" El Charolais seems to be an exceptional choice for those craving Mexican food. Though a little crowded during dinner, the staff managed to serve us well and efficiently. The flavors were on point; I had Enchiladas with green sauce that were full of flavor with just the right amount of spice. I’ll definitely be coming back to try more dishes soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a wonderful weekday dinner at El Charolais! I tried the Torta Cubana and was thoroughly impressed by the flavor and quality of the ingredients used. The portion was more than enough to fill me up. The service was quick, and our server was knowledgeable about the menu, helping us choose the best dishes. I'd recommend this place to anyone looking for a hearty Mexican meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" El Charolais is the definition of a hidden gem! I stumbled across this place while visiting Johnson City and I’m so glad I did. The atmosphere is vibrant and reflects the culture beautifully. I ordered their Mole Poblano, and it was incredible! The service was prompt and polite, making me feel welcome. I can’t wait to share this discovery with my friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" I always recommend El Charolais to my friends. Their Camarones a la Diabla is the best I’ve had outside Mexico! It has the perfect heat and absolutely fresh shrimp. The ambiance is bright and cheerful, making it a great place for gatherings. The only downside is that it's often crowded, so better to go early if you want a quieter dining experience. But trust me, it’s worth the wait! " (*Curated Review*)

" After reading great reviews, we decided to visit El Charolais. Our dining experience started off well, with friendly staff and a vibrant atmosphere. However, we encountered a major hiccup when our order got mixed up. It took a while to get it sorted, and though they replaced our meal, it was disappointing to realize that they hadn't prepared what we originally wanted. Ultimately, the dishes were fine, but the mishap took away from the experience. Still hoping to give it another try in the future! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations for El Charolais after hearing so many good things, but my experience was rather average. While the portions were indeed substantial, I found the flavors to be lacking. The chips tasted a bit stale, and my burrito was slathered in a sauce that overwhelmed the meat flavor. The service was decent, though a bit slow during peak hours. I think there's potential here, but they need to fine-tune the dishes to stand out. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're on the hunt for authentic Mexican cuisine, look no further than El Charolais. Their Tacos al Pastor are a must-try; I could taste the freshness in every bite! The ambiance is lively, and the servers are always friendly. Sometimes, it can be a bit crowded during dinner hours, but the bustling atmosphere adds to the charm. Would absolutely recommend!
