Nestled in a chic new casino, Mijo boasts a stunning vibe, delicious lobster tacos, and top-notch service, making it perfect for stylish group brunches.
"The outdoor dining area at Mijo has all the style of the dining room with cozy seating and overhead macrame chandeliers. Settle in for tender birria short rib, fajitas, and ceviche. Or make it a morning visit with a brunch of tacos and churro French toast." - Janna Karel
"Entering the Mexican restaurant within the Durango Casino is exciting enough, navigating through a serpentine corridor adorned in marigolds. Follow it all the way to the dusky black dining room — or stop halfway at the entrance to a liquor cellar. There are bunnies everywhere but pull the right one to unlock a door and watch as the shelves of tequila give way to a crimson-drenched tequila bar." - Janna Karel
"Many of the restaurants at the new Durango Casino boast spacious outdoor seating. Seated beneath oversized macrame decorations hanging from the ceiling and warmed by heating lamps, dine on lobster tacos and short rib. For extra heat, order a dessert of a chocolate skull set aflame tableside." - Janna Karel
"The Durango Resort’s Mexican restaurant is already a popular weekend destination. Dine either in the sleek back dining room or take brunch to the patio beneath a ceiling of macrame. Start with tortilla soup, share a super flavorful birria torta, and save room for churro French toast." - Janna Karel
"Wax Rabbit at Durango Casino invites guests to a “Shattered Reflections” party, soundtracked to early 2000s hits with bottle specials and craft cocktails. This nostalgia-fueled party will feature aptly-named bottle packages, like the G-L-A-M-O-R-O-U-S” with bottles of Cristal, Ciroc, and Don Julio 1942 for $1,600. The event starts at 8 p.m. for those looking to take a step back in time." - Jen Avison Smith
