El Pastor del Gorbea has a practical setting near Durango's industrial area, serving traditional Spanish and some international home-style dishes. The weekday set menus cater to local workers, while weekends bring a wider vegan and vegetarian selection including vegan moussaka, mole, and rice dishes, with vegan-friendly desserts like rice pudding and chocolate soy yogurt. The attentive owner explains each dish clearly, and pricing is affordable, with a vegetarian/vegan set menu priced higher than the carnivore option.
