Reviews for El Corral Mexican Restaurant in Durham, NC
We don't live here, but it is often our go-to place when everyone is hungry and nobody wants to cook. The portions are extremely... generous, and the food is delicious. Very family-friendly, and the staff are all very accommodating and on top of refills fordrinks as well as salsa and chips. I really love our (moderately frequent) visits here. Read more
Went today on the recommendation of a friend. The menu is almost like a chain restaurant menu. The salsa was a bit bland, I... wasn't a big fan of the chips either but I can be a bit picky at times. Salsa and chips come at the beginning of the meal. Ifyou ask for queso dip there will be an extra charge. I ordered the lunch special #11, I believe it was. Burrito Supreme. I wasnot disappointed when it arrived. Large plates, large portions. While the flavors were good, it did lack the spice I wouldexpect from Mexican style fare. My meal came with guacamole. I didn't see that on the menu. If you aren't a fan of guacamole,ask if the meal comes with it. Overall, not a bad spot for lunch. I'll be back. Read more
We have been here many times before. Always excellent service and great tasting food. This was on Cinco De Mayo and even though... they were very busy they got us in quickly. I highly recommend this place. Read more
Ordered 3 beef tacos. In the beef tacos I found a piece of chicken, a piece of tomato skin like thingy, and a piece of PLASTIC!... Looks like ziplock bag type material. Will never eat here again. Edited to add their ?salsa? tastes like marinara sauce withcilantro in it. Read more
Although we were seated directly behind the kitchen. The staff was friendly. The overall dining area was very modern & clean in... appearance. The food was excellent. Whenever we're passing through off of 85 this will be our new "go to " spot. Read more
