    This hole in the wall restaurant has been around since 1934 for good reason. Some of the best green chile around. Just about every dish on menu is smothered with either red or green chile. Cheapest best tasting mexican food in town, so they say. I haven't tried them all, but I would tend to agree so far. I ordered a 1/2 Chile burger with green and it came with homemade fries. I've also ordered El Sapo special on other visits and every meal I've eaten here has just been, not good but, great!

    Nice place... friendly atmosphere... fast and ridiculously well-priced (read: $6.00 for the daily special plate)... Chips to start and a sopapilla afterwards. Seriously... very pleased with my stop from Fort Collins on the way to New Mexico. I've heard people bad talk Alamosa... but this is definitely your hole-in-the-wall, owner seating you, gem in the rough!

    I have had Mexican food here for.... seriously.. 50 years. I have to say the flavor is the same now as then..Do not pass this little hole in the wall place by......4 stars only because the appearance is not the greatest.... but the food is... give "Charro" a try.

    I stopped here for lunch this week. I ordered chicken flautas. They were ok but the guac looked so artificial I didn't even taste it. The food gave me gas so bad I thought I was going to get food poisoning. I will not be back.

    on the drive from Boulder to Taos we stopped in Alamosa to let our toddler burn off some energy in the local park. Dreading the usual fast food chain option we asked a local about the restaurants we saw on the main drag and she recommended this little hole in the wall. Service was friendly, prices were super cheap and the atmosphere a little "diner-ish" but we got huge plates of food and ate every last bite. The tamales were better than most I've ever had in restaurants. If I lived in town I would definitely be a regular.

    I eat at El Charro frequently. The food is consistently great as is the service! It may look like a dive, but it's one of the best (and most economical) places to eat in town!

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.
