We came for a business trip to Opelika this weekend. We craved Mexican as is one of our favorite foods. We found Durango; great place, nice environment but most importantly, great authentic Mexican food, clean, well decorated. Personnel absolutely courteous. We highly recommend this place. read more

I was genuinely impressed with this place. I was in town on business and did not want fast food, so I settled on this place once I noticed the full parking lot. I figured if all those people were there, there must be a good reason why. And, that there was! It isn't the best Mexican food I have ever had, but it was definitely on a higher level than most of your hometown Mexican joints. The cheese dip was basic, but the margaritas were big on size and taste! I ended up settling on the sopes for my meal and again, I was not disappointed. The variety of meat and beans were piled high on each of them. They were hot and super tasty! Overall, I am glad I stumbled upon this place and if in the area again, I will swing in for a marg and a sopes! read more

Durango Mexican Restaurant - Sopes! - Mexican Near Me - Opelika, Alabama

Down to see my Razorbacks break their losing streak against Auburn. Durango Mexican Restaurant was right next to my hotel so we thought, what the hell. Place appears to be popular. The Mexican food is your standard fare. It's good but not great. Their margaritas were good but they appear to be the premix stuff. If you are in Opelika and want some Mexican food then I say give this place a try. read more

This is my new favorite Mexican restaurant by far. The salsa was fresh and had a good kick to it but was absolutely delicious. I had one of the combination plates and it blew my mind by how tasty it all was. I thoroughly enjoyed having leftovers. It was a good value and I was happy to see there's a nice looking lunch special menu since I work nearby. read more

Durango Mexican Restaurant - Number 26. - Mexican Near Me - Opelika, Alabama

I guess if you're ordering quesadillas and burritos this might be run of the mill Mexican. However, they have some choice authentic dishes you can't find in any Mexican restaurant around here. If you really want to know what this place can do order the bisteck sopes, mole, torta, asado de puerca, or machaca. They have pretty good fajitas, but if you're going to go that route just get the sopes! They are incredible. Also, the service is always fantastic, the food always comes quick, and the portions are large. Expensive? I've never noticed it being expensive. Which means that I've always felt like I've received a great value. Go. My favorite place to get Mexican food! read more

We just moved to the area and this is the closest Mexican place to our home, so we decided to give it a shot. We ordered to-go and the food was actually very good. The beans are a little runny but overall, not disappointed to have this place be out go-to when we want Mexican. read more

The salsa was ok but I have had better but the portion on the beef fajitas was generous and have a great flavor, if they had home made tortillas it would have been perfect but the overall meal was worth it and will definitely return. read more

Durango Mexican Restaurant - Mexican Near Me - Opelika, Alabama

We ordered the #26, which is a burrito,and an enchilada,with beans and rice. The burrito was only some meat wrapped in a flour tortilla, the enchilada was the same meat but wrapped in a corn tortilla, nothing else. They came to us cold, and tasted exactly like a 99¢ Swanson's TV dinner. When we complained that it was cold, the waitress asked if we wanted a 'to go' box, and asked if we'd like a margarita. We accepted the drink, (which was very good) assuming that it was compensation for the cold food. But when the check came, we were charged $15 for the margaritas! Bottom line, save yourself some cash and buy the Swanson's, it'll be about $40 cheaper and probably better tasting. read more

The restaurant had a nice set up. The food itself was terrible. We ordered a Mariscos soup and a grilled chicken salad and they both tasted like they were stepped on then placed in a plate. Customer service was terrible we constantly made eye contact but they ignored us. If I could rate them a zero I would. Paid left and don't recommend to anyone. read more

Service was good. The food was not that great. Ordered spicy burrito and I guess their definition of spicy is different from mine. Glad I got jalapeño on the side. Just a step above Taco Bell or maybe I just tried the wrong meal. Salsa was so so and cheese dip way too runny. read more

Not sure how this place is still open, they consistently use spoiled products and then still make you pay for the meal with the spoiled products that they put on there. Very unprofessional establishment, very unsanitary and I'm not sure why alot of people who have eaten here haven't gotten sick. Saw one review where a girl got Listeria at the sister restaurant in tiger town. So apparently they use spoiled or expired products at both locations. The health department should really check this place out. I wouldn't feed this food to my dog for fear that he would fall violently Ill. read more

Best fajitas I've ever had. The meat is well marinated and tender. Good, strong margaritas! I love Andres - he is a really nice guy. It's worth the short drive up the interstate. read more

Staying in Opelika while in town working and decided to eat here one night. The cheese dip was good but was a little too creamy for my taste. The combination platter made up for it though. I did ebook the sweet tea! read more

Pleasant service and plentiful portions of mediocre Mexican food. The salsa is okay. The mole was overly sweet and devoid of the normal savory richness I find in other restaurants. I really tried to like Durango but found that it fell short on fall too many areas. read more

The 4 is for the price and the Salsa. It's not amazing Mexican food, but it is good. The price is unreal and my wife bases every Mexican restaurant on their salsa (she loves spicy hot, she puts gasoline on her food), and she rated the salsa a 5. And the servings are huge. read more

Nice people and the owners really do come from Durango, Mexico. Food was okay, but the waiter disappeared for about 15min while we were trying to get the bill. We bought a fajitas for two plus two drinks and paid $45. I think it was a little high for a typical Mexican restaurant. The place was cold in winter so I think the owner's were just being cheap to save on heating. The place also has an outdated layout with no TVs for watching sports in a big football community. read more

Stopped in on our way back from Gulf Shores. Great food and service! I guess I didn't say enough for this to be a review so I'm adding to it. Salsa is great! read more

The best Mexican in Lee County. Excellent staff consistent service and food quality. BEST MARGARITAS!

This place is really just hit or miss. Sometimes it's good other times it's not. But I'd say the last time we went will be our last time ever. The service was not good and neither was the food. Since when does a steak and cheese quesadilla come with two pieces of steak?? read more

How do you mess up a burrito? It tasted like hamburger helper in a tortilla. Everything was tasteless and poorly done. Taco Bell would have been better. read more

My husband and I had dinner at Durangos tonight and enjoyed it very much. The service was outstanding and the food was very good. We particularly enjoy their chips and salsa. The chips are crisp and warm and salsa has just the right heat. The prices are about average for Mexican in the area and I noticed that their health grade was 100! Impressive! read more
