Michael's Kitchen Restaurant & Bakery

This restaurant is excellent! Went there twice recently for breakfast and it was delicious. Went had huevos rancheros, breakfast burritos, breakfast enchiladas and a sweet roll. All were excellent as well as both their red and green chili sauce. Great service and coffee both days.

We visited Taos, so we had to have breakfast at Michael's. Michael's makes the best breakfast burritos. I have yet to have one anywhere that compares.The staff is great--helpful and friendly. And the rustic ambiance has not changed. I just wish they'd open a branch in Los Angeles.

Everything from the food, the service and the atmosphere was beyond excellent! Our server, Michael, was a rock star. So attentive, friendly and a hard worker! He was constantly refilling drinks and checking in on all his tables. We got here right before the breakfast rush so I'd recommend showing up before 10am. We did not wait long to be seated and were immediately asked for our drink orders. A few min later there was a line out the door, a testament to their great food! The service was impeccable. All the servers there were constantly bussing, taking orders, checking on their customers and even the people in line didn't seem to wait long to be seated. The food was so tasty! I got the huevos rancheros and hashbrowns, the flavor was to die for! Such an awesome diner and I see why it's so popular. Wie will definitely be back next time I return to NM for a visit!

Michael's Kitchen is a Taos staple. Whenever we have guests in town we make sure we get a least one breakfast at Micheal's. The line is worth the wait! I've sampled quite a bit of their menu & everything has been great. My personal favorites include the Maneater breakfast sandwich & the hash-browns with red chile (sometimes I add fried eggs)

Wow, this place gets busy around 10am! So glad we came in at 9. lol! Hubby and I ate here twice during our stay in Taos, and both times it was enjoyable. The first day, our service was stellar with a wonderful busser refilling our drinks often. Hubby loved the banana nut pancakes, while my Viva la French Toast was only okay. The next day, I devoured my cheese blintzes subbed with blueberry while hubs said the breakfast burrito was good but not stellar. I also had a side of hash browns with vegetarian green chile, and it was amazing! The red chile is cooked with meat and had kind of a Hormel flavor to it, so not my fave, but hubs enjoyed it. We took home a few pastries, and the texture of all was perfection! The giant sweet roll was crazy! I can't quite identify what they use instead of cinnamon, but it's nice and different. The more typical cinnamon roll was good, though I didn't care for the white icing. The apple fritter was still soft the next day and had a lovely flavor and texture. Overall, I can see why this place is a Taos staple!

Love love love this restaurant. Food is always amazing and the baked goods are heavenly. We seem to always get the Poor Boy Benedict. Soooo good and filling. Then desert of a fritter. Yes dessert after breakfast lol. Whenever we treat friends, it's always to the apple fritters here. We can't go wrong, unless you don't call in your order lol. They go very quickly. Highly recommend this as a stop if passing through Taos. You won't regret it!!

Michael's has been in town for 50 years. It never disappoints. My companions and I decided to try to get in on a Saturday morning and we had luck. The line was short and the service was quick. Even when the line is long, it is worth the wait.When you get to the restaurant, there is typically a line in the covered entrance, but you can bypass the line and go right to the bakery case. The restaurant is known for its sourdough bread, empanadas, and cream puffs. Since we were having breakfast, we looked at the bakery case to be tempted by the sweets.My companions and I were immediately served water and the waitress, it was very friendly, took our order. I ordered the rellenada Christmas style, and my companions both ordered the huevos rancheros One Christmas with a side of tomatoes, the other red chili with hashbrowns. I ordered an apple fritter appetizer because it is one of my favorites. The apple fritter was delicious, big chunks of apple not overly cooked so a little bit dough with a nice sugar glaze.The breakfast items hit the table shortly there after and were at feast for the eyes as well as the tastebuds. The pictures do not do the meal justice as the flavor of the green and red chili on my Rellenada with the softly scrambled eggs was absolutely delicious. My companions advised that the huevos rancheros was equally delicious and very filling. The green chili was nicely, hot and flavorful.Be lying to get in Michael's is justified, but the service is quick and friendly. Once you are complete with your meal, you pay at the cashier on your way out. They do a brisk business and the line moves quickly so do not be dissuaded. Any restaurant that has been around for 50 years knows what they're doing. Michael's never disappoints.

Such a cute little diner, The staff was nice and my food came out pretty quickly. I got the two eggs with pancakes and sliced tomatoes, it was delicious.

Very impressed with the staff. Efficient, friendly and eager to please the patron. Food servings were generous and flavorful. Food was served quickly considering the place was filled to capacity and as we left there was a long line waiting to be seated. Will return for sure.

Delicious, welcoming and local breakfast spot! Lots of New Mexico style menu items, if you love green or red chile this is the place for you! I had the smothered hash browns Christmas style and my friend had the breakfast enchiladas. We also shared a few bites of their GIGANTIC cinnamon roll! Good food, nice staff and low key vibe.
