Reviews for Cocina del Charro in Escondido, CA
My favorite Mexican restaurant. I always get the wet shredded chicken burrito because it's so good I don't want to even try... anything else. My husband feels the same way about the lunch sized Taco Salad Supreme. The regular size is huge. The service isterrific and the wait staff is friendly. Everyone I've taken there has enjoyed it too.

Great food, fun atmosphere (definitely let someone know if there's a birthday person with you), my one complaint was a minor... issue with service. A table that was seated after us got their drink order in before we did. Like I said minor. For sure adefinite go to place for food and drink. Read more
Not a bad place to eat. We were seated quickly. All the staff were wonderful. Granted I don?t think our waiter thought our soda... joke was funny. Then again who has Pepsi over Coke. Anyways, the food was delicious! The main dishes for sure. The rice andbeans were a tad basic an could use some touching up. The kids menu (under 10) is great. I would probably make it a soft tacoan not a hard taco for kids under 10. $12 margaritas that are large too! Excuse the messy pics we were too busy eating. Read more
Haven't been here in a while and only came because MI Guadalajara was unexpectedly closed. It took over 5 minutes for someone to... appear at the hostess desk to start seating people. Including us, there were over a dozen people waiting some came in ahead ofus and some behind us. We got seated and within 30 seconds the server appeared to take our food and drink order, fortunately weknew what we wanted and were able to order quickly. No complaints on the food at all, it came out pretty quickly, was hot andtasted good. Our server never came back to check on us at all. When she did finally come back over it was to bring us ourcheck. When we're not even halfway through our meal and we haven't been asked if we need anything or offered refills to bepresented with your check is kind of irritating. The decor is showing its age and the dining area is a little grubby and couldreally do with a repaint. Read more
This was the site of our Orange Glen High School 50+ Reunion & 70th Birthday Party. We received service by, Hector, however,... every server was gracious and pleasant. The accommodations were wonderful and perfect for our special occasion. I wouldrecommend this restaurant for individuals dining out or for special group gatherings such as ours. Read more
Food was fresh, seasoned, delicious. It had been a while since we came here, because previous experiences were...just ok. But... today I was very impressed! Shootout to our server, Karen, who was great. I'll be back. Read more
First time going here and honestly the food was ok nothing special and the service was okay I really expected much because it's... such a nice restaurant but I wasn't really impressed. Read more
We sat on the patio because the restaurant was full inside. There are heaters outside which are nice but we were too hot. I had... a chili relleno, which is my favorite Mexican food and it was very good, not the best I've had but close. Read more
