“First time here. We wanted something light to eat and it did not disappoint. The ambience is nice and relaxing, the service - top notch. Never ran out of a carafe of water. We had the chips - fresh and warm (a little salt to it would have made them perfect but again- they were great) queso no complaints. Shrimp tacos and al pastor tacos. We were amazed with the amount of filling in all of them. Maybe the pineapple in the Al pastor could have been diced instead of one big piece. - just nitpicking here. We would come back again for sure. Pineapple smash was the drink and it was very tasty”
“Very cozy and cute atmosphere. Very easy-going. Not over the board but very comforting and welcoming. Staff were super nice and courteous. Food was excellent. Will definitely recommend for every day dine out.”
“Dinner with so the grown kids was very accommodating and has something everyone liked. Solid food and service. Hibiscus margarita was fragrant and tasty.”
“Carla's was good! Came in before a show and was seated right away. Staff is light here so they come by to check on all the tables near you. Service feels a little more like counter service than a dedicated waiter. Food was very tasty -- not too much in quantity where you feel bloated or overfull. I recommend everything we got, the burrito the chicken burger -- all was tasty. The atmosphere was good but the upstairs section could have used better acoustics cause I heard everything the tables around us were saying.”
“We were a group of two people who came for lunch. We ordered two drinks including Aperol spiritze and Pineapple smash, Chips and Guacamole for the appetizer, fish taco and beef taco for our lunch. The Guacamole was fresh, well prepared and blended but the portion was too small compared to the volume of chips served. When we asked the waiter if we can have mixed taco such as one fish and one beef, our request was rejected. Therefore we ordered fish taco (came with two pieces each order) and beef taco. Both are okay and not impressive. By the time when we almost finished our tacos, we saw waiter chatted with the bar tender but our two cocktails were still not being served or made. We had to raise our hands and asked the waiter if they still wanted to serve our cocktails… Overall, it was a simple lunch place and nothing good to be mentioned about here…”
