The seafood (fish & shrimp) tacos on flour shells were awesome! I really liked them. My husband had the Chimichanga lunch and he thought it was very good. Second visit I had the Lunch #1. The chili relleno was very good, the taco was pretty blah. My friend had the Toledo Burrito and really liked it. Our server was nice but a little occupied with his phone on our second visit. The free chips and salsa were excellent each visit.

I rarely go for Mexican food outside of Texas, but on a recent business trip my local colleagues…read morehighly recommended Los Charros for lunch - so why not? I was pleased with the variety of selections they offer. I chose the Burrito Chorizo. Wrapped in a large flour tortilla and topped with ranchero sauce & cheese, the fillings were generous and included rice, beans, ground meat and, of course, the namesake chorizo. Served with lettuce and guacamole on the side, the meal was ample and quite tasty. My favorite Mexican restaurants in Texas make their tortillas in-house - the tortilla here had the texture and flavor of pre-prepared. Not a big deal, but I did notice the difference. Because this was a business lunch, I was not able to try one of the key items on which I base my impressions of Mexican restaurants - no margarita for me this visit. The iced tea substitute was just OK. Of course, our meal was preceded with complimentary chips and salsa. The chips were fresh and crispy, but the salsa lacked any meaningful heat - but, hey, this is Iowa, not Texas. Although not spicy it did have nice flavor. I'd be remiss if I didn't offer kudos to our server, a very pleasant young man who answered all of our questions with ease. Thanks to Los Charros, I am reconsidering my "no Mexican food outside of Texas rule." I liked it. Well done!

When my party of 8 arrived it wasn't busy. So it is a mystery as to why the service was so slow…read more Some of our dishes arrived incorrectly (chicken tacos with corn tortillas arrived as beef with flour e.g). The rice and beans and other sides that are included with dinners didn't show up so we had to ask for them. And my daughter's sides never arrived at all. We simply gave up asking. The food was really salty. Not seasoned well.... Just salty. The guacamole tasted like a standard mix without any actual fresh avocado in it. The margaritas were a weak mix from a bottle. Sadly I was hoping for some tasty Mexican food but did not find it at this place. The staff was friendly though and the food was inexpensive.

The food is absolutely amazing - best Mexican food I've ever had. Very fresh and flavorful with generous portions. In Marshalltown for business and I ate there 3 (!) times it was that good. The tropical salmon crunch bowl is full of fresh vegetables, perfectly grilled salmon and a crunchy slightly fruity sauce. Jody's shrimp tacos were packed with juicy shrimp and pineapple. Everything was sizzling hot and really fresh and flavorful. Highly recommend!
