El Carmen offers a wonderful dining experience from start to finish. The service is excellent, with friendly and attentive staff ensuring a great experience. The vibrant Lucha Libre-themed decor creates a lively and fun atmosphere, making it perfect for a night out. The food is deliciously authentic, with standout dishes like tacos, especially the mushroom, shrimp, and beef tacos, as well as nachos and red sauce chicken enchiladas. Chips and guacamole are always fresh and tasty, and the margaritas are considered some of the best in the city, especially during happy hour. While parking can be a challenge, valet service is available. Overall, El Carmen is a great spot for a meal, with flavorful food and drinks at affordable prices.
