Gutiz

For a Taos breakfast or brunch where the decision is about a casual daytime meal, Gutiz is a direct option. The basics are simple: it is a Latin–French fusion breakfast and brunch café in Taos, open Tuesday through Sunday from 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM and closed Monday, with a casual dress code and an approximate price of $15 per person.

The main reason to go is the Latin–French format. The order can lean into that range: French Toast, Pollo Borachon, also listed as Drunken Chicken, Parisian Crepe, The Creole, Goat Cheese Quesadilla, Croque Monsieur are the signature dishes.

Go for the menu range and casual daytime format

Gutiz is best understood as a casual breakfast and brunch café in Taos. That makes it a practical fit for a relaxed daytime meal where the plan calls for an approachable price and a menu with both Latin and French influences.

The value is in the daytime focus and the breadth of the signature dishes. If the occasion needs a different kind of dining plan, compare other dining in Taos through Pearl’s Taos restaurants guide instead.

What to order on a second visit

Anyone who already tried the French Toast can move toward another signature. Pollo Borachon, or Drunken Chicken, is one option; the Parisian Crepe and Croque Monsieur point to the French side of the café’s Latin–French identity.

The strongest play is to order across the signatures rather than treating Gutiz like a one-dish stop. French Toast, The Creole, Goat Cheese Quesadilla, Parisian Crepe, Pollo Borachon, Croque Monsieur give the table a useful mix of choices without needing to invent a more elaborate format.

The smarter move is daytime

Because Gutiz runs Tuesday through Sunday from 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM and is closed Monday, the smart plan is simple: treat it as a daytime breakfast or brunch stop. Casual dress is appropriate, the $15-per-person price point keeps the meal low-pressure.

The confirmed recognition is also worth noting: Gutiz is listed as a Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives Featured Restaurant in 2026. Still, the decision should stay grounded: go when you want a flavorful, approachable daytime meal in Taos with Latin–French brunch range. Do not plan it as a dinner stop.
