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.

This place was great. I ordered the molcajete and I couldn't eat is all. Should have shared it with my mom. So yummy!! Then we shared the ice cream and packed up the leftover dinner for tomorrow. Great place, great food, great day.

I don't know how else to say it except YOU MUST GO HERE AND EAT THE MOLCAJETE! It is so yummy. I go to Carthage a couple of times a year to do research and have to admit that we usually go to Los Charros before we even think about researching. Mexican isn't a very popular cuisine in the midwest, and I am really worried this restaurant will not be open for long. This is NOT A GOOD THING. I have lived next to the Mexican border and in California. I have tasted all kinds of Mexican cuisine and have yet to find molcajete like this. In fact, there is only 1 restaurant where I live now that even serves it, and it isn't anywhere near as good. Everything else we have tried at Los Charros is really good too, so enjoy and keep it open for me!!

Just eat here while traveling to Carthage The chips and salsa were absolutely amazing and the dinner was better. I definitely want to stop here and eat anytime you're close to Carthage. We ended up sharing and there was still leftovers, portions are great prices are good.

I was given a great recommendation from a missionary at the Carthage Jail Visitors Center to come here. I really enjoyed my burrito with the special hot sauce they make. The children seemed to enjoy their meals as well.

We come to Carthage at least once per year and usually end up at the DQ. We wanted to try something new so we checked Yelp and saw that this place was highly recommended. We gave it a try and are glad we did. The Molcajete is enormous and should definitely be shared. It has incredible flavor and makes for some great fajitas. Ask for extra tortillas as the three that it comes with are insufficient for such a large meal. My daughter loved the queso on the bean burrito and the fried ice cream and sopopillas were also very good. The only negative was the cheese enchiladas. The cheese tastes like processed cheese. Technically they weren't on the menu and were a custom request, so I have to give them a pass on that one. Our waiter was friendly and service was fast. Glad we stopped in!

Very good service, food comes very quickly from the kitchen. Good variety and very clean.

I'm going back. Some people in my group found the pre-mixed margaritas to be sub-par but I'm a fan. I ordered tacos and the shells were a little stale/hard but the rest of it made up for that. If you like salsa with plenty of garlic -then you'll be in heaven. Excellent service.

I gotta say that when you go to Carthage you don't expect to find good Mexican; however, we felt like Mexican food and decided to drive around and see if there was a place in Carthage. Sure enough we found Los Charros. I always judge the food by the chips and salsa and this place had good chips and salsa. I got a pot of meat, ok, I don't remember exactly what it was called, but it looked like a pot of meat. It was excellent. I was pleasantly surprised. The only thing I didn't like in the pot was the chorizo, but I am not a huge fan of chorizo. Because it was in a small town the place was pretty empty and so the service was good. Overall a good place. In a big city it would be worth four stars, but in Carthage, I gotta give it five stars.
