El Charro Cafe - Why

Airport takeout, part deus. Please, for the love of everything, make the food quick AND accurate. Dined at El Charro consistently as a child, so glad they’ve expanded, and in the TUS airport no less. But. I ordered a corn and beef tamale, and received chicken. Almost missed my plane waiting to correct the error. The thing is, it was fine out, and I could have discovered on my flight, not land locked.

Being located in an airport, the prices are just as high as everything else. I tried the Charro burger. It was pretty good. A good sized patty on a brioche bun! The first time I had ever had 'fried cheese ' on top anything. Added a nice flavor, but wasn 't my favorite. I think I 'd prefer it served the regular way, but that 's just ME. They were a bit sparing on the Chipotle mayo, I had to ask for more. Fries were fresh and very hot. The server was a bit busy but pleasant and pretty good at seeing to everything. All in all, wasn 't bad for a $20+ single meal. I think next time I will have to get some authentic Mexican food! El Charro has been around Tucson for nearly 100 years, there MUST be something pretty exciting on their menus!

Poor service, waitress was more than rude, through me the menu and put my beer so far from that I had to stand up to grab it. I ordered beef quesadilla. First it stayed for more than 10 minutes on the kitchen counter before the waitress decided to bring it to me (easy to see when you seat at the bar) : dry, less than one once of meet and nothing else inside, beam were liquid, rice over dry. I paid $24 with a drink and left $4 tip which I think was generous regarding the service. Then I discover that I've been charge $30. Question is not for $2 but apparently waitress overwrite my bill. I made a claim at my bank. So in a nutshell Poor Service, Poor Food and on top of that they are thieves. AVOID and go get a bagel next door they are delicious and they smile at you while you place your order.

I always hit this place up for my obligatory **** mary before I fly. They make them great. Short double with anything but Titos!

Ok I?m from Tucson. The guacamole here is outstanding. Huge chunky pieces of avocado served with a slightly spicy salsa. The chips tasted fresh! My prior experience with El Charro is El Charro downtown location, El Charro steak, El charro Oro Valley. The El Charro Oro Valley is not that good. Stale chips and food not served hot. The other El Charros are wonderful including this one at the airport!
