I’d agree, the green chili around here is often not actually even green in color. We always make our chili verde with lots of tomatillos and jalapeños, so it’s green, and it’s tangy. Roasted green tomatoes from the garden are also a good stand in for tomatillo flavor.

Sol De Jalisco isn’t bad, inconsistent to me. I think their chefs vary widely in skill and style, in fact 50% of the time if I ask for something slightly different they say “oh we have a new chef and they won’t know how to do that,” but it’s very close for me so I do eat it in a pinch. If I have time I go to Los Comales in Greeley. Pollos El Guero in Windsor is a hole in the wall Mexican chicken restaurant that has el Pollo Loco style chicken which I like as well. Their service pretty consistently takes a while though. They don’t seem to be able to keep enough chicken grilled up and I always seem to have to wait for it to be finished. The biggest indicator to me is the the people eating at the place around you. If you go to Pollos El Guero or Los Comales you are usually surrounded by Mexican families or blue color Mexican workers. That’s always a good sign you’re eating authentic Mexican food.
