It was delicious! The place was packed like most places are on Fridays during the lunch hour, but fortunately when I eat lunch during the week I normally roll alone, so I didn&#8217;t have to wait for table to open up for my party. I walked in and they sat me right down. As I sat down a bowl of chips and salsa were put down in front of me and I started looking over the menu. I really wanted to try the Arroz Con Pollo but didn&#8217;t want to pay full price (less then 8 bucks, but I only have a 10 with me). So I ended up getting the Friday special which was Chile Con Carne (not beef but pork) and an iced tea.<\/p>\n<p>As I starting scarfing down the tasty chips and salsa (not too hot, not too mild) I people watched, and hoped my stomach would forgive me for eating my lunch (I&#8217;m coming down with a cold). But I just had to get a my mexican fix! I gave up fried stuff for lent, and now I can have chips and salsa again at a mexican restaurant, this was my first time back on the saddle, and it was well worth it. Not that long after I ordered my plate of Mexican goodness was delivered. the plate consisted of about 5-6 nice sized chunks of meat drowning in sauce, along with beans an rice. I soaked in the warmth from the food I thanked the waiter and he handed me flour tortillas. the food was full of flavor and every bite hit the spot.<\/p>\n<p>All that and it only cost me $8 bucks (not including tip)!<\/p>\n<p>I was actually pretty surprised at how busy the place was considering it&#8217;s location (it isn&#8217;t the easiest place to locate). But I&#8217;m definitely coming back, and next time I&#8217;m bring my wife with me for dinner!<\/p>\n<p>[xrr rating=5\/5]<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"El Faralito - Placentia\" href=\"http:\/\/maps.google.com\/maps\/ms?ie=UTF8&amp;msa=0&amp;msid=105288148662857187948.000448baa5f654d2827be&amp;ll=33.870897,-117.87107&amp;spn=0.008089,0.014591&amp;z=16\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>El Farolito<\/strong><br \/>\n201 S Bradford Ave<br \/>\nPlacentia, CA 92870<br \/>\n(714) 993-7880<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.urbanspoon.com\/r\/20\/242703\/restaurant\/OC\/El-Farolito-Placentia\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"border: medium none;width: 200px;height: 146px\" src=\"http:\/\/www.urbanspoon.com\/b\/link\/242703\/biglink.gif\" alt=\"El Farolito on Urbanspoon\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m still recovering from my terrific meal I had for lunch today at El Farolito.
