Great food. I like the chimney chunga (Fried burrito). So tasty
Delicious mexican food!
The chile verde and Serrano chicken are our go-to dishes, and they’re always 🔥! And let’s not forget the classic margarita it’s a must . We love the homey vibes and warm, family-friendly atmosphere. Parking can be a little tricky, but there’s plenty of street parking just across the street on Bonita St. Definitely one of our favorite spots.

Carmelita's Méxican Restaurant has been a local favorite for 60 years, offering delicious and authentic Mexican cuisine in a charming colonial-style building that gives a true Mexican flare. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it a great spot for casual meals or special occasions. The staff is very friendly and attentive, greeting guests quickly and ensuring beverages are refilled and plates are cleared promptly. Customers are welcomed with chips, salsa, bean dip, and water upon seating, and the food arrives quickly with consistent freshness and flavor. Popular dishes include steak salad, sweet corn cakes, fajitas, and big portions of homemade-style cooking, often served with hearty pozole and homemade enchilada sauce. The margaritas are highly recommended, perfectly mixed and very refreshing. The restaurant is clean, well-laid out, and the staff is always nice. Customers enjoy the carnitas plate, which is almost too much to finish but delicious. While parking can be challenging, especially for those who need handicapped spots, the friendly service, great atmosphere, and quality food make Carmelita's a top choice for authentic Mexican dining.
