El Moro Tavern

Capitalizing on Durango, Colorado’s “old west” and Victorian heritage, as well as contemporary culinary trends and techniques, El Moro Spirits and Tavern will join Durango’s family of unique and independently-owned restaurants in mid-July 2013. Dining in Durango Colorado just got more exciting. With no known comparison, El Moro is capitalizing on the region’s growth of entrepreneurial ranches and farms, many of which are organic, and will utilize a majority of locally grown and raised ingredients in its menu items. The menu is being described as “modern rustic.” The simple and memorable dishes are designed to blend classic, old world preparations with exciting techniques that have evolved from the modern cuisine movement, such as spherification, which will highlight the qualities of the ingredients. The menu will change seasonally, and include specials based on available fresh ingredients. Most meats will have been raised and harvested locally.
