" I had high hopes for Gorditas Durango based on what I read online, and I was not let down. The gorditas are indeed some of the best I've had in this area, very close to what I'd find back in Mexico. The staff was welcoming, and I enjoyed chatting with them while waiting. However, I would advise getting there earlier in the day if you want to secure some menudo, as it runs out fast! The only downside is they only accept cash, which can be troublesome if you forget. " (*Curated Review*)

" I finally visited Gorditas Durango after hearing so many positive reviews. The gorditas did not disappoint; they are authentic and mouthwatering! Great variety of fillings made it hard to choose. I'll definitely be back to try out the menudo next time. Just make sure to bring cash, as they don’t take cards. Fantastic overall. " (*Curated Review*)

" We came here after a recommendation from a friend, and it did not disappoint! The corn gorditas were rich in flavor, with the cheese melting perfectly. My children devoured their meals and even asked if we could come back the next week. The freshness of the ingredients was apparent, and despite being cash-only, the experience was worth it. Definitely one of the best authentic restaurants in the city! " (*Curated Review*)

" The food is really good, and I can't complain about the flavor. However, I found the prices a bit steep given the size of the portions. Service was average – nothing to write home about, but they were nice enough. I might give them another shot but with lower expectations. " (*Curated Review*)

" Just got back from Gorditas Durango and I can’t stop thinking about the delicious food! The gorditas were crispy and packed with fillings. I ordered the cheese with poblano peppers and it was delightful. The atmosphere was vibrant, and the service was right on point. Definitely going back soon for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing great things, I finally tried this place. The gorditas were tasty but a bit smaller than I expected for the price. The staff was pleasant enough, but I felt like I had to wait a bit longer than I would have liked for my meal. Overall, I'd probably come back, but I'd like a better experience. The authenticity was certainly there. " (*Curated Review*)

" I just had the worst experience here. The service was so slow, and they seemed to forget about our order. The food, when it arrived, was decent but not exceptional. I guess I was expecting more considering all the hype. It’s unfortunate because the flavors have potential. I might consider giving it another shot but not anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)
