I stumbled across El Moro nearly 4 years ago on a brief overnight in Durango. The food and especially service, thanks to Thomas Wallace was so good that I knew I would be back one day. Thomas spent hours teaching me about spirits and introducing me to new cocktails. He even shared the history about many of the spirits. His passion and skill were top tier! Fast forward to now, an unfortunately Thomas is not presently working at El Moro, but I was fortunate enough to have stayed in touch with him. He connected me with the GM, Mandi and together the two of them helped make my engagement day an unforgettable experience. The food, cocktails and service remain amongst the best I’ve ever experienced. This place will be a staple for us every time we visit Durango! Thank Thomas, Mandi, Paco, Ralph, Greg, Conner and Emerson for your hospitality and incredible service! Food: 5 Service: 5

Tony, Tommy, & Tiffany delivered a killer service. Enormous spirits selection including whiskey options that rises up a two story wall. Every restaurant shut down food service @ 9:00 on a Saturday night, but their kitchen remained open till 11:00. So happy I didn’t to have to resort to a grilled cheese or drive through and instead got a 5 star meal. Prices are very reasonable too!

Ask about the Sherriff and the Marshall El Moro was recommended to me by the front desk at the Stater Hotel. Typically, I'm skeptical of these recommendations but it was a wonderful evening to stroll up Main street and I soon found myself at the bar of El Moro. The service could not have been better! My glass was kept full of a wonderful liberation (try their twist on a Manhattan, amazing. For me the apple beet salad was unusual and delighted. The dressing is thick and smeared around the inside of the bowl (trust me on this one) and allows you to get just the right amount. The NY strip was fine, nothing that I would seek out again. But the people, so kind, so full of a unique place (check out the food grater lamps around the bar.) Oh, and don't forget to ask your server about the Marshall and the Sheriff.

The food was good, presented very well. The portions were a touch less than average, but their various charcuterie boards were priced nicely to make up for it. The waiter was a complete flake, visited us once throughout the meal, offered us free dessert for my wife's birthday, then completely forgot, even after reminding him. We aren't the type to remind someone a third time, so it ends up here. Food: 3 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 4

Is the food at El Moro good enough to make up for the terrible service? No, not in my opinion. One would think that the manager at El Moro would appreciate the extra money being spent in the establishment while we waited for the rest of our party and our reservation time at the bar but the attitude we received proved otherwise. If you are looking for a fun night out with more than five people, find another restaurant. The more people in your party the less excited they are to have you dine with them. The reservations were unable to be processed online and had to call the restaurant to make a reservation, which required a credit card to charge if someone in the party didn't show up is not stated anywhere on the website. Is this only for larger parties or all reservations in general? Our waitress seemed to be enjoying her time even less than we were and was taking it out on us. Would not recommend it.

The Firefly is delicious! The Southside was smooth and went down way too easy. we had the Bulgogi, ultra tender sirloin on top of risotto with a side of baby bok choi and black sesame seeds in spicy drizzle w/ microgreens. Wow, very pleasing! Great wait staff & friendly service. Our friends had the shrimp & grits and the lamb burger and were pleased with their meals too.

El Moro Alex our waiter was spiffy, love his vibe, vivacious attitude. I loved the green curry mussels. Mhusband ordered the Bologogi, fabulous, loved the bokchoy! Jen and Calso did a great job greeting us and getting our table ready. Ricky walked by with the biggest smile on his face, carrying his favorite dessert to a customer. I WOULD RECOMMEND Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Got a Monday Night ? beer that was very good. Kinda tasted like an Alagash White Ale but I haven’t peeked in the brown paper bag yet to find out the big secret. Wifey had the “Remember the Maine” and it was very good — kind of a sweet peppermint flavor.

Went here late at night for apps, desert, and a night cap. The location is fantastic, exactly what I want from downtown Durango! Service was super fast, even close to closing. Everyone was very nice and it was delicious. Will make this a regular stop on each visit from now on.

Wow! What can we say? Stumbled upon this place at 8:30 PM and had a truly wonderful experience. The specialty cocktail list is a collection of unique drinks invented by all the different bartenders. We had the Prickly Pear salad and the Buratta. Both so clean and flavorful. Our drinks were amazing. But the staff, that’s the real gold in this place. Everyone was so kind, fun and conversational. Will be back when we come to town! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
