Great experience every single time! I've been going to El Chicos for over 7years and it has always been a pleasure. When I went plant based it was one of the only restaurants which adapted with the times a created a menu suitable for us to dine with our family and still leave with our bellies full

Open late, friendly staff though service isn't the fastest. Food is perfectly tasty but very expensive for the portion size (their fajitas tortillas are literally the same as their soft taco shells :') )
