Customer Reviews
Visiting and I wanted something good. This hit the spot. Huge portion of carnitas Mexicanas, and basically all meat. The flavor was deep and rich. I wouldn't call it spicy, but seasoned perfectly. Service was super fast and very friendly. This is a winner!
I stopped by this Mexican place and got the grilled chicken combo with a burrito and a taco. There were a few options to choose from, but I went with those, and I’m glad I did. The grilled chicken was super tasty, juicy, tender, and full of that nice smoky flavor. The burrito was packed with chicken and cheese, plus some rice and refried beans, and it all came together really well. The taco was crispy and fresh, with a bit of lime that made it pop. The portions were great for the price, and everything tasted fresh. I’d definitely come back for this combo again.
El Charro had great food and excellent service. Doesn't matter what time you go, lunch or dinner rush is handled quickly and the staff communicate how long an order will take. The warm chips and salsa they bring you as soon as you sit down are fabulous. The restrooms are clean. The bar is a great looking space. The restaurant is kid friendly, they put families in areas which don't interrupt the sports game viewers at the bar or the party room. Check out their Taco Monday deal.
Went on Valentines Day, which we knew would be busy. However, took just over an hour to get our meals, waitress was not very quick about taking our order or bringing us drinks to begin with. I ordered the shrimp burrito (pictured) was cold from sitting in the kitchen and my fiance's dish was piping hot. My food was not edible, the shrimp was not cooked and had a strange seasoning. I was not even asked if there was a problem with my food after pushing it to the side and not eating it. The girl clearing the tables was slamming plates causing startling noise every so often. Would not recommend and definitely not returning for the price I paid.
This is my absolute favorite, authentic Mexican restaurant in immediate Latham area. They just updated the interior and the ambience is awesome. The food has always been great. I’ve tried many different items on the menu, always consistent flavor. Even the bar area is an enjoyable place to dine. Right after you are seated, you are greeted with warm chips and delicious salsa. The service is top-tier I have never had a bad experience. I really enjoy coming here.
