About El Chorro

El Chorro offers a fantastic experience with a great wine selection and diverse menu. Guests can enjoy drinks with a view on the patio, making it a perfect spot for Happy Hour margaritas. The restaurant has been a family favorite for many years, thanks to its thoughtful blend of updating the menu while keeping fan favorites, which keeps loyal customers returning year after year. The atmosphere, service, and food are consistently appreciated, and special occasions are celebrated with thoughtful touches like complimentary desserts. A minor downside was a fee for cutting a birthday cake. Despite this, El Chorro remains a long-standing favorite for generations and is a must-visit in Scottsdale for a memorable meal. The staff, such as Vicki, provide cheerful, stellar service, and dishes like lemon ricotta pancakes and the breakfast tamale bowl are highly praised for their taste and presentation. The fruit plate with prickly pear yogurt is also a highlight, adding to the restaurant’s appeal.

Recently, guests enjoyed the lovely patio, especially during this time of year. The Bloody Mary was delicious and came with bacon and shrimp, while the sticky buns remained sticky and yummy. Visitors appreciated the beautiful ambiance on the patio, despite some noise from wedding party music nearby. The overall service, food, and location were highly rated, making it a great spot for an outdoor dinner under the stars. Many guests found their experience top notch, noting attentive and pleasant servers, wonderful atmosphere, and amazing food. Favorites included the signature trout dish and the salmon, both praised for their taste. Cocktails were also highly enjoyed. The restaurant proved to be a perfect place for celebrations, such as birthdays, with a warm and inviting environment and excellent service, including a cheerful server named Taylor.

We had my grandmother’s 101 birthday dinner here Friday the 15 . There was 11 of us and it was wonderful. Food was delicious, atmosphere was quiet enough for her to be comfortable but what made it memorable was the waiter. The gentleman who waited on us ( brown hair ) was extremely knowledgeable kind patient and attentive.
