| - Have you been the the new El Chorro? El Chorro is a Paradise Valley staple, originally built in 1934 and is a unofficially extension to the Paradise Valley Country Club crowd. In an effort to compete with the new, more modern trendy places in the area (BLT Steak, Prado), the restaurant has been completely revamped with a more modern, brighter feel. However, it still is attracting the silver-haired population.
The food, however, has also received a major overhaul. There are still comfort food options like Beef Stroganoff, or more current ones like the pan seared escolar (soooo good! Please try this, it's one of the better fish dishes I've had in AZ!). My Mom loved the duck, Grandma loved the Mushroom Ravioli, and Dad loved the Pork Chop!
Every entree comes with a salad or cup of soup (the Steak and Onion soup is delish!), which is so rare these days for fine dining.
Great service, better atmosphere, but still not stepping away from the geriatrics, but overall, I was happy to give El Chorro another shot!
Yes, they still have the sticky buns.... and they are wonderful!
