Delicious food. Not pictured is the appetizer we had of acorn squash fondue- it was to die for! Service was great. Our server was so polite- and knowledgeable about their dishes. The mulled wine was so good! I highly recommend this place if your in Durango! read more

Bless our server because I asked him 3 times to come back to take our order. I was so indecisive because I wanted sweet brunch food, but they only had an orange marmalade and lemon french toast, which is a little too much citrus. Then I wanted to order the roasted flatbread sandwich, but didn't realize it was a pita sandwich (I know, duh). Overall the taste was good, but I thought the bacon was an odd addition because it seemed like a BLT clashing with a southwest salad. The chicken was not cut into neat pieces but rather just stuffed in the sandwich as a large thick chunk, which made it difficult to eat. Definitely order the potato wedges as a side though they can be a little salty. The really smart move is to order the Chimayo sauce on the side, so you can dip the potatoes in it. My dad ordered the chicken, apple, and quinoa salad. In all honesty, it looked gross like lettuce out of a bag and just a bit on quinoa thrown in there to say there's quinoa in there. So overpriced for what you'd get ordering this. Same slab of chicken thrown on here as well. read more

Food is over priced. I had the wahoo tacos. They were Pretty good but over cooked. The beans and rice were very bland and coming from NM we like our beans and rice done right. My wife had the mushrooms pizza which was very good. That's why they get a 3 star. I think I worked probably try this restaurant again because they do have an impressive menu but who knows. read more

Delicious! Didn't know what to expect but it's Mexican style infused with Italian... or vice versa. The dish I ordered the summer linguini came with a mixture of different vegetables and capers. I was in bliss. My companions ordered fish tacos and salmon which was also very colorful and tasty. Although the restaurant seemed a tad warm, we enjoyed our dinner.... but it could have been from spicy hot sauces. Our dinner concluded with a yummy crème brûlée. read more

Very good but huge portions. The remainder of the dish that I was unable to finish ( which was quite a lot) I took home with me. Overall great food, great service, and great atmosphere! read more

Their truffle pasta is hands-down one of the most delicious meals I have ever tasted. My husband and I have been using it as a standard of excellence we hold our other pasta dishes to now. Granted, there are a lot of other decadent and enticing items here: the brick oven bread and chipotle honey butter, or perhaps the chocolate desserts as an example. But that truffle pasta. So good. I could go on and on and on, although the menu itself doesn't lie. Every thing advertised will be as amazing as it sounds. I highly recommend Chimayo's to anyone and everyone in the area looking for a nice dinner that is bound to impress. read more

This one star is for the woman owner only. The food and service was not good. The woman owner she's maybe 45-50ish. Complained because I had a service dog. She said the dog was being disruptive and acting like a pet rather than a service animal. Seriously a very rude woman. I know people like this and they treat people bad so I can't imagine how she treats employees. If you work there don't let someone treat you bad. No job is worth staying silent. That's how these types of people keep perpetuating this narcissism. read more

First time to Durango, and will never come back without eating here again!!! Fabulous fabulous food with wonderful service in a beautiful place. Don't come to Durango without dining here!!! read more

Best meal I've had in a long time. The service was on point and David, our waiter was on it! The queso fundido was amazing! The fish tacos have more fish than I've ever seen put into a taco. The beef medallions in Chimichurri sauce were cooked to perfection. The Creme Brûlée is exactly how it should be great consistency and amazing flavor! Best place to eat in Durango! read more

This restaurant is a real gem in Durango. While you may have to sit at the bar if you don't have a reservation, it is worth it. The service and food quality were incredible. The restaurant has excellent vibes. read more

Ambiance is great. The mushroom pizza is epicurean delight. Delicious but very expensive. This pizza used to be $17 now $25. Yes realize prizes have soared but DOUBLEDThe other issue was the price of a cup of coffee......$10with no option other than pressed. That charge ruined the dining experience read more

We were in Durango this week with friends and decided on Chimayo to celebrate my husband's birthday. We got there when it opened at 5pm and asked for one of the round booths. The hostess was a little frazzled and said she couldn't seat us there because of all the reservations. Luckily, a server came up and told her to go ahead and seat us at the last round booth and they could figure out the rest later. The server's name was Sydney, and she actually took care of waiting on us. She was awesome!! Our friends ordered wine, a Margarita and a pizza to share. My husband ordered the Gourmet Mac and Cheese with bacon. I had a summer special, the Palisade Peach Salad with chicken. Every one of us loved out dinners. The only reason I didn't give a 5 star rating was the portion of the salad. It was on an 8" plate and looked more like a side salad. It was $15 and the added chicken was $6!! Certainly not Worth a $21. But other than that, it was terrific. The restaurant interior is really gorgeous and very different. Even with an open kitchen it wasn't loud. The food and service were great. It's just a little pricey. read more

After getting waitlisted at another restaurant we stopped by Chimayo and the menu did not disappoint! The mixologists were very knowledgeable of all cocktails and the best part was the menu. We had the kafta (Mediterranean style dish) and the margherita pizza. As a food critic looking for the best marg pizzas I have to give praise to Chimayo. The pizza dough was delicious, perfectly baked and the mozzarella was evenly melted. Hands down, one of the best margherita pizzas I've had. read more

As a local, I've eaten here many times over the years and can say that it is always delicious! Service is always fast and friendly and there are so many tummy options on the menu. Our favorites are the cedar planked salmon and the warm vegetable salad, but it's hard to go wrong with anything. And great wine and cocktail list! read more

Oh baby, what a great find! Go sit at the kitchen counter and watch the magic happen. Such an efficient crew turning out one delicious dish after the next. And amazingly calm in doing so! Having been a cook in restaurant kitchens I know how crazy they can be. Not here. Pepito encrusted Chile relleno was scrumptious. Spouse had Skuna salmon perfectly cooked and equally delicious but totally different. Pear tart for dessert was good but not as over the top as everything else. And everything that came out of the kitchen looked amazing. Well, except for the pizza. That looked skippable. A lovely meal, no extra charge for the entertainment. read more

Definitely enjoyed our dining experience at Chimayo. The menu has something for just about everyone. We enjoyed the Elote (fresh corn with the requisite crema, cheese and lime), a margarita pizza with Hatch chiles, and a Chimayo salad with salmon. The salmon was cooked perfectly. I wasn't a huge fan of the cornbread crumbles, thought they could have been baked a bit longer to give more bite. Our server was very professional and helpful. Would definitely go back when in the area. read more

5 stars all the way! What a gem! We came here during the season of covid and couldn't be more happier with the service and the food! Glen, our wonderful server did such an amazing job! He explained the menu so well, wonderful verbiage, excellent service and had such a great energy. The owner even came to our table and personally assisted me with the wine, she recommended a wonderful choice, just what I was looking for! We ordered the corn for an app which was amazing! Marg pizza & sausage pizza- which was phenomenal, we also ordered the steak tacos and the beef medallions when were cooked to perfection. This restaurant is top notch from the service, to the owner, and then of course to chef just wonderful! Specially with the regulations going on right now they hit every nail on the head. What a treat! We will definitely be back! Thank you so much for your service! Keep up the amazing work! read more

Chumayo Stone Fired Kitchen is amazing. We were greeted by the owner and chef's mother who is ever so charming and gracious. This is not your normal 'mom n pop' place. This is a creative fine dining experience. The wait staff (Ashley) was warm friendly and helpful in explaining the menu options. The food was beyond good. We've been gone from home 2 1/2 weeks and this meal was the perfect way to top off the trip. The Chile Poblano was to die for and the French Onion Soup perfect. read more

Of all the places to eat in Durango, this is one of them. The server was great, the food was average. Small irritations included a plate that spins when you try to cut in it and a both backing that felt like a kid kicking the back of an airline seat. The food was average and gives the impression that they are trying to hard. read more

Chimayo is a solid dining option while in Durango. I had the steak which was amazing.

We have eaten here a few times and it is always very satisfying. I love the chimayo house salad! the "small plates" fish tacos. Nothing small about it, flavor or size. You get 2 fish tacos, rice and beans, very filling. They have fresh baked focaccia bread, cornbread, guacamole and bacon brussel sprouts, yum. They also have pizza and other main dishes that sound wonderful. Ther menu has a Mexican fusion with many other interesting twist. I will be back to try more. read more

The French onion soup gets an A+, it was a cold overcast day, and the onion soup was delightful! My husband enjoyed the southwest chicken soup as well. We split a sandwich, and that was plenty of food. I thought the steak sandwich lacked flavor, but everything was cooked well. It needed some salt or a marinade or something. My sangria was the best sangria I have ever had! The restaurant decor is really nice, and there are two big fire ovens in the back. I think it is worth a stop for lunch. read more

Had a lovely dinner here tonight on a visit to Durango. We made a reservation as it was Friday night and that was smart. When we arrived, we were seated promptly and our server came by shortly. We had perused the menu ahead of time so we knew what we wanted to order. We started with the elote..corn and cheese appetizer. Very fresh and filling. Other apps included a corn bread and a queso..both sounded yummy. We each had the chili relleno. It came with a tasty slaw on the side and was served with a small bit of rice and beans. It had an amazingly crispy crust and a sauce that had a little heat but not too bad. This one is stuffed where veggies...mainly corn...and cheese. We both though that it could have used more cheese but we really enjoyed it. The atmosphere is nice. I thought it was pricey for what is is...dinner for two with one drink each and no dessert was over $100. Still, we did enjoy the meal. And our server was perfect....she checked on us but was unobtrusive..seemed to show up when we needed her but otherwise did not bother us. A lovely evening. read more

Oh my gosh this place is AMAZING My mom and I shared the seasonal peach salad, the guacamole and the elote special and all three were absolutely incredible. Delicious flavors, beautifully presented and just so yummy we couldn't get enough. Our server R.J. was the best. Such a friendly guy, provided excellent service (5 stars to him as well!) very relatable and gave a great suggestion to try the peach pie - which we did - and which was absolutely delicious. The perfect sharing size for 2 after a meal, and not heavy at all but so light, fresh and tasty! Thank you Chimayo and R.J. for an excellent dinner and experience!! read more

I really wish I could recommend this place because past visits have been great ( eclectic menu, tasty food in a very nicely decor and a hip vibe) but twice now I have faced lights off and a locked door in spite of a website that clearly states a closing time of 9 :00. Last evening, arriving @ 8:17 I saw many people seated at the bar and diners obviously eating. And once again the lights were on and the door was locked!!We are a tourist town, it is ski season and a nice crowd were walking along the sidewalks. But once again I faced a locked door. I had several guests in tow and they were eager to dine here but appalled at such a poor experience. I totally get that if the business has slowed for the evening the kitchen workers are sent home. If indeed this is common the least a restaurant could do would be to post kitchen hours fortunately there were several other great restaurants within walking distance and we eventually did enjoy a fine meal. read more

First about David our server, WOW knowledgeable and super friendly! And then there is the Coffee, fresh coffee press. O MY it was so good on the 29* cool night. I had the flat iron stake cooked Medium and it came to me like it should have, Medium. She had the Samon chowder and lived it. They closed at 9 and we stayed till 930 but we were welcomed to stay. Kids had mac n cheese was a little spicy and the Margareta pizzathey loved it. For dessert orange blossom cheese cake and lava chocolate cake (see pics) mmmm. Come in sit and enjoy your self. read more

We were traveling back home through Durango and lunchtime was beckoning. Did the usual Yelp search and pulled onto Main Street. As we trolled down the street we saw this place and were intrigued. A quick lookup and we decided on this place. We were greeted by a friendly young woman who took us to our seats which bordered the outdoor patio. Perfect start! Our waiter continued the feel of the place. It was all good. My wife ordered the chopped salad with bistro steak. My wife liked it but noted that there was something about the greens that was a bit bitter - 5 out of 10. Dad ordered the Chimayo Huevos. He said it had good flavor but the tortilla was a bit hard. I had the Prime Rib French Dip. Good but not special. 8 out of 10 on that. So, in the end, the food is what brought this a notch down. Service was good and decor was a mix of old and new - very nice. We'll do it again. Perhaps try something different. read more

Increasing my rating, last night dinner was perfect. Both dinners were amazing. The steak Taco's and carna Asada, steaks were cooked to perfection seasoned perfectly. The sauces were great and I loved the saffron rice with beans. Our service was the best we have ever had in town and we vist a lot. Drink orders were quick. We could've asked for anything better. I don't think I have ever given a 5 star rating. If I did it is. Rare we are pretty picky. This is a great place. read more
