El Chaparro Restaurant offers a delightful and authentic Mexican dining experience. This small establishment may have some language barriers, but the staff is friendly, and the food is worth the wait. The caldo de res, a hearty beef soup, is a standout, featuring a generous amount of meat and vegetables, complemented by tortillas, salsa, onion, and cilantro on the side. The menudo is a favorite among customers, with some saying it is the best in Richmond. The owner and staff are always nice, ensuring that orders are taken care of despite any language challenges. For those seeking a taste of Mexico, the chili relleno plate and the gorditas de chicharrón are highly recommended. Customers have also enjoyed the birria tacos, especially the cheese version, which is crunchy and served with handmade tortillas. The handmade aguas frescas, or fresh fruit drinks, add a refreshing touch to the meal. While parking can be challenging, the restaurant’s commitment to serving up traditional Mexican flavors makes it a must-try for those craving a taste of home or an adventure in authentic cuisine.
