We had a very pleasant experience at Nini’s Taqueria! First of all, the owners greeted us immediately and explained the menu options. The restaurant was immaculately clean and it was obvious that the owners take pride in their store. I was pleasantly surprised by the portion of barbacoa on my bowl! My husband had to finish my bowl (which almost never happens). I love the mix of lettuce with cabbage and the delightful salsa options. I would definitely recommend this place over any taqueria in town!!! Delicious food, great service, clean restaurant, made to order quickly! 10/10

Nini’s now has breakfast! (Seriously, this is big news in our little town.) I was amazed by how delicious my breakfast burrito was. It is high protein and seemed to have quality ingredients. Came with a tasty green sauce. Many breakfast choices, including a salmon dish. I work nearby, so this is going to be my go-to spot for breakfast & coffee (a local roast) many mornings now. Still open for lunch and dinner, of course. Dog friendly. Very kind local owners, too.

Great little place to grab some Mexican food. I was a bit struck by the staff, but the food was good. They also have the soda fountain with Durango soda company soda! Pretty good stuff!

Great lunch on the patio with great tacos! We enjoyed both the chicken & fish tacos with corn tortillas. Fresh ingredients and delicious variety of salsas ranging from mild to hot. Service quick & easy at the counter.

We had a great lunch here. Hubby had burrito and I had chicken quesadilla. Both were excellent and reasonably priced.

We’re out-of-towners and had a fantastic experience here! The outdoor seating is beautiful, with stunning views and the charming sound of the train coming and going nearby. My boyfriend and I ordered the carnitas and barbacoa quesadillas—both were delicious. I also tried the jalapeño margarita, which was flavorful, crisp, and super refreshing. 10/10 would absolutely recommend this spot for you and your family!
