“I stopped by just before midnight after a long shift at work and ordered two spicy soft potato tacos and one Doritos Locos Taco. Honestly, this was the hottest, freshest, and best Taco Bell I’ve had in a long time~ it was so good. I just had to leave this review… Late-night fast food is usually hit or miss, but this was definitely a hit. Thank you to the team working tonight! Hope this location keeps it up. :))“

“Best taqueria I have had the pleasure of eating at in this area. We moved from Phoenix and have searched for good tacos. Panchito was great, the owners were very friendly.“

“Generous portions, perfectly cooked shrimp, and flavors that hit every note, pure magic! This restaurant is my mom's favorite (she and her bestie are regulars), and I was lucky enough to catch them before they left so I could place a to-go order. My go-to test at any Mexican restaurant is the Camarones al Mojo de Ajo (garlic butter shrimp), and I was thrilled to see it on the menu here. Ordering takeout is always a gamble since you're not at the restaurant if something isn't right but I believe quality should be consistent whether dining in or taking food to go. Thankfully, this place delivered in every way. The shrimp were succulent, large, not skimpy, and cooked perfectly. The garlic butter was rich and flavorful without being overpowering, and the sautéed onions balanced it all out. Even the refried beans stood out (something many places surprisingly get wrong). The rice was fairly standard...on the drier side but when mixed with the beans and that delicious garlic butter from the shrimp, it turned into a whole new level of flavor. That's how I made my burritos (that's how I eat this plate, I have to wrap it all up in a flour tortilla. Let me tell you, it was absolute magic! Portions were generous, I could tell the meal was thoughtfully prepared, and every bite was pure satisfaction. The only downside was the styrofoam packaging (I'm not a fan of that), but it didn't take away from how incredible the food itself was. This restaurant easily earns my seal of approval. I'll definitely be ordering from here again because when I say the food was amazing with a capital A, I mean it!“

“Great!! Dined here about 6 times so far. Fast pleasent service. Food orders made well, fast & consistent. Staff always cleaning wiping up & restocking. Love the birria tacos, enchiladas, beans rice.“

“I always feel like I was in Mexico!“

“First and foremost, the customer service is amazing. thanks to Jenny that she takes care of everything with a genuine smile. She Special .!!! food was great, aguas frescas ( melon ) was delicious and the right amount of sweetness. I'm definitely going to be a regular at this place. !!!“

“Excellent service too!!!!“

“First time great food from out of town enjoyed it.“

“First time diners, Fajitas were outstanding and could be shared by folks with smaller appetite. Taquitos combo was also delicious with a little spicy kick. Dined on late Sunday afternoon not crowded, someone was sing Karaoke, which was a little bit louder than necessary. Restaurant was clean. The staff was attentive and friendly, will come back“

“I'm surprised this place isn't more popular, everything was incredible! The Sopa Puerto Escondido was fresh and well-cooked, all of the seafood being delicately and skillfully cooked. Nothing was under or overcooked, which is very easy to do with seafood. The tomato broth was flavorful and rich. The whole dish was well-portioned and fulfilling. Carmen was an absolute angel and very comforting. She informed us of all of their vegetarian options, and had some great recommendations. Will be coming here again!

Vegetarian options: There is an option to substitute any meat dish with vegetarian options

Dietary restrictions: There are gluten free and vegan options

Parking: There is parking behind and on the side of the building, shared with 2 other businesses

“I enjoyed eating here when I lived in the area and it was nice to stop by for a hungry bite again. They have a next level salsa bar and their plates are generously portioned. Prices have gone up noticeably since I last came here to enjoy some Mexican food. It's not quite the value that it was. Their plates used to be $13.99 and that's gone up to $17 for comparison. That said, they offer overall quality food.“

“Fantastic food, great food match wine/sake list (and a sake sommelier) fi you are an oyster, sushi, ceviche fan, this is the spot.“

“Amazing food! Best tacos in Sacramento. Owner Shane was really great to speak with. He and his food exude passion. You must try The Char Market! 🌮“

“We've been going to Centro since the night it opened and Timothy Busfield was making margaritas in the bar! It never disappoints; food is delicious, dishes evolve with the times and the seasons, service is excellent and friendly, and the vibe and ambience is fun. We always have an enjoyable time.“

“Delicious enchiladas and great vegetarian options. Absolutely must go for tasty & fresh salsa and chips!“

“Delicious and authentic food!“

“My wife and I had lunch there today. Excellent as usual. Have been coming here for 20+ years. Always good. Live in Grass Valley, when ever in the area and hungry, it’s Jalisco’s !“

“Me encantan tantas cosas que he probado .. pero hasta ahora el taquito de cabeza y las tripitas están de lo más sabrosas acompañadas de un buen jarrito con su tequila 💐“

“Michelle our waitress was amazing super helpful friendly, everything was dished out with a smile! Rockstar!!“

“The ratings do this place justice. It is tried, tested, and well deserved. Even my spanish friends who barely speak english know of it and highly recommend it and it's regarded as the best Mexican food restaurant in the greater Sacramento area by a lot of people that I know. I only go for the food but they have a full bar and lot's of tv's. The food is the best part, as it should be in any restaurant; it's why we go. It's taco truck level quality with the whole restaurant experience and when I say taco truck quality food I mean that level of quality you'd expect from a single person who's worked on the same equipment for decades. It's clean, has bathrooms, really nice employees and that special mucho beuno absolutely bomb food. The menu is huge! And honestly, the bigger and more complex menu a restaurant has, typically, the lower quality food you'll find there but this place is the exception to that rule. Go there, try it, and then you'll know.

Parking: Plenty of parking although I wouldn't be surprised if the lot was full seeing how good this place is. If so, easily park on the other side of northgate.

Wheelchair accessibility: I can't see why a wheelchair user couldn't get to it. Wide open and level, flat sidewalk out front.“

“I ordered a chicken wet burrito and they did not disappoint! All the ingredients were fresh and I definitely went to flavor town!! The staff is really kind and that makes me want to come back again. The atmosphere was giving sitting on your patio enjoying life. I give this place a 10/10!!“

“Shrimp tostadas are delicious, all the food that I have tried is very good 😊 I recommend the quesabirrias too.“

“a delight to the mouth and stomach. highly recommend, need to get y'all some New Mexican Hatch Chile!“

“best ever, people, food, patio.“

“The food and service here are fantastic! Everything is packed with flavor, and I always enjoy coming back. My only note is that if you’re expecting a typical super burrito size, it’s a bit smaller than you might anticipate. For the price, I wish it were a bit more filled. Still, a great spot overall!“

“Last week I went to OMG Cocina because I was craving some Mexican food, and wow—what a delightful surprise! I walked in expecting to grab some tacos, but when I spotted black pozole on the specials board, I just had to try it (I’m a huge pozole fan!). I usually stick to red pozole, so this was a totally new adventure for my taste buds. From the very first spoonful to the last, I was grinning—the rich flavors, the perfect blend of spices, and that incredible mix of roasted peppers with a hint of citrus had my taste buds dancing with joy. Absolutely delicious! I’ll definitely be going back, and I can’t wait to explore the rest of their menu!“

“Great food.. my mother enjoyed her meal.. thank You“

The ambiance is warm and inviting, making it a great spot for both casual meals and special occasions. The menu is extensive, featuring everything from classic tacos and enchiladas to more unique dishes that showcase the richness of Mexican cuisine.

The food is consistently delicious, with fresh ingredients and well-balanced flavors. The margaritas are a standout, perfectly mixed and refreshing. Service is generally attentive and friendly for the most part, though it can be a bit slow during peak hours.

Overall, Carmelita's delivers on taste and atmosphere, making it a solid choice for anyone craving quality Mexican food. A few small improvements in service would easily make this a 5-star experience.

“One of my go to's for lunch and the go to spot for taco Tuesday. This place has it all, indoor/ outdoor seating, quick service, large portion sizes and most importantly delicious food that never disappoints.
No matter what l've tried on their menu, plate always end ups cleaned as if it never had anything on the plate in the first place. Definitely give it a try if you're looking for great Mexican food.“
