El Moro embraces Durango’s Victorian heritage and reflects its history. In the early 1900s, 945 Main Ave. was the El Moro Saloon. Today, it feels similar to the original saloon with bare red brick walls, tin ceilings, hardwood floors and heavy wooden tables. The simple and memorable dishes are designed to blend classic, old-world preparations with exciting flavors and techniques of modern cuisine. El Moro offers selections ranging from burgers and handmade sausage to flavorful entrees utilizing chef-selected ingredients. El Moro’s bar offers spirits found nowhere else coupled with some of the most talented and visionary bartenders in the country.
