Our favorite Mexican place in the area. Excellent, affordable food. We've always been treated really well by the staff. It's even better if the day is nice and you can sit out on their patio. I love their tostadas or their shrimp dishes. The ceviche was pretty decent. A good place to go if you're not in a hurry. Just sit, relax, much and unwind. read more

Yes!! Came here on a late Saturday night for some drinks with my Mexican home girls.......I love the atmosphere...very welcoming and ....how do u say...ethnic. All I know is that Mexicans know how to party hahaha and there usually isn't any drama with it either. One side is filled with tables and booths, dark as night and blasting with Spanish Karaoke music. On the other side of the wall is a full bar serving all of the Mexican favorites including dos equis!! we got a bucket of dos equis....returned to the other side with the tables, sang karaoke and got drunk!! It was hella fun......and even though I don't speak a lick of Spanish besides knowing how to order my burritos and tacos I tried to sing along as well.....They also have a ton of English selections to choose by, you just gotta let the big Mexican man in the cowboy hat know wut u wanna sing......The ppl around us chowing down on bar food seemed pretty content with what the authentic cuisine...we got the chicken nachos...I gotta say hands down the best nachos I've ever had ...ever! even better than in Mexico! and everybody was super friendly. Cheers to random drunk ppl.... hahaha ^___^ oh...and there was also this drunk middle aged Mexican man that wouldn't leave me or my friends alone. He kept speaking to me in Spanish and trying to talk to us and stared at us. It was hella creepy....I guess that's how a lot of girls feel whenever guys won't leave them alone! He followed us from the bar to the other room...so I decided I was going to be just as creepy as him and wink at him to try to scare him off.....that didn't work out so well cuz he ended up sitting with us. Oh well.....great place with great staff, friendly service, great food and great drinks. Wahooo!!! :) read more

Been coming here almost once a week since Antonio took over in 2001. I've spent many days in Mexico and Casa Durango is the best of the best. Great food, friendly service, excellent beverages. What more can you ask. Yes I give it 5 stars and will continue to come back till something changes. I love the lunch menu but will not think twice about enjoying their dinners. Try the Chili Verde or the bacon wrapped shrimp and you'll know why I'm a big fan. read more

Simply OUTSTANDING!! So much for the money, large portions of authentic delicious Mexican food. We have been there many times including yesterday. We had the Arroz con Pollo and it could not have been better. The place is spotless and the staff so friendly. Do not miss this gem of a restaurant! read more

Good stuff! I used a groupon and they were more than happy to take it. I know some places have given me dirty looks for using one before. The food was delicious. The veggie burrito is truly a veggie burrito. Don't order it if you don't like broccoli. I actually do so it was quite good and giant sized. I had more than enough leftover to take to work for lunch the next day. They also have cerveza Sol so they get extra points for that. read more

We saw this place and decided to try a New Mexican restaurant close to home. We weren't too happy about the whole, you get 1 thing of chips and salsa and after that you have to pay. The food was okay, my fiancé and I shared the nachos, and there was barely any chicken on them, and they were kind of soggy. We're sad to say we were not very impressed. read more

Empty. Average food with great service. Good salsa and standard mexican dishes. No ambiance...

This place is the bomb. Really good burrito (Durango burrito) and very friendly service. Chill ambiance and they're quick.

This is my favorite place for Mexican food west of the mountains. I've been going to this place for years (even before it was Casa Durango) with friends who live in the neighborhood and absolutely love it. It's comfort food for me because it reminds me of growing up and visiting my friends for dinner and getting homemade Mexican food. In a way, it is like going home for me. I walk in and they know what I'm going to order: margarita and Durango burrito. (One of the reviewers said it's enough for 2 people, but I always eat the whole thing all by myself!) read more

Excellent choice for Mexican food! The prices are good, food is delicious, and very friendly staff. Will be back.

Well where to start... We've been coming here for a year. Everytime we come here it has been different. This place has zero consistency. Being an ex chef I can tell every recipe is different every day. The salsa apparently they think the hotter it is the better. Different every single time..Here's an idea, recipes recipes recipes. This includes the drinks.. Great 1 day, pure crap the next. Send it back it comes back worse. Unfortunately, I'm done. The restaurant has gone from good to terrible. As a neighborhood restaurant it's disappointing. Sadly, this is last time I eat there. If you doubt this review, eat today then go bk. In 1 week.. Sad!!!!!!! read more

This really is as good as it gets in the Seattle area. We had been looking for great Mexican food since we arrived here from California. The food is authentic and the service is fast. The inside needs a makeover, but I like the neighborhood charm. This is definitely a locals place. I'm so glad I wandered in. read more

We kept hearing from friends to try this place. So what the hell we eat out 7-8 times a week so twist our arms already. Food was just ok. Service was slow. We sat in the bar which looks more like a cafeteria. Probably won't go back. Read Elena's review and you the idea. read more

This is some of the worst food and worst service I have gotten anywhere. Over priced for bad quality food extremely disappointed

Great enchiladas, margaritas, salsa & chips, portions, all along with exceptional service!!

Nom! Happy hour 3-6pm. This is some of the best Mexican food I've had. The food was good (taquitos!), chips and salsa yummy and they had a lot of regulars it seemed.Hooray for my Entertainment book! We'll be back. read more

This has been our "go to" Mexican restaurant in Renton for over 15-20 years at least. Always a La Fuente family but now we have moved to the "CASA".. read more

Should be a 3 1/2 star. The Mexican food here is about as good as it gets in the Seattle area. They actually make the mole from scratch. The waiter was very friendly. He came over after I was done eating and chatted for awhile. Don't know why another review says they're not friendly. Here's what I had: Mole Enchilada ($9). It would have been perfect if they gave three enchiladas. The meal only came with two enchiladas, beans, and rice. The mole was very good. It would have been better if they smothered the enchiladas with it. Chicken Fajita ($12). It was good. Nothing to wow about. The portions were o.k. The meal also came with chips and salsa. The chips were store bought. But the salsa was very good. You can actually taste the garlic. Overall, they had a large selection of items on their menu. I had better Mexican food in places like California and Texas. But that's really not a fair comparison. For the Seattle area, it's really good. I'll come back. read more

They have great authentic Mexican food! The staff was very nice and the food was good. Their salsa is good, but it is not my favorite. The ambiance fits the restaurant. It is a great restaurant for families, but not somewhere I would go with the girls on a Saturday night. The margaritas are very good for cheap prices! read more

Looks a little sketchy from the outside and the interior isn't the greatest but once you sit down and start eating, you'll realize that your "fears" are unwarranted. The prices are reasonable and the food is quite tasty, with large portions as well. read more

Pretty Authentic Mexican Food, owned and operated by Mexicans (not asians like some who try to fool you). Food is good! Not the best I've ever had, but for the price truly good mexican for the area and worth coming back for. Good eats, casual, and quick, read more

Decent little restaurant in the shopping complex off of Union Ave and Sunset in the Renton Highlands. Bar attached to sitting area. Food was no more than expected and good enough to come back again. read more

Came her for lunch service was great food was hot fresh and so yummy I think this is my new favorite Mexican restaurant great value great servings and salsa was a little spicy but still good read more

My favorite local restaurant when I want authentic Mexican food and can't make it to Mexico! Antonio and his staff are always friendly and welcoming and I love the addition of the cantina and patio. Weekend pozole and menudo, whole fried fish, carne asada and much more. I noticed one reviewer saying it wasn't busy at dinner time. Great food for reasonable prices. Definitely a gem! read more

Having recently moved to the area from Southern California my husband and I were concerned we would not find a good Mexican restaurant. I read the reviews on Yelp and we have Casa Durango a try this evening. The guacamole was excellent. Margarita was not from a mix. Carne asada was tender and flavorful. Taquitos freshly made. We will be back again and again. read more

Best sit down Mexican Restaurant in Renton Highlands. Prices are comparable to other similar restaurants. Menu has some unique options. Try the Arroz Con Pollo - its hella good! read more

Nice family vibe with authentic Mexican food. Their spicy salsa does not disappoint. I had the enchilada and taco combo, which was very good, but next time I'll go for two enchiladas instead. Hubby had the mole enchiladas, which were solid. We both had happy plates. read more

Amazing authentic Mexican food! Delicious burritos and good portion size. The owner is always working with his staff and and is extremely friendly and up beat and ive been coming back for I'd say almost 7 years. Food has always met my standards and I haven't had a burrito that tasted better at another Mexican restaurant in the area. read more

Great little low-key Tex-Mex Mexican restaurant. Enchiladas suiza and chile relleno were excellent! Relaxed yet attentive service made the experience very enjoyable! read more

Love! New and improved. I eat vegan and they have a new menu that includes vegan and vegetarian options. I tried the vegan tacos and cactus salad. I recommend both. I thought the pablano sauce was a bit bland until I put it on the tacos. Excellent. The soft tacos, 3 for $6! Who does that? Oh and try the toasted lemonade. We've always enjoyed eating at this gem but will do so even more so now. read more

People of Renton, put Casa Durango on your "must" list. I have been visiting this joint for over 2 years and have NEVER had a bad experience. The food truly is authentic, the service is always friendly, and I have never had to wait for a table. I am always amazed when I see La Fuente is packed and this place is half empty. This place is alway great for Lunch, most of the prices are $5.95 and lunch is served seven days a week. Give this place a try and you will not be dissappointed. read more

Best salsa I have tasted since living in Texas. Antonio runs a great business here with platos sabrosos, tasty margaritas, and huge portions. A lot of Yelp-era complain a out the service...gosh, just ask them for something. They are super helpful, call you "amigo," and the restaurant is family run. Do yourself a favor and check it out. GREAT FOOD. read more

The people working here seem to enjoy their jobs very friendly staff I had a long conversation with a few of them about life while waiting for my food haha it's a little expensive so I don't come here too often but the food is good! read more

Came here for my birthday lunch yesterday, the ladies working were super friendly and the service was fast and attentive. I've been here a couple other times but for some reason I always forget that this restaurant is here. I don't know why because I have always had a good experience here. The food is good, the portion size is nice and good, the horchata is good, the employees are good. I like this place a lot! :) read more

I have ordered and eaten here about 5 times. And the ONE time we try and show this place off to friends from out of town pretty much everything went wrong. Our waitress was really really awkward and kind of didn't know how to communicate with her customers. We ordered two tall beers and they were completely flat so much so that we had to return them. Then we get our food and my friends tacos have a giant hair in them. I asked for my tacos to come with only one tortilla and they all had two of them. They stick most of the time so no I cant just take one out. Seems like they need more attention to detail and maybe some training for their staff. I will definitely hesitate coming back. read more

Saw this place on my way home from the airport... Yum yum yum!! Best authentic Mexican food since I moved to Washington from California ...the tacos are AWESOME!!! And so many varieties ...staff is super friendly... The family and I will definitely put this place into our rotation... I seriously can't stop thinking about how good the tacos were and neither can my husband ... Recommend the mahi, pollo asada, carnitas and al pastor... Can't wait to try more dishes ' read more

I love Casa Durango, and I go there often. The food is delicious and they are always willing to customize my order (for example, substitute lettuce leaves for tortillas). My favorite dishes are the Camarones al Mojo de ajo, carnitas tacos, fish tacos, enchiladas, tortilla soup, and anything with their homemade enchilada sauce. Oh my word is that sauce delicious! read more

Service was quick..had the Chili Relleno and it was excellent! Kind of a dive place but good food and drinks.

Great place for lunch! If you are in Renton grab lunch. Quick and good food at a great price!

The food is usually good but it matters who the cook is. The salsa also varies sometimes it's warm but other times it's not that great. The service is good. read more
