    That fish may have been a state record sized catch! I would have liked to have had it mounted and hanging on the wall. Too late now. An amazing authentic Mexican restaurant that serves flavorful plates generously heaped with delicious food. The restaurant is very popular. The little building packs to capacity at prime dining hours. However, Grab and Go. If you are in a hurry or just want a snack, out front a lady is stationed at a cart selling Elote and Mexican energy bars. For my wife, a massive single order of Aloha Fajitas: Beef, pineapple, onion, bell pepper, Bacon! jalapenos and cheese. I had the Mojarra, a trophy size fish. Perfectly crisp on the outside, moist, mild flavored fish on the inside. Check the pictures, especially my choice for today's table top advertisement winner, "Yo Mamma." Villegas has some of the best and most authentic Mexican food in Oklahoma! This is some damn good food!

    Leftovers from a single order of Juan's fajitas.

    The. Absolute. Best. Fajitas. Anywhere. I can't tell you how many people I've told about this place. Without a doubt, a must stop anytime we are in the area. Soooo good!!!

    Probably in the top three Mexican food experiences ever. Service was out of this world. The Juan fajitas were probably the best I've ever had and there was enough to feed two of us and take home a full to go box still so don't get the double order. We will definitely be back. Queso and salsa and chips were also excellent!

    Beef enchilada, beef taco, rice and beans & white queso......very good. Best rice & beans I've ever had

    We got there on a Sunday around 12:30. Super busy. Short wait. Servers were very friendly and sufficient. The food is very good....salsa just ok. Their refried beans and rice is the best I've ever had. 4 stars bc good salsa is everything

    Chicken and beef fajitas for one (fed two of us though)

    The best Mexican food! One plate fed both my husband and I. Gauc was so fresh and salsa and chips were great just a tad spicy! Service was spot on as well! 10/10! Wish I lived closer to come all the time!

    Chicken Flautas

    Food was fantastic! Probably the best chicken flautas. Most places just boil their chicken. This place clearly grilled their chicken and then chopped it up. So much flavor added this way! We also got queso, enchiladas verdes, a slice of tres leches and 5 sopapillas for $56 + tip. All great! Servers were very on top of things and fast service. Highly recommend for authentic Mexican restaurant!

    First thing first the food was GOOD! Service was EXCELLENT! but the restaurant needs a good cleaning the menus were nasty with leftover salsa and food, also we sat in the back corner and I watched their dishpit guy wash out a big grey trash can out in the middle of lunch in the sink.

    I'm so excited we found this hidden gem. The food was delicious the service was outstanding. Haziel was our waiter and he was so attentive and had a great personality. This is a small restaurant and very popular so you may have to wait a little for a table but it's worth the wait. We are sharing this spot with all our family and friends.

    The best fajitas I've ever had. The salsa, and queso was out of this world. The service was quick and kind. Will definitely be back.

    Just had lunch here on Saturday. It was busy and the food was very good. I wish I lived closer so I could try more things on their menu.

    Authentic Mexican in Durant, Oklahoma?! Check out: El Kanelo!…read more My wife and I were in Durant, Oklahoma, attending an early evening Graduation at Southeastern Oklahoma State (Go Savage Storm!). We got to town mid-afternoon and had worked up an appetite chatting about Tacos and Shrimp dishes on our 2 hour drive up from Dallas, Texas. We spotted an unassuming Mexican cafe called El Kanelo (Cinnamon) on 729 N. First Street, and stopped in, not confident we would like the place & food. We were swiftly seated in a large booth, ordered water with lemmon (for which we weren't charged) and were brought crispy chips and fresh, home-made, chunky red salsa. The decor was traditional Mexican with dark wooden benches and tables adorned with colorful Mexican pottery back boards. My wife ordered the Steak (strips) Fajita dish ($15.99) and I ordered the Camarones Al Mojo De Ajo (suateed shrimp in garlic, olive oil and citrus juice) ($15.59). Both (large) dishes were brought out within 15 minutes sizzling hot, with richly seasoned aroma of lightly burned peppers. My shrimp was tender, not overcooked and smothered in richly flavored garlic butter. My wife's ample steak fajita's were served on a bed of onions, bell peppers (paprika) and piping hot yellow squash slices. Here is our verdict: Ambiance & Service: 3.5 stars Food Presentation & Quality: 4 stars Food Texture & Taste: 5 stars Quantity & Value: 4.5 stars Overall, an exceptional experience. We each left with a to-go box filled to the rim! We are already planning to go back this summer. Put El Kanelo in Durant, Oklahoma (10 minutes North of the Texas state line) on your road trip list!

    The food was much better than the Mexican restaurants in the area. We will be coming back…read moreThe chili relano was very nice as was the tamale. I had the combination meal and they substituted the rice with refried beans. Personal preference Service was excellent and the margaritas were not as sweet as you sometimes get, so thinking they use a different mix They were okay and would consider the pitcher option next time The Ambiance was typical Mexican restaurant decor. Once seated hard to tell one from the other but it works. Will be back
