The burrito was very very good. It was loaded with everything I asked, and very heavy and filling. A very good deal for the price. The interior is simple and tasteful, and any employees were pleasant and efficient. I'm looking forward to returning. read more

El Diablo doesn't disappoint. I had a burrito the other day and it was 1000 times better than the one I ordered recently at La Tolteca, and far better than anything I've ever had at Chipotle. The service was great too. Also if you are picking up food from there everyone tipping a dollar or two would have a significant positive effect on the workers than it will hurt your wallet. read more

The food was kind of mid; I had pretty high expectations going into this place, for a lot of my friends recommended it under the premise it was chipotle on steroids, and also as a Delaware native, I felt that I had to try this classic spot. I ordered an adobo chicken bowl, and found it rather average in flavor. There was a lot going on in the bowl, to the point where I couldn't find chicken in the bowl. The benefit over chipotle is that you can choose from a variety of sauces, but I feel that the bowl itself was inferior in terms of heftiness. The prices were good, the store was clean, and the service was very nice. The food just doesn't come to par with chipotle, which is in the same price range. read more

El Diablo Burritos - Mexican Near Me - Wilmington, Delaware

Customer service is excellent, burritos are delicious. Lots of selections to choose from.

Quality food and fast, polite service. Burritos, salads and tacos are very good and fresh.

The food is always pretty good and my go to over any chain like Chipotle or Moe's, however even though I go sparingly the service is always the same. It feels like the workers aren't happy to be working there and have no desire to to be serving you. I know we all have bad days at work but the vibe is always unwelcoming regardless of what time it is or how friendly/polite you are to the workers. It's disappointing and a big reason why I don't frequent the spot as much as I'd like. read more

This is the first time at this location. Now that I know where it is, we will come here more often. This location is clean and friendly as well as closer. I love there bowls and the vast variety of itens to add. They beat the socks off other burrito establishments that I have visited. read more

El Diablo Burritos - Awsome burrito bowl. - Mexican Near Me - Wilmington, Delaware

Let me start off by saying the food was good... But the second we walked in, it was very clear that one of the employees getting ready to serve us, was VERY unhappy that we walked in at 8:50. When yelp and online says they close at 10. The same employee huffed and puffed and even said to another employee "Do you see these people walk in at 8:50." She frustratingly asked us how many orders we had and when we said 3 she rolled her eyes. We were made to feel very unwelcome. Disappointing because we do like the food. Will not be going back there. read more

love this place but the person who greeted me today called me "he" twice in front of the whole restaurant when calling for my to go order. im not "he". another employee was nice enough to recognize what was happening and smiled at me, but def hurt read more

El diablo is definitely overrated, the food here is average and I dont consider it anything special like people make it out to be. Compared to the national food chains it's better then some but not as good as others. It definitely outranks chipotle, freebirds, moe's. Although I believe Qdoba is still better. Also with the additional cost, it cost more then the chains as well. The service is typically whatever. Although I like the chipotle ranch and the sauces and stuff like that. The chicken is also good, but the rice is a little flavorless and not cooked as soft as typical rice. So you will get that hard bite of rice each time. Overall they have more exotic options like mahi mahi. Although if you want a chicken bowl or burrito I just recommend to visit one of the national chains and itll be just as good and cheaper then visiting el diablo. read more

Great local eatery. Natural and some free-range meats or veggie options if that's your thing. Place is always clean, moderately priced, friendly staff. You build your own burritos, salad or similar Mexican-type fare. Ingredients always fresh and you customize your order. read more

Man I love El Diablo. We go there a few times a month and I always find myself ordering the same thing. The citrus pork burrrito with black beans and no rice, mild pico, cheddar jack cheese, lettuce, pinapple habanero salsa, sherried onions, cilantro, and shallot lime vinagrette. It's so good. My wife loves the short rib burrito with the goat cheese, mild salsa, and pinto beans. And no rice. Everything is extremely fresh and high quality. The meats are all antibiotic free and the beef is grass fed. It's an upscale, Americanized, trendy kind of spot, not at all greasy or dumpy like some more "authentic" taco joints. And you won't get sick like at Chipotle. read more

See all

The food is ok but, this restaurant deserves a one star rating due to over-pricing, gouging customers for extras without warning and employee attitude. Next time I want fast affordable Mexican food, I'll drive the extra couple of miles to Chipotle. A steak Burrito bowl is now $13.50 and they charged extra for mushrooms that used to be included. A pint of guacamole is now $11. Yikes!!! The chips were still affordable at $1.50 but they ran out. I got their 15 minutes before closing and they were already packing up. I commented to the manager about the lack of chips and the recent price increases and I got pure attitude back. Staff also failed to mention that mushrooms were extra when I added them to a burrito. The food was ok, but being ripped off and the employee attitude left a bad taste in my mouth. Never again! read more

I sincerely wish an El Diablo would open in Tampa, FL. I have always been a Chipotle fan, but Chipotle doesn't even compare to El Diablo. El Diablo is always fresh and the employees are always friendly. Anytime I'm in Wilmington, I make sure to go here. Almost everything on their menu is gluten free. I highly recommend the steak and mushrooms, goat cheese, and shallot lime vinaigrette. Basically a local foodie fast food joint. Ain't nothing better. read more

Always fresh and always good. Service is friendly & quick. Low prices for really good, healthy food. read more

El Diablo Burritos - Chicken Salad - Mexican Near Me - Wilmington, Delaware

We LOVE El Diablo. It's a Wilmington staple. Where else can you get goat cheese and sriracha on a burrito?? No where! Pineapple salsa is amazing, so is the sauce with the walnuts in it (can't remember the name). Staff is usually friendly and quick. I enjoy the soda fountain options here and also their logo. It's cute. Also, chips and queso are good. Brisket and fish are my favorites for burritos from here. Highly recommend. read more

This place is amazing and doesn't pinch on the food. The service is great and very welcoming. So glad my family and I found this GEM!!! Pray they keep up the great work read more

A great place to grab a burrito! It's fresh, clean and friendly. I prefer El Diablo to Chipotle, Mo's and other similar businesses. A+

Passing thru town and stopped for dinner! Everything was fresh and delicious. Lots of extra options I don't usually find at other burrito places. Staff was so patient and attentive! The line never slowed up and everyone waiting was patient too, which supports the food is worth waiting for! read more

I love this place! Everything is fresh and delicious. This is like the upscale fresher version of Chipotle. The staff is always fast and friendly and the restaurant is always clean! The only way they can make this place better is if they were on Grub Hub or Door Dash! But then again that might be too perfect!! read more

Not haven't eaten here before, the staff was very helpful and patient. The suggestions they made, made the meal delicious! It was easy to tell the ingredients were fresh and plentiful. Looking forward to exploring more combinations, with some guidance. Certainly putting the Pike Creek store on my rotation of food stops. read more

I could not decide what to have for dinner so my family and I tried a new place with every bite you could taste the nice fresh ingredients. The service was great as well, they treat everyone like friends. If I were you I would keep on coming back! read more

great food, service was fantastic, people behind counter were welcoming and friendly. Will be coming back just for that reason

Hands down the best of its kind in the area. More tasty options, friendly service, and best of all their spices are actually spicy and you can adjust to your own taste. No more relying on your own hot sauce. My only quip is if you order something extra but have to wait for your quesadilla to cook, check to make sure they actually put it in the bag before you leave. They have charged me while forgetting to include my chips & queso on one occasion. read more

This is basically Chipotle on steroids. The steak is just amazing and the options of spicy or mild cheese et al is perfect. Highly, highly recommended. read more

Nice place. Comfortable seating. Fresh food and a lot of options. Staff moves fast when it's busy.

I love the food here, but was unable to enjoy it due to the less than satisfactory behaviors of the employees working. One employee, Saul? (Like Paul but with an S), thought it was appropriate to use a Vape, not only inside, but while working behind the counter where the food is out in the open. Another employee working at the time was questioned about how much one of the pre-packaged desserts was and her answer was "way over priced"...Is this how you want your company represented? read more

The food is great! I would give it 5 stars if they had an actual ordering system instead of one employee answering an iPhone one at a time to take orders read more

The food is so FRESH! I love eating at El Diablo. The service is fast and the food is amazing. Everything I've had has been delicious, but my favorite is the streak with mushrooms rice bowel. They have salads, burritos, tacos, and more. So good. read more

I love this place. Really good pick your protein, toppings, sauces etc. I recommend the honey jalapeno sauce it's amazing. Solid burritos and my wife gets a burrito bowl read more

I love El Diablo! The food is fresh and their suggested combinations are terrific. I had the suggested steak burrito combo- I couldn't ask for a more tasty version. Chips are fresh - either with or without salt. The size of the salsa, an extra cost, is too small given the number of chips! Overall I would recommend them for fresh Mex. read more

First and foremost...let there be no mistake that their burritos and ingredient choices are good. With that said, do NOT go to get a burrito or anything else at lunch time. Part of the allure of this place is the speed in which you can get a meal. The lunch hour ruins that. Today's experience was not a good one, and it hasn't been my first. I know exactly what I want when I order. If its just me in line, I can get served within probably 2 mins, which is wicked fast. However today I was 5th in line, and waited around 22 mins to checkout. I do not fully blame the workers, but improvements can be made. The lady 2 people in front of me was very aloof. She would ask for one thing, then go back and make a change, and did this a few times. That's annoying and it affected the mood of the workers. Once that was over, sure enough, the lady directly in front of me was on a lunch run for her office. She handed the first worker 2 notes with orders, then had someone on her phone as she repeated that persons order to the worker, and then gave her own personal order. I do not think workers should be taking notes from customers and then making food. Maybe if the worker had changed gloves before moving to the next customer it might be ok...but he did not. I didn't think anything of it until I was already in my truck, so I had to live with it. The note method flustered the worker (he made a mistake on one of her salads and had to throw it away and start over) because he tried making the salads from the notes AND at the same time make the salads from the lady barking directions at him. Before he was even done with her, he tried asking me what I wanted, and I patiently waited until he was done speaking to the lady. It was strange. I can only think he asked me what I wanted before she was done, to passively show her that she was holding up the line. So i told him what I wanted...steak burrito, white rice, black beans, no extras, no mushrooms. He said 'i got you boss, or bud' something like that. Except he didn't because he forgot the beans and I had to correct him. Then i moved down the line, and gave the rest of my order to the builder. He was also rushed. I asked for a little bit of spicy pico, he tossed a heaping spoon full. ok, fine no big deal. Then he sprayed my dressing on, and started to roll. It was rushed, and I thought it might cause an issue. I live less than 3 minutes away and by the time I got home, my burrito came loose inside the wrapper and made a mess. The lack of attention to details, and not following consistent procedure caused for a bad experience. The workers tend to have a care-free attitude, and seem to want to come across as super cool people rather than just be friendly and provide a good product and service. I also didn't form this opinion over one visit. I doubt anything will change in that regard, but I hope so. I will be back, just not during peak hours as it has trended to being a train wreck at those hours. Im giving 2 stars because as yelp suggests, "meh, I've experienced better'. Maybe not directly in this area, but being well traveled I feel the phrase stands true. And hopefully it draws some attention to maybe spark some changes. read more
