I am normally a red sauce eater but the green (probably the weak Sendy) was really good. Not spicy but full of flavor. Service was excellent again. 1st visit: I've been in Colorado for nearly two weeks and this has probably been the best meal I've had so far, even after dining in Aspen (Clark's, Aspen Public House) and Boulder (Flagstaff, the Kitchen American Bistro). I love chorizo tacos and the ones here served with potatoes and fried egg with a side of chips and salsa was one of the best I've ever had and I think that's says a lot after living a lifetime in Texas. The hot dog was flavorful and probably a foot long. It was served with lightly salted french fries that reminded me if the ones my mom used to make me. The Bloody Mary was also very good and slightly spicy although it was only garnished with a lime and no olives. The place is very small, seats maybe a couple of dozen indoors but there is also outdoor seating. Service was very friendly.

The food was creative and flavorful, especially the jerk chicken tacos, and it's easy to see why…read morethis place has developed such a loyal following. The biggest drawbacks were the lack of convenient parking, the small dining area, and the absence of air conditioning, which would have made sitting indoors on a warm day less comfortable. Much of the available seating is located in the nearby public park, which serves as an extension of the restaurant's dining space. While that setup may not appeal to everyone, it does provide a pleasant outdoor atmosphere and a great place to enjoy your meal when the weather cooperates. Service was adequate but not particularly memorable. One small annoyance was having to retrieve napkins from the self-service station, as none were provided when the food was delivered. Overall, the quality and creativity of the food outweighed the logistical inconveniences, making Slope & Hatch a worthwhile stop in Glenwood Springs.

Taqueria El Nopal -- Glenwood Springs, CO…read more If you're looking for authentic Mexican food where the locals actually eat, put Taqueria El Nopal on your list. This is definitely off the tourist path, and when we walked in on a Tuesday, the restaurant was filled with locals, always a good sign. It's tucked into a strip mall, but don't let that fool you. Inside, it's colorful, casual, and full of character, with beautiful original artwork painted on the benches and tables. You order at the counter, and we happened to visit on Tuesday, when fajitas were the special. The portion was generous, and they were absolutely delicious. My daughter had the quesadillas, my son ordered the steak platter, and everything we tried was fresh, flavorful, and very well prepared. The only thing I wasn't particularly impressed with was the salsa bar. But honestly, that was a small downside compared with how good everything else was. This is exactly the kind of unassuming, hole-in-the-wall local restaurant I love discovering, authentic food, lots of personality, generous portions, and a place where the community actually goes to eat. If you're visiting Glenwood Springs, skip some of the touristy spots and make a stop at Taqueria El Nopal. Definitely worth seeking out! It's on the pricy side because for the three of us with no alcohol it was $90.

I just got the homemade root beer which was completely underwhelming which was lacking any flavor, lacking in both the earthy taste and in sweetness. The green chili pork with hominy was the soup special I had and it was great. The tortilla strips added a nice crunch and the green chili had a nice spice to it without being overpowering. The fish and chips were alright, with the fish being a bit under salted and the coleslaw being a mushy mess and the tartar being very basic. The fries were nice as they had a nice crisp and were seasoned enough. Our waitress barely ever came by and gave us the check like the restaurant was shutting down but they were still open another hour and other sections were still full. Getting rushed out was a bit odd but didn't ruin the food. Descent enough spot but offers nothing special.
