The place is you typical local Mexican joint. The chips and house salsa was tasty. The food was alright slightly bland for my taste. The bartenders and staff were quite friendly.

El Chico is my favorite resturaunt and always will be! Angel is their best server in my opinion and if she is available I will request her table. Take-out is also great here. I have pretty much tried almost everything on their menu so if you ask what is the best I will tell you EVERTHING. Try getting their cheese dip as half white and half yellow and I promise you will not be disappointed.

I went here for my 21 birthday with my family. The service was great, the food was good, and the alcohol was delicious. The only problem I really had with this restaurant is that it looks very run down and sketchy. I ate here as a child so I knew it was safe, but if I was a new customer I would be skeptical.

Service was great, but the table was dirty, the bathrooms were dirty, and at 11:30am the chips were already a little stale. The food was fine, but definitely not the best El Chico I’ve eaten at.

It’s got some good stuff but inconsistent quality makes it hard to rate. The steak was good but fries taste freezer burned. Enchiladas were not tasty but margaritas were good. Cheese dip was good but meat added to them was cold not even warm. Good staff young people very nice.

Tonight’s dinner was very delicious!!! Everything was great!!! And the service was very good!!! The cute bartender was great! (I can’t remember her name??) She was very busy, but on top of it all, and did a great job taking care of all of her customers!!! The manager, Julie, is great!!! She is a people person, and knows how to talk to people, making her really good at her job!!! My fiance and I always enjoy seeing Julie when we come in. She’s always so pleasant to deal with!

We haven’t been here in almost six years until tonight. We had a really nice server who had a great sense of humor, and the food was good. The salsa seemed like it came out of a jar, but the white cheese dip was really good! All four of us loved our dinners.

While the staff is wonderful and my grandparents LOVE this restaurant, it is my LEAST favorite dive. The food is basic and flavor lacks pizzazz. The dessert is always on target, but takes forever to get food and drink refills. We enjoy the calmer atmosphere and family time. It is nice to sit down at a place as a large family.
