I am a huge fan of Mexican food. I love trying new varieties at new restaurants all the time... not extremely picky. However, I have constantly been disappointed by the quality of food and servie at El Chico restaurants in many places. The one in Tulsa is particularly bad! I always think that maybe they're just having a bad day, and give them another chance, but honestly, their chances are up with me!
El Chico has moderate prices, usually around seven to eight dollars per plate. They have a variety of alcoholic drinks, pretty pricey, but the drinks are usually good. I just don't think their food is of high enough quality. The flavor isn't great, and it is often brought out cold or not cooked right.
Usually, the main thing that will make me decide not to return to a restaurant is bad service. With El Chico, it's bad service and bad food.
