Mexican Cuisine
If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.
Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.
Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.

Friendly service and fast. Regular like margaritas were tart but not too much so. Chips are fresh and salsa is more on the runny side which I love. Vulcan steak was excellent. Happy burritos were also good. We would definitely return.

So it seems this place has mixed reviews. It is a small Mexican place that you could find in any small town USA, but the staff is super friendly, food is pretty good, salsa is yummy... Yeah, if you're in Iowa and craving Mexican this is the place to go:) prices are low and service is good:)

Typical place, nothing really stands out. They are better than most places in Iowa, good food, but nothing to rave about.

Oh heavens is this place awful. Stick to only the chips and a shot of tequila and consider yourself saved.

On the way through Pella we stopped at El Charro for dinner. I had seen it before and we were hungry for Mexican. Our experience had its plusses and minuses. If I were back in Pella and wanting Mexican, I would try the other Mexican place, Casa Grande first just to compare. The salsa was OK. It was a canned tomato type, with a good amount of cilantro and a little heat. The good part was that it did not have cumin and was not overloaded with huge chunks of raw onion. The chips were standard thin tasteless restaurant style. They have a "build-your-own" combo page on the menu. Ms T ordered a chicken burrito and a ground beef tostada. The waiter misunderstood the tostada and it showed up with beans even after he had repeated the order back to her. They cheerfully provided the proper item. The meat was typical in that it was unseasoned. This was pretty unremarkable, but after all you can't expect a lot from a ground beef tostada. The chicken burrito was like stewed chicken with peppers and onions. Even after she removed the onions, that is all she could taste. There was plenty of OK guacamole and lettuce. I ordered heuvos con chorizo and a side of chiles torreados. Both were good. The chorizo was plentiful and with good flavor. It was not the greasy stuff that you find in most Mexican groceries. The chiles were jalapenos, but were not hot at all although they had good jalapeno flavor. Chopped up, they were really good on the heuvos. I was surprised and pleased to find chiles torreados on the menu. This is in their favor. The frijoles were better than average, perhaps not as creamy with lard as the best. The rice was also typical, seasoned with some onion and garlic and including a splash of veg-all. Both were acceptable. This meal illustrates the need to order the right things. I was quite happy with mine, but would not have liked what Ms T had. I did not see any taco menu. I did not even see carne asada although it may have been there. So it is pretty standard family Mexican fare. Based on this one visit it is better than Mi Mexico in West Des Moines, maybe not quite as good as El Nopal in Palmyra. I would certainly go back for the huevos.

Yes, good people. I am in Iowa. Because the candidates are talking about what is good for Main Street instead of Wall Street, so I decided to go to where the People are. Main Street, Iowa, and see what they are eating, talking about. I went to El Charro, and they are all talking about soccer. That's right, soccer, and delicious meals at affordable prices. People can't afford to eat out as much, but El Charro offers delicious food at prices the families on Main Street can deal with. Also, El Charro is a place where the workers go. Be they work on farms, meat packing, or making the hooks that hook the meat. The workers are there. I did not see a lot of McCain signs on Main Street, so I guess McCain is not eating a lot at El Charro. I guess that's a sign of what things would be if he became President. Viva El Charro!
