El Charro
February 19, 2000

Listen to this feature (RealAudio 3.0; how to listen)

El Charro, in business since 1922 and still under the same family’s ownership, offers wonderfully fresh Mexican-American food. Don’t miss the carne seca ­ tenderloin of beef marinated in lemon and garlic and air-dried in a cage that hangs above the patio. Its fabulous aroma fills the air ­ and tacos, enchiladas, burritos, and chimichangas. Another specialty is the Topopo Salad. "Topopo" means volcano and, appropriately, the salad is a conical monument of shredded lettuce, tomatoes, cheese, shredded chicken and olives served on a tostada.
