I enjoy the traditional basic Mexican food that is served here. I enjoyed my traditional tacos de carne asada and chille relleno with beans and rice. I enjoyed a Corona with my meal. They did serve chips and salsa upon sitting. If you want water you need to request it. The service was very good. It reminds me of Nuevo León that I use to visit in Chicago. The Ambiance has a very nice Mexican aura. You can sit in or care out. Has small parking lot. Also free parking on the side street. read more

Nice restaurant. Standard tables nothing too comfortable. Smaller parking lot. Carry out, dine in , or delivery. Reasonable prices. All of my food was tasty. I really enjoyed the problano taco for Taco Tuesday. Caldo de Res soup. Cerveza Pacifico. The server was kind. The menu was clear and offered a good amount of selections. read more

Food is delicious and consistent. We eat here every week and it's always amazing! The service is great, always recognize us and get the order right. read more

The parking lot is small, but easy to access, and there's plenty of side-street parking (though I'm not sure if it's permit-only). The dining area is spacious with plenty of seating for larger groups. Service is good, could be a bit quicker, but overall solid. When I have gone they have been limited to 1 waitress but that has been during the day in the middle of the week. The food is excellent, with generous portions. I mainly come here for the gorditas, they're bigger than at most places and packed with filling. The salsas are great, and if you are Latino you know that a salsa can make a dish. Overall, I give El Duranguito a strong 5/5! read more

Was in the area and decided to try this restaurant. It was before noon so I decided to go in and grab some tacos. I waited at the counter for quite a bit of time. It seems the young lady taking orders was overwhelmed by the electronic orders coming in or something. The place is a decent size with a nice amount of tables if you choose to dine in. When I was finally able to place my order I ordered 2 steak tacos and one ground beef taco to go. I received my order quickly and the tacos were very good. In the future, I would probably place my take out order online but it's a cool place to grab a quick bite to eat. read more

I have passed by this place so many times and finally stopped in a Saturday morning for breakfast. I ordered the menudo and I have to say it was very close to my mom's menudo! The place was busy and you can tell they were regulars. The decors was simple but clean. Will have to come back for a Durango style burger! read more

El Duranguito - The best!!! I feel as if I was back home in Santiago Papasquiaro! - Mexican Near Me - Maywood, Illinois

Great food and staff is also very professional. Super fast service! I love they're burritos, so delicious.

El Duranguito NEVER disappoints. Their tacos de lengua are the best. Los Comales, La Flor, Cilantro, Tacos Atotonilcos do not come close to their size and quality. The lengua is even cut differently and cooked to perfection. It doesn't even have a soft-slimy taste that you sometimes feel when eating lengua. Order the taco dinner that comes with rice and beans. The arroz is also a must-have. Did I mention they serve fries? If you love Gene & Jude's fries, these fries are one level up. One more - torta de pollo. There; I'm done recommending you to try their menu!! read more

First time customer. RUDE service! Called to place the order for pick up and before I could even ask what the estimated time the order would be ready they hung up. I had to call back. When it was time to pick up, absolutely no acknowledgement upon entering. Had me standing there waiting. No they were not busy at all. I was the only one there. They have a young girl up in front, wish i asked for her name to make her aware that being rude is NOT okay. Not cool. read more

Great food ala Durango style... Try the gordita de chicharron prensado or torta de pierna or a mexican hamburger...go for it... read more

We were working near by and we were looking for a place to eat and we chose this restaurant we had 8 people to feed and while we did wait a little bit it was worth it. Best Mexican food I've had all year. When ever we're are in the area again we will definitely Return to eat here again read more

me and my co workers order from here at least 3 times a week. we love this fu**ing place

the customer service is horrible, they are extremely stingy with the salsa. The food though is amazing and they make the burritos the way they do in Durango. I've heard this place was way better a few years back. I recommend the chips and salsa, the desherbada burritos and their green salsa. read more

Food was great & hot ! Salsa was good and spicy. Place is aesthetically pleasing and clean. Food tasted straight From Mexico. Highly recommend read more

After my long hiatus from yelping, I had a colleague who was told by another friend that this place had the best "Duranguito" burger .. enough to drive 1 & 1/2 hour to eat. I said to myself .. I gotta try this burger. Luckily for me I did not need to drive that long .. and well sorry to say it .. thank goodness and I mean that in the nicest way. This is the kinda place that if your in need of food to sober you up, it will help. I had this famous burger but right off the bat I noticed some trouble, if I didn't not eat this quick enough it was doomed to be soggy.. personally I do not like soggy burgers. The taste was good, the price was reasonable for what I ate, however I won't be eating the "Duranguito" burger again. It had way too much ketchup, mustard, mayo and the vinegar from the canned jalapenos they put on it, so much that I felt bad for the bun having to soak all that up. I got half way thru before it just fell apart. The fries were ok, I like that they are fresh cut fries with skin on them and possibly not frozen. I cant verify that. :) They have wide selection of Mexican food that possibly will have more appeal, so in all fairness there is room for improvement on my experience and I do plan to try something different to provide a better and NON biased opinion on this place. I am a true believe of the 3 strikes your out rule. read more

Decent place for a quick bite. The only reason I come here and highly recommend is their burrito with desebrada (shredded beef). You won't be disappointed with its juiciness and flavor. read more

Burritos never disappoints! I'd bathe in the chile sauce that's how good this stuff is...uh!

I love this place! Authentic Mexican food so close to home. They're very fast, once you order. Watch out for the green salsa it's hot! The Durango burger is amazing, and I don't even like burgers. I usually order gorditas and burritos for the family on a late night when I don't feel like cooking. The burritos are not huge like other places. They only contain the ingredient you choose as the filling. read more

Wow what a hidden gem. This place is small about 5 tables but the food is with the wait. U can call it a hole in the wall, not fancy, cash only. We are from Durango and this is exactly how they make gorditas y burritos! I had burrito de deshebrada (shredded slow simmered beef in hot sauce) gorditas all handmade chile pasado, chicharrón prensado, nopales, lengua. They aré sooooooo good! Watch out for the red sauce in the bottle! Definitely a keeper and a regular! Viva Durango read more

El Duranguito - Gorditas are pretty big and yummy! - Mexican Near Me - Maywood, Illinois

Great food. Small place, but recommend you check it out. Prices are reasonable. They are closed on Tuesdays though, which is an odd day.

Decent food for a okay price. Definitely wasn't the best Mexican food I've ever had. But the burger was interesting. The carne asada is a little too think, chewy and fatty for my taste but if you're into that then this place is for you. read more

Whenever I'm in Maywood I'm sure to stop at El Duranguito for a great meal everytime. I reccomend the burritos and Hamburgers they are delicious read more
