El Pueblito Mexican Restaurant, Greeley

At El Pueblito Mexican Restaurant, a family of restaurateurs and chefs from Guanajuato, Mexico whip up flavorful, colorful meals of south-of-the-border cuisine. As a family-run restaurant, El Pueblito not only values taste, but nutrition, too. That’s why the Mexican dishes—which include gluten-free and vegetarian options—are prepared with fresh ingredients and healthy culinary methods. For example, tortilla chips are made in-house sans salt, refried beans are cooked with vegetable oil instead of lard, and lean, tender cuts of beef are trimmed of excess fat before they make their way to piping-hot fajita pans. There also are options for diners who want to indulge, so save room for dessert and order crunchy sopapillas or lemon ice-cream cake.
