Matatlan Mexican Restaurant

Excellent service! Ordered veggie and vegan options and they were spot on and very tasty. The restaurant was spotless. It may be on its way toward setting the standard for best of the best in town. Well done!April 2,2017 - not sure if Matatlan is experiencing phone issues. We get a busy signal every time we call to place a to go order?

We enjoyed a late lunch here, and we are glad we found this spot. I ordered grilled chicken with yellow rice and a salad with avocado. The chicken was nicely seasoned. The red rice was interesting. The seasoning was good, but the rice tasted like Pilaf. Different from what I am used to getting at a Mexican restaurant. The chips were on point. I wish the salsa had a little heat to it, but I still enjoyed it. Overall, this is a great local spot that I will be happy to visit again!

Wonderful local spot for tasty authentic Mexican food if you are in North Durham. The owner is as kind as can be and their Camarones al Moho de Ajo is delicious, good chips and salsa and amazing carnitas!

Yes good food and excellent drinks. :) They are closed on certain days. Prices have went up recently.

This place has very good food and service. I had the fajitas Mexicana and my wife had steak and shrimp. Both were very good. My son had pizza that he enjoyed. The margaritas were very good as well.

Service was awful! Waitress never came back to check on us but she did go to the table w/4 Hispanic males multiple times.Order the dinner size b/c the lunch portion is seriously small, like not enough for a kid!Not sure what has changed b/c this used to be a great place to a decent sized lunch, Bidenomics maybe?

Great food, attentive service, and reasonable prices. Easily overlooked from the outside, but delicious and one of the best Mexican restaurants we've tried!

My favorite place for carne asada. Best skirt steak around and cooked perfectly. Comes with rice beans grilled green onion, jalapeño and cactus. There margaritas are good too!

Our favorite Mexican restaurant...we can walk there. Food is good and service is always good.

last chance! Food mediocre, over priced. The fam left hungry. too bad. Fajitas for two, $26, was normal amount for one. Kids were unhappy. Sorry
