Little Diner

My favorite place to take friends and family. I dream about their queso. It's sooo good. As a vegetarian, I love getting their bean gorditas. Not many places accommodate vegetarians and this is the perfect spot to go to! Their salsa is to die for as well.

We stooped by for a COLD BEER and found it. We also had an order of 'tripitas' and my fish, they were fried crispy and were very tasty, served with their tasty green chili salsa. Great place to come to. The waitress was very friendly and always ready to replace your 'empty bottle'.

I was at the Outlet mall and needed to pick up something to take home to eat. I had heard about this place and wanted to see what the hype was all about, so I stopped in. The menu has something for everyone- not a Mexican food lover, well, there are hamburger baskets and fries. I did go for the Gordita stuffed with chunks of pork in a red sauce that was seasoned just right. I did get a side of fries that I will ask to be crispier next time because that is just my preference but the size of the side order was good. I also got a churro- warm and crispy and soft on the inside with lots of cinnamon sugar. Evy was wrapped perfectly so as to not spill or leak and stay warm until I got home. I did not have to reheat anything! The gentleman that was helping me was very friendly and told me about the history of the restaurant and showed me the wall of awards and memorabilia. A few famous faces have dined here including a member of the Eagles, former President Bush and others. Some of their items were featured in Gourmet magazine and they have been a category on Jeopardy! They do have several TVs and all kinds of beers if you want to have you game watch party there- why cook?I am so glad I stopped in and tried this place out!

Su y a cute little local spot. The food was good, I ordered everything chicken, and the chicken was a little dry for my taste. Next time I'll choose beef instead so it can have a little bit of taste and juicy flavor. Overall, great experience! Ana was a wonderful waitress!

Absolutely the best Gordita's I've ever had. Might be the best place I've found in El Paso area so far. Found this place on a recommendation from instagram, and glad we did. Waiter recommended the Combination plate (Gordita, taco, enchilada) and mentioned that the Chili Colorado Gordita was his favorite. So I ordered all of it. Plus queso dip for the table, on top of the chips and salsa provided. Combination plate was very good, absolutely delicious. The chili Colorado Gordita was amazing, just packed with flavor. Will definitely order Gordita's the chili Colorado way next time we go.

Contrary to previous posts, this place was swamped and understaffed at 11:30AM on a Friday. It was a good sign when their parking lot was full. So many people were leaving with large trays of takeout. We opted to dine in because I wasn't going to wait to eat the food. Quickly seated ourselves. They had two servers until reinforcements arrived at noon. They were all attentive, honest, and friendly. Ordered a bunch of gorditas and loaded nachos. Was warned off the bat that the nachos are kind of plain compared to the chili con queso. It's whatever. We were hungry and we usually get an appetizer. But for $15, you'd expect it to come with more "loaded" ingredients like sour cream, guacamole and your choice of meat if it was steak or chicken. Basically, it was chips, ground beef, refried beans, and nacho cheese. It did come with a bowl of their salsa. Was it good? Yes. My family and I gave it the consensus of 5.7/10. Next we had a train of gorditas. My daughter wanted a quesadilla but that was not what this place was popular for. Soooooo... she gets a bean Gordita. We also got two chili verdes, two chile colorados, three barbacoas, and one chicken Gordita. The Gorditas were solid! The sauce that came with the Barbacoa was made of lava! I swear! I couldn't feel my bottom lip and my tongue was fuego! As a family, we agreed to rate the Gorditas 7.7/10! Overall, this hole in the wall was a good find. Their marketing is top notch and so was their service. I'd recommend it to anyone in the area! Give them a try if you haven't.

This was my go to spot in the 80s. They had the best Gorditas and the food was excellent. I returned to the area this year after being gone for 38 years. The restaurant had changed ownership but to my delight the Gorditas were just as I remembered. I was not disappointed.

My wife used to go to Little Diner 40yrs ago when they were even smaller and in a different location. We were in town and when she mentioned it, I looked it and found they were still in business. Our meal was excellent and very reasonably priced which is nice to find in these days of high prices everywhere.My wife reported the shredded beef flautas were as good as she remembered. She usually doesn't finish her order and I'll get a taste to report on. Not this time. As I type this out, I realize I never got a bite!The waitress suggested the combo plate, which I had overlooked which was great for me since I wanted a taste of everything. I had a picadillo Gordita. Terrific masa shell and good flavor on the ground beef. However they don't use potatoes; just so you know. The barbacoa taco was probably the best I have had. Often barbacoa is greasy but this was moist, full of a flavor and didn't cause you to use every napkin on the table. The rojo chicken enchilada had great flavor with just the right amount of bitterness I enjoy in my red sauce.The chips and Salsa are not complimentary but so worth it. The flavor is awesome with just enough heat to give it some kick, without being over powering. They also have a red sauce that will leave you watering as you dive in and fail to realize the heat builds over time.We will definitely be back when we are back and you should for sure check them out.

ate there for lunch today and non-stop vomiting since. Avoid at all costs. Had to get our own plastic utensil, napkins and salt and pepper

Great just made tortillas. Every plate has been really good. I highly recommend this place.
