Carmelita's

"Hands-down the absolute BEST Mexican food I have ever eaten!! We had the short ribs enchilada, the chicken nachos and a chimichanga. Cooked to perfection--even the chips are to live for!! We ate outside and watched the sunset while I sipped on a Corona Lite with lime. Service was superb. We will definitely return soon!"

"Festive Saturday night in December, after strolling the Sawdust art festival, we came in around 6 pm. Had reservations, for later, but we were seated right away. We were so decked out in our holiday attire that the manager sent over a couple of glass dome-covered smoking tequila drinks! An unexpected delight! All four of us enjoyed most wonderful service and scrumptious meals. Special thanks to Daniel and Nino. For me, Carnitas rule supreme! We will be back."

"The atmosphere was nice and it's conveniently located very close to the main beach, we liked the gas heaters for the night. We all agreeded that the chips and salsa were really good. The margarita, although not the best I ever had, was still very good but unfortunately there was barely anything as the glass was filled almost completely with ice and for 15 dollars frankly I expected more than a couple of sips. The food felt fresh but all the things we ordered didn't really have much flavor wich is odd for a Mexican restaurant. The don't do refills on soda because they use a bottle instead. They did not offer more tortilla chips once they were finished. They did not bring a kids menu nor any coloring paper for the kids, when I asked for one kids menu the server listed 2 or 3 options for kids without mentioning prices . I personally like to have a written menu with prices so I have the time to make my own decisions and it is nice when kids are welcomed with crayons to draw but anyway we appreciated that they brought them water in a cup. There is definitely room for improvement and we'll try another Mexican restaurant next time."

"Delicious food!! We were seated immediately and served high quality taste with not much wait. I highly recommend for good quality Mexican food!!"
