Yummmy so good. Definitely check this place out if you love authentic Mexican food. Servers are very kind and attentive, I'll be going back for the service and the food. Be prepared to spend some money though this place is expensive. read more

Really delicious food. The enchilada with Dungeness crab is super good. Yummy margaritas as well. Not a cheap Mexican restaurant but worth the extra buck. You can split entrees and its still plenty of food. read more

Diego's Spirited Kitchen - Enchilada with Dungeness crab - New American Near Me - Redmond, Oregon

Love the food and ambience. Reasonable price.. amazing staff. Carne asada and pork osuboco is amazing

I travel to the Redmond area about once a month. Rarely do I pass through town without eating at Diego's. The food is always great. The service is always great as well, but last Tuesday it was exceptional. Wil, one of the bartenders, was our server, he was as good as it gets. I am in margarita fan, he makes the best. read more

Good food good service. I have been going here off and on since they opened and have not been disappointed.

Nice little place in the heart of downtown Redmond. I stopped in between the lunch and dinner rushes so it was a little slower than usual and not very lively, but I didn't expect it to be at that hour. Still had good service and a great seat right by the window to see a bit more of downtown during my visit. Menu has a lot of options and looks like it changes fairly frequently. I had the Tex Mex Egg Rolls as an appetizer and brisket for an entree. Maybe it was just the combination of the two, but the sauce with the brisket after the egg rolls was just too much for me, and the meat was a little overdone. In the end I probably would have been fine with the egg rolls as a meal - they were that good AND that filling. I'd definitely stop back in again the next time I'm in town! read more

Food was delicious, service was good. They were super busy, but service was still great. Will definitely go back!

Amazing food and service. Carne asada and seafood enchiladas were amazing. Service was prompt with personality.

Good for dates! Great cocktails. Delicious and unique appetizers. Good plates. Cute atmosphere. One of the best restaurants in redmond.

One word...CARNITAS! If you are a fan of carnitas AND fajitas, you will not be disappointed. Carnitas are served over a sizzling plate of onions and peppers. Delicious! read more

We Always have fantastic service, food & drinks! It feels like we're spending time with great friends every time we visit.

Excellent food and service! I enjoy eating here for lunch and dinner. This is one of my favorite places to eat in Redmond.

I got enchiladas with steak & they were some of the best enchiladas I've ever had. Both the mild & spicy salsa is delicious.

The food here is just Way over priced for what it is. Second time here the salsa tastes like Pace mixed with marinara sauce the Ceasar salad is literally one of those salad in a bags. They're frozen vegetables are about what you would expect from a fire camp. Just not that impressed. read more

Diego's is an awesome restaurant, probably my favorite in redmond. All their food is amazing and they're super fun. They have lots of variety and are helpful and try to seat everyone quickly. I ordered a quesadilla once and another time the seafood pasta which was phenomenal. Also try ordering a lava flow nonalcoholic... so good!! read more

Great combo plates. High quality food. The staff is nice and they give you all the salsa you want.

Wonderful place, marvelous food, lovely staff. All good but highly recommend the seafood soup. What more do you need?

Good food and great margaritas! It can get busy so I recommend planning ahead. If you get a chance to chat with the owner, Pablo is a pretty friendly guy too! read more

Get the pork shank dish. Oh my goodness! I've been several times and am never disappointed. End the night with the desert cocktails. YUM! read more

As visitors from Carlsbad, California, my wife, daughter and I identified Diego's Spirited Kitchen as the place to go in Redmond. We have had the opportunity to try wonderful restaurants domestically and abroad, and we were absolutely shocked to find this gem in Central Oregon. It was so good, we went back the next night to continue the experience. This is something we have done only once before in all of our travels....it was in Paris in 2004....because we like to explore and find new culinary experiences. But Diego's broke that 16 year streak. Here's why. The food and the service. While most restaurants do the same old same old, Diego's takes a recipe and creates something different and unique. On our first visit, we asked our waiter, Roberto, about his recommendations. He recommended the Pork Osso Bucco and the Famous Mexican Pork Carnitas. Because I'm a fan of Chicken Mole, he recommended that too. That's what I ordered, my wife got the Pork Osso Bucco and my daughter wanted the seafood tacos. All were gourmet heaven. So was the Creole Barbecue Shrimp appetizer. After we left, we kept thinking about Roberto's "second course" meal....the Pork Carnitas! The first course was the night you had it in the restaurant; the second course was taking the left overs...and there were plenty...and making carnitas and scrambled eggs the next morning. So, we came back the next night for the pork carnitas. They, too, were heaven. The first and second course! My wife and I split them while our daughter ordered the Tostada Shrimp Ceviché. We kept raving about how fabulous everything was. Our experience the second night was the same as the first night. Excellent. Food was excellent. Their recipes were excellent. And Roberto was excellent. And, they were COVID compliant! We now understand why Diego's comes up first on Yelp reviews. We cannot wait to go back to experience something very special. Thanks to owners Pablo and Maribel....and to Roberto....for giving us something special. And chef Luis who knows how to put it all together! read more

Overall our impression was that this food was overpriced and suboptimal. Steak burrito was good as well as the quesadilla. But dinner shrimp plate was awful, tough and over cooked, tasted like oily rubber and definitely not worth the $. We got takeout so can't speak to the ambience. read more

Always a go to when I'm in Redmond for work. Excellent upscale food in a variety of styles, don't be afraid to order whatever piques your fancy because I promise it will be delicious. As I said to the bartender tonight "I've never had a bad meal yet" to which he replied "it won't be tonight either". He tells the truth, because the next dish on the menu I tried was just a fire as the first time I came. Absolutely do not miss the fresh margarita, they squeeze the limes for every single one as they make it. And for food do not skip the coconut prawns app, the carnitas (if it's not world famous it should be) and any of the specialties. I've been upset the last six months because it's a thirty minute wait, but I promise it is 100%worth every second. read more

Awesome service and great tasting food. The menu is extensive and the cocktails are great.

Good food, great service, large portions and all comes a bit pricy which usually stops me going in as often as I'd like too

So this was an amazing experience. Flew in late, got there at 935pm and they close at 10. Wil was amazing as he got us in that late and suggested THE BEST margarita ever. Then Lorenzo served us some of the best seafood Mexican food dishes we've ever eaten. Highly recommend! read more

A very pleasant experience; no complaints here. The restaurant is clean and well-decorated, service is exceptionally friendly and fast, and prices are reasonable. The menu is also varied and includes more interesting options like burritos with a variety of seafood in them. I ordered the Arroz con Pollo, since I'd heard it's a popular dish, and it was delicious. Unfortunately I had almost filled up on the fresh, warm chips and salsa on the table! Also tried some of the black beans and green rice, which were both tasty. This place has good-quality food at fair prices and a relaxing experience. Check it out. read more

Love this place. Service was GREAT. Chips and salsa were awesome. My absolute favorite was the "Pollo con Chipotle" if was off the hook, I haven't stopped thinking about it for two weeks. Tender, juicy chicken bites in a slightly spicy mushroom cream sauce. My drink glass was always full. read more

We were happy to find a really tasty vegan option here - the veggie burrito. Well made with fresh and not overcooked veggies. Also, really nice servers. read more

Great food, good service and many, many menu options. Wouldn't exactly call it true Mexican food, but rather Mexican-inspired. Lots of "spirited" options, too, but only by the glass. Try the Tex Mex egg rolls and table side guacamole to start. The pork osso buco was a big hit with a couple members of our party. The Acapulco Burrito could seriously feed three. I liked the crab enchiladas, but would order something else next time. Opt for the back patio, especially if you have a group. read more

Fantastic flavorful food! Totally blown away by the depth of flavor in their dishes that take the traditional Mexican fare to another level. Was so pleasantly surprised by the friendly staff, post COVID, and the level of service, and then top it with great cuisine it's a refreshing reminder of what pride in your craft is all about!!! read more

Best Mexican food in Redmond, maybe all of Central Oregon. Huge menu with lots of choices, friendly staff and great atmosphere. I recommend this place to everyone. read more

Rude service and multiple hairs found in our food! When we pointed out the hair in the food to our server he didn't even apologize and/or acknowledge that this was unacceptable. Truly unbelievable and disappointing experience considering we drove quite a distance based on our resort's recommendation. We will never go back. read more

The food was delicious and the service was excellent. One of the best Mexican Food restaurants we have eaten at.

They served me an excellent flat iron steak... One of the best I've had... On top of an equally wonderful salad. Sadly I decided I need to give up on blue cheese... It was great quality dressing and blue cheese. While I would not order this as presented again... I would order it and swap out the dressing and cheese, which they will gladly do. read more

Great Food! Every time I come through Redmond from Portland I have to stop here. The Gordo Loco Burrito is my favorite!!

The Drinks at Diego's are fantastic. The food, well, some items I like, and others are a bad match for my taste. The salsa, and freshly made guacamole are great. The Quesadillas, especially the spinach, and the mushroom are also great. However they are huge, and the veggies are sauteed in quite a bit of butter. The entrees I've tried are also huge! I have also found the entrees to be heavy, and cooked with entirely too much butter. The food is fairly pricey. We dined here on New Year's Eve and spent $150 pre-tip, between dinner and margaritas for 2. I did not like my entree of steak, prawns, beans and veggies. My husband thought his Rib Eye was okay. I will be back to Diego's, but I'll stick to cocktails and appetizers. The service is great, and also kid friendly. 2016 #3 read more

LOVE! I was so happy that during this trip we found a few restaurants in Central Oregon that did not specialise in food poisoning. It was a Friday night so we had to wait about ahalf hour for a table because wow is this place packed! We were starving so we started with the creole shrimp appetizer and the guac they make at your table. Both were amazing - no joke. A few bites of that shrimp and you will want to lick the plate clean to get every ounce of the sauce they use. I had a cup of their clam chowder which was unique - but very good. I then had a rib eye steak and could barely eat anything since I was now full on appetizers and chowder. I reheated the next day for lunch though and it was still fantastic. Their portions are pretty big and really reasonably priced. You also cannot beat the variety. There is Mexican food and American and pasta...a little bit of everything really. I also ordered this blackberry drink made with blackberry puree and blackberry vodka - holy wow...get that seriously...in your mouth....you will thank me. read more

Happened across this place thanks to Yelp reviewers. Located in the cute little downtown area of Redmond on 6th street. A menu mixed with Mexican and American. Burrito and a burger. I had a combination plate with a chile relleno and ground beef tostada. This is the chile relleno that I've been looking for ever since I moved here from San Diego 8 years ago. Just how I remembered them. My partner had the carne asada and declared it the best carne asada he had ever had. Served with green rice and black refried beans. I'm a pinto refried bean kinda gal, but thought the black beans were a close second. Salsas made on site. The low heat salsa was fresh and tasty, but mix it with a little of their high octane salsa and you've got the perfect combination. So, that's what we did, mixed them for the chips and for our entrees. One tasty margarita shared between us. Had it not been lunch, I definitely would have gone ahead and had one all to myself. Looked to a local lunch favorite for worker's in the area which I think is a good indicator. The nicest of staff. Quick service. When asked why they didn't open a restaurant in Bend, the reply "too many restaurants in Bend". Our loss is Redmond's gain. Great discovery. We'll be back. read more

The carne asada was the best I've ever had! Seriously. My whole family had a delicious meal. Highly recommend.

Super delicious little Mexican spot that's great if you're in Bend waiting for a flight! It's under 10 minutes from the airport and has a nice casual vibe. It's definitely pricey--a little too pricy in my opinion, but Redmond doesn't offer a ton of options if you want to be able to sit down and experience good service (they definitely have great service) and good food. The food was good and filling with good size portions. Our appetizer of Creole BBQ Shrimp was just a wee bit overcooked, and coming from Charleston, I'm a pretty big proponent of cooking fresh shrimp JUST enough so that you can taste the sweetness of the meat. And so that it doesn't start approaching the consistency of rubber. The sauce on the shrimp, however, was so rich and delicious. I could eat that sauce on a lot of things. Drinks are pretty pricey here, so if you want cocktails with your dinner be prepared to spend at fair amount. Food was pretty good, but the price doesn't really match the experience. I don't regret eating there, but I do find myself thinking of other meals that I paid less for and enjoyed more. read more
