Taqueria El Charro Viejo — Restaurant in Grants Pass

So very glad that I stopped to give this place a try. DELICIOSO! I had the fajita taco salad. I had meat in every bite! They are more than willing to accommodate dietary needs or concerns. I appreciate having a Mexican restaurant on this side of town (southeast) and on my side of the river. I will definitely make this my go to place for Mexican food. Prices are quite reasonable considering the amount and quality of food. They let you spice it up to your taste. Interior decor is nice, yet simplistic. Spacious dining area is not crowded. I did not feel like I was dining with the people behind me, like I do in a lot of other places. The only thing I would say sonnets negative is that the parking is all out back, so there is no draw for people driving by to see they're open.

They've done a great job remodeling this place. The staff were friendly and my food was served promptly. They've got a great menu and the food tastes authentic.

They put a lot of cheese on the plate and there was a small garnish of cucumber and radish and lettuce and the cheese even covered that which was a downer for me. The sauce that they use on the enchiladas and the enchiladas themselves were really good. They had a very homemade,...

Ordered Pollo a la crema. Noticed the recipe served is completely different from El Charro Viejo, which I know and love. Asked if this establishment is under the same ownership as El Charro Viejo, was told yes. What I was served was not Pollo a la creama, but rather strips of chicken, onion, smothered in their “limited cheese sauce” that was served with our chips. How hard is it to serve the right thing. Pretty disappointing. We will not return after spending $50 on a mediocre lunch. If the establishment is out of Pollo a la creama, inform the customer instead of serving rubbish. I may be a white girl, but I know how pollo a la creama should be made and it is not made covered in white nachos...
