I have plenty of experience when it comes to chile verde, and El Manantial has consistently delivered the best that I've ever tasted. The mole sauce is always cooked to perfection and has the perfect level of heat.

The meat is incredibly tender, and their secret seasonings really bring out the flavor of the dish. It's usually served with a side of fresh tortillas, which goes very well with it.

El Manantial also offers a variety of succulent tacos as well as other traditional Mexican dishes. My favorite part about this restaurant is that they are always willing to serve your dish without chiles if you're not a fan of spicy food.

Overall, I highly recommend El Manantial Restaurant for anyone looking for the best chile verde in Amarillo - you won't be disappointed!

Their chile verde is made with only the freshest, locally grown ingredients. The flavor is just incredible; it's got a bit of heat that kicks you in the tongue and a sweetness that ties it all together. The texture is spot-on, too; not overly thick or thin but just right. I also like how they don't skimp on the pork, as many places do!

All in all, I'd say that Aldaco's Tacos is the best chile verde in Amarillo. Highly recommend!
