We went for a quick dinner. They have a new chef here and we could tell. Everything we had was top notch with flavor. The apple cider vinaigrette for our roasted squash and spinach salad was excellent. My fajita was asgood as I've had and my wife raved about her fish tacos. The red sangria was big enough for us to share and very good as well.

Another day, another chance for more tacos with the RI Food Fight's TacoMania. This time we started with Diego's. As it was a Saturday, no tables were available from reservations but we were able to grab a seat at the bar. The space is open, dark. A blend of Mexican homage and industrial brick. An open kitchen gives you the chance to watch your meal be prepared in full view. Our bartender, Greer was super friendly and balanced attentiveness. She is detail oriented and was very accommodating. She quickly took care of our drinks and got our food order in ASAP. They offered a limited menu for TacoMania and I chose the carne option. It came out in a crunchy blue corn tortilla. After a squeeze of lime, I dug in. The crunch was everything you wanted it to be and more. The beef with queso fund

We hosted our wedding rehearsal dinner at Diego's in December 2025. The entire process was relatively simple and straightforward. Their events team reached out to us quickly after we submitted our inquiry. Meaghan asked us some up front questions, then started to plan with us. We had two folks with serious allergies (gluten and nuts) she assured us that gluten would be no issue at all. And I was really impressed when she said "And the kitchen will be nut free that night!" We were able to pick a small menu for our guests. Margarita pitchers were and appetizers were placed on the table as soon as we arrived. Small desserts were a treat as well! Our server did a great job throughout the evening. Overall, we had an excellent time. The space was good, the food was great, and the team kept thi

Great place!! Everyone from the hostess to bartender to wait staff - fantastic! It was a busy night, so some of the order details were missed but otherwise we were all happy. Drinks and food were amazing and so tasty! Whole place is an alternative vibe. Comfortable, inclusive and fantastic music!

Tried a few different taco places this month and Diego’s was the best! They season their homemade chips with salt and spices which totally makes them stand out! Their food is their own and VERY flavorful. Loved the housemade fried beef taco, tried the pulled pork street tacos and mini tinga chicken quesadilla and the guacamole 🥑 The restaurant was clean and inviting and service was superb! Thanks for serving us great meals and great service! Keep up your awesomeness!
