The sign is what actually caught our attention and the fact that it is "modern Mexican" makes it even better. The food is good and we were quickly met with the typical chips, salsa and white sauce. We ordered the elote dip, which was filling. Then we shared some tacos, which was plenty of food for a couple of people that just got done spending the early afternoon snowboarding. The drinks were tasty and strong and I thoroughly enjoyed the indoor decor. Very pretty place to have an early dinner.

I was traveling through town and staying next-door. The front desk recommended this place and I am…read moreso happy that they did. I came on Valentine's Day and they were absolutely packed. I placed an order online and they had it ready sooner than they anticipated, even with a full restaurant. While I was waiting, I watched the plates being carried out to tables and everything looked amazing. When I got back to my hotel and opened my bag I was beyond excited! They offer great portion sizes and everything was incredible. The veggies were crisp and the chicken was cooked perfectly. My photo does not do my food justice, but I was just too excited to eat to wait to take another. I will definitely be back!

I fly out of Dulles airport at least once a month period so at least once a month I drive past and stop at El Charo. This is a pretty high compliment considering I I am from Arizona and we have a plethora of great Mexican food!

Parking: there was a good number of parking spaces when we went! However, if there are a lot of…read morepeople, I could see it getting tight. Seating: there's not a ton of seating. When it gets packed, I can see people just taking the food to-go. There were 4 round picnic tables for people to eat on. However, other than that, there weren't a lot of places to sit and eat. The ambiance is very chill and casual! Food: the food was really good! I got the chicken burrito and I really enjoyed it! My fiancé got the steak quesadilla and he really enjoyed his too! We obviously shared our food and enjoyed each others as well! Bathroom: unfortunately, because it is a food truck, there were no restrooms. So I suggest you use the bathroom before going to get food! Price: the price was normal! It wasn't crazy expensive, like some places, which is another reason I really enjoyed this food truck!! It tasted great & it wasn't overly pricey! Service: the guy who took our order was kind and made it a pleasant experience! :)

BTW the bar is beautiful with plenty of leather barstool backs and handcrafted wooden tables and stools. I base much of my opinion of a Mexican restaurant on the quality of their tamals ( not only cleanliness) their tamals are great! My whole meal was great! Reasonable prices and good service, I'll be back!

My husband and I both enjoyed our dinner here. He had the beef chimichangas, and I had a shrimp and…read morescallop dish with lots of veggies. He said his was good - he'd give it a solid 4! My dish was yummy, too; especially after I added their house hot sauce. What we found unique was the chips and salsa came with some Cole slaw for dipping, as well. Pretty tasty Cole slaw, but I don't think I would normally put it on tortilla chips. I prefer white sauce or salsa, but fun trying nonetheless. My Pina colada Margarita was refreshing and tasty; although, I would have liked a little stronger pineapple/coconut flavor. The staff were wonderful: very attentive and helpful. Nice size restaurant with plenty of seating with a festive vibe. In the area, check them out!

But apparently not, because everybody had to get up and go order their own food and then bring it to the table. They didn't even bring water or come by and see if we needed anything. This is not a restaurant; it's more like a fast food place that has a lot of tables in it. I would not recommend it for a dining experience, though I might recommend it for pickup and carry out. The food was okay, but I would not describe it as healthy. There was really no reason to tip because no service was provided.

This place is just a little off the beaten path, but damn it's worth it! This is their original location and the staff are very and attentive. I would hate to see a local gem like this disappear when they truly do set the standard for quality food, service, at a very fair price! My wife had the $13 combination plate with tamale, chicken burrito, and a chalupa. I got the ribeye tacos. Her plate was hefty and tasty! My ribeye was fantastic and I could only finish 2 of the 3 tacos!

Not mind blowing or innovative, but I don't come here for that. Right now, they have a pork chop special that is out of this world. My kiddos love the quesadilla. They have 25¢ candy at the front counter. Blow Pops, York Peppermint Patties and the like. It's a random detail, but it hits my sentimentality really hard. Something about the front entry. The vestibule entrance. The gum-ball machines. Tchotchkes. It makes me feel like going out to dinner with aunts and uncles and cousins when I was a kid in the early 90s

Walked in Saturday night and was amazed how much seating area there is inside. I wonder if this use to be something like an Olive Garden, but last night was definitely not busy. I was promptly seated, noticing several Latin people eating, which is always a good sign! They don't give complimentary chips, which I really should stop eating anyways. My server promptly asked me for my order and my enchiladas came out suspiciously fast. Flavors were all there, good seasoned shredded chicken breast with a nice salsa verde sauce. However, they did not put the plate under a broiler, so I get this plate smothered with fresh, cold cheese and the refried beans were already look warm. My server barely came by afterwards to check on me, but maybe she was serving another section in the cavernous place.
