The food was excellent, presented nicely and came out quickly, the restaurant was also very clean and wasn’t too loud. They had a large vegetarian section on their menu, which I appreciated so much. A lot of Mexican restaurants don’t have that option. Our waiter was also incredibly nice, and the other employees we dealt with while we were here were also very nice. Definitely one of the better Mexican restaurants in Quincy.

Impressive. The restaurant is very clean. Staff is friendly. Price is very reasonable. Portion is for hungry people. Highly recommend this place. The meat was tender and flavored. Not many condiments as other Mexican restaurant. I personally loved it. Service is fast. Most definitely I will come back on my few days here in Quincy

I've ate here a couple times now with my family and friends, and every time I am never disappointed. Los Charros is filled with friendly and amazing staff, big portions of food worth the price, and a nice atmosphere with groovy music. The perfect place for a family lunch!

I've been here a few times and this is a very well run establishment. The food is delicious. I had the Seafood Nachos and I highly recommend it. The portion sizes are spot on. They season and sear their food. The shrimp had a nice sear. The scallops were seared and flavored. Cheese sauce is thick and creamy. Crab is artificial but still delicious. I will be returning.
