More information on Nemeth's El Tejon

This festive food den has been serving Colorado Springs since 1952. It offers complete authenticity. Enchiladas are the king of the menu and are what put this restaurant on the dining map. They come in different options that include chicken, beef and pork. If you prefer something easy on the diet try the Seafood Salad which comes topped with jumbo shrimp and scallops. There are also fajitas, burritos and chimichangas. A kid's menu is available.
