Good service. Employees were polite and helpful. I ordered a chicken bowl without rice. Something in the bowl was really salty. It came with chips. It was slow at the ti.e we went so it was quiet in the restraunt. The restraunt was clean. I had to mix the sweet tea with unsweetened because the sweet tea was too sweet. About half of their sodas were out, that is why I drank the tea. I might go back. read more

I didn't know what Diablo's was until I moved to Aiken. I finally had the time to try it out because I am a huge fan of Tex-Mex. I ordered a bowl (it stays consistent wherever I go) with: white rice, black beans, chicken, lettuce, cheese, pico, sour cream, cilantro, fresh jalapeños, and chipotle ranch. If you've ever been to Moe's or Surcheros, it's very similar and they also give you chips and salsa like them. I'm giving them 3 stars because I would rather pay $12 somewhere else like Chipotle or Surcheros. I wish there was more flavor and wished the salsas tasted more distinct, specifically with the spicy and mild. I think you should go try it out regardless, but I just prefer more flavor and less "loose" rice. read more

How do you run out of cilantro rice at 7:30pm on a Saturday? Normally lots of ingredients that are good quality and flavor. A little on the expensive side. read more

Just left at 8:30, doors were locked with open sign on, and door says open until 9:00... very disappointed!!!

This has become a weekly lunch stop for me. Delicious no matter what Ive had from there, and the staff is gracious!

When you need something quick that will hit the spot... this is your stop. I usually go for the burrito bowl, I think I may have gotten the taco salad a time or two. Chicken is my go-to meat, but I have gone veggie before. Haven't tried the tofu. Make sure you get a Chipotle Ranch cup for your chips... you're welcome! read more

Food had that fresh flavor we all look for. This staff was very accommodating and thoughtful. The salsa verde was on point this may be my new favorite location ! read more

This place is disgusting nasty!!! Food counter was so bad. Food was smudged on counter where they dip your food. The Floor in the back, where you can see, was filthy! Trash food all over the floor. I love diablos but will NEVER come back in here. North August is way better and cleaner. And I'm not from north augusta. The guy serving up your food never spoke... looked mad at the world. Over all BAD experience!!! Really sad!!! read more

Pretty good Mexican grill. Enjoyed the queso and chips. Nice workers, clean atmosphere.

Portion size isn't adequate for the price. Service is excellent. Place is clean. Music is too loud. I don't recommend. I left very hungry and not fulfilled. read more

Poor service from the prep line as they're off doing other things and lately getting kids portion for full price. Know times are tough, but seriously... read more

Diablo's Southwest Grill - Nacho plate to go - Mexican Near Me - Aiken, South Carolina

Not good at all! This is the lowest quality of fast food Tex-mex. The food is never fresh & the queso is gelatinous and that's weird. Overall I will not eat here again. read more

Excellent food. We ordered recently thru DoorDash delivery, and had an epic meal. We have been longtime customers of Diablos. My husband was bummed last year when Diablo's changed their meat portion policy, especially since he gets the quesadilla with only chicken and pico de gallo. And we had a weird experience with one of the employees that last time we were in the restaurant, wherein she insisted that he would want "extra" meat, and when he declined, she rolled her eyes or was somehow put out by it, and she did not even spread the small amount of chicken on the quesadilla. So, that was last Fall or something. At the time, we gave Diablos a two star review, and had not been back since. Well, anyway, we upped the review again, as we were very pleased with our recent order. read more

Iggy and I visited Diablo's last week and were pleasantly surprised! The concept is very similar to that of Chipotle but I found the staff to be friendlier and seemingly happier. The food is tasty and plentiful! read more

Tiny portions for the price. Very dirty restaurant. Will not go to this location again.

Just 100% got ignored going through the line while attempting to order. So f*ck me, I guess. And when it was brought to their attention by my friend there was no attempt to correct their rudeness.. Won't be coming back. PERIOD. read more

If you have ever eaten at Chipotle, or Moes, this place is very comparable. You walk in and pick burrito, quesadilla, bowl, nachos, salad or 3 taco, then pick your meat and fixins. Personally, I favor the flavors here better than Chipotle or Moes and I love me some Moes! I was pleased with how quick the line moved, the open table for me to sit down at and how the staff was very friendly. This was a good change of pace from the usual Moes or Chipotle craving. read more

Diablo's Southwest Grill - Chicken bowl with rice, beans and fixins! - Mexican Near Me - Aiken, South Carolina

if i could give this place no stars... i would. Horrible meat, barely any rice in the food? Only one kind of rice, I don't understand why Aiken has 2 of these and no chipotle. Let me say this place gives you less rice than chipotle and that is saying something. read more

I visited my parents and we stopped in here for lunch one Sunday. The restaurant was pretty slow, so we didnt have to wait in line very long at all. We decided to get our meals to go so we could eat at home and enjoy a movie. This is sort of a cross over between Moes and Chipotle. They have the lime rice, but they also still have queso. They do have a few things others don't, like a spicy sour cream. The staff were very monotonous and disorganized. As I have mentioned before, if you can't be or fake pleasant most of the time, then you shouldn't work in customer service. As I had never been here before, I had questions and the staff seemed like they couldn't be bothered in giving me some answers. I ended up going with what I know, a pork bowl, with some toppings. In comparison, I like Moe's better (and Chipotle less)- their pork is more moist and their toppings seem a little fresher. That being said, Diablos is on the North Side and Moes is across town, so it's definitely good for your Tex-Mex fix. Get some friendly staff and I don't see why this couldn't be five stars for a good, quick, tex-mex lunch. read more

Food was seasoned well and portions were generous. Staff was attentive and responsive on arrival.

I have several allergies that make it very hard for me to eat out at all, and the Manager (my apologies but I didn't get her name) went waaaaayyyyyy above and beyond to make me feel comfortable. My wife called to inquire about allergens in the menu items for me and the manager wasn't able to answer right away so she took our phone number called the corporate office to verify the ingredients and then called us back! Turns out there was many options available for me and I wouldn't have known that without her phenomenal customer service!!!! So many times servers/managers just shrug their shoulders and say I don't know but that was not the case here. Thank you so much!!!! For anyone with a gluten or dairy allergy this place has many options available for you! read more

Great food and service. The rice protein bowls are delicious. Also the 3 salsas for free at the drink station are wonderful. Plus free chips. A++ read more

This is a favorite lunch spot for me. If you're looking for casual Tex-Mex dining that has better atmosphere than Moes, this is it. There's even charging stations at each booth for your phone. Everything you order comes with the most delicious tortilla chips. I personally always order a side of queso cheese to dip my chips on, which is also excellent. The personalized way you create your own food is awesome and has great choices. Service is mostly attentive. I have had a couple times when I had to stand staring at the associates chat together for several minutes before they even acknowledged I was standing there waiting to be served. read more

Diablo's Southwest Grill - Good food. Favorite lunch spot. - Mexican Near Me - Aiken, South Carolina

This was my second time eating here. I am glad I gave it another chance. Arrived around 4pm on Friday. The guy making the food was friendly and polite. A girl was working the register and she was great, too. I was helped carrying the food to our table. When you order you stand in front of the options and can pick them as you go. Everything was stocked, smelled good and looked fresh. We tried a kids chicken quesadilla and a steak burrito. Both were plenty to eat. The chips and queso were perfect! DELICIOUS!! The rice was sort of mushy and not much flavor but by the time toppings were added the rice blended in and was good. So many employees by 4:25pm were gathered at the register, chit chatting and blocking the entrance/exit of the restrooms. My reason for removing a star. I never like to see this. It is unprofessional. Customers should not hear issues and esp. never need to hear personals about other employees. Customers are paying to enjoy a meal. There is plenty of parking and the restaurant was clean. They have To-Go order forms and you can fax it. This would be a great option for work lunches or big orders. read more

Columbia, SC (Killian Rd location)...If Chipotle and Moe's had a baby and it was a very bad baby... it would be this.. they have things that both Chipotle AND Moe's (bowls, salsa bar, quesadillas, nachos, etc) offer but good LAWD they suck. Super stingy on items.. u literally have 2 ask for extra this and extra that bc everything is a pinch or 1/2 scoop! Maybe Chipotle and Moe's spoiled me and I'm used 2 huge portions but geez Louise at least let it TASTE good. Lines were long and the people training (red shirts) did nothing 2 minimize the lines... just stood around with their hands crossed staring....Not worth the time OR money.... read more

Almost identical to Chipotle, but I think a bit better. The food don't blow me away, but the portion size of my salad was very large and the staff was very friendly. Prices of items are between $7-10. Basically, you pick the type of meal you want (e.g. Burrito, tacos, quesadilla, etc.) and then you go down the line and select what you want in or on top. read more

Ok just another chain restaurant like Moe's southwest grill. So not bad but just starting to eat more hometown restaurants. Just tired of chains read more

My family and I eat at the location in Augusta often, so we decided to try the new Aiken location. It's the same and by the same, I mean great too. My hubby and I had burrito bowls and our little one had a some too. The style is similar to the other location. It has Southwestern flair. I'm sure we'll be back to enjoy more Tex-Mex! read more

We love this place. Quick and reasonable prices. We love the food. The employees have always been very pleasant. The restaurant is clean and so are the bathrooms. Excellent parking too. read more

The food here is so good and always hot (unless it's supposed to be cold) and the employees are always super nice. I go here very regularly because my job is nearby and I have never had a negative experience. If I could give 10 stars I would! read more

Poor experience. Line was back to the door and only person at the front just doing take out orders ignoring the people waiting in line. Waste of 30 minutes during lunch break. I expect better from Diablos. Welcome to Moes! read more

Diablo's is DA BOMB! This particular location has great staff and is always clean. Sometimes it is busier than others so sometimes there is tons of seating while other times you gotta take what you can get, but the food is awesome. I love the chips. I love the tacos. When I first moved to the area, I had never been to Diablo's before so I was a frequent diner (like weekly) the first month or so I lived here. Its freshly made, Tex-Mex in my opinion. Good stuff! read more

DISGUSTING. I went there when they literally had just opened the doors for the day. Visited both augusta, ga locations & the new north augusta locations and absolutely LOVED their food but this Aiken location gave me instant food poisoning. Its been a month since I ate there and my body still doesn't feel the same read more

This place has gone downhill since opening. Portions are smaller and everything is covered in grease. My last time eating in here.

The chip and salsa are so good !@!!!!!!!!!please put a store in VIRGINIA BEACH! !!!!!!

I love Diablos. They have more of a variety or fresh ingredients and you are not paying extra for chips. The salsa bar is great. Atmosphere is casual and the booths even have charging stations. read more

The thing that scared me most was if the food would still have the same consistency as the Augusta location! But this place still has the same awesome vibe as the original spot! Food is the same quality and consistency. Five star rating for the entire Diablos brand and locations! read more

For fast Mexican food this place was delicious! It is set up like Chipotle or Moe's were you choose which form you want like burrito, bowl, salad, nachos etc., then just go down the line and tell them what you want on it. The food has much more flavor than any of the other assembly-line places. The staff was friendly and helpful. I love Moe's and Chipotle but I would choose Diablo over them any day! read more

Food here was alright. First time eating Diablo's was at the Augusta location. I fell in love so I figured the Aiken location would be the same. It wasn't. They weren't too busy. When we walked in two young guys gawked at us! No hello. Nothing. Just stared. I asked one of the guys if they were even open! That turned me off right there. Not welcoming. Thank goodness the workers in Augusta were friendly and answered all our questions since it was out first time. Glad we didn't have to bother these guys since we knew what we wanted. Food here didn't seem as fresh as Augusta Diablo's. read more

The ingredients are still fresh. I think the salad dressing is truly yummy. I usually get a side of guacamole and it is adequate but this time a thimble full of guacamole. My chief complaint is the staff. rude staff members behind the counter - especially the girl behind the cash register - she is extremely sullen. I would rate the food 4 stars staff 2 or less - hence 3 stars read more
