I didn’t realize that El Chico was still around after closing their McKinney and Sherman location. I ventured into Rockwall and was thrilled to find out it was still around. Delicious food! I always used to get the “Tres Banitos” so naturally I ordered this. All of the nostalgic feelings came back and it was just as tasty as I could remember. Generous proportions, and the server I had was very nice and attentive.

I’ve had literally the hardest 2 weeks ever and really needed my mom. She passed 5 years ago.. so me and my kiddos were hungry and decided let’s go to el Chico for dinner! Just to be close to her.. this was her favorite restaurant. We get there and go inside and it smells like my childhood! All I wanted was the kids Mexican pizza. I was informed that they had changed it and it wasn’t the same… of course I was bummed. But the waitress went and asked the staff how it was cooked and told them I would like the old school pizza..they said I got you and made it for me!!! I am beyond excited and beyond appreciative that they would do that for me. A stranger!! And the food is amazing!!!!

Our home town El Chico closed down and we haven’t had their food in a very long time. We had to stop in and have some good food. The service was excellent, hostess got us seated very quickly, our waitress was very attentive to our needs. Chips were fresh and the salsa was great tasting. We had everything from the child’s pizza, Chicken enchilada, Burrito to the Chimichangas. Our food was delivered quickly, hot and fresh. You can’t go to El Chico without trying our favorite dessert. Hot apple pie with cinnamon ice cream & brandy butter! It’s a must try.

After all these years, it’s still the same. We traveled to find an El Chico and I think we found the *best* El Chico. Our service was incredible and the food was delicious and hot. Every aroma, every view, every flavor sent me back to my childhood in the best way. Will definitely make the drive again.

Use to eat here as a teenager and young adult. Was excited to see they were still in Rockwall after 20 years living in other states that never had or heard of El Chico. They got rid of the wall fountain and the food was not as good as I had remembered it being. Salsa is watered down, chips were stale and the chicken was dry despite the heavy amount of red sauce they put on it. Definitely wont be going back.
