El Charro Mexican Dining - Lafayette

Last Saturday night, my wife and I accidentally ended up at El Charro. She had actually intended to go to El Jarro, but we ended up at the wrong Mexican restaurant on the same street. The restaurant was busy, but unfortunately, we were disappointed with our experience. The service was slow due to understaffing, and it took 45 minutes for our food to arrive. The waiters were pleasant, but once our food was served, we didn't see them again. The food was mediocre, with a super burrito that had a strange sweet filling, bland refried beans and guacamole, and an enchilada that was mostly sauce. Overall, we were seriously disappointed with our meal and will be more careful about checking the name of a restaurant before going there next time.

Huge portions and very good very large margaritas. Very nice staff.

And the food and the apmosphere is as good today as it was when I was 10. They have updated, but it will always be home.

This Mexican restaurant has always been a family favorite and when my dad asked to go here to celebrate his birthday i was more than happy to oblige. Service is courteous, the food is delicious and we have never been disappointed. My grandmother would always have a Margarita and I follow suit in her absence, she was a sensible lady.
