Chorizo burrito

Very cozy coffee shop/ breakfast place. We got a couple Chorizo and Southwest burritos to go and that was the only option available that morning. They both were delicious. We had them at a local park close. Would stop by again when in the vicinity.

Great food options, good coffee, and super helpful and friendly employees. Great breakfast stop!

A local favorite spot since forever. I live near here and sometimes pop in for a quick wrap or a smoothie. The staff is friendly, but can be a little slow during rush hours. The dining area is small, but cozy, and there is limited outdoor seating if you want to bring a dog. The prices are more than fair. The wraps are pretty big, so I often split one with a friend, making this a very affordable lunch. Each wrap comes with a side of slaw, chips and hummus or a couple other offerings. You can get pretty much any of them with tofu, so lots of veggie options. My favorites are the Albuquerque Turkey, the Firecracker and the crunchy Thai roll. I can also recommend the house-made hummus with red pepper. You could do a lot worse for a quick lunch than Raider Ridge. Happy travels! Seatbelts!

Originally we were going to another restaurant but they were close so we got here. Thank goodness!!! This restaurant is 5 stars!!! We met the owner who is super friendly and nice to chat. The service is impeccable. The food...oh my god...we ordered chilaquiles for breakfast. The absolute BEST. We are from Austin and eat lots of Mexican food but this one is unique, tasty, and beautiful. I got the one with chorizo and my partner got the one with chicken. Both are fantastic. Cozy and great selection of music. Love every part of this eatery. If you are in Durango, this is a must stop, y'all!!!

The perfect .5 to show off the perfect smoothie.

An amazing smoothie, great service, and super fast! The smoothies tasted so fresh, no ice chunks, and I felt healthier drinking it. Every sip is a beautiful surprise for my taste buds. You know I will be coming back here again.

Hermosa Cafe is a locals-only hot spot on Durango's main drag…read more I got crunchy and granola vibes and I don't say that in a bad way. It actually reminded me of a cafe I used to frequent in college. They make all their baked goods in house, it's tough to choose! You order at the counter and the line was long on a Saturday morning. They have a handwritten chalkboard menu behind the counter, but if you can't see it in line they have paper menus to grab at the register. The tough decisions arise when you get close to the pastry case. It's filled with delicious quiches, buns, and morning staples. I was intrigued by the quiches and they had a huge selection of them. I landed on the green chile and bacon (I think it was bacon?!) When I went to order I was hit with a question I wasn't prepared for. They asked me if I wanted it on a regular pie crust or a hashbrown crust. FTW?! I had never heard of such a thing. They said if I like potatoes then get the hashbrown crust...I'm so glad I trusted their recommendation! They indeed bake hashbrowns into the quiche and it acts as the crust. I don't know which crazy genius concocted this sorcery, but holy moly I love the ingenuity! I don't eat quiche that much and this one stood out. I'd definitely suggest the quiches to other people! A little chaotic inside on a weekend. You bus your own tables and the line gets narrow when you have constant foot traffic back and forth for picking up your order, going to the bathroom, etc. Staff was working hard though to move as quickly as they could. A pleasant find in Durango!

Did takeout one day and then went to the restaurant the next day…read more The service is great. So warm and friendly. It's a cute spot and not very big. When we ordered takeout, we got the chx fried steak, an omelet, biscuits and gravy and some fresh fruit. All of it was good.

Then I sat there for another 10 minutes and nobody even came back to take my food order, so I finally got up and left. The service was incredibly inattentive and the staff seemed like they couldn't care less. I initially put my name on the waitlist with one of the employees, and when I came back in later to check where I was on the list, the same person didn't even seem to know who I was or remember putting my name down. There only appeared to be a couple people working, and the entire experience felt disorganized from beginning to end. I was really looking forward to having breakfast here based on the reviews, but after 45+ minutes between waiting and sitting at the table without even getting to place a food order, I'd had enough. Warm water was just the icing on the cake. Extremely disappointing experience. I walked out and will not be back.
