I love this place. Having lived many years in areas close to the Mexican border, I can say without…read morereservation that the food here is just about as authentic as anything I've ever had in any town in Mexico. The food is tasty and well-made. The beans and rice are as delicious as any abuelita would serve in her own house. For people who are looking for spicy food, this might not be your place but if you're looking for food that'll make you reminisce about your last trip to Baja, this is your place. (Traditional authentic Mexican food is flavorful but isn't necessarily very spicy.) After being seated, chips, salsa, bean dip and glasses of water are served almost immediately. As many times as I've been here, I've never had to wait long to get my order taken or to get what I ordered delivered to the table. Oregon is still under pandemic protocol mandates (wearing a mask, social distancing, etc.) and El Charrito is one of the few places in this little town that is still practicing those protocols. For that reason alone, I'll be supporting this little local Mexican restaurant... but it's a good thing they have good food, too. Oh yeah - I think the margaritas are especially good and are a great accompaniment to whatever authentic Mexican food you're ordering. If you close your eyes for a minute, you might even be able to picture yourself sitting on the beach in Loreto or Rosarito, toes in the sand, sun at your back, listening to the people around you chattering in Spanish. I really do love this place.

I thought I would check out this Mexican restaurant on Molalla when I was in the area…read more I went mid afternoon, and they were only two tables occupied. Lots of real plants. Cool decorations hanging from the ceiling and it was clean. I was greeted by a cheerful man and seated immediately. Provided me with a menu, water and my Diet Pepsi very shortly after. I ordered up the grilled Carne Asada that comes with your choice of tortillas, refried beans, Mexican rice, and a hodgepodge of guacamole, lettuce, sautéed onions/tomatoes. I have never seen tomatoes with Carne Asada before. It was delicious all of it. Not too salty. The salsa was good. The tortilla chips were average. Lots of parking and they also do to go

We were seated in a booth and promptly welcomed with complimentary chips and salsa. The chips were warm, and the beans served alongside them were as well. Shortly after being seated, our server greeted us and informed us of the Friday evening drink specials. To start, we ordered a couple of house margaritas and the grilled octopus, both of which were excellent. The menu offers a wide variety of options, so we asked for a recommendation. Our server suggested the Molcajete Mexicano, which turned out to be a standout dish--rich in flavor and generously portioned (photo attached for reference). Overall, the pricing was reasonable for dining out, and the service was attentive and efficient. We arrived with modest expectations but were thoroughly impressed by both the food and the service. We look forward to returning to try more items on the menu.
