About:In 1940, the Cuellar brothers opened the first El Chico, serving their Mama's very own recipes for authentic Tex-Mex cuisine. Over fifty years later, we are still committed to serving the best. We use only the freshest ingredients in all of our dishes. Our steak fajitas are made with a fresh, never frozen, quality cut of beef and we make our own salsa, chips, beans, rice and other specialties fresh throughout the day. We've got award winning Margaritas, and we couple our food with great service and good prices.

    El Chico offers great food at a reasonable price. This place has friendly, attentive servers that bring chips upon your arrival to munch on while you check out the extensive menu. The appetizers and entrees are top notch. If you can save room for dessert, you can't go wrong with anything you choose from their selections. I suggest the Skillet Brownine with Ice cream and Brandy Butter~It is the bomb!!!

    Great Family Restaurant. This place is great for families, couples, whatever and they are usually super fast (lunch and dinner). Even if there is a wait on Friday or Saturday night, it's not that bad. The food is good and drinks are good. We've had occassional bad service but we've had good service more often than not. We've been eating here for years.

    The First time i ate there the service was outstanding! However the past two times was completly different, we had HORRIBLE service, it took about 20 minutes to get our checks and our waiter never came to check on us, i def. do not reccomend this restaurant if you want good service!
