What can I say about Carolina's Cantina...it's truly exceptional! First, it stands out as the ultimate destination for travelers seeking mouth-watering meals and refreshing drinks en route to or from Tahoe. The 45-minute drive to this charming eatery is well worth it. I'm particularly fond of their Pasta Mexicana and Camerones Felipe, expertly paired with a Mango Habanero Margarita. The generous servings and reasonable prices only add to its appeal. The staff's warm hospitality ensures a seamless dining experience, with prompt service and talented bartenders crafting top-notch drinks. Kudos to Itzy and the entire team for setting the standard. Do yourself a favor and stop by – you're sure to be impressed.

The food was fantastic and the service was excellent. The manager came to our table to see how everything went. She was very attentive and accommodating. She even bought desserts for our birthday girls. It wasn’t as pricey as we had read online. Would definitely go there again.

We went to Carolina's for Valentines Day (and have come many times before). They had some delicious sounding specials, but we chose some other favorites from the regular menu. Our server, Molly, made us feel welcome and was very attentive throughout our meal. Kim also stopped by to chat and make sure we had everything we needed and were having a nice evening. Carolina's is a real gem with delicious food and fun drinks, and a treasure for Placerville locals and visitors alike.

Food was fare at best, not even hot. I know it was crowded, But for the prices, they need to do a lot better. And our waitress was terrible. We won't be back
Went to go here was told it was going to be a little wait. Waited an hour and 10 minutes. Was told our table was ready went outside to get our party and came back in and was told our table has been given a way. We overheard the table say that they are friends with owners and they always get a table. We were told that there isn't a table for us and we can leave now. We stopped going here before because food and the service was bad and decided to give it another try.

Went for dinner for a party of four.
My wife ordered a glass of Lava Cap Chardonnay and was served one that was discolored and smelled like vinegar. It was replaced with a fresh glass, but how that ever left the bar to be served is beyond me.
Her chili relleno and fish taco were very good. However, my carne asada tacos had beef that was overdone to the point of being dry, chewy and bland.
While the rice and beans were good and it seems they don’t just microwave everything like the previous iteration of this restaurant, their execution is rather inconsistent.
