El Chino Mexican Restaurant is a beloved spot, known for its good food, good service, and friendly staff. The restaurant features a wide parking lot and is wheelchair accessible. While the veggie menu options may not be clear, customers can accommodate dietary restrictions with some modifications. The restaurant has a long history of consistency, with some customers returning for over 20 years. Many enjoy the simple, homestyle meals that warm them up from the inside, especially the Enchiladas and Flautas. Guests appreciate the flavorful dishes and generous portions, like the shredded beef in the a la carte enchiladas. El Chino has maintained its reputation as a great place for Mexican food, and the welcoming atmosphere keeps customers coming back. They have been family-owned for around 40 years, and it’s a fun time with nice chips and salsa served alongside meals.
