El Charro Avitia
El Charro Avitia Mexican restaurant is Carson City's take on a long line of family-owned and family-friendly restaurants of the same name. Originating out of California, El Charro Avitia has classic Mexican food paired with an incredible drink menu. This combined with specials like $1 tacos on Tuesdays (yes, you read that correctly) make this Carson City restaurant a can't miss!

Come enjoy your favorite marg and chow down with an extensive food menu including chimichangas, enchiladas, and tostadas. Jimmy Buffet may have Margaritaville, but here in Northern Nevada, we have El Charro Avitia. With both blended and on the rocks, this Carson City Restaurant has an incredible selection of top-shelf margaritas; they even a jalapeno margarita that is sure to hold its own.

Best Mexican food I've had in a very long time. The Mexican BBQ pork should not be missed! Lean, moist and perfectly spiced. Even the beans and rice rose far above expectations.

Very enjoyable lunch and great food. Our waitress Pam was very personable and made our lunch that much more pleasant today. My only knock on Pam is her choice in football teams and the comments she made about my team... Diner beware!!! Lol... I was honest and told her I was posting about her comment on Google reviews. Thanks again for a great lunch!!!

Been going for years. Always delish including the salsa. Would have given them 5 stars but the waitress forgot our drinks and we waited 20 mins and were served our food after we reminded her.

I grew up going to El Charro and For the first time ever I was pretty disappointed with my food and service. We had a large party but the servers were fairly distracted and surly and my chicken Taco salad was soggy and I found 2 chicken bones in my salad. I will give it another shot next time we're in town but I was definitely disappointed.

Excellent service and so was the quality of the food, too! Everything also came on hot plates. Two different kinds of house salsas were also very enjoyable. Very attentive wait staff. I can highly recommend this place and will return!

This is a family owned restaurant. It has been here over 35 years. The owners loved their patrons. They are very good to the staff too! The food is made fresh everyday! Homemade chips, salsa's, soups! Weekly specials.

Very good food... I mean very good! The service has always been pleasant. The meat is fresh, nice warm appetizer chips, great flavor and abundant portions. I have visited this place for years, introduced to me by my Pastor.

We came here last night for dinner. Our server did a great job even though she was swamped. Everyone enjoyed their food. I had the chili relleno and tamale and it was amazing, the chili relleno was the best I’ve had and the tamale reminded me of my homemade ones. We will definitely come back the next time we’re in town visiting.

Mom did not like it. Personally I was very hungry I would have ate a skunk. It was much better than that. The decor seem to be authentic not so much the food. Keep your lines tight and your water Ways clean...

Never again! Our waitress was so rude my family came down to visit from another state and we had heard that the food was good so we gave it a try but never again the fact that our waitress was so so rude to my family and I it made our experience eating here not so great! I don’t recommend this place.
