We had dinner at El Cholo in Anaheim Hills while in town on business and it was outstanding. The service was top notch and the food was delicious from start to finish. The nachos were great, the chicken chimichangas were fantastic, and both the beef and fish tacos were full of flavor. We finished with the flan which was rich and satisfying. A five star experience.

I really enjoyed my visit here. The salsa was full of flavor, and the staff took care of us with friendly attention while still giving us plenty of space. The portions were surprisingly large for the price, and every dish we tried tasted wonderful. I also loved sitting at the bar since the vibe was relaxed and you can choose anything from the full menu. A fantastic spot all around.

Good ol classic Mexican food with a great atmosphere. We sat in the cantina for HH and had an $8 Rita, can’t find that price anymore! Kids loved their chicken nuggets and ff and we loved our ooey gooey enchiladas. Chips were fresh and hot! Definitely a great place to go for an old school Mexican resteraunt vibe!

I went for lunch for a date with my husband. The restaurant was nicely decorated and clean. The atmosphere was great. My husband described it as “a Mexican disneyland restaurant. ” I agreed. The food was good but not the best. Portions were small for the price. I ordered an enchilada and a taco. They tasted alright. Nothing special. The coconut margarita was great, though. Super yummy. The server was nice, funny and friendly. I recommend this place.

I love this place, I always get the carne asada plate. It comes with a good size NY steak, I order it medium rare and it’s perfectly cooked. The steak is about 1 inch thick, pretty good. With the steak comes the rice, beans, some guac with tiny strips of romaine lettuce and cut up tomatoes, also comes with 4 pieces of either corn or flour tortilla. I love it. I get this every time, and it’s delicious! It’s not bad for a quick steak dinner, Mexican style. The quality of the steak is not bad for 30 bucks. Love this place.

Liz, the bartender was awesome! Great service and just the right amount of interaction. Will come back just because of her.
The food was also good. We had the happy hour items and they didn’t skimp on the amount of food.

We’ve been coming to this restaurant for years now and have never had a bad experience. Whether it’s a sit down meal with the family or happy hour with friends, El Cholo doesn’t disappoint! Chips and salsa are always fresh, and not heavily salted like some restaurants. The food itself is flavorful and the portion sizes are fair! Drinks are well done every time! The servers are always friendly, professional, and always have a smile. It’s so nice to still have a restaurant around that we know will be a safe bet when we want to go out to eat! Highly recommend!

I always enjoy dining at El Cholo. My go-to order is the wet red burrito — it’s always very flavorful, perfectly sauced, and consistently satisfying. The service is excellent every time I visit; the staff is attentive, friendly, and makes you feel welcome. It’s definitely a spot I keep coming back to.

The food was not very good. The server was super nice but it took forever to get my check. Love the vibes though.

We had the best experience at El Cholo. The food was excellent, but what made it incredibly special was the service that we received by Olga G. We dine out quite often and she is by far the very best waitress we have ever had. If you try El Cholo, which I highly recommend you do, ask if Olga is in the house and request her to be your server. She was amazing!!!
