I am picky when it comes to authentic Mexican food but this place has pretty good authentic food. They have yummy salsas and they have refillable coffee.

Gorditas El Durango was great! The owner Manny was super nice and helpful. He talked to me about how the meat choices they have are super traditional to where they are from in mexico. I had some tacos (Chile relleno, deshebrada, and asada de puerco) which were all super good. I loved them not only because they were good but because they were also different from your average taqueria. I didn't try a gordita but I'll definitely be going back because it looked super good as well!

Ordered a quesadilla and it was more cheese and tortilla than it was STEAK!!! it was dry not to mention they don’t have guacamole or avocado. I had to eat my quesadilla upside down just because it was barely anything in it.
Get a gordita - you will not regret it! Great variety of options for meat - we will be back to try more!

Food was absolutely delicious! Although I didn’t speak Spanish and the server didn’t speak English, the server did really well at trying to get the order correct! Very kind guy and food was 10/10

Really enjoyed the gorditas! The meat was very flavorful. Lots of options to choose from and they serve more than gorditas, which are essentially a stuffed taco (for the un-initiated). The orange sauce provided with the gorditas is very spicy, but a delicious flavorful bomb. Really complimented the gordita and ingredients inside very well! Great atmosphere in the restaurant too. Everything tasted great, good service, and no complaints. Hope to return regularly. Thank you!
Vegetarian options: Some vegetarian options from what I remember
Dietary restrictions: Lots of menu options
Parking: Street parking only - maybe 20-30 spots nearby but many other businesses and their customers competing for those spots. Might have to walk a short distance, but not bad.
Kid-friendliness: Several kinds inside eating the food, no kid specific menu.

No mas!!!
We have ordered twice in 1 week with the same results. Impossible to reach anyone by phone to order; if they do answer they hang up on you if you don't speak Spanish. This forces you to go through the web site ChowNow. Somehow despite the fact that it is a computerized order the restaurant can't get the order right. Some items are completely missing, other items are substituted without notice. I returned to the restaurant to get a refund for an item that was missing from our order and was told that they couldn't help me since the order was through ChowNow, even though all of the errors were on the part of the restaurant. The restaurant will not refund your money or provide a substitute item. Of course that is assuming you have time to go back after you figure out that they messed up your order. The manager did not even apologize for their multiple errors. Maybe good for eating in but not for take out......

I ordered gordita with roast pork but they gave me roast beef, that was not what I ordered and apart from the gordita, it had almost no meat, only a little bad service.

Food was alright I expected the gorditas to have some kind of vegetables the tortilla is kind of dry
Food is awesome!!! Everything is so good. I even took a friend there and she loved it. I will definitely be going back. The best Mexican restaurant. If anyone is reading this go try it out if you like 100% real Mexican food. This place is great!!!! ?

Very good picadillo Verde. Proper gordita. Take the warning about salsa being hot seriously.
