El Charro Mexican Grill

Verona has a lot of Mexican options. If you want to dine in and enjoy chips and salsa and chat this is a good one. Portions are enormous. It's in a strip mall type location and shares parking with another busy restaurant, I'm sure they get a decent epic trainee crowd. Entrees can be shared.

You won't go wrong here. The food is good and proportions are rather large. Hint, easily shared. All of the items were good the salsa had a little kick that could build up slightly. The queso was very buttery wish they gave you a bit more in the appetizer. A hint if you like to take leftovers the pork reheated was as good as if not better reheated. Service was a bit slower than I expected but not horrible.

Large restaurant worth visiting in the area. Each table gets chips and salsa and the chips are thick and don't break easy. I'm a fan. The salsa was pleasant but not that spicy or flavorful, which most people around here like. We ordered the burrito bandera, tamales and enchiladas. Everything was delicious. I like the different flavor sauces that come with the burrito bandera and it is large, so be ready to eat. The tamales and enchilada were also worth trying. I'd come here again!

Food was ok at best, and the service was slow there were people standing around doing nothing. Ended up getting food poisoning and throwing up the whole night so that ultimately ruined my experience. There are many better Mexican places that are more cost effective and much much better. I would skip on this one.

We've been coming here for a while now, food is always pretty good. Tonight the food was good, I can recommend the tropical pineapple dish.However, we were just a bit frustrated with the service and subsequent interaction with the manager.While eating our complimentary chips and salsa we asked if they had a hot version of their salsa. The waiter said yes and that he would bring some out, which he did. It was actually some kind of Chipotle flavored sauce which wasn't very good, but that's not the point, which I'll get to later.I asked how the Pineapple dish was and if it came with sour cream or anything? He said yes, it came with avocado, sour cream, etc, etc. So I ordered it. After it came out, it didn't come with any of those condiments. So I asked about sour cream, he asked another waiter. He came back and said sorry, I was wrong, would you like some sour cream? I said yes. Now the frustrating part, I was charged $3 for sour cream which he indicated it came with and no mention of the charge when he asked if I wanted some. At least tell me it's $3 so I can decide. But I didn't complain and didn't mention it.Next, we were charged $3 for the "hot" version of their salsa that we ate with our complimentary chips. This time, I asked the waiter? $3 for the hot salsa with our chips? He said, let me talk to a manager. So the manager comes over carrying their menu and points to the Spicy Tomatillo Sauce in the menu and proceeds to tell us that if it says in the menu it's $3, that's how much it is. Heck, we weren't even looking at a menu, we were eating our complimentary chips. At that point, I obviously wasn't going to even mention the sour cream, it was clearly my fault. She did end up taking the $3 charge off after making sure I understood it was my fault and I should have had the menu memorized when asking for salsa.I'm sure we'll go back again in the future because the food is good, but we'll sit there and keep our mouths closed and take what we get.

Came here for dinner after having a taste for Mexican food but wanted to try something that I couldn't get at any other Mexican restaurant (like tacos, enchiladas, burritos). I asked the waitress what she would recommend and I got the tropical pineapple. I loved it, it was truly unique and had great flavor. It was a mix of everything: including shrimp, chicken, and chorizo along with peppers, cheese and pineapple which gave the dish a nice sweet flavor profile to counterbalance the slight spice from the meats. I would highly recommend ordering for anyone looking to try something truly unique. I would order it again next time I go backto El Charro. The restaurant had nice patio seating with a Mariachi band playing on the weekday that we went which was a really nice touch.

Tried out this Mexican restaurant and we were blown away!!!! AMAZING MEXICAN FOOD (best around madison for sure) and FANTASTIC entertainment. We will be recommending this place to everyone!! Thank you for the great experience!!

Pretty greasy sub-par mexican food. Not the worst I have ever had, but you can find better Mexican options in Verona, West Madison, and Fitchburg. So, I would recommend seeking those out instead.

Buen servicio y sazón Agradable estancia buena ambientación excelente para un buen trago y una buena comida Familiar sobre todo

One of my favorite restaurants. This restaurant is in a little strip mall with plenty of parking. The food is always delicious and the service is amazing with extra chips if needed.
