Chorizo tacos
Sylvia M.

I ordered asada and chorizo tacos. They had so much flavor! The red and green sauces they have compliment them so well. My husband got the steak burrito. The flavor of the burrito was okay. The guacamole was out of this world! I didn't like how we had to buy chips and salsa. But the staff was very friendly and we got our food very quickly!

The service was great she was patient and helped us to make our orders. The aguas frescas were so delicious that even the agua de pepino was a surprise going beyond with the tajin on the cup. They also have sodas and kids juices. The food was great I just believe the meats tasted either the same or cooked in the same place or needed to be switched to make the other food taste even better. For example the Al pastor tasted exactly the same as the chorizo. The grilled chicken on my sope should of been on the enchiladas instead and that tinga chicken should be on the sopes. Everything else was good it was tasty. They have 4 servings on different kind of salas on your like. They are in constant contact if your need anything else. You order before you get seated. We got desert And the guava cheesecake to die for!! It was freaking delicious and soooo good we wanted more we think about even as passing by that's how good it is.

Fajitas, sopas, enchiladas

Great place to eat! The salsa was really good. Our food was hot and fresh with large portions. They also have an amazing buffet. Service was wonderful and food really affordable! Highly Recommend!!!

Fajita trio!

Charly's is a top-three Mexican restaurant in NWA. It's super divey, but the food quality and value makes Charly's a must visit. First of all, I should say that I've been to my fair share of taquerias in Springdale - 15 of them to be exact. I'm completely comfortable going to a restaurant where almost no English is spoken and the food is strictly Mexican (not Tex Mex), but for those who have only been to English speaking or Tex Mex restaurants, Charly's is a great place to introduce you to the wonderful world of taquerias. You'll find menu items you're familiar with, but there are also items you won't find in Tex Mex restaurants that are really delicious. I'm a huge fan of Charly's meats. Their asada might be my favorite in the area. Their guacamole is also a favorite of mine. Their tortillas probably rank somewhere in the middle for me as far as NWA taquerias go, but the overall quality of their food compensates for this. The restaurant is always clean, and the staff has always been friendly and helpful. It's definitely a dive, so the atmosphere is cool but laid back. Spanish language music is usually playing, and they do have a jukebox. Do yourself a favor, NWA, and make the trip to Springdale to try Charly's

So I am a 100% Mexican and this place was OK but I felt like my meat was too thick and then they make handmade corn tortillas and they felt like they were not fresh and they were like thicker than normal. And I had a Michelada it was OK my husband had Chile Verde he likes liked it but he likes any food anyways I personally won't go back I'm not saying don't go the girls that work there Are very sweet they were very helpful. But I did see a lot of Latinos there so I guess it just depends on your taste buds

The service provided here was really good Food was very tasty and good quantity provided Would definitely visit this place once back to Springdale

Steak Taco
Quinta E.

I had the strawberry horchata and the carne tacos. Id like to state that I had 4 tacos and the total came out to be $10. I would also like to add that they don't do 99¢ tacos, which I wish they had. The strawberry horchata was ok and the steak tacos were ok as well. The inside of the taqueria isn't really up to par but overall it was an okay experience. We went pretty late around 9:00 and there were no customers. They do have chocolate covered strawberries that I want to try out though!

Chicken flautas
Mary S.

Lunch for 2. Charly's is a fast casual where you order at the window and they give you a number at your table. The place was busy with the line all they way to the door and people kept coming in! They had a very wide variety foods with easy to order pictures and prices on the wall. The dining area was clean and the service was good. I ordered chicken flautas and my friend ordered 2 big tacos. The food came out quick considering the full house. It was plated well and the food looked mostly fresh. I say mostly fresh because the cilantro and lettuce looked like they've been sitting out for a bit - hence the minus one star. The beans were the best beans I've ever had and the rice was nice and fluffy. I would definitely come back here again when I'm in the area.

Al Pastor and Chorizo Burrito, perfectly layered and flavored.
Kasey U.

My boyfriend and I have eaten here countless times. While other taquerias in the downtown Springdale area are really good as well, Charley's really does it right. It's a nice feel, nothing to nice which is what I like, but it's not a self-service either, the waitress' that we have had are always extremely nice! We usually go for the burritos, because they never skimp you on the meat. The flavor combination and simplicity of Charley's will always keep me coming back. They know how to do authentic Mexican food.

Yummy guacamole $2.99 sooo good!
Susan B.

Excellent, authentic Mexican street food. Everything I've ordered here is delicious! Fast service and friendly staff. Highly recommend the guacamole and plate of 3 tacos (Carnitas, El Pastor, Chicken). They have a little hidden salsa bar, too. Only negative is no unsweet tea (sweet only).

Robert S.

Love this place. Always excellent food. Soles and burritos are awesome. As always, Stupid app wants a longer review, don't really know what else to say so now I'm just writing whatever comes to mind in order to make this review long enough.

Pork/Steak/Chicken tacos
John R.

Best tacos I've had in Arkansas. Reminded me street taqueria I went to in Dallas. Very nice staff and the tacos were delicious.

Carne Asada tacos and the nectar of the gods, Modelo with lime and salt! You know if a Mexican is eating here it's authentic!

I ordered the chile relleno and my friend ordered a tamale and some chicken taquitos. My friend endorses the taquitos and reported that they were flavorful and crunchy. Salsa and chips are complimentary and the salsa was pretty decent. The tamale was okay, but not the best she or I have ever had. As far as the chile relleno goes, the salsa was flavorful, but the batter was pretty soggy all around. The rice was flavorful and had a great texture to it, though the frijoles refritos tasted like they were possibly from a can or mass-produced. The beans felt and looked like soup. I also noticed that the shredded cheese placed on top of both the chile y tamale was not melted. When reheated, the cheese held its position. Several birthday parties were being celebrated in the restaurant while we were there, and the staff and owner made sure that the birthday party crowds were celebrated by clapping and singing which was sweet and made the whole place feel festive! I intend to go back and try some other dishes to determine if some authenticity shines through other dishes/plates.

After a quick elevator ride up to the second floor of the building, the entrance to Taco is very quaint and welcoming. They have a very nice patio area with about 5 tables that overlooks the Main Street that runs through downtown Springdale. We were seated inside, and served very quickly. The queso dip was absolutely amazing, and the margarita flight was an absolute banger. The reason I'm giving this 4 stars instead of 5 is due to the aisle size and not being the most kid friendly. The aisles are quite thin and we got bumped a few times by passing patrons.
