I don’t often give out 5 stars, but this spot deserves it. I had a Mexican pizza and my husband had a burrito. The Mexican Pizza (don’t you dare call them nachos) was crunchy to the last chip and each chip had toppings on it. The cocktails were also fantastic and well balanced. I recommend this place if you are looking for a new spot to become you next favorite.

Loved it! So we went late tonight and were the only ones in the dining room. This was our first time going. We meet Seth who walked us through the menu and served us some good beer, wine and cider. I had a burrito and my partner a Mexican pizza. We shared the chips and queso. Everything was amazing! The interior was also really nice so I was surprised to see it empty. I will definitely be returning to this hidden gem and plan to become a regular.

We stopped here for lunch after hearing about the place for a while now and will definitely be back! Highly recommend the burritos and chips with queso dip. While the food was delicious, the real star was the dessert. Best churro I have had in a long time, and the homemade soft serve ice cream was perfect. If I may be so bold, I’d recommend getting both and taking your churro for a little dip in the ice cream. I think if it was possible to combine the two into a sundae you’d have the best dessert in Durham hands down.

Great service and excellent beer! They brew all their own beer and offer a variety beyond the ubiquitous IPAs (though they also have several tasty options) and recently offered an English bitter. The menu is restricted to a few items but includes a wide range of unique burritos.

TLDR: Wife and I are coming back and we would have taken a photo, but we ate everything too quickly.Really fantastic food and my wife and I are already talking about being regulars. Gushing about the Mangum Opus burrito right now and sort of wishing I had gone for the larger size when ordering, but that is for when we return. The chips and queso are also great and these are thick and well seasoned satiating chips.The beer selection is also impressive and has a wide variety worth exploring. Something I also didn't expect was the soda options. Puck's branded soda is new to me but it is a game changer for someone like me who usually against the corn syrup tastes of the usual brands. Puck's cane sugar makes the soda go down perhaps too easily ?.

First visit. Walked in, ordered, played a game of pinball then my chimichurri chicken burrito was ready. A touch pricy $15.05 for one burrito, no drink or chips but the quality made up for it. Delicious. I would add a picture but the food is already gone.

Restaurant looking for an identity! Not sure if this is a bar, fast food joint, arcade, or mexican restaurant. Confusing counter/walk up window service. Large bar but told we could not order at the bar (despite other people being served at the bar). Ordered chips and salsa - the salsa tasted like marinara sauce and the flour tortilla chips were oddly spiced with ranch/indian spices and tasted like greasy fried pita. So disappointing we left and had dinner elsewhere.

If you like the Bull City Brewery and Burgers in downtown, this is the same folks doing the same great beers and offering a variety of burritos, appetizers and such. Their Chimichurri Chicken burrito was worth a visit by itself.Simple and open space with some retro pinball and foosball. Super nice and helpful staff.

When they first opened up, their interior was not open, and they were only doing takeout at a window (they did have outdoor seating). A year or so later, they opened up the interior and have beers on tap and cocktails. On our recent visit, we ordered two burritos, a side of red rice, and chips and salsa. Their chips are very interesting and more like crackers. They feature original burrito combinations, not staples at regular Mexican restaurants. They also have decent options for vegetarians and vegans. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Prices are reasonable and portions are good. Worth a visit for a filling, fast casual meal.

Awesome. I had the ' Today's Feature', a chimichurri chicken burrito. It had so much flavor in it. I left there very full. Atmoshphere was great too.
