El Chico Cafe Norman

A Family Tradition since 1940! The El Chico story began when Adelaida Cuellar's booth drew huge crowds at a small county fair in 1926. In 1940, her sons opened El Chico cafe in Dallas, following their mother's recipes for enchiladas with chili con carne sauce. Today, our signature enchiladas are still prepared and carefully hand-rolled fresh for you. Just like he flour tortillas hot off our press in the kitchen. Our salsa is made fresh daily with tomatoes ripened to perfection and jalapenos from Veracruz, Mexico. We don't own a microwave, we make food the old fashioned way. Just for you. Enjoy!
