Cinco de Mayo and Taco Tuesday. El Charro Restaurant fell off today. I ordered the Quesabirria Tacos (3 Street tacos). I also ordered a Beans and Cheese and paid to "Make it Wet." Everything would have been perfect except they did not make the burrito wet. They also changed the size of the sauce containers. read more

I used to come to this place all the time as I used to live up the street and I always got an asada torta with fries and they always gave a very decent amount of fries so no complaints. Well today I stopped by and got my usual but when I got home and opened my food I saw the portion of the fries had drastically decreased! I paid $15 for this which is a huge scam. I can't even call it a handful of fries because it's less than that!! This is unacceptable. Such a shame. read more

El Charro Restaurant - Asada torta with fries - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I like this spot but it has some misses. So far only had a California burrito and the occasional super fries and nachos. Can't comment on service or the location since I order from DoorDash exclusively here but so far they hook it up at least when it comes to sides and condiments. Everything hits but there have been sometimes where the food arrives a bit soggily clumped together or blander than usual so ur mileage may vary. The biggest offenders for me would be their Jamaica and salsa verde which come rather bland imo. Again mileage may vary on that. For the price doh it's still a hit for me. Just not at that spot iykyk. read more

I loved the customer service, the lady that helped us out with our order was very lovely and nice. The food was absolutely delicious in my opinion, I would definitely buy from here again!! read more

I've ordered this on postmates a few times and it never fails to deliver. My favorite go to is the breakfast burrito with chorizo (hold the beans) which comes with two sides of salsa. The burrito comes fully loaded and you'll definitely have enough leftover to save for another day. I'm picky with my breakfast burritos, but this one is perfectly juicy and the proportions of cheese/meat/egg is spot on. I also like their beef enchiladas which comes with a delicious red sauce, rice, hold the beans, sour cream, lettuce and tomato. I have ordered a regular burrito with rice before, but found it not to be to my liking - too bland. I'll stick with the breakfast ones. read more

We visited the first location in Los Angeles. On our way to a concert in the area. I grew up in LA and have experienced a lot of amazing Mexican food. This was absolutely the best I had ever had. I ordered the fresh guacamole and the shrimp, scallops enchiladas. Fantastic!!! The margaritas are the best ever. It's a bit pricey, but so worth it. The service, fast and friendly. We'll be back for sure!!! read more

Fast mexican foods and rice plate entrees. Their drinks also come with one free refill which is great. Lots of combos come with either a free fries or drink. No free parking - just street or you can park in the home depot/food 4 less parking lot across the street. The short beef ribs plates are amazing! I like how they offer a big variety and combo platters to offer a savings. They also have fruit Fresca, unlimited do it yourself toppings bar. Habanero sauce and cactus as a protein choice! read more

The food was excellent. The service was good. The ambiance was great. I recently took a friend of mine out to dinner at the original location on Western Ave, and we had a great experience. The cheese and onion enchilada platter was superb and the margarita she ordered was wonderful. Lastly, the restaurant prices are not too expensive, but not ideal for someone on a budget or with a big family. read more

This morning, our family needed breakfast quickly at 8am and found a great 25% discount for this restaurant via GrubHub. We went with the Machaca special, Chorizo Burrito, Chiaquiles Verde, and Chorizo con huevos. Each plate came with a free drink and chose Horchata, Jamaica as well as the mint tea. When it arrived, it actually was extremely quick and between 20 minutes, so I'm unsure if it was the restaurant or quickness of GrubHub, nonetheless, it was a good experience. The food arrived and looked fresh as well as tasteful. I personally enjoyed the machaca plate (rice and beans included), which came with corn tortillas, chips and I couldn't finish it. My son really liked the chorizo burrito, but it was large and he couldn't finish, which is surprising as he is a growing teenager. I had the chorizo plate shared with my younger children and it was more than enough for them as well. My wife was not too fond with the chilaquiles verde plate and said it was too salty, but she mentioned she would try something else next time. Overall, I had a stellar experience with this restaurant and will mostly likely order again when I'm in the area. The only change I would make is probably ordering less next time around because we have a lot of leftovers! read more

LOVE this place, great authentic Mexican Food. Great customer service. BEST BEST Chile relleno burrito I ever had. Complement to the chef! Awesome food portions for the price. highly recommend if your in the area. read more

Delicious!!! Highly recommend. I had the beef tacos with beans and fries and it was delicious!!!! Thank you for this delicious food.

Thought we order in due to the rain. We decided to go with El Charro. Grub Hub delivered fast so kudos to you guys for that! Got the enchiladas rojas with rice and beans and a cucumber lemonade. For 11.99 I should got something else that was maybe worth it. They give u two enchiladas that the sauce is a bit salty and yes it's packed with chicken. It actually felt like I was eating chicken tamales rather than enchiladas. Rice was actually okay it wasn't dry nor burned. The beans did taste a bit burned maybe left them in to long. The cucumber lemonade was actually very satisfying and coo. Would I give this place another chance.. not sure?!? I'm in the air with it. I thought it be a little more better or maybe a little more home like to it... a little dissatisfied with it... read more

It's just alright. I'm not a fan of the moist tortilla. Seems like it's steamed, placed on on paper then rolled in foil. The moistness just destroys the tortilla. It makes it seem raw. Burrito was actually smaller than I expected from the photos. Fillings were good though. So maybe it's better to try the plates or nachos or something. I'll give it one more shot for the Charro nachos. read more

Best $1.75 tacos ever!! Only giving 4 stars because unless you're lucky enough to get 1-2 of the good servers, the rest are completely clueless and you'll sit there ignored for a good while. But once they take your order it's only a matter of minutes until your tacos are at your table. **HEADS UP** If you want to order tacos togo, just go in, sit down, order them for there, then ask for a box. The togo tacos are awful! Super skimped with barely anything in them... This is the trick to get the 5 star tacos togo. read more

Grubhub offered a 15% discount today so I took advantage of it to try a Mexican restaurant I have had my eye on, El Charro. Got chicken enchiladas with green sauce, salad, rice and beans. Food was a bit bland so I augmented it with dried chillies and salsa. It arrived warm and tasted okay, albeit as I said weak on the spices (for which I took a star off). Rice and beans had generous portion. Lots of salad with lettuce and tomato (I put some dressing on it) and a big dollop of sour cream. Enchiladas had nice big chunks of chicken. The pineapple drink was cool and not too sweet. No chips or corn tortillas? A bit disappointing it didn't come with either. Or some salsa. I took another star off for that. Overall I would order from there again. But may also try some other places instead in search of something more flavorful. read more

El Charro Restaurant - A filling meal if a bit on the bland side. - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Can not believe I lived in this hood and it took me 3 years to discover this gem! I primarily go for the chicken super nachos, which are FIRE and a great value. The tacos are tasty as well and loaded. Have had the chorizo con heuvo breakfast a few times, bomb as well. Their carne asada is not my fav, but the CHICKEN is seasoned very well and is my go to. Carnitas are solid as well. To the right of where you order they have a little refrigerated cart with a variety of sauces. Charming little place. I always grab my food to go, but eating in would be enjoyable. They have a couple of tvs with a Roku, that is usually playing a cool movie. Quick, friendly service. They know me, so they hook up my plates FAT! read more

Not even sure where to start. The food was disgusting. We ordered the Fajitas plate & chili relleno/chicken enchilada plate. Unfortunately they didn't give us the correct order. They gave us the carne asada plate instead of the fajita plate. Nothing about this meal was good. Not even the beans or rice. The chili relleno was soggy & greasy. How does this place have good reviews? The food was bland & just didn't look good. We didn't even eat half of the meal & tossed it. Overpriced. Never thought I'd consider eating Taco Bell over anything. Save your money. read more

This is a chain of Mexican restaurants. The menu and everything is completely corporatized. With so many non-corporate options on 6th this would not be my first choice. With that said the portions are huge for not a lot of money. I had a carne asada plate for $10 which had carne asada, rice, beans, tortillas. read more

The food is ok, prices are cheap, and portions are large. However, I don't know what they're doing with the pork (Carnitas and Al Pastor), but it has the insanely layer of disgusting fat/grease/oil that surrounds it and completely destroys the meat. It tastes disgusting, like it has been soaking in its own tub of liquid fat for three days before they cooked it. The substance the comes off of the pork took three times of aggressive hand washing with hot water and dish soap to remove from my hands. This is the stuff heart failure is made of. I love pork, love it, but the pork here is a living nightmare. Just smelling that scent of that fat/grease/oil while I'm typing this is making me want to vomit. The chicken and carne asada are both acceptable, so I'll be sticking to those in the future. Super nachos were probably the best item I've had so far, but the tacos were great as well. read more

I got a bean and cheese burrito. I usually don't complain about too much cheese but wow these burritos were 75% cheese and 25% beans. I ended up not eating the whole thing. Maybe other burritos with meat are better? The flavor of the beans were good it's just the amount of cheese that killed it for me. read more

This place by far is the best Mexican restaurant in the community, Amazing customer service, great hospitality, Great Taste of food, very clean facility, If you're looking for authentic Mexican Cuisine don't look no further give these people a try, the food is simply amazing I haven't got anything from this establishment that I didn't like and the only reason I given this place 4 stars is because I have came up with a kingly burger that I believe they should be on the menu and they should start serving breakfast tacos. I would have to get with the owner on that note but if you're looking to be satisfied and to feel like you're spending your money in a good place and you're going to get full, give these people a try. read more

DISCLAIMER: I sincerely hope that by reading this review, I do not over hype this place for you, because it is seriously as good as it gets for me at this spot! I'm a firm believer and not going to the same restaurant more than once because I live in LA and I am fortunate enough to have so many choices, that are actually worth it! That being said, I can get past convenience, and this place does it for being so close to work. So that's one star off the bat. The servers are nothing short of friendly, helpful and just patient, with a fickle person like me who gets overwhelmed with so many good choices. That's another star! Being in LA, you'd be surprised how I always end up finding parking, I think this is because 1) they aren't that easy to find (the first time - they are almost at the corner in between a clothing store and little mercardo). Their parking varies between metered and just plain street parking so I definitely recommend them for lunch mostly. Another star for always getting street parking. Okay and now on to the food. I've come here at least 5 times already before making this review, so it's safe to say - THIS PLACE IS AS GOOD AS IT GETS! Breakfast - I love their chilaquiles! and their breakfast combo is so cheap! $4.99 for a full to-go Styrofoam box and they can make your eggs any way you want it. Plus it comes with a drink !! I always end up eating half for breakfast and half for lunch cause its so much. So $5 gets you two meals and a drink. And surprisingly their chilaquiles isn't too greasy like other places i've had it so an additional plus I always get their tacos for lunch and just try to change it up but i always have to get at least one of my tacos CHARRO STYLE. Charro Style is basically kind of like fajita but better - they add guacamole, onions, and the very best part YUMMY NAPOLES (grilled/pan cooked cactus) - AL PASTOR - bomb bomb bomb !! My favorite! I recommend, reminds me of adobada. - ASADA - your normal asada, nothing too special, but in that regard, it wasn't bad and i always order one of these - BIRRIA DE RES - not my fave! rather salty....after the first time, i stay away from this. - CARNITAS - nice and juicy - which is supposed to be standard but you'd be surprised how many places dry it out. So definitely try it here! - LENGUA - my boss ONLY orders this, and it is soft and not rubbery it all! nommm! read more

El Charro Restaurant - Charro style !! - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Disgusting fajitas. Absolute garbage. Go somewhere else. What a horrible experience. Get the fajitas and you'll see. Gross.

I'll start with this: I always want to love Mexican places. It's a great feeling finding a solid nearby restaurant with great Mexican good. Sadly, this place isn't one of those finds for me. 1. Online ordering, no tacos available Neither through the Postmates app or the Yelp app are you add tacos to your order. Maybe it's a bug the will fix in the future, but until then no tacos :( 2. Nachos- regular shredded cheddar cheese, not nacho cheese. Pro: Chips stay pretty crunchy. (I would prefer nacho cheese, but that's just personal preference.) 3. Burrito (ordered: carnitas burrito with no beans) is more like a big wrapped soft taco. It's just okay. There's a fair amount of lettuce inside and tomato/onion and unmelted shredded cheddar cheese so honestly it reminds me of a classic Del Taco hard taco. Carnitas seemed okay but I was distracted by everything else. Would try asking for no lettuce next time, if any. 4. Shrimp taco - ONLY ONE PIECE OF SHRIMP. Really? One silver dollar size fried shrimp per taco? Your first bite has one shrimp. Your second bite has no shrimp :( Also a little heavy handed on the sauce imo. 5. Online ordering tip: ask for extra sauce We ordered food for 2-3 people and only received one red sauce and one green sauce, wasn't enough *Note - I've heard the shredded beef taquitos are good. I would potentially try in the future read more

I hosted brunch last Sunday and last minute decided that I would order delivery and picked this place because they had breakfast burritos and were open early. I was pleasantly surprised by the entire experience. My delivery was timely and I received all my items (if you've ever made a big order you know how big a deal this is). I ordered bacon and chorizo breakfast burritos which were huge and even after cutting them in half were still very filling! The burritos were a hit with my group and many people requested the restaurant info from me. Each burrito came with a free drink which was a nice addition. The only reason I'm giving them 4 stars instead of 5 is because they didn't have a veggie breakfast burrito option so I just ordered regular veggie burritos and there was much to be desired. It was filled with peppers, onion, cheese and guacamole but really didn't have a flavor at all. I would have loved to see some mushrooms, potatoes/rice and beans included. I'll definitely order from them again but will skip the veggie option. read more

The taco places are very competitive in los Angeles. And having been to several locations, i can say that they are pretty much similar in price and offering. This location allows you to add your own toppings and they allow one free refill of horchata. The taste of the meat is favorful. I really enjoyed my lunch here. However there is no parking lot so only street parking. read more

The sauce on the tacos was also very good, it gave the food a tangy flavor that I really liked. The food was ready within the estimated time. Overall great service!
