What People Are Saying About El Rodeo Mexican Restaurant

In Short – A corporate fern bar located in the renovated, cobble-stoned Brightleaf Square--the highlight of downtown Durham. Enormous selection of American-friendly Mexican fare. More than 32 combo choices (such as one taco, two enchiladas and rice: $6) as well as the especialidades de la casa. And if you never thought you'd veer from the beef burrito, you haven't seen the 15 vegetarian optionsat Rodeo--try a potato burrito with a chalupa on the side.

surprised!

by DurhamFoodie

very surprised that El Rodeo was as good as it was. Very cool atmosphere, serves cold Corona's and very large burritos. Kind of challenging location to find. I recommend the burritos, there may be other good options but when i think of them, I think of freshness...which is always a good thing!

  • Pros: Different but very good.
  • Cons: Hard to find
3 Star Rating: Average

Standard Mexican Fair

by joeypm

Been here a few times for Lunch. Usually its crowded and the Salsa is OK. The portions are modest compared to other Mexican restaurants. The Food Quality is OK, nothing special. Selections are standard fair. The service is good and the wait staff friendly. The Price is very reasonable but, considering the portion, its right on par. I am guessing the other reviewers dont go out much as there are better Mexican restaurants in the area.

  • Pros: Price, service
  • Cons: portions
5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended
