Went there for my in law's anniversary and we had the best time! One of the waiters was amazing and very friendly to our family. Thank you so much!
Also, I love the chicken chimichangas! The best I've ever had! -

We went for a birthday dinner on Sat. 6/22/19. 6:30pm reservation. They had a nice table ready for us. When they finally took our drink order anyone that wanted water had to wait until all alcoholic drinks had been delivered and we had to ask again. Getting water and water refills was a huge issue.
The waitress was nice but acted like she was doing us a favor with anything. We asked if they could make a wine margarita. The waitress said she didn't see why not. She brought us a glass of wine and a virgin margarita each. That is not a wine margarita. And that meant we paid for 2 drinks each. Would never have ordered it that way.
When I made the reservation they asked if it was for a special occasion. I said it was a birthday. When we decided not to order any dessert just the kids had their ice cream that came with their meal, I guess our waitress decided we didn't need to do the birthday celebration sundae that we should have received.
Extremely disappointed with the service and the quality of the food. We paid over $300. for a very poor birthday dinner for 8 adults and 4 little kids. -

Went here on a Saturday morning at opening. I was seated right away and drinks were brought very quickly along with chips and salsa. Order was taken and food came out hot. I tried fish tacos which were very good. 3 tacos and no breading on the fish. Fish was cooked really well and tacos came with a heaping serving of guacamole, beans and rice. All was very good. I would definitely come here again and if you're in the area I would recommend to give it a try.
Restaurant is pretty big with a lot of seating. Prices were reasonable, nothing to complain about. Server was attentive and friendly. -

Came here with a girlfriend for the first time since we were both in the mood for Mexican food and were in the area. We ordered the lunch special combo with a choice of two selections and a Caesar salad. We both ordered the cheese enchilada and pork tamale with a tropical ice tea. The chips and salsa were delicious! Our entrees were equally delicious! If I had one complaint it would be that I would have liked the food to be a bit hotter. It was warm but not hot. The warm plate also made the salad warm since it is served on the same platter. I would recommend serving it separately and not on the same platter. I would definitely come back when I'm in the area.

El Cholo is such a rip off. Paid $36.21 for 4 tacos, Margarita, and Ice Tea. Tacos are average, your a mexican restaurant and can't make decent tacos. I could have gone to a taco truck and gotten 18 tacos and a soda for that price and they would have been 10x better. Wait next time I will. Adios El Hombre.
