El Charro Johnson City Reviews
The al pastor here is extremely good. Had it with the torta I will without a doubt reccomend it. Their horchata needs to he studied on how good it is. I will go out of my way to visit this place again.
So glad we came to this place and not the other restaurant down the street. The food came out fast and you get a big portion. We had: Fish Mojorra 9/10 - fried perfectly, the sides were meh Barbacoa meal 8/10 - a little bland but it was so soft ! Chicharrones taco - 9/10 - soft and crispy at the same time, wish I had some toppings though Pastor taco - 10/10 so flavorful Sopapillas - not bad 7/10, nothing to note I had the drink in a bowl and that was super refreshing. It was the server’s first time making it and she made it well. If I ever come back in the area, I’d definitely fingers again. The food prices was 10/10 :)
Incredible Tex Mex Adorable drive through. Quick food. I will be making it a priority to eat here every time. 15/10
First time here. Very nice place. Food was amazing.
We enjoy breakfast and dinner here while staying at the RV park. Question, what is the warm, soup like salsa served with Huevos Rancheros? Very spicy
First visit. Great food, great service, great coffee. The pork chop was the best I've had in a looking time. Opinions may vary but it reminded me of my grandmothers cooking. Not only was the coffee hot and fresh but the cups were the heavy, thick ceramic kind that I much prefer. Edited: Food is still great, coffe kept full. Try the enchiladas with eggs.
This place is really good. I put it against any Mexican restaurant in Austin. It would beat out a lot of them out. The prices here are very reasonable too. I had their street tacos and lemonade. They were freaking awesome. The lady that took care of us was super friendly and the cook was funny. We could hear him singing while he prepared our food. Happy cook great food.
Good food, decent prices, our waitress sucked, but all the others seemed good
Great food we got there at closing time and the staff went out of their way to accommodate us
Quaint little small town Mexican restaurant in an older building. The chips are fresh and hot and sometimes tastes like they're fresh out of the fryer.... They're not the store-bought chips did you get it most Mexican places. The fajitas come sizzling as they should and the Margaritas taste a little bit syrupy. I've had better margaritas. Service is quick and you pay at the counter.
I have major issues with walking, so I try to park as close to the door as possible. I came in to eat and management told me I was blocking the drive thru, I wasn’t. I moved my truck like I was asked….to another restaurant and gave my server a $6.00 tip on a $18.00 lunch. He had the right to run his business as he sees fit, be kinder to those with mobility issues.
