Five people and over 200 years of service: The long-standing employees of El Cholo

In 1979, when he was 20 years old, Justino Romero went along to work with a friend who bused tables at El Cholo. A manager asked him if he wanted a job. Fast-forward 43 years, and the Jalisco native has worked most of his life at El Cholo’s La Habra location. He now works as a daytime manager and server.

When he was 17 or 18, Romero left home to come to the U.S. As with many who made that journey, his goal was to earn money to send home and help support his family. A mother of four, Sue Killian began working the night shift at El Cholo in an effort to be home with her children during the day while her husband was at work. 47 years later, Killian, now 80, works only part time at the restaurant while caring for her ailing husband full-time.
