Wednesday night in downtown Winchester is a great dining experience. Many fine restaurants to pick from.

I went to El Centro on Father’s Day with my wife and daughter. It was very busy, but our server was excellent. I had the tacos, and my wife and daughter had Chimichangas. Each entre came with rice and black beans. I think the best part is the atmosphere. You can sit by a window and watch people on the mall, or you can be seated outside. We had an excellent server.

The food was amazing! The portions were generous. The staff were extra friendly. The price was a little expensive but the restaurant is in a good location. So it’s worth going when you’re spending the day walking around in the area .

Our visit to El Centro was nothing short of delightful. We entered on a cold, rainy day and were immediately greeted with fresh, warm chips and tasty salsa that helped take the chill off.

Right at the hub of downtown. They have a bar. The food was served hot and service was good except for a time when we asked for spicy sauce and they took long to get it.

Normal Mexican cuisine. Nothing much fancy. I have eaten better Mexican food is more cheap places that this one. A bit overpriced. $16 for 3 tacos.

Got the Texas Fajitas and guacamole. Both very good, the neat thing was at the end right before leaving all these tiny birds came over to eat anything dropped.

Not the best pic, I am a picky eater and they accommodated all of my requests. If that wasn’t good enough, it tasted delicious. I am completely satisfied with this order. I got the chicken chimichangas which normally get topped with lettuce and sour cream which I am not a fan of. 10/10 would recommend

Came reccomended by the locals…we were there around noon on a Friday. Food was ok… Hubby is from southern Colorado so he is particular about his Mexican food, while I’m more Americanized. Chips n salsa yummy. I had the Mexican egg rolls which were fine. Hubby got chicken enchiladas also fine. There was a little while where you could smell burning oil which was not pleasant.
