El Charro

I've lived in and out of the area my whole life. I returned to Houston and have visited El Charro every chance I had. Every item is always hot and fresh. Great queso and salsa. Good margaritas. Cozy atmosphere. The staff is polite and accomodating. No other tex-mex restaurant compares, in my eyes, for the area..!

I last ate at this place a little over 20 years ago. The restaurant has been there for decades. The fact that it's still there should tell you something. We decided to stop by since we were in the area. I do remember them providing GREAT customer service back then. We received the same GREAT service this time. We ordered the fajita enchiladas and fajitas for one. The food and service were great. We'll be visiting more often.

This is a great place to take friends and family for authentic Mexican food. They have an excellent variety of meal choices and the service is A ! Highly recommend this family owned and run business! Update: Wife and I went for a bite and shared a Beer-Rita. It's really good too... we love Mexican Cervezas, so this a good choice. Been seeing it on the menu for years. Do yourselves a favor a don't wait as long as we did. Ok? Update: February 10, 2024 They have revamped the lighting, the ceilings and repainted... it looks and smells great!!! They food was awesome as always, as were the drinks... Service personalized and amazing! ¡Pervecho!

1st timer here. Prices are too high for the quality of food. I never say this but it 's mediocre/sub-par. Arandas next door would have been better. They are stretching the meats and it 's embarrassingly obvious. Cheese enchiladas are flat, needs more filling. The main parillada entree, the $22.50 one has grocery store sausage and disappointingly burnt beef cut into thin strips. Guacamole salad that 's guac, right? No it 's onions, cilantro tomato, jalapenos sttttretched with one avocado. $10.95 I wanted one of these classic TexMex places close to home. We will not return. Thank you for the excellent service.

OMG. I'm bringing my family members one at a time. So I can visit often. The food is so fresh and delicious.
