This was by far the worst dinning experience thus far during our trip to Taos. 3 hour wait and bad tasting food. Heard about Taos Outback Pizza, from a skier on the lifts, but definitely not worth the time or money. When placing our order at 5:55, we were told it would take up to an hour for our food to be prepared. I added an appetizer to the order, hoping that would arrive during the hour wait. I asked 2 times about the bread around 6:30 (thinking this was the half way point for our estimated wait time) however, the bread was not served until 7:30. The bread was okay, but had a very hard crust. I might rate it 4 out of 10. While waiting for our food, 3 tables paid their drink tickets and left with out receiving their food. Once our room was cleared out and we were the only ones left, we asked 3 staff members to turn the volume up on the TV but we never did get the remote or have the TVs volume increased from mute. At 8:55 our final pizza was served (each pizza was served about 10 minutes apart). One person in our group said the pizza was so bad she sent it back and refused to pay for it. I did ordered a build your own with 2 meats and only receive one meat on my pizza. The men in our group did eat part of their pizza but had it put in a Togo box and agreed it was not as good a Pizza Hut or other chain pizza places, ultimately comparing it to hospital pizza . We all made sandwiches when we returned to the hotel. If you have 3 plus hours to wait, and don't mind spending $30 plus per pizza with half decent quality and taste, there are a few pluses to dinning here, our waitress Holly was kind and apologized several times for our experience. They also served a 10 inch gluten free crust crust which was a request from one person in our group. Others than these 2 single factors nothing good about this place. The manager was not seen and no explanation for the wait time other than there is only 1 oven...poor set up for a pizza restaurant.

My son and I had lunch here today and it was awesome! I got the shredded pizza gluten free. It was excellent. My son created his own white pizza, regular crust, and couldn't stop raving about the taste and crust. Definitely a must when in Taos.
