers. The food was good, not great. Love the patio and will try again when they have been up and running a bit longer.
