Went for Taco Tuesday... I tried chicken taco, al pastor taco, and a beef enchilada. Tacos were very good -- nice preparation and excellent flavors. Enchilada was very disappointing -- sauce was totally blah. My wife enjoyed her carne asada tacos. Excellent green salsa with the chips. Atmosphere was cheap diner, but clean enough. The lady serving us was friendly. Thumbs up overall.

I'm a Minnesotan who was in town in business. I found this restaurant on Yelp before I arrived. When I arrived, I wasn't sure. It is a tiny restaurant with a tiny parking lot. We were greeted and offered a booth. The menu was BIG. Lots of options. My traveling colleague has been to Mexico lots, and he was impressed with the menu. Chips and salsa and frijoles dip made it to the table as a free appetizer with our cervezas! The chips were cold and not made on premises. Oh well. Good salsa and frijoles dip. I ordered an enchiladas plate, which came with beans on the side (and maybe rice, cannot remember?). Anyway, let me tell you, this might have been the best Mexican food I'd ever eaten. Holy mole! So flavorful. I don't remember what kind of meat was in there. I only remember that it was heavenly. Bottom line? Do not judge a book by its cover. This place is the real deal. Incredible. My traveling colleague approved, as well.

Just moved to Pocatello and decided to try some Mexican food. El Herradero did not disappoint! Fajitas were delicious. Rice and beans were flavorful and both salsas were delicious.

Authentic Mexican at a low price. Food is great (I had the street tacos and they were awesome). Service was incredible (very fast and friendly). Not some place you'd take a prom date. Jeans and t-shirt kind of place. Chips and salsa with every dine in order. Great selection of food (what you'd expect for Mexican food). Family friendly. Family owned business (2 locations in Pocatello). Coke products. Fried ice cream or Churros for dessert, Yes please.

Solid 4 on the burrito. Was not a huge fan of the red sauce but I was steak going to town in this. Lots of onions, a bit more than should be but rice and beans were great and not runny or under cooked. Chicken was seasoned pretty good on this and the food was super quick once we ordered. Hard to find some parking but if you wait you will find a quick spot as they don't take long to dish up a meal.

Really great Mexican food, cheap, hearty and richly satisfying. Chips are feather lite, the warm bean dip is the bomb, and who does not like 1.75 cent tacos!
