Treat Your Taste Buds To Century-Old Family Recipes At Charro Steak & Del Rey In Arizona

Southwestern cuisine is the heart and soul of Tucson, but not all restaurants are created equal. For reliably delicious surf 'n turf with a local flair, look no further than Charro Steak & Del Rey located in the historic downtown district. You'll find unique twists on tried-and-true classics, with each menu item being more delicious than the last.

Owned by the same family that brought us the iconic El Charro Café, this surf 'n turf restaurant is a culinary gem in historic downtown Tucson.

You'll find Charro Steak & Del Rey at 188 East Broadway Boulevard, Tucson, AZ 85701.

The atmosphere is homey and welcoming, with a Southwestern feel that's so perfectly Arizona.

Grab a table or sit down at the bar and take a look at the incredibly extensive menu.

No matter what you're craving, it's probably available in some way, shape, or form.

Introduce your taste buds to the Charro food philosophy with an appetizer. Your options are plentiful, ranging from prickly pear glazed meatballs to chorizo-stuffed mushrooms and several other mouthwatering bites. Guests also enjoy complimentary chips and salsa. (Good luck saving room for the main course!)

When it comes time to choose your main dish, a steak always hits the spot.

Only the finest grass-fed beef is used, and various cuts are offered. All steaks come with beans and tortillas, and you can add smoked manchego cheese, shrimp, or lobster for an extra fee.

If seafood is what your heart desires, you've come to the right place.

Grilled salmon, surf 'n turf enchiladas, and this behemoth of a lobster stuffed with tamale filling are just a few of the many choices.

Skipping dessert at El Charro would be a rookie mistake.

Your sweet tooth will go crazy for the Nutella tamales, chocolate peanut butter tres leches cake, margarita lime flan, and champagne-fried strawberries. Second stomachs for dessert are a real thing, right?
