Here's to the old "third time is a charm" cliché:
First time:
So after hearing so much about this place, we gave it a shot! Party of 6, Saturday night, 8 pm = 2 hour wait, so we unfortunately passed and went elsewhere, all good, this happens!
Second time:
Middle of the week, hot summer evening, party of 2, Wednesday night, 7 pm = 1 hour non-guaranteed wait (as they would have been more than likely closed by the time we were to be seated), again! All good and totally understandable!
Third time (and it really was a well worth awaited charm):
Sunday, late brunch, party of 6, only this time I called before heading there, to check what the waiting time was like for a party of 6. I was told the wait time was of about 20 minutes soooo on our way over to Charrito's we were!
So upon our arrival, we were greeted by the Charrito's friendly host and we were amazingly seated right away on the outdoor seating area. Really, really cool and relaxing vibe/view!
Our waiter was amazing and very attentive to our needs too! To me the highlight was the guacamole, which is made from scratch! I have been to other places that do this but Charrito's guac was like no other!
I do have to say that i do love a sizzling hot plate of fajitas, our order of fajitas were everything but sizzling, however they were delicious!
The burritos looked really good and my family did enjoy them.
Nice outdoor seating too! Something was missing though! I felt a slight emptiness and then all of a sudden it hit me! No music, all good! So i did what i do best! Improvise! Nothing wrong with some extra "salsa" with my fajitas, so i put own my own "Eddie Santiago" tunes and this was the cherry on top, lol!
What we ordered:
- side of guacamole (made from scratch right in front of you)
- frozen margarita
- chicken fajitas
- chicken burritos
- coke (soft-drink that is lol)
- modelo beer
There is valet parking available, we found parking right around the corner, basically make your first right (northbound) on Pershing Rd. And you will see street parking on your right hand side.
An excellent experience overall! Well worth the third try! We will be returning!
