Lambert's of Taos

Our emphasis at Lambert's has always been on quality and value. Our sauces are made from scratch. Some of them, such as the lamb demi-glace, take days to finish. The vegetables are fresh and local when available. When asked to describe us, the word most often used by our loyal local clientele is 'consistent'.

LODGING -

HOTELS/MOTELS/B&B'S:

 

Following are TIGA's preffered fine lodging. We hope you will consider these fine establishments when booking your next visit to Taos.

 

 

CASITA 203

At 203 Fine Art you will find a charming casita adjacent the gallery. This romantic space is available for nightly and weekly rental. It has its own private entrance through a courtyard onto Ledoux Street, which is located the heart of the Taos Historic District. Unlike many nightly rentals that claim to be walking distance to the plaza and downtown area, our casita is uniquely situated in the heart of town, and it is just a short stroll from all the attractions of the town center, but still in a quite residential area.
