“Love this place! I’m a creature of habit, and Frieda’s has earned my loyalty. The grilled chicken asada is my go-to, and their coin margarita is outstanding. It’s my favorite little ritual here in Durango — great food, great vibes. Highly recommend!“

“Just had lunch at James Ranch a HUGE shout out to Grant!! Being a restaurant owner we're always "watching " employees. Great hire on him very well mannered ( yes ma'am and yes sir) I know personally good employees are hard to find and he's a good one!! The food was outstanding!! Highly recommend this place. We even visited the store and purchased apples, plums & peaches ❤️“

“Edited, I've been coming to Carvers for years as a northern NM native. I've been living in the Midwest for 10 years and was recently visiting with family. I was happy to see that the all around quality has been maintained. Carvers is a great place to hangout, good food, good service, and comfortable environment at a reasonable price. Highly recommend.
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.“

“All around amazing. Management, food, service and ambiance. Thank you for a great evening.“

“"🌟 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!

“Recommend the Blackened Ribeye. Great food and service.“

“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!“

Dietary restrictions: All gluten-free!“

“Great burgers and vegan options. Probably the best black bean patty I’ve had!“

“This place knows how to cook breakfast and hands down knows how to use green chili. I highly recommend their omelettes, pancakes and most of all the green chili grits. Huge portions and super friendly staff. It’s a Durango gem!“

“Best cafe in Durango! Everything is made fresh everyday, their drinks are amazing, and incredible owners and atmosphere. Their sandwiches and quiches are to die for. Recommend to all of my family and friends!“

“The soft tacos and quesadillas are absolutely fantastic, and the margaritas are top-notch! They use a homemade lime mix, not an overly sweet premade one, which makes all the difference. The staff is incredibly friendly and accommodating. I’m so glad we discovered this place—it’s definitely going to be a regular spot for us!“

“Great burgers and vegan options. Probably the best black bean patty I’ve had!“

“Good music, fun atmosphere, great cocktails and a solid menu with reasonable variety“

“If you’re looking for real, authentic Mexican food, stop wasting your time on Tex-Mex and Americanized Mexican restaurants and head straight here. This is the real deal.

The crispy beef tacos were absolutely to die for—perfectly crisp, packed with incredible flavor, and easily some of the best I’ve ever had. Every bite tasted fresh and authentic.

The service was spectacular, the food was outstanding, and the atmosphere made the whole experience even better. Everything about this place feels genuine, from the recipes to the warm hospitality.

If authentic Mexican cuisine is what you’re after, don’t settle for anything less. Skip the imitations and run to this place. You won’t regret it!“

“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.“

“Yummy yummy! I’m never disappointed! This is my go to place!“

“I love the friendly vibe and the environmentally conscious businesses at the Smiley Building. It's just plain fun to go to work there!“

“Pet Peeve: when people speak in superlatives (especially as a former English teacher). That being said… my wife and I just shared the Beersalmic Chicken Melt; and it was the BEST sandwich I’ve ever had in my entire life. It left me speechless… which is one hell of an accomplishment! The Copper Cabra (Moscow Mule) was also fantastic. Last, but certainly not least… the service was top notch!! 10/10!! You won’t regret it!!!“

“I was visiting from Albuquerque and came across your bakery. had a couple croissants, amazing! I brought a loaf of four corners bread home, I'm hooked for life!!!“

“🍕🙂👍 Wesley & the entire staff are awesome!“

“Yummy yummy! I’m never disappointed! This is my go to place!“

“Everything is delicious, but the Kathmandu Sekuwa is out of this world. I've been working my way through the menu to find what dish is responsible for that irresponsible aroma wafting into the streets. It's the Kathmandu Sekuwa, and it tastes as good as it smells. Excellent food, wonderful service and atmosphere. Highly recommend.“

“the staff was great, the pizza was awesome and also, had some much needed beer.“

Cheers fellow Pizza lovers!“

“Yummy food.great Service. Decent price. Good beer!“

“The Best margaritas in town! Our server Irene and owner Tony were so informative and hospitable! Great service! We will definitely return! At first we weren’t sure because of the location in the mall but it’s a great little restaurant 😍 Don’t hesitate to try it!“

“Just tried for the first time this week, and I'm literally about to put in my third order. The staff is great! But the food is freaking phenomenal! The peanut sauce is great the spicy and mild . The pad thai is the best I've had in the area by far! I already love this place. I'm headed back now.

Update: 3 weeks later . As of today I've been there personally 9 times and had friends pick food up three times. This is my favorite place in town and I've tried something different each time and every freaking thing is delicious! I just had th massaman curry and I think I am in love“

“The atmosphere was so awesome and our waitress was great . The food on the other hand was WAY overpriced for what you're getting. Our steaks were tender but tasteless and were mostly grisle and the vegetables were inedible imo. probably won't return .“
