“ Im giving it 5 stars, the food is good the drinks are good and the service is good . . . But the people are like zombies. Its a good place and could be a great place but I wish the people were a little more lively and thankful for their jobs and me being there. They really need to work on their people skills. ”
“ Awesome chicken and salad. Wife and I split an order and it was plenty and delicious! Highly recommend. ”
“ Food is always good. We come here a lot! This time we were a little grumpy and tired and our server Patrick had such a good attitude, was super kind and helpful and totally turned our night around we appreciate you Patrick!! ”
“ So good! We went early (5:30pm) on a Saturday night and had to wait for a table but it was worth it! We started with the fried okra and I had the chicken fingers dinner and my son had the chicken wings dinner. We love spicy and chose the spiciest sauces and they had good flavor and spice which is hard to get both. The chili lime sauce was overly salty for me but my son said it was fine. Will definitely go back when next in Durango. ”
“ The chicken tenders where amazing. The Chili n Lime sauce is my favorite so far. The only thing I wish is that they would give discount to Cloud 9 Headshop Employees as we are right across the street. We would love to start telling everyone where the best chicken is at! ”
“ Great spot to get some wings and watch a game. The wings are some of the biggest I’ve ever seen in my life, and I eat quiet a few wings. The nachos were good, and they give you a cup of salsa to dip your chips in with the nachos, which makes them crunchy the entire time, because no salsa soaks into the chips. The tenders were great, and the sauces were just what I was looking for. Love eating here. ”
“ Felt like we found a local gem on our trip to Durango. It was so delicious and if we blinked we would have never seen it. The wings and tenders were amazing. We loved trying the fried Mac and cheese appetizer it was yummy and unique. Everything was awesome. We will definitely return next time we are here ”
“ Sitting at the bar getting top notch service from Mark - a star - (local draught beer, loaded potato skins) and watching by Steelers hopefully getting vengeance on the Browns. Had seen online this was a place to catch the NFL (multiple screens, great casual ambience) and I can confirm. The food, beervand service an unexpected plus. Location also perfect. If in Durango when a game of interest is on STOP IN. ”
