It was a wonderful atmosphere gorgeous day. What was interesting is there wasn't a lot of people there and I don't think I got a number or anything and she was just like I'll bring it to you and the English was a little bit broken and I thought I miss heard but she insisted that she would bring it out and coming from major cities typically you have a number or a buzzer or something And I didn't get anything so I had no idea what they said wasn't going to come or not and lo and behold about five minutes later she pops up and it's perfect.... It was really nice to slow down and remember that society functions just fine without 1 million gadgets. and that if people say they got you they got you and Durango is one of those towns where they got you

Both ladies were excellent, fun and very very welcoming. Nicest people we have met thus far driving from Nevada. Always smiling, not hanging over you while you eat, and extremely polite. The food was absolutely incredible. Over a week traveling with numerous stops, La Casita De Cortez absolutely comes out on top easily. Homemade food with passion behind it and generous portions. Everything was cooked to perfection and tasted incredible. The drinks were also impeccable with a decent variety of margaritas and others. Stop here if you can and enjoy every second of it! You won't regret it!

They have a decent amount of tables inside. The vibes are so fun with good music and decor. The had Diet Coke and the brew was great!! For my meal, I got the shredded chicken flautas, and they were SO good. The chicken was juicy and flavorful. I also really liked their rice. My SIL got the carne asada, and that felt like the star of the show to me. Everyone at the table enjoyed their meal. My husband got the steak, and it came out a little underdone. They took it back and cooked it a little longer for him when he asked. If you're wanting red meat, I'd say to go for the carne asada instead of the steak. Overall, super great experience especially for a road trip meal. I'd go back for sure!!!

I feel like it's the most consistent in flavor. When we were there last, we ordered that and a few others, like their chorizo special, the birria, pork belly, and the adobo chicken. All nice and moist, but I will say needed a bit more punch of flavor. I feel like the tacos though, regardless of flavor, are a nice portion size. You definitely don't leave hungry! They have really good margaritas, and I think they have a nice happy hour. Basically the margs are BOGO, which is especially nice if you opt for the large! Some of their other items, like nachos or quesadillas, all look super fun and delicious, and I think that's what I'll try the next time I'm there. This place can get really really busy as it's order at the counter and keep a tab open. So just be mindful of that as the line can back up pretty quick.

It was extremely windy that day, so even though there were tables and seating available, we opted to just eat in the car and head back out on the road.

In fact, it's the only spot in the area to grab food. They got a picnic table where you can sit and eat, which is nice if you want to take a quick break. I tried the traditional fried bread ($8). You can choose your own toppings, either sweet or savory. They have options like cinnamon sugar, honey, or garlic salt. I went with the garlic salt one, and while it was definitely on the salty side, it had a great garlicky flavor that I liked. They also sell snow cones in different flavors, and sodas are $3 and water is $2. They also really appreciate cash payments. Service was great. Food didn't take that long to come out.
