    El D's is a home run every time. We make a dedicated trip to Delaware at least twice a year when the craving hits. El Diablo isn't reinventing the wheel, they're just doing it better. From the pinto beans cooked in bacon to the array of delicious sauces to the welcoming, accommodating staff, El Diablo's leaves you dreaming of your next visit. I always opt for the bowl. By the time it's stacked with my favorite ingredients, I swear it weighs five pounds. The chicken is tasty, but I LOVE the braised short rib. The ability to customize your meal makes it a fun, inclusive stop for all appetites. This location is particularly spacious and clean, and the parking is plentiful. One caveat- as of March 2023, this strip mall is going through external renovations. El D's might be hard to find, but I promise it's open- even if it doesn't appear to be. You can also order ahead for pick-up, which is recommended if you're in a hurry at a peak time.

    This place is so fire and blows Chipotle or any competitors out of the water. Whenever I'm driving through DE I make sure to stop because it is that good.

    I would have given this place 4 stars because it is really good! I got the short rib burrito bowl with cilantro rice, pico, corn, pepper jack cheese etc. This place was packed and I was trying to pick up lunch before heading home and getting on Teams for my work call. I rushed out and didn't check what they put in my bag. I came home and got the tiny steak burrito that they made for my husband (I picked up food for him), chips but they forgot to put my meal in there! I trusted this place to make sure everything is put in there before leaving but now this just fortifies my need to double check everything. My husband ended up calling them since I was about to be on my call and they said they would give him a free meal when he came in. He went over there and they remade my order (not sure what happened with my bowl? I guess an employee ate it instead). And he asked for his burrito to also be made for the inconvenience of driving back. Luckily they agreed but really? Sigh. So this is why they will just be 3 stars in my book. Good food. Always double check your orders before you leave this place! Especially during lunch rush.

    The food is good and fresh! Pretty comparable to Chipotle. I took one star off because for the amount your paying they were very stingy with the portion sizes. I had to ask for extra rice because it barely filled the bowl.

    MAKE SURE YOU ARE CHARGED CORRECTLY. My situation was fixed but a pain in the ass to type in my entire credit card number, expiration date, zip code for a refund. And if I mistyped a number, then no refund I ordered the short ribs and a pork burrito. And was charged for 2 steaks. The difference is pennies but will add up in the long run. Other than that, the food is absolutely amazing. The line is almost always at the door. The staff knows what sauces/toppings to pair with what type of meat. I was in heaven when I ate my burrito. It is made to order/chipotle/subway styled. The tortilla is so big.. the brown rice, beans, meat options, kale, lettuce, sour cream, pineapple habanero, corn salsa, sauces are fresh, constantly running out of items, and replenishing them. Everything was so good and the staff there are constantly hustling. The burrito was so big and filled that it ripped when being rolled.

    This place is Fire! I'd passed it multiple times decided to give it a go. They don't just do burritos. They do burritos, bowls, and salads. They had seven different meat choices. You can add guacamole, chorizo, or bacon. Choice of white or brown rice, choice of black or pinto beans. Cheeses, pico de gallo, pineapple habanero, onions, cilantro, jalapeño, mushrooms, and peppers. Honestly they had a lot more toppings than I got. They had tons of sauces. Sodas, teas, and juices. Chips and guacamole, or pico, or queso. The picture doesn't do justice. They claimed the pineapple habanero to be spicy. But cmon this is Delaware. It was on the low medium side for me. It was still excellent! Don't pass up this place you won't be disappointed.

    My go-to burrito spot for my family. Great selection! Friendly, fast and overall efficient service. Adequate prices because you're gonna have some left over all your stomach will be hurting. The portions are generous. You can custom make your burrito or get one of their prescribed creations listed on the board behind the line. Their burrito creations as per the customers wishes our machine like. They wrap the thickest burritos and overstuff them to your liking. I seen them make quesadillas or just some flourless tortillas in a bowl. You can literally get whatever you want from steak to chicken, fish, or just a veggie bowl. This is a great establishment and I visited both locations in northern Delaware. I highly recommend you pay them a visit if you haven't done Diablo yet. #HastyFoodiePick

    Insane Depth and layers of rice bowl

    It's just the best. From scratch is such an accurate mantra. Flavor explosion you've never had in a burrito. Burrito bowl is so filling and can stretch for a couple meals at least. BBQ sauce is great. Sherry onions are my favorite. The steak has a char to it. Any protein would be great though. Pineapple salsa is always so fresh tasting.

    Seating area!

    Diablo is amazing!!! It has always been exceptionally. We love the Lime Grilled Steak burrito. The chips, the Guacamole, cheese sauce, and mushrooms are all amazing!!

    Ciani was so helpful! She took her time and helped me with samples and meat/fish options.

    Burritos are hands down the best I've had from a place like this. The amount of protein you get is amazing and they wrap it so every bite has a little of everything. The service is always top tier. And the selection of hot sauces are out of this world. Only issue is the queso is probably one of my least favorites of all places.

    Awesome flavors, fresh salsa, large portions for the price. I would say this takes Chipotle and raises it a level with flavors and options!

I had one of their burritos, which was absolutely packed with flavor, and paired it with their hand-mixed drinks -- perfection in every sip and bite.

They asked if we wanted to change anything with the order, and then brought our drinks out with the food following shortly after, all after their official business hours! The tortillas were handmade to order, and everything was delicious. Unfortunately we don't have pictures of the food because we ate so fast, but we had the tacos de carne asada, pollo asado y al pastor. The rice and beans that came with each plate were also abundant and tasty! Wonderful service and would definitely visit again when back in Wilmington!
