Durango’s Tacos

alright. after hearing a lot of hype from this taco stand (and reading matt’s review) i decided to check out what the fuss was about. I have to say I am actually extremely disappointed. I ordered the Shrimp Cocktail (i didnt know what to order… so i ordered whatever they were adevertizing as their special). In my opinion, that was probably the worst $ 5 i’ve spent in my entire life (well. probably not the worst. I can think of a few other things that are up there too). I don’t know if i just ordered the wrong thing… I ate half of it (the shrimp of course), and then threw it away.
So to clean my palate I ordered two $ 1 tacos. One Assada and one cabeza. It was aite. Nothing special. I ran over to Rambos later to see if it was just being biased… and turns out Durango’s meat is not nearly as well marinated as other taco places I’ve been to.
So after a somewhat regretful experience, I plan to go back again to try that ceviche that matt wrote about. Maybe it’ll give me a better perspective.
for now 3 stars.
*by the way… Rambo’s ROSE their prices. $ 6 for a burrito? $ 1.25 per taco? forget that. I’d rather stop by King Taco. but that’s another story.
