About This Place

Located in the heart of Colorado City, Hidalgo Restaurant offers an inviting blend of authentic Mexican, American, and Tex-Mex flavors that make every meal a memorable experience. Whether you’re craving the bold zest of a chimichanga or the comforting familiarity of a classic chicken fried steak, Hidalgo delights with a menu that speaks to a rich culinary heritage while embracing local favorites.

Their signature dishes are a celebration of vibrant tastes and hearty portions. Imagine biting into a hot, crispy chimichanga filled with savory goodness, or savoring the perfectly seasoned fajitas—choose from beef, chicken, or shrimp—sizzling right from the grill, accompanied by fresh, flavorful sides. The enchilada combinations stand out as a true highlight, with options like cheese, beef, or chicken enchiladas, served alongside rice, beans, and your choice of a bold green (hot) sauce, a mild red sauce, or luscious chile con queso. Particularly impressive is the way Hidalgo creatively pairs enchiladas with other delights such as chalupas, tacos, or even chile rellenos, all bringing a balanced harmony of spice and richness.

For those who appreciate hearty American classics, Hidalgo hasn’t missed a beat. The hamburger steak and bacon cheeseburger come loaded with fresh lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, and onions, served with golden french fries that are crispy on the outside and fluffy inside. Their chicken fried steak, blanketed in savory gravy, creates a comforting plate reminiscent of home-cooked meals, meant to satisfy both the appetite and the soul.

The dining atmosphere at Hidalgo is warm and welcoming, capturing the essence of small-town hospitality with attentive and friendly service. Guests often praise the restaurant for its cleanliness and the genuine kindness of its staff, making every visit feel like coming home. One regular visitor fondly notes the charm of the "hot plates" that keep food sizzling throughout the meal — a rare quality that showcases true care and attention to food quality.

The menu also thoughtfully caters to children and seniors with generous portions that don’t compromise on flavor — from tender chicken strips served with sides to simpler yet delicious options like grilled cheese sandwiches or a tamale with rice and beans. This inclusivity reflects Hidalgo’s commitment to making everyone feel at ease and eager to return.

Customers consistently commend Hidalgo’s friendly atmosphere and the authenticity of their Tex-Mex offerings. The loaded nachos are frequently raved about, bursting with layers of cheese, meat, and fresh toppings that create a perfect starter or shareable snack. Whether you are a longtime local or just passing through, Hidalgo Restaurant invites you to savor the comforting flavors of Texas-sized Mexican and American cuisine crafted with heart and tradition.

    This place has outstanding service and food! We've tried several plates. The California burrito and nachos are a favorite but have never tried anything we didn't like.

    This is one of our favorite spots in Colorado City. C City is my wife’s home town and we periodically come to visit. Hidalgo serves classic Tex Mex, and they have stuck with a process almost every other restaurant has abandoned: HOT PLATES! They mean it when they say the plate is hot, and when you finish your meal, it will still be hot. This means your food will remain a great temperature to the last bite. It reminds me of my childhood when plates were hot nationwide.

    I stopped there while traveling and had the loaded nachos. They were excellent and the staff were helpful and friendly. They are a great little local spot.
