I tried El Churro for first time today. A bit pricey but overall pricey but good flavors. s I selected “No beans” for both dishes. I ordered Chimi-Pollo Arizona with Sonoran rice and Enchis-Queso with blanco or white rice (a few brief descriptions use white rice but others use Blanco to describe). Blanco rice was excellent (cooked in a broth so was flavorful) the Sonoran rice was basically Spanish rice with carrots and peas (never had them in a Spanish rice before and didn’t like it). The Chimichanga was Queso style which only came with about 1 Tablespoon of sauce and the enchiladas had green sauce. The entrees cam is a type of what looked like recycled card board and had a plastic top and and the card board stuck to the entrees (the Chimi had foil in between but still stuck) and even the plastic knife cut through it so had to transfer to a regular plate. These came with a paper sack of home made chips and cup of salsa and plastic containers—one was half pico de gallo and half guacamole and the other was all pico de gallo (one weird thing was the lettuce under the pico de gallo—I’d suggest getting rid of the lettuce and ASK if someone wants the half and half or all pico as I HATE guacamole!). Other suggestions is to re-do the site and unify descriptions (such as the White/Blanco issue) and add brief descriptions of each style like what is the difference between Grilled chicken/Pollo Arizona/Pollo al Pastor?Also proof read for typos (in the category of Crisps the category has “Crips”). Overall I’ll order again on occasion but the prices would cut into how often.

The chopped salad was excellent. It was delivered with the fruit, dressing, and chicken on the side which made everything fresh when we mixed it. We also had the cheese quesadilla - and it was good, recommend requesting some sour cream or guacamole. For dessert we had the mini-apple chimmies and they were also excellent. Will order here again.

My vegan enchilada is not an enchilada and has no vegan cheese. Not sure what this is supposed to be. It's just some flat stacked corn tortillas with most of the described ingredients, but no cheese, which is what drew me to it. It looks nothing like their photo and is not worth what l paid for it. Very disappointing.

Everything was delicious and the bad was sealed well for safety. The quesobirria mini chimis are so good and one of my favorites every time!
