FIESTA TO-GO
The entire El Chico menu is available for take-out .
our family history
We welcome you to the tradition of El Chico.
Thank you for the opportunity to serve you for over 65 years.
The El Chico story began when Adelaida Cuellar’s homemade tamales drew huge crowds
at the Kaufman County Fair in 1926. In 1940 the Cuellar brothers took their mother’s
famous recipes and opened the doors to the first El Chico Restaurant in Dallas,Texas.
Today, El Chico Restaurants can be found throughout the southern United States.
The Cuellar’s recipes, work ethic and determination can still be found in the kitchen.
Our family looks forward to serving you for many years to come. Bienvenido!
