This place is awesome! My burrito was super loaded with carne asada, som much so that I struggled to finish it and I can eat. Little hole in the wall place I might not have noticed if I wasn't next door for something, but quite glad I did.

A gem! Portions are great size, ton of vegetarian / vegan options (major plus!!), friendly service, close to the beach, and great prices. Had the cheese and jalapeño tamale and soyrizo and potato enchiladas

10/10 Recommend!!!! Listen up, I’m from out of town, and where I come from we don’t have tacos like this, I’ve been to California and Arizona numerous times and when I say all I get is tacos and burritos I mean it. Taco Stand line was out the door, so decided to up the block and check out Don Carlos. You look at menu and rows of AWARDS!! By far the biggest “street tacos” I have ever eaten in my life. Small shop, good people, better food!!!
