They are so busy, at times, they do not accept take out orders. We ordered take out and there was a line right to the door waiting to be seated. The tables were full and it was not even 5pm on Saturday. The waiting area is decent, but can get crowded in the front hallways section. The restaurant is a bit dark, in fact, we had a hard time reading the receipt in the waiting area to complete it. Plenting of seating, a lot of booths. Very clean. LOL The staff members were definitely hustling - moving quickly to serve and clear tables and address people getting take out (us). The food tastes fresh and not overly seasoned. I was surprised at how mild, almost dull some of the meats were, with the exception of the delicious chorizo chimichanga. The pulled pork and the chicken, definitely needed the sauces and salsas that come with it. Warning, if you are not fan of cilantro, you may want to ask before ordering, as some of the items have it automatically added and cooked with it. There is plenty of food with every order, including chips and salsa to go. We definitely will be back and hope to have dinner at the restaurant sometime.

Drinks came some time later and for the first time in my adult life - I sent mine back. No hint of lime nor tequila. It was like a flavorless snow cone. Food finally came and the food wasn't what we ordered. Close enough. Blandest "authentic Mexican" food you'll ever eat. Service was sporadic, building needs a paint job, but the waitress was nice. Probably won't go back.

My daughter and I made the "choose your own combo." We we're both excited to see pork tamales on the menu. She matched hers with a crunchy taco and I paired mine with a shredded beef burrito. The place was hopping and I was worried the food would take a long time. Nope. The food came out hot, fresh and fast. Accompanied by creamy, perfectly spiced refried beans topped with gooey melted cheese, I could eat my weight in the beans alone. The tamale was moist, filled with tender seasoned pork covered in the perfect red sauce, it was everything my tastebuds wanted! I could go on forever about the shredded beef burrito. The meat was melt in your mouth tender, seasoned to perfection. The portion was just the right size for me. My daughter wolfed down her taco in three bites practically! She loved it! The meal started off with complimentary chips and homemade salsa. The salsa was tomatoey, garlicky, not too spicy and served chilled on the side with individual dipping bowls. The chips were warm, crispy, and salted. We had to pace ourselves so we saved room for our dinner. The restaurant itself is in a former chain establishment but you'd never know it by the warm decor, fun atmosphere and fast friendly service. Maine's Capitol city needed a place like this.

The drinks are wonderful, it's a clean bar the ambiance is wonderful the details (art, decor, ceiling star lights, comfortable chairs) was a highlight Plenty of wonderful tequila options Frozen cocktails Late night menu Mexican cokes (my fave) The bartenders are really sweet and do a great job. I would suggest on a busy karaoke night two buy one or two big watering jugs on both corners of bar so it can help flow of service The right speaker by the bar sound needed to be lower so it doesn't blow the sound out and the bathrooms were clean the sound for karaoke in the bathroom was loud so I would probably lower that as well but beyond happy with the experience went with my local friends we all work around town and were so excited there was a late night option with good amount of space and entertainment. I hope they do this weekly or monthly we will be back love chips and salsa can't wait to try all of the food!

The food doesn't just look good it actually tastes amazing. Everything is well seasoned, fresh, and full of flavor. The fajitas come to the table hot and sizzling, and even the vegetables taste fresh and perfectly cooked instead of being soft or overdone. And the guacamole... SO good! Fresh, creamy, flavorful, and easily one of my favorite things on the menu. There's also a great selection to choose from, so whether you're in the mood for fajitas, tacos, or something different, there are plenty of options. On our second visit, we brought my niece and her boyfriend along to celebrate, and they enjoyed it just as much as we did. The staff has been friendly and attentive both times, and I really appreciate that the manager makes a point to come around, interact with customers, and make sure everyone is enjoying themselves. He has a great personality, a wonderful sense of humor, and adds to the whole experience. Good food is one thing, but when you combine really flavorful food with great service and a welcoming atmosphere, that's what makes you want to come back. Charros has definitely earned a spot on our regular rotation. If you haven't tried it yet, give it a chance and definitely get the guacamole!
