El Charro is a family-operated restaurant that's been serving delicious and authentic Mexican fare since 1991. It all began when Jose Luis Melendez opened the first location in Houston, Tx. Since then…
OMG this is the best feel-good Chicken Soup I've ever had! You get two whole pieces per order and the broth really does heal what ails you. The #7 Tex-Mex Plate is just like you remember from childhood, though I didn't like Mexican food until I was about 16 ha ha.

Food arrived fast and still warm! Both plates were full of food. (I tipped the macadado plate so the beans spread over the eggs part.) Very good flavor on both the Machacado and Eggs Plate and eggs and Bacon and Eggs Plate with added sausage patty! The green sauce is not spicy but the red sauce has a little spice. Definitely will order breakfast from El Charro again!

The menudo is aways good and flavorful! Can't miss with the yummy gorditas de fajita and beans. I don'tcare for the tortillas because there are not fresh, but I love this restaurant. The portion sizes are just right. I, definitely, recommend this restaurant for authentic Mexican food.

The food was really good and the portions were really big for the price. The Guacamole was really well seasoned and the beans were full of meat and really filling.
