El Rodeo South Square - Durham

The service is excellent and quick. The portion sizes are average. The flavors are good, but not outstanding. It can get a bit noisy inside. The decor is colorful and whimsical, creating a very festive atmosphere.

Excellent place, good service, excellent eating, attentive helpful and very friendly waitress, reasonable prices, very spacious and very comfortable interior, highly recommended.

This place was terrible. it was extremely disappointing when I had not eaten all day! I wanted to come a few Mexican foods (my favorites) and the chicken was warm, the garnel was not fresh. the tastes were not good together. the sweet was not fresh (the paprika were good). Finally, the tortilla chips were stone and watery. bad customer service! the only thing that was good was the price!

When we finally placed our orders, the food came out relatively quickly and was up to the usual high standard. However, the waitress didn’t check back on us during the meal; we had to flag her down for drink refills, and there was no follow-up to ensure everything was satisfactory. After we finished, she quietly brought the check with no words exchanged—no thanks or encouragement to return, just a quick pick-up of my card from the holder. Overall, it was a tasty meal, but the lack of hospitality made for a disappointing dining experience.

Some of the better Mexican food I've had in the Durham-Chapel Hill area. The beef in the burrito was nicely seasoned. Thre sauce on the burrito was delicious. As you can see from the photo, it is a huge burrito. The cheese enchilada was likewise delicious. The cheese was some of best I've ever jad in an enchilada. The moldè sauce had a hint of cocoa and was very good. My only disappointment was the salsa. It was very think and tasted like tomato juice. It lacked any flavor other than that of tomatoes. However, since everything else was so good, it's not a deal killer. Service was great and plenty of atmosphere. Go there, you will get your money's worth
