At the window I was greeted by a very friendly older gentleman who took my order. He asked if I would like him to add some chips in. I had ordered a carne asada burrito. It was very good. In addition to the rice and beans there was lots of meat. A good facelift and fixing the ordering speaker would them up to a 5 star.

The steak was perfectly seasoned, tender, and packed with flavor. The burrito was smothered in delicious sauce, topped with melted cheese, and cooked to perfection. Every bite was incredible.

The staff was friendly and welcoming, making the whole experience even better. If you're looking for authentic Mexican food that's full of flavor and worth every penny, this is the place to go. I'll definitely be coming back to try more of the menu, but the wet asada burrito has already earned a permanent spot on my favorites list. Highly recommend!

As others have stated Mi Durango is located in a strip mall and you will drive right past without seeing it unless you are looking for it. Nondescript on the outside but quite pleasant and warm on the inside considering its strip mall location. There are booths along the walls and tables down the center with seating for about 45 if I had to guess. I seated myself and the waitress was over right away with a menu, I ordered the "Mi Durango Special" which consists of One Cheese Chili Relleno with Chili Con Queso, One Atotonilco Taco, One Cheese Enchilada, Rice & Beans. For the beverage I ordered a jamaica. My drink was brought to me right away and after a short wait the waitress was back with my lunch. The food was presented on two plates with the taco on a separate small plate and everything else on a larger platter. This was a lot of food and I could have brought half of it home for later but it was so good I finished it all right there. The waitress checked up on me a couple of times and came over when she noticed my drink was almost gone and asked if I needed a refill. In conclusion, the food and service were top notch and you would be doing yourself a disservice if you didn't stop by and give Mi Durango a try! read more

Zero stars as far as I'm concerned...Beware of mi Durango Tex mex restuarant its a big rip off, you get secret charges of things you didn't order and especially from that scandalous Vanessa she is such a con that before you know it,that bill you receive is more than double and there pulling some b.s. I'm never returning to this scandalous restuarant...for my money the tortilla grill on ave L & 30th st west is your best bet for great food and customer service with honesty.... read more

If you want to go somewhere and have terrible customer service, then this is the place for you. The owners son has no idea how to treat customers. It's actually kinda sad for his mom who worked hard to build this restaurant into something profitable. However, if you let scum run your business, then you have to be ready to bear the consequences. I will never spend my hard earned money there and again and I hope you'll think twice too. read more

Wine, Fajita with cold salad and people you like to hang with around is possible at Mi Durango Tex-Mex. They are by far the excellent Mexican food providers. I can go gaga about them for their amazing dishes, presentation and the taste. Even the charges are reasonable. I am in true love with this eating outlet and prefer Mexican food over any other food type. read more
