    VEGAN. 100% I'm Back!!!!! I was feeling a little down today. Why I don't know. Probably just menopause hormones. Nothing like some good meatball soup to balance out your hormones ‍ The young lady who is the waitress here is so sweet. She always recommend something. She remembered me when I came with my sister. I tried something different today. I got the jackfruit tacos and soup. Don't judge soup went home. Very good There is soft music playing. The older gentleman that sits at the first table when you walk in the door. seems to be a little, not too friendly when I come in. He is always watching TV. It is on a Spanish speaking station. He did turn the volume down once I came in which he didn't have to do. I will always say Hello and Goodbye. Until next time La Charritta

    Super cute mexican eatery that features a full on vegan page in their menu!! So happy !! I started with an agua fresca made fresh in house. It was fresh and delightful- I saved half for my dessert, very sweet. I ordered the vegan verde with jackfruit. It was really good but way too big! I took almost half home and ate it for lunch the next day (still delicious BTW). It did taste super salty to the point I think maybe there was a mishap especially because my companion's meal was not salty so the contrast was significant. My companion ordered sopes and that plate was good! Service was prompt and courteous. If I lived here I would likely be a regular:) So grateful for proprietors who consider plant based offerings!

    You don't find places like this often. It really did feel like authentic Mexican food! Overall, From the vibes (calm, relaxing, the music), how you're greeted and feel welcomed, to the food. The food feels light and fresh! And that guacamole was top notch! Will definitely be returning! We got the sopes and camarones con carne! **Maybe a little more salt and taste to the beans is all!

    Loaded Vegan Breakfast Burrito
    Val L.

    AMAZING flavors and an EXCELLENT menu with so many options! This food instantly transported me back to abuelita's kitchen--extra special yet beautifully simple, traditional, and genuine. I love the boss woman running the front with perfect service and attention to every detail, and then from the kitchen emerges an angel with the most mouthwatering, authentic food you can imagine at a perfectly hot temperature. The service here is warm, attentive, and flawless. Their super vegan specialty menu blew me away--extensive, creative, and full of choices (which is rare and SO appreciated!). My husband had the loaded breakfast burrito packed with tater tots and bursting with homemade flavor, while I enjoyed the Enchiladas Suizas with the most incredible green enchilada sauce. Both plates were absolutely delicious, hearty, and so satisfying. The portions are generous, and everything tasted fresh and authentic. Bonus points: the bathroom was immaculate. All around, it's a 10/10 experience. We can't wait to come back and try EVERYTHING on the menu! Highly recommend for anyone who loves authentic Mexican food, excellent service, and a welcoming atmosphere!!

    Pollo en Mole Plate
    Danielle F.

    This place was a definitely a pleasant surprise! I'm never really fond of going to Mexican Restaurants as most can taste to Americanized. But this place captured the flavors perfectly! The restaurant is not too big. We had a big group and walked in and they were able to seat us right away during lunch time on a Saturday. Firstly, they have a good menu with plenty of choices. They even had a full vegan menu. I ended up choosing the Pollo en Mole Plate. The rice and beans were one of the best beans and rice I've had in a really long time. The mole's flavor had so much personality. The chicken was good, but my personal preference is too have it off the bone so if you are like me that is your heads up. The size of the plate is good for one. My friends did split a burrito so if you are looking to share I'd go for a burrito. Their guava drink was a also pretty good. The salsa was spicy and bomb! The service was good. To get the food it did take a little bit, but it was worth the wait. All my friends loved their plates too, so I don't think you can go wrong with anything here.

    Omg the vegan meatball soup was so yummy! Full of fresh veggies and vegan meatball soup. The lemon is the perfect add on to bring all the flavor of the soup together . We been coming here for over two years and I have to say it's the little gem of Valencia! If you haven't been it's a must !

    Very cute restaurant. Parking is a little small but you can find parking. The staff is very nice. Food was good. A lot of options. I had chicken sopes. Very tasty. They have a lot of vegan options which was awesome since we went with friends who are vegan.

    Vegan tacos de adobo
    Evelyn H.

    I'm not vegan but I enjoy eating delicious vegan food with my vegan bestie and this place really hit the spot! The environment is very cozy and traditional, the service was great, and the food was absolutely OUTSTANDING!! Ordered the vegan sopes and the taco plate, both with adobo protein and I kid you not it was probably the best adobo I've tasted. All the flavors come together so well and make you wanting more. I envy Santa Clarita for having this gem in their city. Hoping they can open one in the OC area.

    We have eaten take out from La Charrita and eaten inside the restaurant, and our experience was lovely both times. The food is very flavorful and the portions are very big. We've had the burrito, flautas, enchiladas, and pozole. The pozole was my absolute favorite, it was so incredibly delicious and I honestly will be ordering every time we return while it's cooler outside. The staff was helpful and food arrived quick. The restaurant is a standard place with plenty of seating. We will definitely be returning and this is top of our list for Hispanic food in the SCV area!

I only saw a bar tender who doubled as a server, and one busman in the front of house. I don't know how many were in the back, but this explains why the wait was so very long. Once seated, it was another 15 minutes to get our orders in. Once the food arrived, it was served hot as expected. My friend's chicken chipotle was delicious but my birria wasn't great. There wasn't much of it, and what was there was largely tasteless. I was given two tortillas which wasn't enough. Their salsa was outstanding though! I wanted more of that and practically drank it. Unfortunately, given my experiences, I won't go back. Management needs to hire some employees so the wait won't be so long.

I'm sharing this because I would strongly recommend that customers check the final amount that posts to their card after dining here. Our group split the bill between two credit cards. Our friends covered the 20% tip for the entire table on their card to even out what we each owed. I specifically remember crossing out the tip line on our receipt because we had discussed with our friends that they were covering the tip. The next day, when our credit card charge posted, we noticed that an additional $40 had been added to our card as a tip. Our server was Oliver. My husband immediately called the restaurant and spoke with a manager, Luis. Luis was very nice and professional about the situation. He was able to look at the restaurant's copy of our receipt and agreed to refund the $40. He also offered us complimentary margaritas if we came back, which we appreciated. The filet mignon tacos were good, and I appreciate how Luis handled our call, but after this experience I don't think we would feel comfortable returning.
