Smack in the middle of the smörgåsbord of restaurants in the strip across from Home Depot in the shadow of the Round Rock Walmart Supercenter, there sits the newly opened Charro's Tex-Mex Grill.
Charro's replaces Nopales which was the Mexican restaurant previously located in this spot. Charro's is a family run place offering fairly typical Tex-Mex fare, as the name suggests.

There seemed to be something familiar about the food and serving style here as I had breakfast this morning. The waitress informed me the her family previously operated El Grito over in Wells Branch, which enjoyed a 90% 'like it' rating on Urbanspoon. That explains my find of migas tacos in the breakfast taco menu selection. Oddly, I did not see the breakfast plates on the menu that they used to offer at El Grito.
Charro's serves a number of breakfast tacos that average $2 each, as well as a full lunch and dinner menu. Plates average under $10 and include most meals you would expect to find at a Tex-Mex place. They do stock Mexican Coke in glass bottles for those that like to enjoy a treat of real Coke instead of the HFCS stuff they make now.The red salsa brought out with chips is nice and tomatoey and not really hot. They do offer a hotter green salsa if you ask for it.
I loved the chicken fajita tacos, which are served with plenty of cilantro. Charro's offers decent iced tea and coffee as well, which is not always a given anymore (especially for iced tea.)
Charro's is not a big place, only about a dozen or so 4-seater tables and three bar-style taller tables suited mostly for single diners. There are two flat panel TVs mounted on the walls, but were not hooked up yet or on either time I've been there.
Although there's no shortage of Mexican food places in the immediate Four Points area, Charro's would be a good choice.
