    3 taco plate double rice no beans
    Jason B.

    Authentic fresh and fast Mexican food with average prices in comparison to other similar restaurants. On this visit I tried the 3 asada taco plate. Flavor of the tacos were outstanding but they are fairly small street tacos. Other than that it was very good. Cashier is super nice and friendly and gave great customer service. As far as the ambiance they are way overdue to update the dining area. The booths are in pretty bad shape and torn. Also very small with only 6 tables. Overall I will continue to eat here occasionally when I am in the area

    The metal Rivet I bit down on that came from my burrito.

    Been coming to El Charro for years. We've ordered often and well close to $100 because we are a bigger family. Got an asada burrito this morning, and to my surprise there was a metal rivet in my food! I've never had an issue and always recommended them. Today I am over it. I'm sure it wasn't on purpose but you definitely gotta be more careful. Check your equipment, check your food prepared & so on. Unfortunately won't be returning, this could've been one of my kids! They are offering a refund.

    Chilé verde burrito, delicious!

    Decent little hole in the wall. I've gone on two seperate occasions to see how consistent the food was. It isn't. The burrito was much smaller the first time, and the second time it was bigger. The green Chile verde burrito was small but it was really really tasty! The bigger burrito was a carné asada and the meat was dry and the rice was hard. Very very inconsistent. I am giving 3 stars for that chilé verde because it is probably the best I've ever had and I have had it at so many places. Tastes really authentic. It kind of smells inside like a toilet, but I would still go back for that Chilé verde burrito.

    My husband and I came here at 845pm on a Sunday night. This place closes at 9 but they still took our order and was very nice about it. I usually don't like to dine at places within 30 minutes of closing because I feel bad and also know that usually workers just want to go home. It this place was very nice. They're following physical distancing having tables not in use. They had little table outside also. All we ordered were 8 asada tacos, bottled drinks and chips and salsa. The tacos are small but they pack them full of meat. The tacos were very tasty. We definitely will be back again.

    Had their Enchilada platter. Satisfying. Beans a bit thin/runny though. But still ok.

    Best spot for Mexican food and great taste. It was a little slow and the space setting is small.

    I really wanted to give Los Amores de Julia a full five stars because the atmosphere is beautiful…read moreand the staff is genuinely welcoming. It's a charming local spot with a cozy, intimate vibe that's perfect for a first date or a quiet night out. That said, the prices are extremely high for what's offered, especially if you're coming in with family. It's not the most affordable option for a regular dining experience, and that was disappointing considering how much I enjoy supporting local restaurants. If you're looking for a romantic, local place to try once, especially for a date night, I'd still recommend stopping by. But for families or anyone watching their budget, just be prepared for the higher price point.

    My partner and I stopped by as we stumbled to this place on Yelp . The decor is trendy and the…read moreambiance is great , perfect for happy hour or a celebration. We came for dinner, and the lighting was very dim, making it hard to read the menu (they also use QR codes, but I prefer a physical menu). We started with the ceviche verde limon, which had very little shrimp, lots of onion, and it needed more lemon. Our bartender, Carlos, was friendly and made excellent cantaritos (10/10). Unfortunately, the entrées didn't impress. The Camarones de Don Lupe were chewy and tasted previously frozen, however the salsa they came with was very tasty and the carne en su jugo was just okay. Overall, great vibe but overpriced for the food quality. I might return for brunch since I've heard they have live mariachi.
