A favorite of the entire familys! – We've been eating at El Charros for over 28 years... The chips and salsa are great but what I love is if you order a "dos", there is plenty for 2 meals. I always have whatever I've ordered again for lunch the next day and it's even better the second time around! El Charro is great for diners of all ages.

Fantastic Food, Great Service – My wife and I are new to the area and were in the mood for some good mexican food. Checked out El Charro and we were not dissapointed.

Best salsa and chips! – Excellent Mexican food! I usually head into the cantina, where the waitresses are super friendly. The blue cheese/garlic dip (that comes with the free chips, salsa, and hot sauce) is phenomenal! We usually have to get a dish per person! The chicken enchilada sauce is very tasty, and there is a hefty serving of chicken in the enchiladas. The taco sauve is very good as well, with beef that is very tender (not ground, shredded). The seafood chimichanga is very crisp and the seafood isn't overcooked as it... read more

Good Mexican food – We were here for dinner, and were treated to a solid meal. In addition to the salsa served with the chips, they serve a side of cheese spread that is quite tasty. The sampler platter was actually cheaper than a regular 2 item combo, and it came with 2 plates full of food. We would definately return.
