Si Charro! Reveals the Name of its New Restaurant on Campbell

Aug 22, 20232 min read

Less than a month ago, Si Charro! announced that it would be closing Barrio Charro at Prince Road and Campbell Avenue, and then a brand-new restaurant concept would be moving in shortly after. The word is out! The new Si Charro! restaurant has a name: Charro Chico — it loosely translates to “little Charro.”

Charro Chico is designed to be a “fun, fast, fresh, and timely classic” at 3699 N. Campbell Ave. and is still determining its official grand opening. Company president Ray Flores tells us that the idea for the Charro Chico concept has been bouncing around for a while.

What’s on the Menu?

After a successful first year of their latest concept The Monica, the Si Charro! team wanted to share a little more of the home cooking recipes inspired by Tia Monica and created by chef Carlotta Flores (Monica’s grandniece and Si Charro! Executive Chef). 

“With Charro Chico, you’ll get a lot of flavor,” said Flores. “Charro Chico will showcase our family heritage and the big flavors of Mexican cuisine in the way we love to eat today — smaller plates, fast and easy service, and outstanding quality with options like salsa bars, bowls, and tacos for eat-in, takeout, and online orders.”

The menu will feature a delectable variety of offerings, including a taco bar where guests can customize their selections, and a few of Barrio Charro (the previous location that was closed to make room for this new concept) favorites like the Breakfast Burrito and the Tortas made with local grains.

Charro Chico is located at 3699 N. Campbell Ave. and will be open daily for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, 10 a.m. – 8 p.m. on Monday – Friday, 9 a.m. – 8 p.m. on Saturday, and 9 a.m. – 3 p.m. on Sunday. For more information, visit sicharro.com.

More about Matt

At a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.

He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.

If you’re in the mood for strange stories, head over to his pride and joy, wonkytimes.com. And in case you’re curious — yes, after all of this time, he still manages to roll a killer burrito.
