El Charro Mexican Restaurant offers a mix of experiences according to recent customers. One reviewer mentioned that the restaurant used to serve flavorful and authentic Mexican dishes, reminiscent of La Paz or La Ribera, but expressed disappointment in recent changes like smaller portions and higher prices. They also noted issues with rushed service and changes in the quality of guacamole and salsa.
Despite some mixed reviews, another customer enjoyed the delicious food and highlighted the excellent service. However, they mentioned an uncomfortable interaction with a staff member. One reviewer pointed out that the service was slow, with only one waiter and one cook during their visit, even when the restaurant was mostly empty. They had to wait a considerable time for their food and for their bill, which affected their overall experience.
On a positive note, another customer appreciated the attentive service and beautiful presentation of the food, stating that the taste was excellent. However, some diners felt that the food was just okay and did not leave a lasting impression. The restaurant does not offer specific items for vegetarians, gluten-free, or dairy-free individuals, as all food is prepared in the same area.
Parking is convenient in a large shopping center with plenty of free spaces, and the restaurant is wheelchair accessible. Overall, El Charro Mexican Restaurant has a history of serving authentic Mexican cuisine but has faced criticism for recent changes in portion sizes, prices, and flavors. While it offers decent food, some customers have reported uncomfortable interactions with the staff, and others are still searching for an excellent sit-down Mexican restaurant in the area.
