El Charrito Authentic Mexican Cuisine

This is my family's favorite Mexican restaurant. It sets the standard for all other Mexican places and so far, none have measured up. It’s a cozy spot in downtown Glendale where the salsa is fresh and the chips are outstanding. It's hard to resist the free appetizers before your main dish arrives! Another great aspect of this place is the value for your money. We always order from the "mini" menu and still have leftovers. The regular portions are enormous. I particularly love their chimichanga and taco salad; there wasn't anything I disliked. Also, I’m sensitive to spice and I appreciate that everything labeled as mild is indeed mild—though I’m sure the spicier options are quite hot!
