"Great hole-in-the-wall Mexican near SFO airport" Came here for dinner at 6pm on a Monday night, based on good Yelp reviews. The place is unassuming-- has a thin stretch of outdoor seating and a handful of tables inside. Not super bright in lighting, and a TV inside was showing a baseball game. Seemed like a lot of the business was takeout, as people would come, hover, get food, and leave. I was GOING to order the fish tacos or a fish quesadilla, but I was swayed by the picture of a breaded fish plate special. My son got the carne asada quesadilla, and others at the table got a veggie burrito and a chicken bowl. Food came out pretty quick-- maybe around or just over 10 minutes (the fish plate and veggie burrito came out slightly after the other two). I was very impressed that the fish plate looked even BETTER than the photo (see photos of both). The fish was HUGE. There was a generous helping of guacamole, lots of fresh avocado slides, some onion and cabbage, etc. There was a nice bed of lettuce on the side with sour cream over it, and the rice & beans (covered with a thin layer of cheese) on another side. The fish plate was just delicious. The batter wasn't overpowering or too heavy, and the fish was excellent inside (and very flat). I really liked the sauce in a little cup on the fish, or having it with avocado or guacamole, or even straight. The rice and beans were yummy too. Such a great dish, and it was under $20 before tax and tip. My dining companions all liked their food, though my son said the carne asada meat was "just good" (he had a bite of the chicken and said that was better). The person at the register was friendly. And as mentioned, the prices were very reasonable. I'd happily eat here again if in the area. Great portion size, great quality, good value, etc. Enjoy! read more

The good: the burrito was tasty. The service was good. The bad: I ordered the California burrito, which is supposed to come with french fries. The burrito had potatoes, but they weren't french fries. They were boiled potato strips. Kind of somewhat annoying when that's what I was looking forward to. Also, I ordered a super burrito, but it was more like a taco. Burritos here are really small so if you're hungry, forget about it. read more

California Burrito: 9/10 -- loooooved this burrito! You can customize almost everything on the menu and choose choices of meats too. I got the pollo asado and it was incredibly hefty. Super flavorful but i had a hard time finishing it bc it was stuffed (no complaints!) but I wish it was a little saucier. They did have both salsa verde and roja available so after adding a loooot of sauce it was perfection. read more

I had a great breakfast burrito here. It had chorizo! Service was quick. Ambiance relaxed.

I really like this spot. The decor is really interesting and I liked that all the food was easy to read on the menu. The service was great. The woman working upfront was really nice and I really enjoyed the food. We got nachos and fish tacos would definitely come back here. read more

This place was pretty good. We came at the end of the day and ordered the fried fish tacos and the asada tacos with rice and beans. The food was all so good and very affordable. The service here was so friendly and we're excited to come back and try more food. read more

Finally back to enjoy my favorite fried fish tacos, when I'm In The area this is my favorite place. I ordered my usual, two fried fish taco plate. The rice and beans are freshly made. I normally get the black beans, but I was given the refried beans by accident. What a delicious accident, I will be getting these from now on. The fried fish is constantly delicious. They have added more plants and Christmas decorations to the outdoor dinning area. This is a must try if you haven't already. Jr is so friendly and helpful. Just know that the war is a little longer since food is prepared to order. I hope I get to go back soon read more

Cold and tasteless burrito with crappy customer interaction on the side. Yes please! Just the way I ordered it.

I really trying hard to make this my number one Mexican spot, but the lack of seasoning on the prawns still persists. As a Mexican restaurant, flavor is be the number one thing I would expect from this restaurant and it is not delivering in the prawns area. Really this review is about my last meal, which was the Durango fries with shrimp. I've already spoken on the shrimp, but let's talk about the fries. I don't even know if they were cooked at all. They had no brown on them or crispiness. It was just like potato mush. Very disappointing, considering the fries have numerous wet ingredients on top of them, so they need a substantially crispy french fry to hold up to all of the sock. This dish did not deliver. Please do better. read more

In the area and craving flautas. The ones at Mi Durango are filled with chicken and topped with crema and guac, and the plate comes rice and beans. There were 4 flautas and they arrived hot and crispy - good flavor. The rice and beans also had good flavor. Definitely satisfied my craving. Note - Bring cash as there's a surcharge when paying with credit card. read more

Taqueria Mi Durango - Flauta plate - Mexican Near Me - San Bruno, California

Didn't quite understand the hype about this place as I had gone a few times before. However, they are pretty decent and I usually only go for their burrito which impressed me last time I went. It's in an interesting location off El Camino and has indoor and outdoor options for dining. read more

Haven't been in this taqueria for a while now. I came back and was a little disappointed with the food. We got the carne asada plate & burrito. The food wasn't flavorful at all. The beans came out room temp & the carne asada didn't have flavor at all. It's self service in this taqueria. The only good thing is their manu selection, hopefully their other food options was good. read more

I ordered an al pastor super burrito with black beans in a spinach tortilla and a steak super burrito with black beans in a garlic tortilla for pickup. It was ready when I arrived. Quick, friendly service. The al pastor was very fatty and had bacon‑like pieces and some pineapple (didn't care for it), but otherwise the burrito was solid. Steak wasn't bad, but I'd order chicken next time. Would I come back? Yes! read more

Popular spot at the Milbrae/San Bruno border. Decent quality, middling value. Ingredient quality is fine, and the service is fast and efficient. The fact that they offer tripas is a huge plus. If you are looking for a large burrito stuffed to the gills with meat accompanied by great salsas, this is not really the place. The price/portion ratio is on the expensive/small side. It's not a bad choice for the area, but there are nearby taco tracks that do a better job in my opinion. read more

After several visits this spot deserves another 5 star rating. It all starts with the friendly service and ends with a full belly. The lengua burrito, is cooked to a tender- melt in your mouth, savory flavor all wrapped in a flour tortilla. The crunchy tacos are another fan favorite. The tacos are covered in their pink salsa that brings out the flavors of the meaty goodness. The floutas are crispy and delicious with their pink salsa and crema served with rice and beans. Not too many places offer a taco salad served in a deep fried tortilla in the shape of a bowl. Usually when I order this salad the only thing left are crumbs. The newly updated interior makes it more inviting and bright. This spot doesn't disappoint. With the many items on their menu, there is something for just about everyone. The location is small but packed with goodness. read more

Taqueria Mi Durango is Z's #1 favourite taco shoppe and has been our neighbourhood go-to taqueria for years. On average, we probably pick up food to go from here at least once a month. Venue: 3.5 stars. Located on El Camino in San Bruno, Mi Durango does not have a private lot, unfortunately, but there is a ton of free street parking. Sometimes you can find a spot just steps away from the front entrance. Indoor and al fresco dining is offered here. I love, love, LOVE their outdoor succulent garden in the patio. The main dining is small with just about a handful of tables and a salsa bar. Cleanliness of the interior could be taken up a notch or two. Food: 4 stars. The TACOS are the stars of Mi Durango, if you ask me. And why wouldn't they be? This place is a taqueria afterall. My go-tos are REGULAR TACOS, one each of generous heaps of CARNE ASADA, CHORIZO and PRAWN. They make THE BEST PRAWN TACOs! I also like their crispy FLAUTAS which V also enjoyed until he started to find bits of corn inside of them. Z never strays from his usual CALIFORNIA BURRITO with CARNE ASADA and DJ is faithful to the CHILE RELLENO. Their horchata is also good - no chalky residue at the bottom. Also, if you are ever there when they serve arroz con leche - get it!! Service: 4.5 stars Jesus gives nothing short of excellent, warm customer service. Definitely customer care is high priority here. I was disappointed, though, when we tried to hire Mi Durango to cook and serve onsite for one of our parties. Pricing was too high and they wanted prepayment only in cash. Bummer. Taqueria Mi Durango is quickly becoming a San Bruno staple. We're regulars, so see you there! read more

I was passing by and decided to try this spot. Ordered: a shrimp taco, a fried fish taco, and a shrimp burrito. The good: *super friendly staff, and the customers they attract also seem like a friendly bunch *well-decorated and cozy space *open sauce bar :) the highlight was the delish onion side *food: generous amount of shrimp in the burrito, and the tacos came with great veggies and sauces What can improve IMO: *everything was kind of bland. The red sauce from the sauce bar could've used more kick. Also, the fried fish was not crunchy. This won't be my spot if I was craving Mexican food, but I also wouldn't mind returning if someone insisted on eating here. read more

I tried their fried fish tacos and it was really good! They pack in tons of fish in the taco. They have a salsa bar to pair with their tortilla chips and dishes. I also tried a bit of their al pastor burrito and it was tasty. There is seating inside and a few tables outdoor. read more

This place is slow making your foods. I ordered 3 tacos, and it took them more than 15 minutes to finished. Totally unacceptable, I had ordered 1 regular taco at the price listed $3.95 and on my receipt it showed $4.20. How dishonest, please change your pricing on your menu board. read more

Nice hole in the wall spot. There's a tiny salsa bar and a few indoor and outdoor seats. It may be easy to miss heading southbound on ELC. The super quesadilla was thick and quite filling. It is sliced in half and served on a plate. The chips were average but the salsa is great. Horchata is served via fountain. They have Mexican bottled coke make with cane sugar and no high fructose corn syrup. They have some pre packaged cake slices in the fridge as well that looked good. read more

Chorizo or al pastor tacos for the meat lovers ! Carnitas tacos have a nice crunch Mi Durango - por favor configura la tienda en East Bay :) For folks who like SF taquerias like "El Metate" && "Taqueria Vallarta" - this place is a must ! read more

Buyer Beware!!! They are charging more than their listed menu prices. Cali Burritos are supposed to be $14.95 right now but they charged me $16.10 each. That is 7.6% above listed menu price (and you will pay more sales tax). This was not because I had a special addition to the burrito. This was not a credit card surcharge. This is not sales tax. They straight up, charged me more than the menu price without any modifications. When I looked at my receipt and pointed out the difference which was $3.65 more than I should have paid - the cashier said too bad. read more

Thanks to a recommendation in a SJ Mercury article highlighting the best Bay Area tacos, we decided to give this place a try. It did not disappoint! We ordered both the grilled and fried fish tacos, and they were amazing but we preferred the grilled. Each taco was generously filled and served on a corn tortilla, with the fish grilled to perfection and topped with cabbage, lime, and a spicy salsa. While I would have given this place a five-star rating, the service was just okay. We had to wait a while for our free chips from the salsa bar. As we enjoyed the freebies, we realized our order had been forgotten. After inquiring about it, the staff managed to bring our food out shortly after. The restaurant is small with limited parking, but it does have a really cool outdoor seating area featuring a succulent garden. We will definitely be back! read more

Delicious food! Service is always nice too. I'm usually not a taco person but the super taco with flour tortilla is literally a entire meal for just under $8! The guacamole here is delicious and FRESH! they do it right here. Lettuce fresh and so are the tomatoes. The pico de gallo is literally the only one I've found to have flavor here in the Bay Area, it is chunky, not watery and has a kick, most places it's plain and bland. Definitely try them out! When I work in the area it's my go to read more

I have driven by this place so many times and decided to gov this place a try yesterday night (my birthday!). I did not want to dine in since I had a long day of work already! I just wanted to get food and eat! Their menu has lots of variety to choose from. I really wanted super nachos and it was the best choice I made! I ordered carne asada super nachos and also got a carne asada super burrito. The order did not take a long time as it was ready within 10 minutes so very speedy! I took my food home and took pictures of it. My super nachos were on point! OMG the chips were perfectly crispy and were not soggy at all! All of the toppers were perfectly portioned and made literally every bite delicious and well seasoned! I have not had really mouth watering nachos in a long time! I ate every last chip along with more pico de gallo salsa that I took from the salsa bar. I think they fry their chips in house! The carne asada was tender and well seasoned! Everything about the dish was spectacular ! If you are ever in the San Bruno area in need of a nacho fix please check the place out!!!! I will be back! read more

Mi Durango has been consistently good over the years. Great little salsa bar. Everything is fresh, generous and authentic! Carnitas! Love the little outdoor seating alley with the succulent garden read more

I was very disappointed with what I thought should have been an al pastor wet burrito. What I tried to eat didn't seem anything like what it sounded like. It looked great, when I opened the lid, but it went downhill fast right after I got a mouthful of the "meat". It actually looked and felt like bacon, when it's not cooked throughly. I usually have my bacon on the well done, crispier side, but that's beside the point, because it was supposed to be a well marinated pork. My partner said that her fish tacos were fine, but she would prefer the other San Bruno Mexican restaurant down the block from this restaurant. I came here because one of my coworkers had a wet burrito from Mi Durango at work last week, it looked really good, and he said that they were his favorite place. Maybe next time I'll just stick to my standard carnitas burrito, regular, not wet? read more

Usually this place is pretty good but this last visit was a miss. The rice was soggy. The super burrito was missing guacamole. The food didn't taste like it used to. Not sure if the chef changed or they messed up the order and forgot the ingredients. Parking isn't super bad as there is turn over with parking on the street. read more

Been there 4 times now. The place is new. The outdoor seating area is huge! The foods are also good. I'd say it's a little pricey tho read more

We have been going to Taqueria Mi Durango for a few year. The food is not the same and prices have gone up a lot.

Good taco salads here $12.50. I ordered mine with grill chicken. The chips $1.50 were good because they have a nifty little salsa station. None are labeled so it is crap shoot of how spicy it will be. When I came on a Monday night, all the tables were taken both inside and out. I may have stood there for about 10 minutes before a table opened up outside. Lucky me, I sat next to a bunch of loud biotech talkers. It was pretty annoying. When my food finally arrived, the taco salad was delicious. I like mixing it all up before I eat it. The refried beans at the bottom tasted even better with the melted cheese layer on top. Service was excellent. Bonus points for the two TV's. One screen had Monday Night Football and the other was playoffs baseball. read more

One of the Best burritos ive had (tripe) but the 2nd time I went and ordered the same item, it wasn't the same quality at all (within 2 weeks). Thats too big a risk for a $20 burrito. I'll try again..but not anytime soon. read more

L like many recent reviews the hype is not real here. I phoned in a order on a Wednesday early evening and it was warm outside. But it was even hotter inside with no AC and a fan just blowing hot air. They have a large extensive menu with a lot of options. But the Durango nachos and super Al pastor burrito were underwhelming. The nachos weren't that great, fries could be crispier and the beans were hard. The super Al pastor burrito was small for a super and very oily. After eating half, all you could see is red pile of oil. Street parking Inside and outside seating read more

I ordered takeout for lunch for my family on a Monday. Not many Mexican places are open on a Monday but Taqueria Mi Durango was. We placed a order via phone and were told that it would be ready in 15 to 20 minutes. We arrived in 15 minutes and the food was ready to go. I ordered the Super Quesadilla with carne asada, black beans, pico de Gallo on a wheat tortilla. They have a few options to choose from in terms of tortillas (flour, wheat, tomato, garlic, spinach, and chipotle). You can also choose between different types of beans (black, pinto, etc). I've previously gotten take out from here before but it's been a hot minute so I figured why not given them another try because I really do not remember what I got the previous times. They have some seating inside and a patio on the side. They also have a salsa bar on the side where it is self serve. Ranging from reds to greens and vinegar onion/carrot veggies. The Super Quesadilla was good, but my taste buds were pretty confused. The combination tasted like a burger. The carne asada was not grilled enough. It was more like a ground beef. There were no charcoal smoky flavor to it at all. Usually the quesadillas I get are drier because the carne asada is usually a drier meat. This quesadilla was a bit more soggy because of the meat unfortunately. Overall, it was good but it was not anything I would rave about. I may try them again for tacos, but maybe pass on the quesadilla. read more

Wow I love the wooden exterior of this restaurant. Such a unique touch. They have indoor and outdoor seating. I got carne asada crispy tacos (comes with three), a side of guacamole, chips, and salsa. I really enjoy the wide range of sauce selection. From pico de gallo, habanero sauce, salsa verde, cilantro sauce maybe, mild sauce, and medium sauce. It all tasted really good and fresh. I love the habanero sauce with my tacos. It gives it a nice spicy kick. The guacamole tasted fresh all well. I would definitely come back to try other items on their menu. read more

Went for Breakfast Food - 5/5. The tortilla chips were excellent being fresh, crispy and having a slight tinge of sweet corn flavor. The clean oil helped elevate the subtle corn flavor and the myriad of different salsas paired wonderfully. Breakfast burrito was simplicity executed perfectly. Chorizo had a strong flavor that was soaked up by the potatoes and egg. Pink salsa added creaminess that brought all the flavors together. The garlic tortilla added an amazing aroma and the sweet garlic flavor in every bite. The mojado sauce was tangy with a hint of sweetness. Al pastor was tender and smoky with a pineapple finish. Beans were soft and the filling ratio was fantastic. Service - 4/5. Ordering is done at the kiosk and the food came out in good time. They have a self-service salsa bar with plenty of options. Value - 4/5. Burritos are priced in the low to mid $10s. The breakfast burrito is advertised as $10.95 but I was charged $11.50. It is not a huge difference, but I would have preferred the price to match what is stated. Portions are good and the flavors were fantastic. Tortilla chips and giant salsa bar was complimentary.
