Claim this ListingEl Charrito is a family owned business consisting of the most desired Mexican dishes in the southwest. Here it's not just food, it's a cuisine. A blend of southern and northern Mexican dishes to bring you the best. An experience given without the travel.
The Menudo tho! We went for a casual (read: rolled outta bed) weekend breakfast. The restaurant is small and is located in downtown Glendale. The isn't much fuss about it, and they're isn't a need, the food was great. I did catch sight of an ad for a $7.50 bucket of Corona (we'll b back for this)!
Only downside for me was, the huevos rancheros red sauce had an aroma of seafood this morning. Also, there is an additional charge for extra chips & salsa. If this is how the business can offer the above referenced buckets of Corona? This is just fine with me. Thanks for the Menudo!
Best Mexican food in the valley! Don't let anyone tell you otherwise!!
My family dines at El Charrito ALLLL the time and we keep coming back for a reason. Everything is always 100% and never lacking. My favorite part is always the rice and beans though.
So it's been pretty rough in downtown Glendale losing a couple of Mexican restaurants that had been around for decades like La Perla and Pedros so when we discovered El Charrito we had to check it out. Beware that parking is pretty limited here.
Their food is excellent and definitely challenging to finish because there is just so much food! Also, the margaritas plenty strong! We have gone here a few times already and it's never super busy for a Friday night when we usually go. Service is alright, they are nice enough but not perky like an Applebee's
Really good menudo, it's my go to place for it. Always busy on weekend mornings but that's the norm anywhere. Service is good, what else can you ask for.
