Late post - I wrote this right after eating here on November 22, 2025, but never hit "submit."…read more This place is a true hole-in-the-wall -- literally a converted house on a residential street. GPS gets you close, but it's easy to drive right past. Parking is only two driveway spots plus street parking (there might be a small lot across the street) so plan accordingly if it's busy. Service was genuinely warm and welcoming the moment I walked in, which immediately put me in a good mood. I ordered red chilaquiles with asada, a bowl of menudo, two tacos al pastor, a Mexican Coke, and a Sprite. * Red chilaquiles (Two eggs, fried tortilla chips lathered in red chili, asada(additional cost) side of beans, side of salad; lettuce,tomatoe,avocado): They forgot the asada at first, but fixed it fast and brought the steak on the side--no attitude. The bigger issue was texture--the chips were soggy instead of the usual toasty/crunchy. The sauce started off tasty but got surprisingly bland halfway through; it just didn't have enough depth to keep every bite interesting. * Menudo: Under-seasoned and missing that rich, comforting flavor I love. The bolillo came toasted with butter, which felt totally out of place with the menudo (personal taste, but it didn't work for me). * Tacos al pastor: Hands-down the highlight. Perfectly seasoned, juicy, and everything I want in a street-style taco. Overall, not a bad experience, just inconsistent. The tacos alone are worth coming back for, and the friendly vibe is a big plus. I'd skip the chilaquiles and menudo next time, but I'll definitely return to try more of the "finger food" side of the menu. Solid neighborhood spot with real potential--hope they tighten up the classics!

Okay; they still have a full-fledged Mexican-restaurant menu, and maybe added "taco bar" stuff to it. All I know is that we went there last night and both really enjoyed it. And having a bar with 6 different salsas (?) to try made it a lot more fun! According to our waiter, they sometimes have a lunch buffet on Sundays. Sounds delicious! Original review (El Diablo Mexican Restaurant): If you're in the mood for something different, this is a good option. The menu is filled with choices you wouldn't find at a typical Mexican restaurant. (FYI I LOVE the food at a typical Mexican restaurant, especially Tex-Mex.) I liked my entree, but would probably not get it again. My wife's Vali's Fries were better. The folks working here (owners?) were super friendly, and I would like to see this place succeed.

We came in and they weren't busy. You go to the front and order off the menu. You get a number and they bring the food to your table. We ordered a whole chicken with a couple of sides. Came with tortillas and some really good sauces. Also tried the sweet potato empanada. Everything looked great and generous when it came to the table. When we started to make our tacos, we found the chicken to be kind of dry. It had good flavor, but the white meat was definitely dry. I really liked the flavor of the chicken. The beans were different. They were very loose with a little cheese on top. They tasted good and with the homemade tortilla and chicken was OK. I liked all the salsas, they were definitely homemade. The Green was my favorite. The empanada crust was crispy and tasty. The inside was a beef make sure with some pieces of sweet potato. Not what I expected but I enjoyed it. This place is really cute. Right when you come in, you feel like you're in Mexico. bright, colorful tiles, and Spanish decor They have self serve water. I like this feature because I am a water drinker. The receptacles were very cool looking. Really cold water too. We had a couple of beers which were nice and cold. The owners were very nice and gave us extra cheese and sour cream when I asked for it. I definitely will come back and give this another try.

The majority of chips were good, but some were overdone and had a burnt taste. My #10 Beef Enchilada Plate was good (standard Colorado Mexican fare). The refried beans had good texture and weren't runny, as some other local restaurants serve them. I didn't particularly appreciate that the pork green chili came with an unmentioned upcharge (likely stated on the menu somewhere, but it took me by surprise). And then we come to my wife's #5 Smothered Burrito Plate with one chicken and one beef burrito. Everything good, except she really, really, REALLY didn't like the beef.
