El Charro Restaurant

We've been here twice. Once during dinner and once during their lunch times special. Each time we have come, the two waitresses we had were in a hurry. There is usually three tables they are taking of, but it feels like they are wanting you to order quickly and move on. They also seemed bothered when you ask for refills, sour cream or napkins. The enchiladas are pretty good, the salsa spicy and the beans gooey. However, the chimichanga was just okay. The meat tasted canned. The actual look of the restaurant is very nice though and we're grateful for a Mexican themed food restaurant. We will continue to come and may update our review later based on other menu items.

Came here for lunch. Food was ok nothing exciting. Waiter was fast. Not much else I can say. Will I go back?? Not really sure.

A little saddened today. I came in for lunch and I wanted to sopaipilla after I finished my meal. Guess what? No regular sopapillas anymore . El Charro only has the mini sopapillas, 21 for $11.99. No "regular/normal" sopaipillas, that's hard for me to believe a Mexican food restaurant. REALLY! I would like to see them come back, Tom. I really liked them with just a touch of honey. Anyone else with me? Thank you.

Today was a good visit. New menu and it looks like they may be getting back to the old el charro that we used to love. I had a bean and cheese burrito enchilada style. The beans weren't quite what they used to be but it was not awful. I like the chips served with the beans and salsa but it's not necessary. I'm just thankful they still serve them when you are seated unlike another favorite restaurant in the valley. The price was very reasonable and the service was amazing! Good job El Charro!

I haven't eaten here in quite some time. I was extremely happy with the menu and their chips/salsa platter is bomb.

They do not have margaritas or draft beer. We got our check before we were done eating, even if our waitress said no rush. Too bad because we wanted dessert and went somewhere else after. Only reason 2 star is the food is cheap. Corona bottle beer $4 ea. It's more like a family restaurant than a cantina. Also, the food came out in 5 minutes. So I guess my fry bread was made ahead of time and nuked before serving.

Great food and a very good server. We love stopping here for a meal whenever we are traveling through Safford. Try it you will like it.

Ordered the shredded beef stuffed Chili Relleno from them for lunch... absolutely delicious and way too big for a lunch meal. I am not sure what set off the flavor, possibly a fresh chili, or the fact it was grilled first. They do not skimp on the meat or the cheese. Regardless of the why it was so good, I wouldn't pass it up.The service was attentive and timely with refills on drinks and salsa...Will definitely stop when I am in town again!!!

Hoo boy. First and last visit here! We took a chance with this place and were sad to have spent $28 (including tip) for pretty much nothing except a to-go Dr Pepper.The basket of chips was mixed -- there were some fresh and some stale, and the salsa wasn't anything to write home about either.Hubby ordered the chicken enchilada plate and I went with the guacamole tostada and a chicken enchilada a la carte.The server claimed that the guac was good but turned out to be that pasty, tart restaurant-supplied concoction with not one bit of avocado or onion. The tostada was heaped over with lettuce and some tomato and cheese but that didn't save it at all. I tried to eat it but only got maybe halfway through it. My husband ate most of his chicken enchilada but left the beans and rice on the plate; couldn't eat it. I took one bite of my enchilada and it immediately went back on the plate as the chicken tasted as if it was just a wee bit too far around the bend. Some of the shreds looked pink as if some chicken was added but not fully cooked.So even though the waiter removed my enchilada from the ticket, we spent $28 for virtually nothing. I hate to waste food but don't want to be sick if I can help it. Sorry to give one star but that's pretty generous in my opinion.

When I lived in Safford this was my favorite place to eat because the food was delicious. I came back for a visit after about 15 years and it is still the best food! Green chili cheese crisp and the beans were just like I remembered! My husband ordered a tamale and a taco, they were also so much better than what I get in my new home state! Server very nice, food was fast and hot. Wish I could take then home with me!!
