Plenty of parking and decent size place. Huge new menus with pictures of all meals and choices Prices are good, servings are good size. Went with a group of 6 and everyone liked their food and drinks. I ordered the tacos de Pastor, tasted great and came with rice and refried beans. The only odd things are Had to request chips and salsa and the salsa appeared and tasted like Pace picante sauce you buy in the jar from the store and they did not have charro beans. I asked to sub charro beans for refried but they only have black beans or refried...odd for a Mexican restaurant but I am from Texas so charro beans could be a Texas thing..also in Texas most Mexican places make their own salsa and we judge many by their chips and salsa. Over all good food at good prices. We visit again next time I'm visiting my daughter.

Los Tres always serves the food very hot and right away. Their shrimp fajitas with corn tortillas are exceptional. Everything was delicious!!!

Service good. Food was ok. Drink prices were very expensive $4 for just a soft drink, yikes!

Great Mexican food, good size portions, friendly service, and reasonable prices. They even will make fresh guacamole at your table. Outdoor seating available when the weather permits.

Usually pretty stellar service and food. Had. A couple issues with my recent order as the young man taking my order didn't bother writing down anything and gave me the wrong food twice. Hope it's better next time.

Came here with my wife and kids to meet some friends with their child as well. Very kid friendly, thankfully! Food was good, only bad part was I wasn't super hungry when I got there so I wish I had more. Casual and tasty, two things I like, definitely worth the trip to the Durham area.
I would love to give this more stars, but their food was a disappointment. Especially the chile rellano. We expected the typical rellano, with cheese and chile covered with an egg based coating. What we got was a large pan seared chile stuffed with hamburger. Being that I am a vegetarian, that didnt work for me, but our server didnt understand what we were saying, so we were stuck with it. Our waiter was nice, but it was very difficult to order and he never brought us the extra chese and hot sauce we requested. Another server finally helped us.My husband's chimichanga was actually just a burrito in a cream sauce. Not deep fried.The pina colada was also disappointing. It was lime green and tasted nothing like one. More like a Circle K slushie.The flan was incredible, however.

Overall, it's a good tex-mex restaurant. Middle of the road prices. We visit here at least once a month, and it's in our "circle" of Mexican/Tex-mex/elsalvadorian restaurants that we dine at. Service is usually good, sometimes below par. On our most recent visit, we had the table side guacamole for 10.95, and it was just ok.. seemed like it was missing lime and possibly other ingredients compared to other table side guacamole in the area. Will try it again sometime just to test consistency.Parking: Sometimes, it is difficult to park in front of the restaurant, and then you have to hunt and wait.

Food was ok, service was a little spacey. Kinda weird that all their dishes come with rice or beans and not both.

If you're looking for Mexican dishes in the Durham area, you have to try this restaurant. Staff is authentic, polite, and attentive. There are many choices. And the food is served quickly, while still hot.We were very pleased about the food and the portion sizes.Whether a small or large group, you'd be hard pressed to find better, authentic Mexican cuisine than this.
