    Great appetizer
    Alfonso D.

    What a great little place to eat! Service was great and so was the food. Tacos are delicious, flavorful and authentic. Prices for this place were a little high BUT the price they charge for their drinks is outlandish! Almost $5 for a lemonade really! $2.99 for a jarritos! Overall, a great place to eat!

    Not enough tripa ?!!!

    Solid 2 stars I am swwwworrrrryyyy not really but come on you call these tacos? Como? How's this Horizons best... I have to differ. Me and my boyfriend were visiting and I was craving tacos. As always I use Yelp (and gotta give credit to Open table too ) for my food Necessities and saw that this place had 4.5 stars. That's pretty good on yelp but I soon came to find that this has to be a Flaw or something because the food was not good at all. The meat... there almost was none! I had more tortillas than carne That's ridiculous! I'm used to my tacos having some meat in them but I guess. The service was rude and careless. The girl in the front just wanted me in and out lol come to find out there two enterneces to this place so be mindful if you plan on eating in or taking out. I made the mistake to order for take out and I went to go sit down and I also guess you can't do that. If you ordered your food to go, it's to go. I thought that sucked... especially since I promptly change my food decisions. Yeaaaaaa idk but I personally wasn't a big fan, we had to go out again and get something because we were just not satisfied.

    Grear authentic Mexican food and priced well. We got 4 tacos (2 al pastor and 2 carne asada) which came with a baked potato, grilled green onions, cilantro, lime and salsa. The tacos are smaller than "normal", and were pretty good. Also got the queso which comes with 5 small corn tortillas. The queso had bits of jalapeno and chorizo, and was so delicious! It was just a bit difficult to eat when wrapped in tin foil. As the cheese hardens, you can't scrape off the cheese very easily without tearing the foil. The lady taking our order was super friendly and helpful. She even gave us horchata on the house when we came back to pick up our food.

    Is it possible to become a Mexican by eating a taco? Si, como que no! From your first bite you'll be saying 'Arriba!' It starts with some Rojo and Verde Salsa, (red and green for the gringo) the salsa is a bit spicy so wait for your beverages if your not accustomed to eating spicy food. Then order your tacos, they come in multiples of 2, up to 6 ($1.49 A' la carte) Also served with a baked potato and roasted 'cebollitas' (onion) Delicious tacos at a great price. Just enough grease to make you feel official. A Bite More: Mix and match your order with different choice of meats. Carne asada is beef, nice mix of spices with a slight taste of soy sauce. Al pastor is pork, a tasty mix of red chilies and spices. Mucho Bueno! No beer, no real dessert, but there is a great mexican bakery across the street. Also order an avocado on the side, a classic mexican coke, and torreadas (roasted jalapeño) Aya aya ya! Dine in for a quick meal, they are faster than speedy Gonzales. The location is a bit of a drive from El Paso, but worth it if your in the area. They started out as a small taco stand and it grew from there. The staff is super friendly. Great family place. Disfrute! And make sure you have your papers when returning to El Paso, this place is awesome!

    Since we began eating at Tacos El Charly, we have not had a bad meal. The service is friendly and courteous. We hardly ever wait more than ten minutes for our food. My grandchildren can be fussy about their food, but they enjoy their tacos and queso with chorizo. The place is clean and the drinks are cold. I see people walk in with beer, so I guess you bring in your own alcohol. There is entertainment on the weekends. It does get pretty busy starting on Friday. The place is packed and their take-out station is filled to the max with people picking up their orders. Tacos El Charly is reasonably priced and a great place for a family on a budget. If you are looking for a great platter of tacos, this is the place for you!

    Every option is very good. Their tripitas a medio termino are divine. Take out option is the best way to go so you can enjoy them at home

    Amazingly good flautas for an incredibly reasonable price. (They have other dishes too, but that's…read morewhat they are known for!) Beans and rice on the side are optional / modest extra charge - they are usually very good and worth adding if you're hungry enough. My favorite sauce is the Chipotle. It's got heat as it's also creamy...I would call it medium (I like spicy food.) If you're getting them to go, you might want the sauce and toppings on the side. They usually ask about that, but occasionally they might forget. Service is usually friendly and efficient even when they are busy. Your food is made to order, so it's fast but not instantaneous. Allow 5-10 minutes for pickup most of the time. The dining room is medium-sized. I would say it's a place to eat and go, not stay and linger.

    Stopped at El Taquito for breakfast during our move from WA to TX, and it was such a great choice…read more The staff was incredibly friendly, and the whole place had that warm, local-favorite vibe. We ordered the flautas with chipotle sauce and the chilaquiles with half red and half green sauce. The chilaquiles were absolutely amazing. We added a runny egg since we couldn't do chicken, and it gave the dish extra flavor and a good boost of protein. The flautas (which I'd honestly describe more as taquitos dorados) were crunchy and tasty. We liked the chipotle sauce that came with them, but we actually loved dipping them into the chilaquile sauce even more. Overall, it was a great spot to grab breakfast before hitting the road again for many more hours. Highly recommend!

    I think solid is a perfect word for this place. Not the best Mexican food I've ever had, but not…read morethe worst. I bumped it up to four stars for the super friendly service and the excellent aguas frescas. We got there late, about an hour before closing and they were literally trying to get rid of the aguas for free. I guess they have to dump it if they don't use it all. It was close to our hotel so we gave it a try. Portion sizes are good. The taco platter comes with six tacos! I had the flautas Chinampa which came with four beef flautas, beans, rice, and salad. I forgot, the taco platter even came with a baked potato. Prices were excellent. We had gone to McDonald's in the morning and spent more. They also cave us frijoles charros for free. Not sure if this was standard or if they were also trying to get rid of it. I would return for the service and the convenience, but if you're looking for life changing Mexican cuisine, it's not here. What you get is a good amount of decent food at a good price served by great people.

I ordered that and got a ton of food. The serving was huge. Everything looked fresh. When I finished, man, was i full. Everything on that plate was excellent. Good flavor.
