Taqueria La Vaquita or "The Cow Store" as it is affectionately called, is well-known for the bovine statue that adorns its roof. But it's famous around these parts for its delicious Mexican food and beverages. They have a broad selection of tacos and meat options, cooked to perfection.

I visited this place while in Durham for the weekend, and this place was delicious!! Pulling up, I was a little skeptical. Visually, it wasn't what I imagined, but damn was it good. We ordered our food and didn't have to wait long to get it. The price was great and the food was amazing. Would highly recommend.

The tastiest tacos I've had in Durham yet. My favorite trinity of cabeza, tripa, and lengua were cooked well and flavorful.
They are made to order, but well worth the wait.

One of the very best Mexican restaurants in the triangle. Tons of options and everything is high quality, authentic (as far as I can tell), and delicious. Service is fast and friendly. Outdoor seating only and you can find many street food style options that are less common in typical Mexican restaurants. An all time favourite of mine.

Great little Mexican food joint with outdoor seating! Its really cute and they have a large menu. I think my tinga de pollo burrito was about $11/12 and it was great!

This is a good fast lunch option. It’s window service and picnic tables only. The food was good. We had very high expectations based on reviews and recommendations. We will need to go back to try other things to really give it a fair review. The burrito was good and so were the papusas.

I have been wanting to stop by. The place is always busy looking so I knew it would be good. Had a couple tacos and will be back! I like the menu options and frankly the fact that you can order single items is real nice!

This place slaps. I love their creamy chicken platter. They used to have a poor health rating, but they've since improved it to an A last time I went.
I've had the quesa birria tacos which had really yummy consume, but I prefer the platter more.
