Super cute spot. I'm a regular here. Love their chips, queso, and salsa (especially since they keep it flowing through the whole meal). Great mixed drinks and the food isn't too greasy or heavy! Love this place.
We ordered the lunch special ( 2 tacos rice and beans with a drink). I ordered beef and my friend ordered chicken. They both tasted off. My beef was room temperature on the verge of being cold. She completely forgot my rice and beans. Chip and salsa was good.
This was my first time visiting NuvoTaco. I’ve always rode past, but never stopped for chow. I enjoyed the quick service & friendly staff. They ensured we had everything we needed. I ordered the $12 lunch special and it was filling.
Visiting my brother in Durham and he took us to Nuvo Taco. The food and service were excellent. A very casual and fun atmosphere, it was very busy while we were there. Between 3 people we had tacos with chicken, garlic beef, chorizo, grilled shrimp, and pork. We had a side of esquite street corn which was super delicious.
Have I not reviewed NuvoTaco yet?? Best Mexican food in Durham. My family and I love this place and have probably been a few dozen times. We take every visitor from out of town here. We have a few different diet restrictions and they are so accommodating. Food is fabulous, quick, and affordable. Incredibly convenient to order from our table, although you can order with a person as well. Approachable and adorable atmosphere. Good for a casual date or a family outing. We always sit at their outdoor seating, which has fans and heaters depending on the season. At the table in this photo, you could fit 8 people. Hard to find parking, but there is a reason.

Fresh, flavorful Mexican street food in a vibrant, casual atmosphere.
