“We had a great experience at Chamayo! Nate was our bartender and server, and he was friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome from the moment we sat down. He mixed me a delicious Chamayo Cosmo that was perfectly balanced, and our food was excellent. I loved the bison burger, and my husband really enjoyed the chicken tacos.

Nate checked on us at just the right times, had great recommendations, and made the whole meal even more enjoyable. If you’re dining at Chamayo, ask for Nate—you’ll be in great hands. We’ll definitely be back!“

“I had a great experience that was facilitated by Roberto. He is an impressively talented bartender, and absolutely personable. You would be lucky to have him craft you a cocktail. I’m confident that he could please even the pickiest of drinkers. I look forward to being served by him again and seeing what he creates. Be patient if you are dining during busy hours. Quality takes time, and with Roberto you are pretty much guaranteed to receive a quality cocktail. Take this into consideration if your wait to receive a drink is longer on weekends or during dinner hour. You are paying for quality, not speed.“

Owners- apologies, I believe the previous review posted on accident before I was finished from the airport. Thanks for the comment to prompt a second look.“

“"🌟 Extraordinary Experience at Rupert’s in Durango! 🌟 Living with a rare form of celiac disease (#Only20kInUS), finding accommodating eateries is a gold mine! Today, breakfast at #RupertsInDurango was not just a meal, but a celebration of care & culinary delight! 🍽 Imagine my joy discovering a menu dotted with #GlutenFree tags! Yet, after a minuscule bite of my chosen dish, we realized there was a tiny mislabeling issue. Anxiety washed over me, but not for long... 🌈 Enter the superhero owner of Rupert's! With swift action and genuine concern, the mislabeling was corrected on all menus right there, on the spot. The unexpected bonus? Our delightful breakfast, infused with savory Bloody Marys, was graciously comped. 🎁 Not just an apology, but a demonstration of customer service excellence unfolded before our eyes, turning a minor hiccup into a memorable, heartwarming experience. #Ruperts not only amazed with their rapid & caring response but also with their efficient, friendly staff and delectable, speedy service. Each bite (post-correction 😊) was a symphony of flavors, validating Rupert's as a beacon of superb dining in Durango! Drop by for an unforgettable experience, where the food is as incredible as the people serving it! 🌟#MustVisit #DurangoDiningDelight #CustomerServiceWin"“
