Lord, I thought the reviews on how good this were all exaggerated. Oh no this food was made by the Gods themselves, I have never been so made I was full I just wanted to keep eating.
Moved here from Austin, Tx a few years ago and thought we'd never find a decent Tex Mex restaurant in East Tn. While there are several very good places in town with certain dishes they do well, El Chico does it all very well. From the quality of the chips and robust salsa to our favorite chicken fajitas for 2 with a cold Tecate' it doesn't get any closer to Tex Mex in Austin, TX than this. Prices are great and for The Best Service ask for Enrica (EnnReeKha) Awesome server!
A great place to eat and cheap prices for good food.
Serving up heaping portions of Mexican favorites since 1940. – In Short This Southern chain serves Tex-Mex and Mexican staples to large groups and families who come to gab over unlimited chips and hearty food staples. The Southwestern decor features bright colored walls and thick terracotta-tiled floors. Classic El Chico combinations, around since the company started in 1940, heap tamales, cheese enchiladas and refried beans on one plate. Tex-Mex items represent tastes for fajitas, soft tacos and enchiladas verde.
Best Mexican – I live on the west side of knoxville and travel to El Chico's about once every other month to dine. My wife and I think it's the best mexican food by far.
my family dines here about twice a month and have always had consistently excellent food and service. we also dine at don pablos at knoxville ctr and find it surprising that this web site rates it 8.2 and el chicos 7.2. el chicos is a cut above in the quality of the food than don pablos.
