Cosmic Disaster!!!!!!! by Lips with truth on 3/24/2012 via Citysearch

The food is bland, they charge a ridiculous fee for avocado and the place is dirty

Cheap, bland food; pleasant atmosphere. by culurienneldoreth on 1/13/2010 via Citysearch

Cosmic Cantina offers cheap, huge burritos. You could split one with a friend, or, if you finish one yourself, be completely stuffed. You can alter yours to be vegetarian or vegan. They taste OK, nothing special. And if you care about…

Best Late Night Food by CatHoward5 on 9/14/2009 via Menuism

If you can maneuver the narrow staircase to the second floor at 2:00 am, Cosmic is the best late night food...

Condemn as a foreign policy gesture by durhamexan on 3/6/2009 via Citysearch

The Cosmic Cantina is a sham, a travesty, an abomination and a crime against humanity. The restaurant (does it earn that title?) should be condemned as a gesture to our neighbors to the south. I've had some terrible imitation Mexican fare…

It is not just about the burittos by Jill D on 1/6/2009 via Insider Pages

Most people will talk about their burritos, but please do not ignore the rest of their menu. Burritos are great, but they have so much more to offer besides their giant burritos. I personally love their tacos with black beans and chicken.…

No confusion. Cheap, tasty food. by Silas S on 10/9/2008 via Insider Pages

Cosmic Cantina, a little hole-in-the-wall above Perry St. in Durham, is one of those places you miss when you're not in town. It's in a studio-loft space on the second floor with a back deck in a quasi-urban area, and it's almost tough to…

Huge Portions by Stephanie S on 5/27/2008 via Insider Pages

There are a few reasons why I really like Cosmic Cantina the portions are huge, the food is so so inexpensive and their open until like 3am on Saturday night.

Not what I expected by Karim _ on 12/23/2007 via Insider Pages

So I heard the Cosmic Cantina had the best Mexican food in Chapel Hill. That is far from true. The food is average and service was far from what I expected. We got there and it took a while for the hostess to greet us and seat us. Then…

Cheap Eats by Kareema M on 12/12/2007 via Insider Pages

This is a great spot to get authentic mexican food at a cheap price. When I'm low on money I take my kids here. The portions are very hefty so it's easy to share. One can easily feed a family of 5 for under $15. I also like that they offer…

Better than any chain in the Triangle! by raleigh_grrl on 9/27/2007 via Citysearch

Please don't listen to the reviewer who recommends two *chain* restaurants instead of this kooky, eclectic, awesome restaurant tucked away on 9th street. I can't think of a better place to grab a steak burrito at 1:30 in the morning, when…

Bland Mexican food, Watered down salsa by gsharp247 on 9/11/2007 via Citysearch

Bland, uninteresting flavors catered to an audience unaccustomed to real Mexican food. I grew up in New Mexico and Los Angeles, so I know Mexican food and this place leaves much to be desired. Aside from that, the tables and floors were…

I'm missing why it's supposed to be so good by tdotson on 5/21/2007 via Citysearch

We went to Cosmic Cantina for the first time today. I expected it to be kind of a dump and it was, and that's not a "charming, fun" dump, just a plan, dark space, although it was late afternoon and desolate. Staff were not friendly.…

best burritos in NC by zdevil on 4/13/2007 via Citysearch

a Durham classic. not to be missed. I think the veggie burritos are the best. don't go for grande unless you're sharing with 3 people.

GREAT Food, but watch out for the flies by chrisve on 2/21/2007 via Citysearch

GREAT Food-- I recommend getting it to go because the building is a dump and the restaurant is a fly trap. Flies and all, it's still worth it.

FROM TJ ALL THE WAY TO DURHAM by lala146 on 11/19/2006 via Citysearch

THIS IS A VERY SIMPLE CANTINA, L- BACK. NO NEED TO GET ALL DRESSED UP. CASUAL\r APPLYS HERE. THE FOOD IS ALWAYS FRESH. I HAVE EATEN HERE AT LEAST A DOZEN TIMES,\r AND NEVER ONCE HAVE I EVER BEEN DISAPPOINTED. THE PORTIONS ARE HARDY,…

Yummy burritos! by llooper on 11/9/2006 via Citysearch

I've been to the Cosmic Cantina a couple of times now, and enjoyed my veggie burritos a lot each time! They even madethem without the tortilla for me the second time, in an effort to save a few calories. The prices are good for the amount…

A Durham experience you can't miss by simul on 9/8/2006 via Citysearch

Cosmic Cantina turns out consistent delicous food at great prices. Combine that with a funky open mic Lounge, an outdoor patio, a few beers and some interesting conversation.

Amazing Burrito's, Fun Hangout by alisongreenwood on 8/31/2006 via Citysearch

I absolutely love Cosmic Cantina whether it's 2pm or 3:30am. I used to take my parents and visiting friends there all the time and everyone has loved it. It does get crowded a peak hours so go for a later lunch/early dinner at like…

durham gem by hdevil on 8/13/2006 via Citysearch

cosmic has a suprisingly large mix of delicious, cheap food. the burritos are huge, the quesadeas gooey and wonderful, the nachos are loaded fabulously. my favorite are the salads- huge mixes of the grilled chicken or steak, fresh beans,…
