Tasty food and served quickly . My girlfriend and I got the Fajitas with Chicken, shrimp and steak. We enjoyed bite after bite until we couldn't. From start to finish, we loved our time here

Fajitas Texanas for 2
Savannah A.

Everyone we run into in town keeps recommending El Charolais, so we know we had to give it a try. The food does not disappoint!! This place stays busy, but no worries if the main parking lot is full- you can also park across the street in a gravel lot. We were impressed by how many people could be seated at once in the restaurant. We came around 6:30 on a Saturday night, had to park in the gravel lot, but were still able to be seated without a wait. The peach margarita was fantastic- you could actually taste the peach- and my husband was ecstatic they had Coke Zero. (Most of Elizabethton only serves Diet Coke.) The food was great as well. Delicious, a great cost, and large portions. We ordered the Fajitas Texanas for two, and we still brought a serving home for leftovers. Service was a little slow; however, the restaurant was busy and most places are understaffed right now, so I'd say give grace as far as that's concerned. We'll definitely be back soon, and we think you should too!

The wait was short, place is clean and comfy. Staff was friendly and attentive. The food was AWESOME! Food was out really quick. We got the Fajitas Texanas and it was loaded!!! Also got Pollo Sabroso and it was the best I've ever tasted anywhere! And it was also loaded! I will definitely come back.

We were warmly greeted when we came into the restaurant. It was very tastefully decorated, light and airy, and all of the servers were dressed in white shirts and black pants and vests. Our server was excellent, and funny. After he took our order, he assured us he would be back in an hour. We were served warm tortilla chips and bean dip. The salsa bar boasted of several house-made salsas and sauces, and I tried the standard, the tomatillo, and the avocado sauce. All three were excellent. My margarita came out with a bushel of various fruits on top, and was delicious and refreshing to the very last drop. I can't be sure, but it tasted hand-crafted and not from a mix. For dinner I had Pollo Fundido and it was excellent.Cooked to perfection, generous with the cheese sauce, and served sizzling hot. My husband had a fajita quesadilla. Both of us had far more food than we could eat and were only disappointed that we did not have room for the several excellent desserts on the menu. Love this place! We will be back!!

That is really all I can say positive about our trip. Cheese dip was way too greasy and had very little chorizo in it. Guacamole, according to menu, was made to order. It was definatley not made after I ordered it. First off, it was sitting on my table less than 5 minutes after I ordered it. The avocados were brown and the guacamole had very little flavor at all. Quesadilla had onions and peppers in it even though waiter repeated back to my wife chicken and cheese only. Margarita was very weak We had one cheese dip, one order of guacamole, one quesadilla, and one margarita. Our check was $50. I have ate at ALOT of Mexican restaraunts. It is by far my favorite food to eat. I have been to Mexico 5 times and have eaten there as well. Table side guacamole is my favorite thing to eat at a Mexican restaurant period. After our visit last Sunday, I just felt that I needed to share how horrible it was. Feedback is how problems are fixed.

There is handicapped parking close to the entrance door, so just watch as you are crossing the traffic lane. The host/ hostess counter is directly in front as you enter. We were greeted right away and taken to a booth. One bench cover was torn and the table had an annoying wiggle every time you changed positions. We also noticed the overhead music was slightly too loud. There were several other groups eating and we heard their conversations as they tried to talk over the music. Our server was very friendly and did his job well. He took our drink order and then gave us the right amount of time to make our selections. We received the chips and salsa just before our drinks arrived. The food took no more than 15 minutes after we placed the order to arrive. The salsa was disappointing. It had a strong tomato paste flavor. There were bits of onion and a few pieces of cilantro but neither of those flavors made it through. The carnitas was pretty good. The amount of pork was a bit less than expected but the flavor was good and it was very tender. The rice and refried beans were average at best. The salad was nice, with fresh lettuce, avocado and jalapeno slices, and tomatoes. The chicken and shrimp was also pretty good. The chicken had nice seasoning even without the cheese sauce and the shrimp was cooked perfectly. This dish had the same rice and refried beans. BTW, the accompanying tortillas were hot, so be careful as you unroll them. Other than the excellent service, the best part of this experience was the salsa bar. There were about eight different salsas to chose from. Each had a unique flavor and ranged in consistency from pico to creamy. One pico even included cactus. Any of these salsas were an improvement over the initial salsa and also made a great addition to the main meals. The bottom line for me is this is an average Mexican restaurant with above average service and salsa bar.

Had a great time with family (party if 14) with great service. Plenty of choices for the plain…read moretaco folks and those of us that prefer a little more authentic. Molcajete was on point.
