El Chico's seems to be our go to restaurant when we can't decide we're to eat. I always get the 2 beef enchilada. I'm one of the people that cilantro taste like soap. So I ask that cilantro not be on top of my rice.

We have not been in awhile, but we left because this place was a mess. Kitchen had a big party in side room and rest of restaurant was close to empty. A lady kept coming out to say kitchen has told us not to sit anyone for 15-20 mins, after that time passed she said kitchen said another 10 minutes. During all of this tons of people were just crammed into the wait area, she wouldn’t take names or preferences. When did kitchen start managing front of house? Sit people so they can get a drink and disability and elderly are not having to stand for 30 minutes, then you tell them kitchen is backed up so it will take longer than normal.
We ended up walking out and going to another Mexican restaurant. Not sure I will be back because it was a disappointing experience.

The "Chicken Monterey" is a great choice my personal favorite. Fajitas are good as well.
Update: the they serve the best Mexican apple pie hands down..It comes out sizzling in a cast iron skillet with a big scoop of cinnamon vanilla ice cream with a caramel glaze butter sauce poured over it!! You have you try it.
If worried about calories, no problem everyone at table will be glad help you eat it. Actually the whole place will be attracted to its sweet smokey aroma and sound of it crackling on the hot skillet. When it comes out just wait n see lol

food is very tasty ? & the staff is very friendly.
This El Chico location was an incredibly gringo version of Tex-Mex food. While we were there our waitress didn't get some of our order right, but luckily the manager helped fix it. The waitress also kept calling me lady instead of ma'am, a little awkward when she asked if I needed anything else.
The flour tortillas looked and tasted store bought with a waxy texture. The rice didn't taste authentic or fresh. Additionally, the charro beans didn't have much flavor either. The only thing that was pretty good was the free chips and salsa.
We've been to some of the other El Chico locations before the Cuellar family sold it, and I can see why they left when they did.

Average food and service. Easy on the wallet though so they get an extra star for that! It was not busy, yet still had to repeat our requests to the waitress.
