Great food, Great prices, friendly service by Amie M on 6/8/2009 via Insider Pages
My family and I enjoy this place. The food is great and the staff is so friendly. Brightleaf is a nice place to hang out too. You can sit outside and enjoy live music at times. We would definitely recommend this place to friends.

Good Mexican in Brightleaf by Tommy A on 10/10/2008 via Insider Pages
The food at El Rodeo is always on the ball, with great chips and salsa to fill up your stomach before the delectable main courses come in. Great lunch specials and fantastic margaritas will leave you both buzzed and full on your way back…

surprised! by DurhamFoodie on 9/21/2008 via Citysearch
very surprised that El Rodeo was as good as it was. Very cool atmosphere, serves cold Corona's and very large burritos. Kind of challenging location to find. I recommend the burritos, there may be other good options but when i think of…

MY FAVORITE PLACE by steakeater03 on 1/7/2006 via Citysearch
El Rodeo on Main Street is one of the BEST mexican eating places. The wait staff there is extra friendly and quick. Everytime I go in they remember me and what I like! I wish that more places were like this one.

Good lunch, served quickly by rconglet on 1/6/2006 via Citysearch
El Rodeo is a great spot for a quick, hearty lunch that costs about the same as the average fast food joint. The service is fast, but it is good, too. The menu can be overwhelming, but I suggest you try the "Rodeo Lunch" -- very tasty. …

The servers at El Rodeo are friendly and helpful. Since I eat here a few times a month, the person who usually serves me even remembers my food allergies when I return. Their chicken fajita burrito is great, and their salsa, while mild,…

The food is always good, hot and served VERY quickly. That it's very inexpensive is an added bonus. I eat here at least once a week.

Typical fare by shakezilla on 10/21/2002 via Citysearch
Typical fare, this place is totally identical to every other Mexican joint in the Triangle. I like how there's a string of reviews that rated this place "10". Not fishy at all. Duh.

Great Food and Price! by arthurb3 on 9/11/2002 via Citysearch
The El Rodeo in City Market is my favorite! I eat here all the time. They are always friendly.

aye Que' bueno by puertoricanqueen on 8/25/2002 via Citysearch
Best margarita within any distance you care to drive. The jumbo is serious so go with a designated driver. Juan will make you feel like an old friend.

Boring. by mgwalter on 6/6/2002 via Citysearch
Standard American Mexican. It's inexpensive, nothing surprising, nothing special. You'd do better exploring other less generic Mexican choices.
