" Had a group dinner at El Charro and everyone enjoyed their meals. I especially liked their fajitas, cooked perfectly and served hot! The guacamole has a unique twist, and my friends raved about the quesabirria tacos. Service was fast and friendly, making it a great place for gatherings. Highly recommend for good times and tasty food! " (*Curated Review*)

" It was a nice experience overall. The environment is cozy, and the food quality is commendable. However, I found the service to be slightly lacking; it took a while for our orders to come out. Still, I really enjoyed the shrimp enchiladas, and the horchata was one of the best I’ve tasted! " (*Curated Review*)

" Surprising how much I loved this place! I ventured in for a casual dinner and was blown away by their horchata—it was delightful! The environment is festive and perfect for family gatherings. I can’t say enough about the tamales, which were freshly made and delicious. Only downside was a slight delay in service, but overall a great experience! " (*Curated Review*)
