Carmelita's offers an amazing location with ocean views, though the drinks can be expensive. The food is highly praised, especially the fish tacos which are considered the best. While the churros are basic, the overall dining experience is excellent, with attentive service and fair prices. The enchilada short rib is a particularly delicious dish, and the outdoor seating adds to the pleasant atmosphere.
The restaurant is in good condition, but some minor improvements are needed, such as painting the bathroom doors. Customers recommend the tuna tartar, chicken nachos, guacamole, and spicy mango margarita. The Birria tacos and Caritas tacos have also received excellent reviews. The service is exceptional, with staff like Omar and Javier providing attentive and friendly service, contributing to the overall excellent experience.
